1.8 REPLACEMENT PARTS
This product is not field serviceable, except by the replacement of complete units. Specialized
equipment and training is required to repair logic boards and radio modules.
1.9 IF A PROBLEM ARISES...
Component level repair is not recommended on the TSLM. DRL’s factory is best equipped
to diagnose problems and make component level repairs. Contact Technical Service before
returning equipment. A service technician may suggest a solution eliminating the need to
return equipment.
1.9.1 FACTORY REPAIR
Dataradio products are designed for long life and failure-free operation. If a problem arises,
factory service is available. Contact the Technical Service Department before returning
equipment.
A Return Material Authorization (RMA) is required when returning equipment to Dataradio for
repair. Contact the Technical Service Department at 1-800-992-7774 or 1-507-833-8819
(extension 6707) to request an RMA number. RMA’s are available through our website at
www.dataradio.com/ products_tech_adv.html. Be prepared to give the equipment model and
serial number, your account number (if known), and billing and shipping addresses.
Include the RMA number, a complete description of the problem, and the name and phone
number of a contact person with the returned units. This information is important. The
technician may have questions that need to be answered to identify the problem and repair the
equipment. The RMA number helps locate your equipment in the repair lab if there is a need to
contact Dataradio concerning the equipment.
Units sent in for repair will be returned to the customer re-tuned to the current Dataradio Test
and Tune Procedure and will conform to all specifications noted in this section
Customers are responsible for shipping charges (to Dataradio) for returned units in warranty.
Units in warranty are repaired free of charge unless there is evidence of abuse or damage
beyond the terms of the warranty. Dataradio covers return shipping costs for equipment
repaired while under warranty.
Units out of warranty are subject to repair service charges. Customers are responsible for
shipping charges (to and from Dataradio) on units out of warranty. Return shipping instructions
are the responsibility of the customer.
1.10 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
1.10.1 PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
The TSLM consists of a logic printed circuit board (PCB) (which includes the modem circuitry)
and a separate radio module. The two boards plug directly together, attach to a front panel and
slide into a sheet metal case. The front panel includes a DE-15 data connector, a BNC antenna
connector and two LED indicators. Power connections are made through the DE-15 data
connector. The unit is not hermetically sealed and should be mounted in a suitable enclosure
where dust and/or a corrosive atmosphere are anticipated. There are no external switches or
adjustments. Operating parameters are set using software.

2.4 CHANNEL SELECTION
Channel frequencies for 8 channels are programmed using the TSLM Field Programming
Software (FPS). Once programmed, the current operating channel may be selected either by:
1.Utilizing hardware jumpers By strapping connections on the Data Port Connector. There is a
10k ohm pull up resistor on each line (CS0 to CS2) (refer to Table 2-5) or making changes with
the TSLM Field Programming Software:
2.By selecting the channel from the TSLM FPS Offline Diagnostics feature.

2.5 TSLM FIELD PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE
The TSLM Field Programming Software provides programming and diagnostics for the
Dataradio TSLM wireless modem. The Field Programming Software allows the user to edit and
program user programmable settings, interactively tune modem and RF parameters, and monitor
diagnostic data from the TSLM.
The PTT Watchdog allows the user to set the maximum transmit time. This is used to protect
against a ‘stuck’ transmitter. The time is selected by a slider bar. The range is 0 to 120 seconds
with a default of 30 seconds.

RF Exposure Compliance Requirements
TSLM VHF Wireless Modem
FCC Rule:
1.1307, 1.1310, 2.1091 (b) (d), 2.1093
Description of Compliance:
The TSLM will be professionally installed in the SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data
Acquisition) market and will be mounted with a fixed RTU (Remote Terminal Unit). A
typical installation would use a maximum gain antenna of 10 dBi mounted on a tower. A
minimum separation distance of more than 141 cm must be maintained between the
radiating structure and any person to classify as a mobile under FCC MPE regulations.
Note: It is the responsibility of the user to guarantee compliance with the FCC
MPE regulations when operating this device in a way other than described above.
