This radio is designed for and classified as WARNING “Occupational Use Only,” meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment. PI The P7100 portable radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only.” In addition, this M/A-COM radio complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans: · FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields. · American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. · American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave. CAUTION To ensure that exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines: · DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause the FCC RF exposure limits to be exceeded. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by M/A-COM or an antenna specifically authorized by M/A-COM for use with this radio. · DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX” indicator appears in the display. The radio will transmit by pressing the “PTT” button. · ALWAYS use M/A-COM authorized accessories (antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories may cause the FCC Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance requirements to be exceeded. · ALWAYS keep the device and its antenna at least 2 cm (0.8 inches) from the body and at least 5 cm (2 inches) from the face when transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. This radio has been tested for RF exposure compliance at the distances listed in Table 1. However, to provide the recipients of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth, and slightly off to one side. Table 1: RF Exposure Compliance Testing Distances Radio Frequency Tested Distances (worst case scenario) Body Face 800 MHz 1.6 cm 2.5 cm VHF ( MHz) 1.1 cm 2.5 cm The information listed above provides the information needed to make the user aware of a RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC RF exposure limits of this radio. ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY During transmissions, this M/A-COM radio generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites. OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). As an operator of two-way radio equipment, you must be thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to your particular type of radio operation. Following these rules will help eliminate confusion and will assure the most efficient use of existing radio channels. This will provide a smooth operating radio network. When using the radio, remember these rules: 1. It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or emergency message. As the radio operates in much the same way as a telephone "party line" when in conventional mode, always listen and/or observe the absence of the “busy” display (refer to Table 2 – Three Line Display for display character) to make sure that the line is clear before sending any messages. If someone is sending an emergency message, such as reporting a fire or asking for help in an accident, KEEP OFF THE AIR! Emergency calls have priority over all other messages. 2. Use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by Federal Law. 3. It is against the law to send false call letters or a false distress or emergency message. 4. The FCC requires that conversations be brief and confined to business. To save time, use coded messages whenever possible. 5. Using the radio to send personal messages (except in an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send only those messages essential for the business operation. 6. It is against Federal Law to repeat or otherwise make known anything overheard on the radio. Conversations between others sharing your channel must be regarded as confidential. OPERATING TIPS Antenna location and condition are important when operating a portable radio. Operating the radio in low lying areas or terrain, under power lines or bridges, inside of a vehicle or in a metal or steel framed building can severely reduce the range of the unit. Mountains can also reduce the range of the unit. In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some improvement may be obtained by ensuring that the antenna is vertical. Moving a few yards in another direction or moving to a higher elevation may also improve communications. Vehicular operation can be aided with the use of an externally mounted antenna. Battery condition is another important factor in the trouble free operation of a portable radio. Always properly charge the batteries. EFFICIENT RADIO OPERATION Hold the portable radio approximately three inches from your mouth and speak into the microphone at a normal voice level. Keep the antenna in a vertical position when receiving or transmitting a message. Do not hold the antenna when receiving a message and, especially, do not hold when transmitting a message. Do NOT hold onto the antenna when transmitting. WARNING Antenna Care and Replacement WARNING WARNING WARNING 10 Always keep the antenna at least 0.8 inches (2 cm.) away from the body and 2 inches (5 cm.) from the face when transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. Do not use the portable radio with a damaged or missing antenna. A minor burn may result if a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin. Replace a damaged antenna immediately. A missing antenna could damage your portable radio. Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the radio unit and may violate FCC regulations. Electronic Devices CAUTION RF energy from your portable radio may affect some electronic equipment. Most modern electronic equipment in cars, hospitals, homes, etc. are shielded from RF energy. However, in areas that instruct you to turn off two-way radio equipment, always observe the rules. If in doubt, turn it off! Aircraft Always turn off your portable radio before boarding any aircraft! · Use it on the ground only with crew permission. · DO NOT use while in-flight!! WARNING Blasting Areas WARNING To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your radio OFF when in a "blasting area" or in areas posted "turn off two-way radio." Remote control RF devices are used by some construction crews to set off explosives. 11 Potentially Explosive Atmospheres WARNING Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. These may be fueling areas, such as gas stations, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Turn OFF your radio when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but not impossible that the radio or its accessories could generate sparks. 12 BATTERY DISPOSAL IP The P7100 portable radios use rechargeable, recyclable Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) or Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries. NICKEL CADMIUM BATTERY PACK DISPOSAL At the end of its useful life, under various state and local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of the Nickel Cadmium batteries into the municipal waste stream.

FCC ID : OWDTR-0013-E INSTRUCTION BOOK (DRAFT) J725P VHF 1. Receiver Circuit The FM dual-conversion super heterodyne receiver is designed for operation in the 136-174 MHz frequency range. The Receiver has intermediate frequencies (IF) of 115.65MHz and 450kHz. Adjacent channel selectivity is obtained by using two band pass filters, a 115.65MHz crystal filter and a 450kHz ceramic filter. The RX detector is the phase digitizer. 1-1 Receiver Front-end A RF signal from antenna is coupled though the low pass filter/antenna switch, and band pass filter to the input of low noise amplifier Q101. The output of Q101 is coupled through band pass filter to input of 1’st Mixer Z101. Front End selectivity is provided by these band pass filter. 1-2 1’st Mixer The 1’st Mixer is a Double-Balanced-Mixer Z101, that converts a RF signal the 136-174MHz range to 115.65MHz 1’st IF frequency. The signal on the output of Z101 is provided to the input of 1’st IF amplifier Q102. 1-3 1’st IF The 1’st IF signal 115.65MHz from the output of the 1’st Mixer is coupled through 1’st IF amplifier Q102 to Crystal filter FL103. The highly-selective crystal filter FL103 provide the first portion of the receiver IF selectivity. The output of the filter is coupled through the impedance-matching net work to IF Receiver U101. 1-4 2nd Mixer, 2nd IF filter and 2nd IF amplifier IF Receiver U101 is an one-chip IC for digital communication system. It includes 2’nd Mixer, 2’nd IF amplifier and Limiter amplifier. With the internal circuits of U101, The 1’st IF signal is amplified and applied to the input of 2’nd Mixer. The 2’nd local injection frequency 115.2MHz is applied from 2’nd local amplifier Q106 to another input of the 2’nd Mixer. The 2’nd Mixer converts a 1’st IF signal 115.65MHz to 2’nd IF frequency 450KHz. Then the 2’nd IF signal is applied to Ceramic Filter FL105(Wide Band) or FL106 (Narrow Band&C4FM), which provides the 450KHz selectivity. Those IF filters are controlled by IF.NARROW signal from the microcomputer (HILLARY:U700). The output of the 2’nd IF filter is applied through 2’nd IF amplifier and Ceramic Filter FL104 or FL107 to Limiter amplifier. Those IF Filters are controlled by C4FM. DATA signal from the microcomputer (HILLARY:U700). This IF signal is amplified and balanced outputs, RXIF and RXIF, are sent to HILLARY. These two lines, one positive and the other negative, are used to cancel out any noise that might get on the line. These balance outputs is applied to the phase digitizer on HILLARY and detected. 2, Transmitter Circuit The Transmitter Circuit consists of Buffer Amplifier (U202 and Q202), PA Module (U201). Automatic Power Control Circuit (Q421, Q422 and U404), Antenna Switch Module (Z302). The initial drive level for the transmitter is the Tx VCO. The VCO frequency range is 136 to 174MHz. 2-1 Buffer Amplifier The output of VCO is applied to the Buffer Amplifier U202. The collector voltage for U202 is provided Switch circuit and is controlled by DPTT. The output of U202 is applied to the Buffer Amplifier Q202 input that is amplified to +8dBm. The output of U202 is applied to PA module input. 2-2 PA Module The input of the PA Module is amplified to about 7W. B+ (7.5 V DC) is connected U201 through RF chokes L251. The PA Module consists of two stages RF amplifier. The first stage power supply voltage is supplied by power control circuit. The second RF amplifier operates in Class-C. This output can be regulated by power control circuit. 2-3 Automatic Power Control The Automatic Power Control circuit samples the output power to the antenna to maintain a constant power level across the band. The Automatic Power Control circuit controls the Vcont voltage to PA Module U201. Directional coupler is include of Antenna Switch Module(Z302). Directional coupler provides a sampled signal of transmit power for diode. Diode produce a positive DC voltage proportional to the transmitter circuit output power level, that is compared to a comparator (U404) from TX POWER CONT of control unit. The output of U404 is applied to DC amplifier Q422, then the output voltage of Q422 controls to the Vcont of PA Module for constant output power level. 2-4 Antenna Switch Module The Antenna Switch Module consists of switch circuit and the Low Pass Filter. During transmit, DPTT line from HILLARY is high level. Transistor Q403 turns on supply +7.2V to Antenna Switch Module Z302. When transmitting, the Antenna switch diode is low impedance. 3. Frequency Synthesizer Circuit It consists of the Reference Oscillator, PLL Frequency Synthesizer chip U305, Loop filter, Rx VCO Z303, and Tx VCO Z304. PLL Frequency Synthesizer chip receives PLL data, and control information from the microcomputer and from this generates the Tx/Rx RF frequencies. It also provides frequency lock status to the microcomputer. Rx VCO and Tx VCO are locked to the Reference Oscillator by a single direct-divide synthesis loop consisting of the Feedback Buffer, Prescaler, and PLL Frequency Synthesizer chip. The Tx VCO operates over a frequency range of 136-174MHz. The Rx VCO operates over a frequency range of 251.65-289.65MHz. 3-1 Reference Oscillator The reference oscillator consists of a 1.5ppm TCXO (Temperature Controlled Compensated Crystal Oscillator). The standard of reference oscillator frequency is 19.2MHz. The TCXO is enclosed in a RF shielded can. The TCXO is compensated by internal temperature compensated circuit for both low and high temperature. With no additional compensated the oscillator will provide 1.5 PPM stability from -30°C to +60°C. 3-2 Fractional-N Frequency Synthesizer chip Fractional-N Frequency synthesizer chip U305 provides fractionality through the use of main ∆Σ modulators. The output from the modulators are combined with the main and auxiliary divider ratios through their respective Fractional Units. The reference frequency 19.2MHz from the crystal oscillator is divided by a ratio of 1 to 32 to create the reference frequencies for the phase detectors. The divide ratios can be programmed through the Reference Frequency Dividers Register. The dividend is Desired VCO division ratio in fractional-N applications. This number is a real number and can be interpreted as the reference frequency (F ref ) multiplying factor such that the resulting frequency is equal to the desired VCO frequency. When in 18-bit mode, 18-bit signed input value to the ∆Σ modulator, ranging from -131072 to +131071 providing 262144 steps, each of F div_ref / 2 18 (Hz). The divider is 262144 when the ∆Σ modulator is in 18-bit mode. With the modulator in 18-bit mode, the value to be programmed in the Main Dividend register is programmed by the microcomputer. This results in an error voltage when the phase differ and a constant output voltage when phase-detector input compare in frequency and phase. If a phase error is detected, an error voltage is developed and applied to the VCO DC offset and loop filter to reset the VCO frequency. The dividend is controlled by the frequency data received on the SC.CLK, SC.DATA - and SC.SYN1LE- line from the microcomputer. When a different channel is selected or when changing to the transmit or receive mode an error voltage is generated and appears at the phase-detector output, causing the Phase Locked Loop to acquire the new frequency. 3-3 Loop filter The Loop filter consists of R341 or R322 through R327 and C336 through C341and Analog SW (U304, U309). This filter controls the bandwidth and stability of the synthesizer loop. When a different channel changing or changing to transmit or receive mode, analog switch is controlled by VCO RX/TX for PLL lock up first. The output of the filter is applied to the variable capacitors in transmit and receive VCO to adjust and maintain the VCO frequency. The use of to VCO allows rapid independent selection of transmit and receive frequencies across the frequency split. 3-4 Rx VCO The Rx VCO consists of low-noise silicon transistor oscillator, and followed by high-gain buffer. The VCO is switched on and off VCO RX/TX line. When VCO RX/TX is low, the Rx VCO is turned on, transistor Q301 is on. The Rx VCO output is typically 0dBm. The output is applied to the PLL Frequency Synthesizer chip for VCO frequency control and as the Receiver frequency to Rx 1’st Mixer through the 1’st Local oscillator buffer amplifier. The VCO voltage need only be set once at some frequency of the band and split, after which it operates over the entire split with no additional tuning. 3-5 Tx VCO The Tx VCO is basically the same as the Rx VCO. The Tx VCO has the modulation terminal for FM. The VCO consists of silicon transistor oscillator followed by high-gain buffer amplifier. When VCO RX/TX is high, the Tx VCO is turned on, transistor Q302 is on. 3-6 Lock Detect The Lock Detect signal is outputted from synthesizer IC (U305-9). The LOCK(U305-9) is low if a large frequency error exist, and will carry unlock condition to the microcomputer.
