General description:
The QV430P programming cradle is a convenient means of making the necessary connections to
program and test Quadravox ISD-based playback modules. Used in conjunction with the
QV300s2 software, it enables your PC to manage projects, program the ISD devices with desired
phrases, audition the sound quality, and monitor RS232 traffic with the module. The actual
recording algorithm is present in every QV3xx module; the 430P is a “dumb” adapter for electrical
and logical connections.
Connections:
DB9F - RS232: The RS232 connection to your PC is made with a straight-through m-f cable as
used for modems. The connection uses only the RXD and TXD pins. Level conversion is provided
by the MAX232 level shifter.
Module Connector 1: The IDC header is the connection point for QV301 series modules. A short
cable is provided. Please note that for ease of connection the QV301 module is inverted relative
to the 430P.
Module Connector 2: A two row socket is used for strength, but only one row is needed to
connect to the QV306m4 module. Both rows are electrically active so it does not matter which
you use. ONLY ONE module should be used with the 430P at any one time.
Power (9VDC): The power connector is a standard barrel jack with 2.1mm diameter pin. The
center pin is positive. The supply voltage can be as low as 6.5V when programming the QV306,
QV301m1, and QV301m4 modules- a common 9V supply is suggested. For the QV301m2 and
m3, a 12V regulated supply is preferred. Please note that while any supply from 6.5V to 18V
(max) can be used for these modules, the quality of the sound during recording will depend on
the ripple in the supply. The recording itself will be free of hum regardless.
Sound card line out: A stereo m-m audio cable with 1/8” (3.5mm) phone plug is needed to
connect the input signal to the system. The QV300s2 software places the signal to be recorded
on both the left and right channels so that regardless of your PC’s connection, the signal will be
available.
To 8 ohm speaker: a 1/8” phone plug equipped speaker is required to monitor recording and
playback. The jack functions only for the QV306 series; the speaker must be connected directly to
the board’s jack for the QV301 modules.
