WARRANTY
Limited Software Warranty
For the first ninety (90) days following its initial shipment, Motorola warrants that when properly used, its software will be free from reproducible defects that
cause a material variance from its published specification. However, Motorola does not warrant that program operation will be uninterrupted or error- free, that
each defect will be corrected, or that any program will meet Licensee’s particular requirements.
This warranty does not cover an item of Software (i) used in other than its normal and customary manner; (ii) subjected to misuse; or (iii) subjected to modi-
fications by Licensee or by any party other than Motorola without the prior written consent of Motorola.
Limited Media Warranty
For the first ninety (90) days following its initial shipment, Motorola warrants that the media carrying the software will be free from defects that damage the
performance of the software. Motorola will replace any damaged media free of charge during the warranty period. Warranted media is limited to that which
is used to transport the software (such as floppy disks and authorization key). PROMs that may store the software in equipment are not covered under this
warranty.
Limitation of Liability
Motorola’s total liability and Licensee’s sole remedy for any warranted software shall be limited to, at Motorola’s option, software replacement or the payment
of Licensee’s actual damages, not to exceed the total licensed charge paid by Licensee to Motorola for the item of software that caused the damage.

commercial loss, and lost profits or savings) to the full extent that such may be disclaimed by law even if Motorola has been advised of the possibility of such
damage against licensee by any other party.
Repair of Defects
The classification of defects in Motorola-supplied software shall be the responsibility of Motorola. Remedy of defects is at the sole discretion of Motorola. If
Motorola agrees to remedy a software defect, the new software will be warranted until the end of the original limited warranty period. Replacement of any

General Safety Precautions Chapter 2: Installing the Simulcast Subsystem Hardware
General Safety Precautions
Observe the following general safety precautions during all phases of operation, service and
repair of the equipment described in this manual. The safety precautions listed below represent
precautions regarding certain known hazards. Follow these warnings and all other safety
precautions necessary for the safe operation of the equipment.
The installation process requires preparation and knowledge of the site before
installation begins. Review installation procedures and precautions in the
Standards and Guidelines for Communications Sites (68P81089E50) manual before
performing any site or component installation.
Also, all applicable safety procedures, such as Occupational, Safety, and Health Administration
(OSHA) requirements, National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements, local code requirements,
safe working practices, and good judgment must be used by personnel.
These general safety precautions include the following:
•Read and follow all warning notices and instructions marked on the product or
included in this manual before installing, servicing, or operating the equipment.
Retain these safety instructions for future reference.
•Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute
parts or perform any unauthorized modifications of equipment.
•If troubleshooting the equipment while power is on, be aware of the live circuits.
•Do not operate the radio transmitters unless all RF connectors are secure
and all connectors are properly terminated.
•All equipment must be properly grounded in accordance with the Standards
and Guidelines for Communications Sites (68P81089E50) manual and specified
installation instructions for safe operation.
•Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. These slots and
openings must not be blocked or covered.
•Only a qualified technician familiar with similar electronic equipment
should service equipment.
•Some equipment components can become extremely hot during operation. Turn off all
power to the equipment and wait until sufficiently cool before touching.
•Maintain emergency first aid kits at the site.
•Have personnel call in with their travel routes to help ensure their safety
while traveling between remote sites.
•Establish a communications routine during certain higher risk procedures where
the on-site technician continually updates management or safety personnel of the
progress so that help can be dispatched if needed.
2-2 68P81003Y71-O November 2002
Simulcast Hardware Installation Maintenance Requiring Two People
•Never store combustible materials in or near equipment racks. The combination of
combustible material, heat and electrical energy increases the risk of a fire safety hazard.
Maintenance Requiring Two People
Identify maintenance actions that require two people to perform the repair. Two people are required when:
•A repair has the risk of injury that would require one person to perform first
aid or call for emergency support. An example would be work around high
voltage sources. A second person may be required to remove power and call for
emergency aid if an accident occurs to the first person.
•Use the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) lifting
equation to determine whether one or twopersonliftisrequiredwhenasystem
component must be removed and replaced in its rack.
Lifting STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio Racks
Equipment racks should only be lifted without the use of lifting equipment when there are sufficient
personnel available to ensure that regulations covering health and safety are not breached.
Motorola recommends the use of an appropriate powered mechanical lifting apparatus
for moving and lifting the equipment racks.
In addition to these points, refer to and comply with any local regulations that
govern the use of lifting equipment.
Crush hazard could result in death, personal injury, or equipment
damage. Equipment racks can weigh up to 545kg (1200 lb). Follow the
instructions below for proper lifting procedures.
68P81003Y71-O November 2002 2-3
Lifting Equipment Racks Chapter 2: Installing the Simulcast Subsystem Hardware
Lifting Equipment Racks
Lifting Equipment Racks Horizontally
In some cases, the equipment racks are laid down horizontal to facilitate the shipping process. Use
the appropriate lifting apparatus to lift the racks upright to comply with all applicable health and
safety regulations, and any other regulations applicable to lifting heavy equipment.
Do not use the eyenuts mounted on the top of the rack to lift the rack upright from horizontal position.
The eyenuts are designed only to support and lift equipment in its normal vertical position.
Crush hazard could result in death, personal injury, or equipment damage. Do
not use the eyenuts mounted on the top of the rack to lift the rack upright from
horizontal position. Eyelets could fail, resulting in the equipment dropping.
Lifting Equipment Racks Vertically
Each equipment rack comes with four M10 eyenuts mounted in the top of the rack. Use these
eyenuts to lift the equipment rack vertically. Before using these eyenuts, visually check them
and the rack hardware for any damage that may have occurred during shipping. If any damage
is apparent, do not use. Contact Motorola for replacement parts or material.
Do not use the eyenuts if damage is apparent. Eyenuts could fail, resulting
in the equipment dropping. Contact Motorola for replacements.
Use all four eyenuts when lifting the equipment rack. When lifting from a center point, the distance
from each eyenut to the lifting point must be a minimum of 1 m (40 in.) to ensure that the proper
lifting angle is maintained. Using a shorter length than that specified could cause the eyenuts to fail.
Figure 2-1 shows the minimum lengths and proper 45 degree lifting angles using the eyenuts.
If eyenuts are removed or become loose, install them properly before lifting the equipment rack.
Tighten the eyenuts and bolt assembly by hand. Turn the bolt clockwise an additional 45 degrees.
Eyenuts must be aligned to point towards the center lifting point of the cabinet and tightened to
10.2 to 13.6 Nm (90 to 120 lb-in.) of torque. Proper eyenut tightness and alignment are crucial
to ensure the eyenut assembly performs to its intended lifting capacity.
Figure 2-2 shows the proper alignment of the eyenuts.
