The following sections provide information about programming the devices that provide the RF interface (simulcast base radio) to the subscriber radios in your system and the devices that support the RF interface. TRAK 9100 SIMULCAST SITE REFERENCE See “TRAK 9100 Simulcast Site Reference Configuration” on page 2-20 for a full description of the configuration procedures that cover the general configuration points. This section provides only the specific settings required for the remote site device. At the digital simulcast subsystem remote sites, the TRAK 9100 provides 1 pps + 5 Mpps composite signals to the simulcast base radio. For a total of 30 channels, a TRAK 9100 SSR with two Digital Distribution Modules (DDM) configured for composite signals is required. Each composite signal can drive up to six STR 3000 Base Radios. A 50 ohm impedance must terminate the end of a daisy chain. The 50 ohm load is installed at the STR 3000 Base Radio’s composite input terminal. STR 3000 SIMULCAST BASE RADIO The information provided in this section is for all simulcast base radios installed in the digital simulcast subsystem at remote and co-located remote sites. Using the TTY port, connect to the simulcast base radios, and program the IP address required for this particular station on this channel number at this subsite. IP address information should be obtained from your Motorola Field Representative. Using Configuration/Service Software (CSS), program the proper operating frequency for the station and verify proper RF alignment. Do this for all channels at all subsites. Table 3-1 gives an overview of information that is configured. Using the CSS Station Configuration tab, set Simulcast Operation to Enabled. NOTE Some fields in the CSS dialog boxes are marked with an asterisk (*). This indicates a field that can be overwritten from the User Configuration Manager (UCM).

See the online documentation provided with the CSS for specific procedures. FIGURE 3-8 BASE RADIO STATION CONFIGURATION SCREEN Exhibit 9B 3-6 PRELIMINARY Internal Review (First Draft - 50% to 60% Complete) 68 P 81 00 XY X X- O A P R I L 20 0 3 SIMULCAST CONFIGURATION ILLEGAL CARRIER DETERMINATION AND BASE RADIO MEASUREMENT MEASURING CHANNEL INTERFERENCE The STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radios log interfering carrier levels that surpass the RF threshold value to the station error log. These logs can be used to determine periodic interfering carriers that are not present long enough to trigger the Carrier Malfunction Timer. These logs should also be checked after any changes are made to the site that affect the site noise floor. An example of this type of change would be seen when a new customer in the immediate area is using the same frequency band. SETTING THE STR 3000 SIMULCAST BASE RADIO RF THRESHOLD VALUE FIELD The RF Threshold Value field appears on the Station Configuration tab of the STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio window. This field defines the level (in dBm) above which the received signal is considered to be an illegal carrier, if this STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio is not assigned to a call. Procedure 3-1 describes the steps to set the RF Threshold Value field. PROCEDURE 3-1 HOW TO SET THE STR 3000 SIMULCAST BASE RADIO RF THRESHOLD VALUE FIELD In the CSS application, select STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio. Result: The STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio window appears (Figure 3-10).

PROCEDURE 3-4 HOW TO MONITOR THE TRANSMITTER METERING POINTS From the Service menu, select Metering Screen. Results: The Metering Screen dialog box appears (Figure 3-17). FIGURE 3-17 METERING SCREEN DIALOG BOX NOTE To obtain a reading for the RFDS VSWR metering point, you must be connected inside the STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio rack at the bottom position, which accepts the output from the FRDS output power meter. Otherwise, the value will be either 0 or N/A. Click Transmitter Test, which briefly keys up the transmitter. Result: The status bar on the window confirms if the transmitter is operating properly or if it has failed. See Table 3-4 “Source for the Transmitter Metering Points” on page 3-21 for a list of the source for each transmitter metering point.

PROCEDURE 3-5 HOW TO CHECK THE TRANSMITTER FREQUENCY Turn off the STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio using the On and Off switch on the front of the power supply module. CAUTION Make sure power to the base radio is OFF. Connecting or disconnecting RF cables while the transmitter is keyed could cause personal injury or equipment damage from RF arcing. NOTE If two STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio rack transmitters are combined together, turn off all of the base radios in both racks. Disconnect the transmit cable from the base radio. Connect the transmit port to the service monitor. Set the service monitor to monitor the transmit frequency of the base radio being tested. Turn on the base radio being checked using the On and Off switch on the front of the power supply module and allow the station to fully initialize. Use the CSS application to read the configuration from the base radio. See “Reading the Configuration File from a Device” in the STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio online help.

Result: The Test and Measurement Screen dialog box appears (Figure 3-18). FIGURE 3-18 TEST AND MEASUREMENT SCREEN DIALOG BOX If the station is not already in Service Mode, click Change to Service Mode. Result: The STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio begins a reset sequence to change modes, which takes a few seconds. After resetting, read the configuration data again from the base radio and then open the Test and Measurement Screen dialog box, as described in step 7. Select the Standard Test pattern. 10 Click Start Pattern Transmission to start transmitting the test pattern. 11 Record the transmitted frequency. 12 Calculate the parts per million (ppm) error using the following equation: ppm error = (Recorded frequency/assigned frequency - 1)X106 The specification is 0.15 ppm. NOTE If all transmitter tests are complete proceed with next step, otherwise, go to the next transmitter test. 13 Turn off the STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio using the On and Off switch on the front of the power supply module.

CHECKING THE TRANSMITTER BIT ERROR RATE Perform Procedure 3-6 to check the bit error rate (BER) on the transmitter. NOTE If the service monitor is already connected, go to step 6. PROCEDURE 3-6 HOW TO CHECK THE TRANSMITTER BIT ERROR RATE Turn off the STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio using the On and Off switch on the front of the power supply module. CAUTION Make sure power to the base radio is OFF. Connecting or disconnecting RF cables while the transmitter is keyed could cause personal injury or equipment damage from RF arcing. NOTE If two STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio rack transmitters are combined together, turn off all of the base radios in both racks. Disconnect the transmit cable from the base radio.
