Default EchoLink Interface

I'm building an EchoLink interface and one of the signals to the
tranceiver is COR.
What does COR stand for please?
I have no reference to COR in my Kenwood TS2000 manual. I suspect it
may have something to do with squelch.
Thanks.
Howard.



COR = Carrier Operated Relay
A signal used in a repeater to indicate that a carrier is being received.
Used to be a common signal in old tube-type equipment, where the receiver
and transmitters were controlled by relays. Modern solid-state equipment
doesn't have a COR signal... it's usually a logic-level signal from the
squelch circuit that indicates that the receiver has detected a carrier.
