Publication PN 09-05-0003-00 (c) 2006 Digital Wireless Corporation Version -03 01 JUL 06 File: DM-3010 Mobile Manual.lwp Page iii DM-3010 Mobile Radio Transceiver- Instruction Manual 1 General Overview The DM-3010 Digital Transceiver is a narrowband mobile transceiver specifically designed for DV/IP format digital transmissions used on the i2way Network. The radio receives and transmits i2way Network signals containing audio (voice), text and control data. i2way Network signals contain call control information, streaming digital voice and customer payload data. i2way format stations do not respond to or “hear” analog transmissions, or any other “foreign” form of digital transmission. The DM-3010 Digital Transceiver is available in various models that cover the 138-520 MHz bands. The radio receives and transmits data at 10,000 bps using four level frequency shift keying (“4FSK”) in 12.5 kHz spaced channels and at 5,000 bps in 6.25 kHz spaced channels. The radio’s construction is modular, and may be field-repaired by a factory-certified technician by replacing plug-in modules. It may be configured in single channel “conventional” or multi-channel “trunked” modes. Multi-channel systems are typically trunked, with one channel operating as the “control channel” and the remaining channels as “transaction channels”. This manual details the version for 12.5 kHz and 6.25 kHz spaced channels in the 406-470 MHz bands. This radio may be used in international service down to 380 MHz. 2 Installation The DM-3010 radio is designed to be installed either in a vehicle, in a railroad locomotive or indoors. It is has no moving parts or switch contacts. 2.1 Unpacking after Shipment Receipt The station is normally shipped in a cardboard carton protected in a plastic suspension mount. The unit is ready-to-operate, and generally the only included accessories are the microphone, loudspeaker and cables. Do not apply power to the radio unless a suitable antenna or load is connected to the transmitter output. In the United States and Canada this radio requires a suitable FCC or Industry Canada license to operate. Publication PN 09-05-0003-01 ©2007 Digital Wireless Corporation Version -04 24 JAN 07 Page 1 DM-3010 Mobile Radio Transceiver- Instruction Manual 2.2 Mounting The radio is intended to be installed either with the transceiver unit mounted in a vehicle trunk, under a seat or in any other convenient, protected location, and the radio’s “control head” (control panel) unit mounted in a location accessible to the operator. Two different brackets are available to facilitate mounting of the control head, an adjustable angle trunion mount and a flush-mounting bracket. The loudspeaker, which mounts on its own trunion mount, should be installed in a location where the front of the speaker faces towards the operator without any obstructions. The transceiver may be secured to any surface using four self-tapping screws. Mount the transceiver in a location where it is protected from the weather and dirt. Reasonable air flow around the heat sink fins should be provided. Normally the unit does not get hot, however after extensive transmitting, or under unusual conditions, the heat sink fins of the radio may get warm or hot and care should be taken to prevent accidental exposure to human skin. Optional rubber shock mounts are available to assist in mounting the radio in locations that present extreme shock and vibration. 2.3 DC Power Connection The radio is intended to be powered from normal “12 volt” vehicle power systems. Such 12 volt systems actually operate normally between 12 and 15 volts. The red and black “zip cord” power cable should normally be connected directly across the a vehicle battery. The provided in-line fuse should be installed in the positive (RED) lead as close to the battery as possible in order to protect the cable from accidental shorts. In locomotive applications an external 72 volt to 12 volt power convertor rated at a minimum of 10 amps continuous is required. The power cable should be installed in the vehicle in such as way that it is not liable to accidentally be shorted to ground. It is advisable to shield the power cable where possible with “split loom” or other form of durable cable protection. Where the power cable passes through the firewall or any other metal bulkhead or bracket, ensure that proper grommets or other insulation protection devices are used to prevent rubbing and chafing of the insulation against sharp metal edges, which can cause shorts. If the vehicle’s power supply is suspected of “alternator whine” or other power problems, a 10 amp DC line filter should be installed, close to the battery.

The nominal operating temperature is +25° C ±3° C (77° F ±5° F). Please consult the factory for installation assistance in environments that vary from these parameters. The radio can be operated with a relative humidity of less than 95% at altitudes below 10,000 feet above sea level. Storage temperature range (unpowered) is from -40° C and +70° C. 2.7 Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy The DM-1000 Digital Transceiver is a “mobile radio” and is intended to have its antenna properly installed externally on a vehicle where the center of radiation (the antenna) when transmitting does not cause human exposure beyond safe limits. During installation planning, care should be taken to research and understand relevant government radiation regulations and to ensure that the final installation will meet such regulations. Since every installation is unique, radiation safety is beyond the scope of this manual. Transmit only when people inside and outside the vehicle are at least the minimum distance away from a properly installed, externally-mounted antenna. When the radio is not transmitting, no non-ionizing radio frequency electromagnetic energy are being radiated. 2.8 Mandatory Safety Instructions to Installers The minimum safe distance from a person(s) to the antenna when this radio is transmitting is at least 41 inches or 1 meter. The Federal Communications Commission has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to RF (Radio Frequency) energy, which is below OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Act) limits. Antenna Minimum Safe Distance: 41 inches or 1.0 meter Antenna Gain: 2.5 dBi maximum. Antenna Mounting: The antenna should be a fixed-mounted, properly installed, externally-mounted antenna with a minimum safe distance (when transmitting) for general Population/Uncontrolled Exposure of at least 41 inches or 1 meter. Publication PN 09-05-0003-01 ©2007 Digital Wireless Corporation Version -04 24 JAN 07 Page 4 DM-3010 Mobile Radio Transceiver- Instruction Manual Warning: Maintain a separation distance from the antenna to a person(s) of at least 41 inches (when transmitting) for general Population / Uncontrolled Exposure. The operation of this transmitter must satisfy the requirements of Occupational/Controlled Exposure Environment, for work-related use. Transmit only when person(s) are at least the minimum distance from the properly installed, externally mounted antenna. The best location for an antenna is in the center of a large, flat, conductive metal area. In many vehicles, this requirement is satisfied by mounting the antenna in the center of the roof. If the trunk lid is used, connect suitable grounding straps between the trunk lid and the vehicle chassis to ensure that the trunk lid is a chassis ground. 2.9 Operational Warnings 2.9.1 Vehicles with Air Bags Do not install this radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force with no warning. If this radio is place in the deployment area and the air bag inflates, the radio may be projected with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle Installation in vehicles with air bags should be performed by a installer/technician qualified in the requirements of such installations. Contact the vehicle’s manufacturer for specific air bag information and requirements for your specific make, model of vehicle and configuration. 2.9.2 Explosive Atmospheres Turn off your two-way radio when you are in an area with potentially explosive atmosphere. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. 2.9.3 Blasting Areas Publication PN 09-05-0003-01 ©2007 Digital Wireless Corporation Version -04 24 JAN 07 Page 5 DM-3010 Mobile Radio Transceiver- Instruction Manual To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”, near a blasting area or near electrical blasting caps. Obey all signs and instructions. 2.9.4 Installation damage to critical vehicle components Care must be taken when installing this radio to not damage critical vehicle systems including wiring, vacuum hoses and other systems. Screws installed through vehicle panels may puncture, pierce or otherwise damage wiring, hoses and other systems. If not properly installed, screws holding the radio may become loose and break free on collision or upon any impact. 2.10 Turning on the Radio Power The radio should not be connected to a DC power source unless all of the components provides are connected (control head, loudspeaker, microphone). The power switch is located in the top left hand corner of the control head/front panel. The radio should not be powered unless all of the components are connected. When radio power is applied and the radio is “powered on”, care must be taken to not depress the push to talk transmit button on microphone unless a suitable 50 ohm antenna load is attached to the transmitter output “mini UHF” connector on the rear panel. If the load is an antenna, do not cause the radio to transmit unless the minimum safe distance to humans is maintained. 2.11 Mobile Antenna System This radio needs an external antenna system, which should be any suitable style of antenna with a gain of no more that 2.5 dB and an impedance of 50 ohms at the operating frequencies. This antenna should be properly installed in an appropriate location externally on the vehicle. The antenna should be located in such a position so that it may not be touched by a person when transmitting, or the antenna should be fully insulated. The antenna should not be mounted near ladders, light bars or any other object which may affect or degrade its performance. 2.12 GPS Antenna This radio utilizes a GPS antenna. The GPS antenna must be of a type approved by the factory for use with the DM-3010 mobile radio. The GPS antenna is for receive only and presents no radio frequency emission hazard.

Publication PN 09-05-0003-01 ©2007 Digital Wireless Corporation Version -04 24 JAN 07 Page 9 DM-3010 Mobile Radio Transceiver- Instruction Manual 5 Control Station Installation The DM-3010 mobile transceiver may be used as a fixed-mounted “control station” in a building. It may be powered from a suitable AC power supply which provides 12.2 to 15 volts at 10 amps. A factory-built desktop power supply is available from Digital Wireless which provides suitable mounting for the radio’s transceiver and control head and provides the necessary AC power supply as well as a standby battery. A 19 inch wide rack-mounting version is also available which also provides connections for Digital Wireless-provided “local remote” telephone-style desksets and an enhanced desktop dispatch console. 5.1 Fixed Antenna When the radio is installed indoors, a suitable outdoor antenna must be utilized. The antenna should be installed outside the building in such a location as to comply with the minimum spacing requirements as specified in paragraph 2 of this manual. When used as a control station or for other fixed usage, the relevant regulatory effective radiated power (ERP) regulations much be consulted in order to select the correct type of antenna, transmission line and installation location in order to comply with regulations concerning radio frequency emissions exposure. 5.2 Transmission Line When a transmission line (antenna cable) is used to connect to an external antenna mounted on a roof, external pole or tower, suitable grounding must be provided where the cable enters the building and close to the radio. Extreme caution must be used to ensure that the antenna does not come in contact with power lines. It is also recommended that a suitable lightning protection device be installed in the transmission line and connected to a suitable ground connection. A suitable ground connection is generally a purpose-installed ground rod driven into the earth and not the neutral or ground wire of a building’s electrical wiring.
