GENERAL INFORMATION
Midians VPU-12A voice inversion scrambler provides an entry level of voice security for two-way radio
communications. The VPU-12A provides up to 16 different inversion frequencies that are selectable using 4-line
binary. These inversion frequencies are programmable using Midians KL-3. The VPU-12A is compatible with
Midians VPU-12, but adds the benefit of mode indications.
PRODUCT PROGRAMMING
The VPU-12A comes preprogrammed with default inversion frequencies (see Table 1 below). By configuring the
4-line binary outputs, the desired inversion frequency can be selected. Other default features are a Power-Up
State of Clear, a Mode Select of Momentary and a Mode Polarity of Active Low. If different parameters are
needed, the KL-4 programming interface and MPS programming software will be needed.

The VPU-12A is programmed using the KL-4 programming interface and MPS programming software. Please
reference the KL-4 manual for setup of the programming hardware and software.
Set the parameters of the software to fit the application. If any clarifications on a feature are required, move the
mouse cursor over the feature name until the question mark appears and right click, a definition of the feature will
be shown.
After entering the parameters, save the file by going to File - Save As. Enter the file name in the File Name block
and click Save. Saving the file will allow for quick and easy reprogramming of units.
KL-4 Programming: Plug the board onto the KL-4 connector labeled as P4. Push and hold the power button
on the KL-4 and click Program Unit in the MPS software. The ACK LED on the KL-4 will faintly flash if
programmed successfully.
KL-4 Reading: Plug the board onto the KL-4 connector labeled as P4. Push and hold the power button on the
KL-4 and click Read Unit in the MPS software.
Switch Mode: Select whether the switch being used for mode selection is a momentary or latched switch.
Power Up State: Select the mode you wish the scrambler to go into upon power up.
Clr/Scr Polarity: If +/- is selected then the clear mode will be a positive polarity and scramble mode will be a
negative polarity. If -/+ is selected then the clear mode will be a negative polarity and scramble mode will be a
positive polarity.
Code 1-16: Set the desired inversion frequency for each code position. The table on the previous page shows
which code is selected based upon which 4-line binary inputs are selected. If only one code is being used,
program that code in Code 16 and do not connect any of the 4-line binary inputs.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Be certain to follow standard anti-static procedures when handling any of Midians products.
P1-4 Black Ground Connect to the nearest ground point.
P1-2 Red - +3.7 15 VDC Connect to switched B+ in the radio.
P1-6 Orange RX Input Connect after the CTCSS high-pass filter in radios using CTCSS or DCS. Failure to
do so will cause the CTCSS to be inverted from a low to a high frequency. Other signaling tones that might be
used on the system should be decoded before the scrambler input. The audio path should be broken with this
lead connected to the break point closest to the discriminator.
P1-13 Violet RX Output Connect to the break point described in the RX Input on the side closest to the
speaker.
P1-9 White TX Input Connect to the radio modulator circuit before the insertion point for CTCSS or other
tone signaling. The audio path is broken and this lead is connected to the break point closest to the microphone.
P1-1 Green TX Output Connect to the break point described in TX Input on the side closest to the
modulator.
P1-7 Yellow PTT Input Selection of the RX or TX path is provided via this lead. A ground from the PTT
switch will select TX & releasing the ground will select RX.
P1-3 Brown Mode Input/Program Out Connect to a momentary or latched switch for selection of scramble
or clear modes. For program out, connect this lead to the yellow clip lead from the KL-3.
P1-5 Blue Program In Connect this wire to the green clip lead from the KL-3.
P1-8 Green/White Frequency Select A Frequency select A, B, C and D are used to determine the selected
inversion frequency (see Table 1 above).
P1-10 Gray/White Frequency Select B Frequency select A, B, C and D are used to determine the selected
inversion frequency (see Table 1 above).
P1-11 Gray Frequency Select C or Mode LED Frequency select A, B, C and D are used to determine the
selected inversion frequency (see Table 1 above).
When used for Mode LED install R-34 and remove D4. Connect this wire to the cathode of the LED and connect
the anode of the LED to V+. The Mode LED output provides an active low.
P1-12 Orange/White Frequency Select D or Audio Enable Frequency select A, B, C and D are used to
determine the selected inversion frequency (see Table 1 above).
When used for Audio Enable install R-36 and remove D-3. Connect this wire to a point in the radio that when
grounded turns on the audio amplifier.
Mode LED: If the frequency select lines are being used for inversion frequency selection, the Mode LED hole can
have a wire added. Connect this wire to the cathode of the LED and connect the anode of the LED to V+. The
Mode LED output provides an active low.
Audio Enable: If the frequency select lines are being used for inversion frequency selection the Audio Enable
hole can have a wire added. Connect this wire to a point in the radio that when grounded turns on the audio
amplifier.
RADIO PROGRAMMING
The VPU-12A is a generic module that wires into most radios. Any radio specific programming, if available, would
be found on any Application Notes available for those radios. You may visit our website or call us for application
notes.
HARDWARE ALIGNMENT
The VPU-12A is a unity gain device. If for some reason more or less gain is needed adjust R-2, R-12, R-18 or R19 as needed. For the TX Input, Midian recommends having 1 V p-p at Pin 1 of IC-5. Adjusting R-2 will adjust the
level at Pin 1 of IC-5.
For the RX Input, Midian recommends having 1 V p-p at Pin 7 of IC-5. Adjusting R-12 will adjust the level at Pin 7
of IC-5.
For the TX Output, Midian recommends matching the level of the radio that is present at the TX Input (P1-9).
For the RX Output, Midian recommends matching the level of the radio that is present at the RX Input (P1-6).
OPERATION
Mode Selection: The mode of the VPU-12A can be controlled by a momentary or latched switch.
Latched Switch: Programming the VPU-12A to latched with a Mode Polarity of +/- will cause the scrambler to
be in clear mode when high and scramble mode when taken to ground. A Mode Polarity of -/+ will cause the
scrambler to be in clear mode when taken to ground and scramble mode when high.
Momentary Switch: Programming the VPU-12A to momentary with a Mode Polarity of +/- will cause the
scrambler to toggle modes when taken to ground. A Mode Polarity of -/+ will cause the scrambler to toggle
modes when taken high.
Code Selection:
Single Code: If only a single inversion frequency is desired connect the frequency select lines to ground as
indicated in Table 1 above. Otherwise if no frequency select lines are grounded code 16 will be selected.
Multi-Code: The VPU-12A has a 4-line binary input that can be used to select from 16 different inversion
frequencies (see Table 1 above).
TECHNICAL NOTES
Pre-emphasis/De-emphasis: The scrambler should be installed before pre-emphasis and after de-emphasis.
If installed after pre-emphasis and before de-emphasis, the recovered audio may be noisier due to the
amplification of the noise.
If installed before pre-emphasis and before de-emphasis, recovered audio will be de-emphasized (bassy).
If installed after pre-emphasis and after de-emphasis, recovered audio is pre-emphasized (tinny).
