expose equipment to the effects of Electro-Static Discharge. Proper precautions must be
taken to prevent ESD when handling circuit boards or modules.
The electrical hazard symbol is a WARNING indicating there may be an electrical
shock hazard present.
1.2 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read these instructions.
• Keep these instructions.
• Heed all warnings.
• Follow all instructions.
• Do not use this apparatus near water.
• Clean only with dry cloth.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
WARNING
CAUTION
NOTE
MM-015039-001, Rev. E
6
• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two
blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding
prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit
into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid
injury from tip-over.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled
or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.
• Warning: The lightning bolt signifies an alert to the user of the presence of un-insulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of significant magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons.
• Warning: The exclamation point alerts the user to the presence of important operation and
maintenance (service) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.
• Outdoor Use Warning: To reduce the risk of Fire or Electric Shock, Do Not Expose This Apparatus to
Rain or Moisture.
• Wet Location Warning: Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled
with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
1.3 MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS
DO NOT TRANSMIT with this base station and antenna when persons are within the Maximum
Permissible Exposure (MPE) Radius of the antenna. The MPE Radius is the minimum distance from the
antenna axis that ALL persons should maintain in order to avoid RF exposure higher than the allowable
MPE level set by the FCC.
MM-015039-001, Rev. E
7
Failure to observe these limits may allow all persons within the MPE radius to
experience RF radiation absorption, which exceeds the FCC maximum permissible
exposure (MPE) limit. It is the responsibility of the base station operator to ensure
that the maximum permissible exposure limits are observed at all times during
base station transmission. The base station licensee is to ensure that no bystanders
are within the radius limits.
1.4 DETERMINING MPE RADIUS
The Maximum Permissible Exposure radius is unique for each site and is determined during site licensing
time based on the complete installation environment (i.e. co-location, antenna type, transmit power level,
etc.). Determination of the MPE distance is the responsibility of the installation licensee. Calculation of
the MPE radius is required as part of the site licensing procedure with the FCC.
1.5 SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
Your MASTR®
V base station generates RF electromagnetic energy during
transmit mode. This base station is designed for and classified as “occupational
use only” meaning it must be used only in the course of employment by individuals
aware of the hazards and the ways to minimize such hazards. This base station is
not intended for use by the “g
eneral population” in an uncontrolled environment.
It is the responsibility of the base station licensee to ensure that the maximum
permissible exposure limits determined in the previous section are observed at all
times during transmission. The base sta
tion licensee is to ensure that no
bystanders come within the radius of the maximum permissible exposure limits.
When licensed by the FCC, this base station complies with the FCC RF exposure limits when persons are
beyond the MPE radius of the antenna. In addition, your Harris base station installation 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.
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic
energy is within the FCC
allowable limits for occupational use, do not operate the base station in a manner that
would create an MPE distance in excess of that allowable by the FCC.
This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Any changes or
modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Harris Corporation may
cause harmful interference and could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.

The MASTR V Base Station uses a 14-slot modular multi-channel T/R shelf assembly (refer to
Figure 3-1) and a 2-slot High Power Amplifier/Power Supply (HPA/PS) shelf assembly. Modules may
include BaseBand Processors, Traffic Controllers, TX, and RX modules. Blank panels for the main
module slots (MA-555413) and for the E-Switch slots (MA-555417) are installed in unused slots.
The TX module uses a factory programmable IQ modulator circuit capable of generating most any LMR
modulation format into a Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) TX exciter circuit. Additionally, the HPA may
be equipped with a Linearizer module for improved amplitude and phase noise characteristics in S-C4FM
or similar modulation modes.
The RX module includes integrated front end and IF circuitry. The RX module also uses IQ
demodulation circuitry. The IQ demodulator is factory programmable and can decode most amplitude
and phase modulation characteristic, making it capable of receiving most analog or digital LMR
modulation format.
The Multi-channel T/R shelf requires +12 VDC and +5 VDC. The HPA requires +28 VDC. The station
may be equipped with a 120/240 VAC switching power supply. The T/R shelf occupies 5-RU spaces.

4.3.3 Receiver Module (RX)
The MASTR V Receiver (RX) modules, model EA-555007, are dual-IF conversion receivers. The
receiver uses a Sigma-Delta analog to digital converter to process the incoming IF signal. The output of
the analog-to-digital converter is a complex pair of I/Q baseband digital signals. The MASTR V RX
module supports a wide range of modulation waveforms required for current and next generation public
safety two-way radio communications.
After IF filtering and down-conversion, received signals are digitized into I and Q information and sent to
the Baseband Processor module via the backplane Ethernet. The Baseband Processor module provides
the narrow channel filtering and demodulation. The narrow channel filters and digital demodulation is
performed by the system DSP, giving the MASTR V receiver the flexibility needed in current and future
LMR communications systems.
All bands of MASTR V RX modules share common design features and meet stringent receiver
specifications including the following:
• High intercept point.
• Low noise figure.
• 110.2 MHz IF chosen for all bands of the MASTR V.
• Automatic Level Control.
• Built-in 10 MHz reference; switchable to external reference derived from the baseband module
(which is compatible with an external frequency standard used for Simulcast).
• Low side LO injection for superior noise performance (700/800 MHz module).
• Built-in hardware diagnostics (voltage supplies, PLL Lock).
• Analog FM audio test jack (for factory use only).
• Raw IQ data is sent to the BaseBand Processor module for demodulation.

4.3.3.1 Front End Preselector
Each VHF and UHF MASTR V receiver is equipped with an external RF Front End Preselector, model
EA-555018-xxx. The preselector (refer to Figure 4-7) for each receiver module is mounted to a frame
assembly located on the rear rack rails near each MASTR V shelf. The preselectors provide narrow
bandpass filtering to meet the channel spacing typically used in the VHF and UHF bands.
Figure 4-7: RF Front End Preselector
4.3.4 Baseband Processor Module (BBP)
The Baseband Processor (BBP) module model EA-555005-001 provides several functions within the
MASTR V P25 Base Station:
• Generates all RX, TX, and Control Processing for one or more RF channels.
• Provides a data interface between the Traffic Controller the TX and RX modules.
• Generates a heartbeat message used to monitor the health of the base station modules.
When a MASTR V Base Station is powered up, the TX, RX, and HPA modules will perform a discovery
period where they await a software request message from the BBP module assigned to manage that slot.
When the message is received, the module will respond with a software response message that prompts
the BBP to send the modules a personality message. The personality message will contain all personality
data (default initialization parameters). The modules respond with an acknowledgement for the
personality message, and then initialize themselves according to the personality data in the personality
message. The BBP module sends the modules a message to go operational. Once operational, the
discovery and initialization phase is complete. The BBP module periodically monitors the modules
through heartbeat messages. The BBP module also performs other vital roles, especially during a P25
Simulcast.
4.3.4.1 Heartbeat Messaging
Heartbeat messaging is used to monitor the condition of the TX, RX, and HPA modules. Once
operational, the BBP module sends out heartbeat messages to each module. When a heartbeat message is
received by a module, the receiving module then sends a heartbeat message back to the BBP module. The
heartbeat monitor task keeps track of the time-stamps of the received heartbeat messages. A fault is
registered if a heartbeat message is not received within a predetermined time-frame. The heartbeat
monitor also keeps track of certain fault conditions.

4.3.6 High Power RF Power Amplifier Module (HPA)
The RF High Power Amplifier (HPA) assembly EA-555014 (shown in Figure 4-10), amplifies the exciter
output to the rated station output power level. This module contains a power module, amplifier drivers
and power control circuitry required for power amplification
The Power Amplifier assembly is a continuous duty, solid state, wide-band RF power amplifier. Its main
function is to amplify the 0 dBm signal from the TX module to the rated RF output at the antenna port.
The RF output of the Power Amplifier Assembly is capable of up to 100 Watts (adjustable from 10 to
100 Watts) as measured at the PA output port.
The MASTR V HPA series EA-555014 is also equipped with a RF linearizer circuit to improve RF
performance. The RF linearizer samples the RF output of the HPA, and provides waveform correction to
the RF input signal relative to its RF output characteristics. This improves waveform distortion.

implied or statutory. NO IMPLIED OR STATUTORY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS
FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL APPLY. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE SELLER BE LIABLE FOR ANY
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES.
