 68P81093C75-O December 1, 2000 2-1 Safety and General Information 2 Important Information IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION. READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR TRANSPORTABLE REPEATER. RF Operational Characteristics Your transportable Repeater contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy Your Motorola transportable Repeater is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy: • United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J • American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992 • Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition • National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United States, Report 86, 1986 • International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998 • National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom 1995 • Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999 • Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Exposure) Standard 1999 (applicable to wireless phones only)
 2-2 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-O Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility NOTE: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility. • FACILITIES To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy. • FIXED SITE ANTENNAS Transportable Repeater equipment is transported to and then set up at a fixed location and operated as a fixed control station or repeater.  The antenna installation must comply with the following requirements in order to assure optimal performance and make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set forth in the above standards: • The antenna must be mounted outside the building. • Mount the antenna on a tower if at all possible. The lowest point of the antenna must be elevated a minimum of 10 meters above the ground. This may require the use of a coaxial cable extension for the antenna.  • If the antenna is to be mounted on a building, then it must be mounted on the roof.  If the antenna supplied with the repeater is used and the repeater cannot be located within the 12 ft. cable length,  then a coaxial cable extension should be used.   • As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the responsibility of the licensee to manage the site in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and may require additional compliance actions such as site survey measurements, signage, and site access restrictions in order to insure that exposure limits are not exceeded.
 68P81093C75-O December 1, 2000 3-1 Introduction 3 General The Motorola PDR 3500 provides conventional analog,  ASTRO™ ,  ASTRO CAI™ , and  SECURENET™  capabilities in a compact, software-controlled design.  The station architecture and microprocessor-controlled Station Control Module allow for fast and reliable upgrading.  FLASH memory in the Station Control Module allows software updates to be performed locally (using serial port), or remotely via modem. Compact Mechanical Design The entire unit is housed in a lockable rugged, black aluminum extruded case weighing approximately 4l lbs.  Internal components are mounted in a custom, removable chassis, designed to fit a 19" rack. State-of-the-Art Electrical Design Transmitter Circuitry The station transmitter circuitry is designed for 50% duty cycle operation at full rated power.  Output power is continuously monitored by an internal calibrated wattmeter.  The wattmeter output feeds a power control loop, continually adjusting and maintaining the desired output power.  All adjustments are electronic, including deviation and output power. Receiver Circuitry The station receive circuitry features multiple bandwidth capability (12.5, 25, or 30 kHz, depending on band), as well as  ASTRO  digital operation.  Injection signals for the 1st and 2nd local mixers are generated by frequency synthesizer circuitry and are electronically controlled by the Station Control Module.  All receive signals (analog,  SECURENET ,  ASTRO , and  ASTRO CAI ) are detected and digitized before being sent to the Station Control Module; this provides improved audio quality, consistent throughout the coverage area. Station Control Module The Station Control Module is microprocessor-based and features extensive use of ASIC and digital signal processing technology.  The module serves as the main controller for the station, providing signal processing and operational control for the station modules.
 3-2 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-O Wireline Circuitry The station wireline circuitry provides a wide variety of telephone interfaces, including analog,  ASTRO ,  ASTRO CAI ,  SECURENET , Tone Remote Control, and DC Remote Control.  Telephone line connections are easily made to the wireline circuitry via connectors on the top panel. Switching Power Supply The station features a switching-type power supply, accepting a wide range of AC inputs (85-265 VAC, 49-61 Hz). The power supply generates 13.8 VDC for the station modules.  Standard Features • Compact single case design • Extensive Self-Test Diagnostics and Alarm Reporting • FRU maintenance philosophy • Easily programmed via Radio Service Software • Local or Remote Software downloading to FLASH memory • Upgrades performed by module replacement and/or software upgrade •  Compatible (with appropriate options) with analog,  SECURENET ,  ASTRO , and  ASTRO CAI  digital signaling  • Versatile and reliable switching-type power supply • Wide operating temperature range: -30˚ C to + 60˚C (-22˚ F to +140˚ F) Optional Hardware Features • Duplexer Option – allows a single antenna to serve for both transmitter and receiver circuitry for repeater applications.  • Antenna Relay Option – allows a single antenna to be switched between transmitter and receiver.•ASTRO Modem – allows connection (for ASTRO digital signaling) to a console through a Digital Interface Unit (DIU) in an ASTRO system, also allows connection to another ASTRO Modem for digital Cross-Patch.
68P81093C75-O December 1, 2000 4-1System Applications 4Local Control The PDR 3500 is an APCO 25 digital repeater. The station is identical in operation to the Quantar station, hence there is no local control capability. There is no digital-to-audio translation within the station. Local control style operation can be accomplished in several ways:a. A portable radio may be used as an RF control station talking to the repeater.b. The station may be equipped with the wireline and the modem options and routed through a DIU to a tone remote console. The Tone remote console controls the station via wireline through the DIU. The wireline in this case is a local 4-wire cable.External Duplexer Operation The PDR 3500 must be used with an external duplexer when frequency spacing is less than 3 MHz. The duplexer isolation required for proper operation is approximately 60 dB.  Double-shielded coaxial cables must be used from the repeater to the duplexer.Repeater RA or Cross Band Repeater OperationThe PDR 3500 can be configured for Repeater RA or cross band repeater operation by adding the wireline card and the Astro modem to the each repeater.

68P81093C75-O December 1, 2000 7-1Setup and Connections 7Programming with RSSIntroduction The PDR 3500 uses the same RSS (Radio Service Software) as the Quantar/Quantro family. Some values shown in RSS screens may not be valid due to hardware differences between the Quantar Station and the PDR 3500.  A thorough explanation of the differences will be given in the following sections.Connecting PC to PDR 3500 RSS Port Once the RSS Program has been loaded onto the PC (refer to Quantar RSS User’s Guide, 68P81085E35), the PC must be electrically connected to the PDR 3500 via the RSS port located on the top panel.  For this connection, a 9-pin female to 9-pin male EIA-232 cable is available (Motorola part number 30-80369E31) from the Accessories  and Aftermarket Product Division (AAD, formerly known as Motorola National Parts). A cable can also be made using the wiring diagram in Figure 1.Figure 1.

9-10 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OInterpreting Alarm Alert TonesIntroduction Four station alarm conditions are reported with audio alert tones which are routed to the external speaker connector (RJ-11) on the front of the control module. (Pin 4 on the RJ-11 is Speaker High; Pin 1 is Speaker Ground.) The alarms are also entered into the alarm log which can be accessed using the RSS. Refer to the RSS User’s Guide, part number 68P81085E35.NOTE: The alarm tones may also be routed to the console (via the wireline) and transmitted over the air. Refer to the RSS User’s Guide (part number 68P81085E35) for details on enabling or disabling these two alarm routing options.The four alarm conditions are represented by a series of alarm tones, from a single beep, to four beeps. Each beep is a 1200 Hz tone, lasting 125 msec. The alarm tones occur during a repeating 10 second window, with two seconds between successive alarms (when more than one alarm is active). The following two examples illustrate the timing of the alarm tones.The alarm tone definitions are as follows:Example 1: Single Alarm (#3)beep...beep....beep.................................................................................................[repeats]Alarm #310 Second WindowExample 2: Multiple Alarms (#1 and #4)beep...........................beep....beep ... beep....beep................................................[repeats]2 secondsAlarm #1 Alarm #410 Second WindowNumber of Beeps Alarm Condition Name Alarm Condition Description1 Battery Revert Alarm is reported when station loses AC/DC line power and reverts to battery backup. Alarm is cleared when station receives AC/DC power. Should not occur in PDR 3500.2 PA Fail Alarm is reported when PA fails to keyup to full ouput power.

This procedure is useful in the event that the RSS is not at hand or for some reason cannot be utilized (PC malfunction, etc.)This procedure allows the service technician to make minor adjustments and verify the proper operation of the station transmit circuitry, including:•Exciter Module•Power Amplifier Module•Power Supply Module•2.1 MHz Reference Oscillator Circuitry•Transmitter-related circuitry on the Station Control Module (SCM)In general, the transmitter circuitry is exercised by injecting and measuring signals using a Motorola R2001 Communications Analyzer (or equivalent). Measured values outside the acceptable range indicate a faulty module; values within range verify proper operation of the above listed modules and circuitry.Required Test Equipment The following test equipment is required to perform the procedure:•Motorola R2001 Communications Analyzer (or equivalent)•Telephone-style handset with PTT switch (TMN6164, or equivalent)•In-line Wattmeter (Motorola Model S-1350, or equivalent)•Dummy Load (50Ω, station wattage or higher)Verifying Transmitter Circuitry Procedure Step 1.  Connect test equipment by performing Step 1 through 3 shown in Figure 6.Step 2.  Connect handset to RJ-11 connector on SCM front panel, as shown. The cover plate over the SCM side of the chassis must be removed to access this connector.MEPF-27031-OHandsetPTTButton

Press the PTT button and observe the LED indicators on the Exciter Module front panel.•If PA Low or PA Fail LED is lit, suspect the following:-Power Amplifier Module failure-Exciter Module failure-Loose or bad Exciter-to-PA RF cable-DIP switches on backplane are set for incorrect station frequency band. DIP switches should be set as described in the backplane portion of the Module Replacement section.-Faulty forward voltage, control voltage, or temperature voltage translation circuitry on backplane.•If TX Lock LED is off, suspect the following:-Faulty Station Control Module-Faulty Exciter Module-Faulty backplaneStep 4.  Measure output power by pressing the PTT button and observing the reading on the in-line wattmeter.•If the PA output is not at the proper power (as set for the particular station), adjust the output power as described in the Setup and Connections section of this manual.•If the station will not output the rated power, and the output is being measured through a duplexer or antenna relay, the duplexer could be set for the incorrect frequency, or it could be malfunctioning, or the antenna relay could be faulty. Connect the wattmeter directly to the transmit port (UHF connector) on the station top panel, bypassing the duplexer or antenna relay. If the station generates rated power directly from the PA, suspect the following:-Faulty duplexer or transmit frequency mismatch-Loose or faulty PA-to-duplexer/antenna relay cable-Improperly connected or faulty antenna relay
9-14 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OIf the station still does not generate rated power, suspect the following:-Power Amplifier Module failure-Exciter Module failure-Loose or faulty Exciter-to-PA RF cable-Faulty forward voltage or control voltage translation circuitry on backplaneStep 5.  If the PA power out is okay, setup R2001 for spectrum analyzer display. Press the PTT button and observe the display. The display should look similar to:•If the display shows multiple carriers, evenly spaced about the station transmit frequency, suspect a faulty PA module.•If the display shows a solid carrier, but off frequency, suspect the following:-Faulty Exciter or Station Control Module•If the display shows a single carrier moving erratically, suspect the following:-Faulty Station Control Module-Faulty Exciter Module-Faulty PA ModuleStep 6.  If the display is okay, setup R2001 to display modulation. Using the handset, push the PTT button and speak into the mouthpiece. Verify that the display shows:•If the proper display is not obtained, suspect faulty SCM or Exciter ModuleStep 7.  Set the R2001 for GEN/MON MTR. Press the PTT button and speak loudly into the mouthpiece to cause maximum deviation. Display should read ±5 kHz maximum.•If the proper display is not obtained, suspect faulty SCM or Exciter ModuleStep 8.  This completes the Verifying Transmitter Circuitry test procedure. If all displays and measurements are correct, the transmitter circuitry may be considered to be operating properly.

This procedure is useful in the event that the RSS is not at hand, or, for some reason, cannot be utilized (PC malfunction, etc.)This procedure allows the service technician to make minor adjustments and verify the proper operation of the station receive circuitry, including:•Receiver Module•Power Supply Module•2.1 MHz Reference Oscillator Circuitry•Receiver-related circuitry in the Station Control Module (SCM)In general, the receiver circuitry is exercised by injecting and measuring signals using a Motorola R2001 Communications Analyzer (or equivalent). Measured values outside the acceptable range indicate a faulty module; values within range verify proper operation of the above listed modules and circuitry.Required Test Equipment The following test equipment is required to perform the procedure:•Motorola R2001 Communications Analyzer (or equivalent)•Telephone-style handset with PTT switch (TMN6164, or equivalent)•RJ-11 to BNC cable•Dummy Load (50Ω, station wattage, or higher)IMPORTANT! If the station operates as a repeater, the transmit output from the station must be connected to a dummy load to prevent over-the-air broadcast during receiver testing.
9-16 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OVerifying Receiver Circuitry Procedure Step 1.   Connect test equipment by performing Step 1 through 3 shown in Figure 7.NOTE: The cover plate over the SCM side of the chassis must be removed to perform these tests.Step 2.  Disable PL and carrier squelch by repeatedly pressing the PL/CSQ/Off button until receiver noise is heard through the handset (or external speaker). Refer to Figure 5 for the location of the PL/CSQ/Off button. If no audio is heard, suspect the following:•Faulty Receiver Module •Faulty Station Control Module•R2001 is outputting a carrier signalStep 3.  Set R2001 to generate a 0.5 µV (-13 dBm) FM signal at the PDR 3500 receiver frequency, modulated by a 1 kHz tone at 3 kHz deviation. The 1 kHz tone should be audible through the handset (or external speaker). If no audio is heard, suspect the following:•Faulty Station Control Module (2.1 MHz reference)•Faulty Receiver Module•Faulty antenna-to-Receiver preselector RF cable•Faulty R2001-to-station RF cable•Duplexer/station receive frequency mismatch, or faulty duplexer
68P81093C75-O November 30, 2000  9-17Step 4.

9-18 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OStep 5.  Use the Volume Up button to increase the volume to maximum. Measure the audio level using the R2001.•Audio level should measure approximately 0.75 to 1.5 V p-p. If not, suspect faulty SCM.Step 6. Change R2001 injection signal to•VHF: 0.25 µV (-119 dBm)•UHF: 0.35 µV (-116 dBm).Step 7.  Measure the receiver 12 dB SINAD sensitivity. The value should read 12 dB, or greater. If not, tune the preselector (VHF and UHF only) and re-check 12 dB SINAD. If 12 dB SINAD cannot be achieved, suspect the following:•Damaged cable from top panel receive port to preselector•Faulty receiver•Excessive loss in the R2001-to-station RF cableNOTE: To measure 12 dB SINAD, the station must be programmed for mixed mode Analog/Digital operation. Incorrect reading will result if programmed for Digital Only operation.NOTE: For VHF and UHF stations only, refer to 5. Preselector Field Tuning Procedure in this section. Procedures for tuning the receiver preselector are described.Step 8.  If the station is configured with a duplexer, continue with Step 9 to test the duplexer’s performance. If the station is not configured with a duplexer, go to Step 16.Step 9.  Steps 9 through 13 describe a method of measuring the effect of insertion loss from the duplexer on receiver sensitivity. Connect the dummy load to the station’s top panel receive port through a capacitive coupler (isolated T). Connect the R2001 to the isolated side of the coupler. (See Figure 8.)
68P81093C75-O November 30, 2000  9-19Step 10.  Disable the transmitter by holding the Shift button and then pressing the Access Disable button on the Station Control Module, as shown in Figure 9. When the transmitter is disabled, the yellow Access disable light on the SCM will flash. This step is very important. With the transmitter disabled, the PA Full LED on the Exciter Module should not light, even when the station is receiving.Figure 8 A. Coupled receiver connection. (Top) B.

9-20 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OStep 11. Measure the 12dB SINAD sensitivity and make a note of the level. This level will serve as a baseline for the receiver sensitivity. If 12 dB SINAD cannot be achieved, suspect the following:•Test configuration used does not match that shown in Figure 8B.•Excessive loss in the coaxial cables or coupler.Step 12. Remove the cable connecting the coupler to the top panel receive port. Connect the coupler to the duplexer’s antenna port. Connect the duplexer’s receive port to the station’s top panel receive port, as in normal station operation. (See Figure 8B.)Step 13. Measure the 12 dB SINAD once again, and note the result. The difference between this 12 dB SINAD level and the level measured in Step 11 reflects the insertion loss of the duplexer. The difference should be no greater than approximately•VHF: 1.3 dB•UHF: 1.6 dBIf the difference is greater, suspect the following:•Duplexer receive and transmit ports are reversed•Loose or damaged cables between the duplexer and the station•Station receive frequency does not match the duplexer receive frequency. Use a different frequency or replace the duplexer. (Field tuning of duplexers is not recommended.)Figure 9 Disabling the TransmitterPress and holdShift Button.Station ControlModuleExciterModuleMAEPF-27037-O1Press Vol Down/Access Disable2Intcm/Acc D LEDshould Flash yellow.3PA Full LED shouldNOT illuminate.4
68P81093C75-O November 30, 2000  9-21Step 14.  Steps 14 and 15 will test the effect of duplexer quieting on receive sensitivity. Re-enable the transmitter by holding down the Shift button again and pressing the Access Disable button on the SCM. The following lights should indicate that the station is now operating as a repeater:•Yellow Access Disable light stops flashing•PA Full LED on the Exciter Module lights when the station is receiving.Step 15.  Test the 12 dB SINAD sensitivity. Depending on the duplexer frequency spacing, this level should be no more than 1 to 2 dB greater than the Step 13 reading (with the transmitter disabled). If the reading is greater than 1 to 2 dB, the station transmit frequency does not match the duplexer receive frequency. Use a different frequency or replace the duplexer. (Field tuning of duplexers is not recommended.)Step 16.  If the station is not digital-capable, the Verifying Receiver Circuitry test procedure is complete. The receiver circuitry is considered to be operating properly if all displays and measurements are correct.1. Remove the test equipment.2. Restore the station to normal service.3. Return to the troubleshooting flow chart to resume the troubleshooting sequence.If the station is digital-capable, continue with the Digital Only portion of the Verifying Receiver Circuitry test procedure.Verifying Receiver Circuitry (Digital-Capable Stations)IntroductionWhile most module faults can be detected by running the station diagnostics provided by the RSS, the following procedure provides a more traditional method of troubleshooting the receiver circuitry. This procedure allows the service technician to make minor adjustments and verify the proper operation of the station receive circuitry, including:•Receiver Module•Power Supply Module•2.1 MHz Reference Oscillator Circuitry•Receiver-related circuitry in the Station Control Module (SCM)
9-22 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OThe transmitter circuitry is exercised by injecting and measuring signals using a Motorola R2670 Communications Analyzer (or equivalent), and analyzing the Bit Error Rate using the RSS. Measured values outside the acceptable range indicate a faulty module; values within range verify proper operation of the above modules and circuitry.Required Test Equipment The following test equipment is required to perform the procedure:•Motorola R2670 Communications Analyzer with ASTRO CAI Option (or equivalent)•PC running Radio Service Software (RSS) program•Female N-type to Female N-type coaxial cable•Dummy Load (50Ω, station wattage, or higher). Required for repeater stations only.IMPORTANT! If the station operates as a repeater, the transmit output from the station must be connected to a dummy load to prevent over-the-air broadcast during receiver testing.Step 1.  Proceed to ASTRO Bit Error Rate Report (located in Chapter 4 of the RSS User’s Guide, part number 68P81085E35). Follow the instructions for setting up the test equipment and initiating a BER report using the RSS. Step 2.  If the BER reading is above 5%, suspect the following:•Faulty Station Control Module (2.1 MHz reference)•Faulty Receiver Module•Faulty antenna-to-receiver preselector RF cable•Faulty top panel-to-preselector RF cable•Faulty R2670-to-station RF cableStep 3.  If you are injecting RF directly into the top panel receiver port, change the R2670 injection signal level to:•VHF: 0.25 µV (-119 dBm)•UHF: 0.35 µV (-116 dBm)If you are injecting RF through a duplexer, change the R2670 injection signal level to:
68P81093C75-O November 30, 2000  9-23•VHF: 0.29 µV (-117.7 dBm)•UHF: 0.43 µV (-114.4 dBm)NOTE: For VHF and UHF stations only, refer to 5. Preselector Field Tuning Procedure in this section, for procedures to tune the receiver preselector.Step 4.  Note the receiver BER reading. The BER reading should be 5% or less. If not, and if a duplexer is being used, repeat the BER test, bypassing the duplexer. If the BER is 5% or less after bypassing the duplexer, the station frequencies do not match the duplexer frequencies, or the duplexer-to-top panel cables are faulty. If the BER, as tested straight into the top panel, is greater than 5%, tune the preselector and re-check the BER reading. If a reading of 5%, or less, cannot be achieved, replace the Receiver Module.Step 5.  This completes the Verifying Receiver Circuitry test procedure. If all displays and measurements are correct, the receiver circuitry may be considered to be operating properly. 1. Remove test equipment. 2. Restore the station to normal service. 3. Return to the trouble shooting flow chart to resume the troubleshooting sequence.Wiring Diagram Please refer to Figure 10 for a conceptual line drawing of the motherboard, modules, and other components set flat outside of the chassis and properly interconnected.Please refer to Figure 11 on page 25 for a detailed diagram of the connections from the AC inlet connector to the power supply and chassis ground.

68P81093C75-O November 30, 2000  9-25Module Replacement Procedures Station modules suspected of being faulty must be replaced with modules known to be in good condition in order to restore the station to proper operation. The following procedures provide instructions for replacing each of the station modules and performing any required post-replacement adjustments or programming.General Replacement InformationAnti-Static Precaution The station circuitry contains many C-MOS and other static-sensitive devices. When servicing the equipment, you must take precautionary steps to prevent damage to the modules from static discharge. Complete information on prevention of static protection is provided in Motorola publication number 68P81106E84, available through the Accessories and Aftermarket Division. Some additional precautions are as follows:•A wrist strap (Motorola part number RSX4015A, or equivalent) should be worn while servicing the equipment to minimize static buildup.Figure 11 Chassis Ground Wiring DiagramOutput InputGndNeg Pos HNPower SupplyAC Inlet(Viewed fromUnderside)ChassisGround StudRing LugsNutsLockWashers GRN/YELGRN/YELBROWNORANGEMAEPF-27099-OWARNING: When wearing a Conductive Wrist Strap, be careful near sources of high voltage. The good ground provided by the wrist strap will also increase the danger of lethal shock from accidentally touching high voltage sources.!CAUTION: DO NOT insert or remove station modules with power applied. This may result in damage to the modules.!
9-26 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-O•Do not insert or remove modules with power applied. Always turn off the station by unplugging the AC and DC cords from the top panel before inserting or removing modules.•All spare modules should be kept in a conductive bag for storage and transporting. When shipping modules to the repair depot, always pack them in conductive material.Care of Gold-Plated Connector Contacts The connectors between the modules and the station backplane board are made with gold-plated card edge connector contacts to provide maximum reliability. Gold-plated materials do not form a non-conductive oxide layer and therefore should not require cleaning under normal conditions.When the modules have been subjected to many extraction/insertion cycles, or if the station is operated in a dusty environment, the contacts may require cleaning. Do not use an eraser or any type of abrasive substance to clean either the module card edge connectors, or the backplane connector contacts.If the cleaning of gold-plated contacts is required, use a soft cloth dampened with alcohol to lightly wipe the contacts. Be sure not to touch the contact surfaces with your fingers; finger oils and salts can contaminate the contact surfaces.Power Down Station Before Removing/Inserting ModulesBefore removing or inserting a module into the station chassis and engaging the backplane connector, be sure to turn off the station power by unplugging the AC or DC power cord, or both.Validating Repairs  After replacing a faulty module with a module that is known to be in good condition, perform the following tests to validate the repair.•If the faulty module was detected as the result of running station diagnostics via the RSS, run the diagnostics again after the repair is made to ensure that the replacement module passes all diagnostic tests.•If the faulty module was detected by an operational failure, perform the operation to ensure that the repair corrected the reported or detected failure.Module Replacement This section discusses the replacement of each of the PDR 3500’s modules and related requirements and considerations.
68P81093C75-O November 30, 2000  9-27Station Control Before Removing the Old Station Control ModuleA new SCM contains settings in a codeplug (EEPROM). Those settings can be configured, using the RSS, after the module has been installed. If the old SCM is capable of communicating with the RSS, the old codeplug can be read from the SCM and saved to disk to be programmed into the new SCM. This is described in the Setup and Connections section of this manual, and in the RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35).If the old SCM is incapable of communicating with the RSS, an archival codeplug (one saved on disk) can be used to program the new SCM. If an archival codeplug is unavailable, the new codeplug will have to be manually configured after installation.Physical Replacement of the Station Control Module1. Turn off the station’s power by unplugging the AC and DC power cords from the top panel.2. Remove the 8 Phillips screws from the edges of the station’s top panel and lift the chassis out of the case.3. Remove the cover plate on the left end of the front of the station by removing two Torx screws from the front of the plate. Remove the four Phillips screws from the side and bottom edges of the plate.4. Pull out the old Control Module by gripping behind its DB-9, RJ-11, and RJ-45 connectors, distributing pressure equally among the connectors.5. Insert the new module. Make sure it is in the cardguides; push it firmly into the chassis until it seats into the card-edge connectors on the backplane. (Do not slam the board against the backplane or push any harder than necessary to seat the connectors.)6. If desired, power up the station while it is still out of the case to make sure the module is securely in place. If the LEDs do not light, are dim, or flash rapidly, one or more modules are not seated properly. Unplug the station before continuing to the next step.7. Reassemble the station by reversing steps 2 and 3.After Installing the New Station Control Module 1. If the codeplug from the old SCM was saved to disk, or if an archival codeplug exists on disk, it should be programmed into the new SCM.
9-28 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OIf no preexisting codeplug is available, the new codeplug must be configured manually using the RSS. See the Setup and Connections section of this manual or the RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35) for details.2. Perform the following alignment procedures as described in the RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35) or the Setup and Connections section of this manual, or both.•Reference Oscillator Calibration•Squelch Adjust •Power Output •Tx Deviation Gain Adjust•Reference Modulation•RSSI CalibrateFor Wireline-equipped stations only:•Tx Wireline•Rx WirelineFor ASTRO stations only:•Simulcast/ASTRO Launch Time OffsetFor 6809 Trunking stations only:•TDATAWirelinePhysical Replacement of the Wireline Module 1.

Make sure it is in the cardguides; push it firmly into the chassis until it seats into the card-edge connectors on the backplane. (Do not slam the board against the backplane or push any harder than necessary to seat the connectors.)7. If desired, power up the station while it is still out of the case to make sure the module is securely in place. The LEDs on the Wireline should blink rapidly, indicating that firmware is transferring from the SCM to the Wireline Module. When the blinking stops, the transfer is complete.If any of the LEDs do not light or are dim, one or more of the modules are not seated properly. Unplug the station before continuing to the next step.8. Reassemble the station by reversing Steps 2 and 3.After Installing the New Wireline Module Perform the following alignment procedures as described in the RSS User’s Guide (part number 68P81085E35):•Rx Wireline•Tx WirelineASTRO Modem Card/V.24 Interface CardPhysical Replacement of the Card 1.

Remove the four Phillips screws from the side and bottom edges of the plate. Remove two more Phillips screws from the bottom of the chassis under the preselector.4. A coaxial cable runs from the receiver’s preselector, through the center wall of the chassis, and to the top panel UHF connector.Disconnect the cable from the preselector and push the loose end of the cable through the center wall so that it is completely clear of the receiver.5. Pull the old receiver out by gripping the tabs protruding past each end of the preselector.6. Insert the new module. Make sure it fits under the metal rails inside the chassis. Push it firmly into the chassis until it seats into the card-edge connectors on the backplane. (Do not slam the board against the backplane or push any harder than necessary to seat the connectors.)7. If desired, power up the station while it is still out of the case to make sure the module is securely in place.If any of the LEDs do not light, are dim, or flash rapidly, one or more of the modules are not seated properly.8. For VHF and UHF stations, tune the preselector using the procedure in the Maintenance subsection, Preselector Field Tuning Procedure. Before continuing to the next step, be sure to unplug the station. 9. Feed the coaxial cable detached in Step 3 back through the opening in the center wall of the chassis and reconnect it to the mini-UHF connector on the preselector.10. Reassemble the station by reversing Steps 2 and 3.After Installing the New Receiver Module Perform the following alignment procedures as described in the RSS User’s Guide (part number 68P81085E35), or in the RSS section of this manual, or in both:•Squelch Adjust•RSSI CalibratePreselector tuning is required for proper performance of the Receiver Module and it should have been performed when installing the module, as described under “Physical Replacement of the Receiver Module.” If the tuning was not performed when the module was installed, perform it now.
68P81093C75-O November 30, 2000  9-31ExciterFrequency Band Considerations When replacing the Exciter Module, it is important to remember the frequency-sensitive nature of the Exciter/Power Amplifier combination. The Exciter and the PA must match according to the model breakdown table in this manual. If an Exciter with a new frequency band is being installed, the corresponding PA must be installed, as described in the Power Amplifier subsection of “Module Replacement.”Physical Replacement of the Exciter Module 1. Turn off the station’s power by unplugging the AC and DC power cords from the top panel.2. Remove the eight Phillips screws from the edges of the station’s top panel and lift the chassis out of the case.3. Disconnect the coaxial cable running to a mini-UHF connector at the front of the Exciter.4. Tilt the chassis up on its back edge; then, from the bottom of the chassis, remove the six Phillips screws holding the Exciter’s mounting plate. Slide the mounting plate out of the front of the chassis. 5. Pull out the old Exciter Module by gripping behind the mini-UHF connector and pulling gently.6. Insert the new module. Make sure it is flat on the bottom of the chassis. Push it firmly into the chassis until it seats into the card-edge connectors on the backplane. (Do not slam the board against the backplane or push any harder than necessary to seat the connectors.)7. If desired, power up the station while it is still out of the case to make sure the module is securely in place.

9-32 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OPower Amplifier Frequency Band Considerations  When replacing the Power Amplifier, it is important to remember the frequency-sensitive nature of the Exciter/Power Amplifier combination. The Exciter and the PA must match according to the model breakdown table in this manual. If a PA with a new frequency band is being installed, the corresponding Exciter must be installed, as described in the Exciter subsection of “Module Replacement.”Of equal importance, the PDR 3500 motherboard contains circuitry which translates between the Exciter from the original Quantar and the PA from the Spectra™ mobile radio. Since the translations depend upon the frequency band of the Exciter and the PA, this circuitry is also frequency-sensitive. The DIP switches on the motherboard must be set according to the frequency of the station in order for the proper translation path to be selected. The DIP switch settings can remain intact if •The band of the new PA matches the one being replaced, and•The Exciter is not being changed.If the PA band or the Exciter band is being changed, the DIP switches must be configured to match the new frequency of the PA and Exciter. Detach the motherboard from the chassis and set the switches as described in the Backplane subsection of “Module Replacement.”Physical Replacement of the Power Amplifier 1. Turn off the station’s power by unplugging the AC and DC power cords from the top panel.2. Remove the eight Phillips screws from the edges of the station’s top panel and lift the chassis out of the case.3. Remove the four Phillips screws from the front, right quadrant of the top panel to release the PA. When removing the fourth screw, support the PA inside the chassis to prevent it from falling.4. Disconnect all four cables between the PA and the station:a.  Unplug the red and black power cable from the PA.b.  Unscrew the mini-UHF connector from the PA.c.  To remove the PA ribbon cable connector, remove the two Torx screws holding the metal clip over the connector. Pull the connector loose from the PA.d.  Unscrew the mini-UHF connector on the remaining cable from the front of the Exciter.
68P81093C75-O November 30, 2000  9-335. Reconnect all four cables removed in Step 4. The ribbon cable connector is keyed so it cannot be attached incorrectly. Remember to reattach the metal clip over the ribbon cable connector.6. Take the sheet of black thermal conductive film that was between the old PA and the chassis and place it on the new PA.7. Place the PA in the chassis and line up the screw holes in the PA and the thermal film with the holes in the top panel of the chassis. (It may be useful to insert a pencil, pen, or small screwdriver through the screw holes in the top panel to aid in aligning the holes in the conductive film with those in the PA.)8. While holding the PA with one hand, start two or more Phillips screws in the top panel to hold the PA in place. Insert the remaining screws and tighten all four.9. Place the chassis back in the case and secure it with the eight Phillips screws around the top panel.After Installing the New Power Amplifier Perform the following alignment procedures as described in the RSS User’s Guide (part number 68P81085E35), or the Setup and Connections section of this manual, or both.•Power OutputPower SupplyPhysical Replacement of the Power Supply 1. Turn off the station’s power by unplugging the AC and DC power cords from the top panel.2. Detach the backplane from the chassis as described in Steps 1 through 7 of the Backplane subsection of “Module Replacement.”3. Remove the four Phillips screws holding the Power Supply to the top panel of the chassis. Pull the PS out of the chassis.4. Disconnect all five wires from the Power Supply.5. Reconnect the wires to the new Power Supply as follows:•Green to GND •Orange to the “H” INPUT •Brown to the “N” INPUT •White to the “POS” OUTPUT •Black to the “NEG” OUTPUT.6. While holding the PS with one hand, start two or more Phillips screws in the top panel to hold the Power Supply in place. Insert the remaining screws and tighten all four.

Finish reassembling the station as described in Steps 8 through 12 of the Backplane subsection of “Module Replacement.”BackplaneBefore Installing the New Backplane The PDR 3500 motherboard contains circuitry which translates between the Exciter from the original Quantar and the PA from the Spectra™ mobile radio. Since the translations depend upon the frequency band of the Exciter and the PA, this circuitry is also frequency-sensitive. For the proper translation path to be selected, the DIP switches located on the motherboard must be set based on the frequency band of the station.Before installing the new Backplane, set its DIP switches according to Table 9.Physical Replacement of the Backplane 1. Turn off the station’s power by unplugging the AC and DC power cords from the top panel.2. Remove the eight Phillips screws from the edges of the station’s top panel and lift the chassis out of the case.3. Remove the cover plate on the left end of the front of the station by removing two Torx screws from the front of the plate and four Phillips screws from the side and bottom edges of the plate.4. Pull the Station Control Module and Wireline Module until they disengage from their respective backplane connectors. The modules need not be completely removed from the chassis.5. On the back of the chassis, remove the six Phillips screws holding the backplane in place.6. Slowly, but firmly, pull the bottom edge of the backplane away from the chassis. Continue pulling until the 80-pin card edge connectors dislodge from the Receiver and Exciter modules. Then pull the backplane down and away from the top panel of the chassis.7. Lay the backplane flat behind the station, and remove all the attached wires.8. If the dip switches on the new backplane have not been set to match the PA/Exciter combination of the station, set them now according to Table 9.Table 9 Motherboard DIP Switch SettingsExciter Frequency Band PA Model Switch 1 Switch 2VHF Range 1 PLD7981 OFF OFFVHF Range 2 PLD7981 ON OFFUHF Range 1 PLE9367 OFF ONUHF Range 2 PLE9369 ON ON

Hold the backplane in position behind the chassis. Ensure the wires from the backplane do not bind against the Power Supply. Slide the top of the board toward the chassis top panel, making sure the two RJ-45 connectors fit into their cutouts.11. Hold the Receiver Module from the front of the chassis, and press the bottom center of the backplane into place against the chassis. Snap the 80-pin connectors onto the Receiver and Exciter.12. While holding the top right portion of the backplane against the chassis, press the Control Module, and then the Wireline Module, into the chassis from the front, until they snap into the backplane.13. Using the six Phillips screws with lock washers, secure the backplane to the chassis.14. Finish reassembling the station by reversing Steps 2 and 3.After Installing the New Power Amplifier Perform the following alignment procedures as described in the RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35), or the Setup and Connections section of this manual, or both:•Power OutputUsing the RSS, run a complete battery of diagnostics to exercise all boards and modules.Preselector Field Tuning Procedure The VHF and UHF Receiver Modules comprise a circuit board and a preselector assembly. Both are secured in a slide-in module housing. The preselector assembly is a 3-pole (UHF) or a 5-pole (VHF) bandpass filter, equipped with tuning slugs to adjust the passband corresponding to the operating frequencies of the station. The preselector assembly must be field-tuned if replaced in the field, or if the station operating frequency (or frequencies) is (are) modified. The tuning procedure follows.IMPORTANT! Tuning for best SINAD response DOES NOT result in optimum tuning of the preselector assembly. You must use this field-tuning procedure to obtain optimum preselector performance.
9-36 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-ORequired Test Equipment The following test equipment is required to properly tune the preselector assembly:•RF Signal Generator: Motorola R2600 Communications Analyzer, R2001 Communications Analyzer (see note), or HP8656A signal generator (or equivalent)•Dip/Peak Monitor: HP435B Power Meter (or equivalent) with HP8484A sensitive power head, Boonton Model 92E with BNC input, or R2001/R2600, using the spectrum analyzer function.•Torque Driver, capable of delivering 12 in. – lb. of torque, and 10 mm deep well socket.•Tuning probe: Motorola Part number 0180763D22, part of TRN7799A tuning kit.•Flat-blade screwdriverNOTE: The R2600 Communications Analyzer can both generate and measure simultaneously. The R2001 may be used for either the generator or monitor function, but not both simultaneously. When using the R2001 as a signal generator, RF signal must be taken from the antenna port.VHF Tuning Procedure Calculating Proper Alignment Frequency Use one of the following two methods to calculate the alignment frequency to be generated by the signal generator.For stations with a single receive frequency, calculate the frequency of the alignment signal as follows:Step 1.  From the site documentation or the RSS, determine the station receive frequency.Step 2.  If the frequency is ≤ 148 MHz (Range 1) or ≤ 156 MHz (Range 2), subtract 250 kHz. Otherwise, note the actual frequency.Example: If the station receive frequency is 134.575 MHz (Range 2), subtract 250 kHz, since the frequency is less than 143 MHz.134.575 MHz - 250 MHz = 134.325 MHz

If the Receiver Module is Range 2, determine the alignment frequency as follows:If the frequency (from Step 2) is < 152 MHz, then the alignment frequency = 151.75 MHz.If the frequency (from Step 2) is > 172 MHz, then the alignment frequency = 172 MHz.Otherwise, use the actual frequency from Step 2.For stations with multiple receive frequencies, calculate the frequencies of the alignment signal as follows:Step 1.  From the site documentation, or the RSS, note the receive frequency for each channel supported by the station.Step 2.  Calculate a midpoint frequency as follows:Fmid = (Fhighest + Flowest) ÷ 2Step 3.  Using Fmid in place of the station receive frequency, perform Step 2 through Step 4 above.Preparing Equipment Step 1.

68P81093C75-O December 1, 2000 10-1Functional Theoryof Operation 10The following functional theory of operation provides an overview of the station circuitry.  For a more thorough functional description of a particular module, refer to the appropriate section of the Quantar User’s Guide (68P81095E05).  Refer to the block diagram in Figure 16. for the following functional theory of operation.Transmitter Circuitry OperationIntroduction The Transmitter Circuitry consists of the following: • Exciter Module • Power Amplifier (PA) Module  These modules combine to produce the modulated, amplified RF signal. The RF signal is transmitted via the station transmit antenna.Exciter Module Operation The Exciter Module is a microprocessor-controlled module, generating a modulated RF signal at the desired transmit frequency. It sends this signal to the Power Amplifier for amplification. The circuitry operates as follows:1. The Synthesizer/Voltage-Control Oscillator (VCO) accepts frequency programming data from the Station Control Module (SCM) via the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus and generates an RF carrier signal at the specified frequency.  The modulation audio signal from the SCM modulates the carrier, resulting in a modulated RF signal at approximately +13dBm. The modulated signal is routed to the Power Amplifier.2. The TX Power Control Circuitry accepts an output power detect voltage from the Power Amplifier and compares this signal to a reference voltage representing the desired output power. Based on the comparison, a power control voltage is generated to control the output power from the PA. This feedback and control loop continually monitors the output power. It adjusts the control voltage to maintain the proper output power from the PA.
10-2 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-OPower Amplifier Module Operation The PDR 3500 uses the mid-power Spectra RF power amplifier (RF PA) board, housed in a heavy-duty, shielded, aluminum heat sink.  The gain of the RF PA board is controlled by the power control voltage from the Exciter Module.The modulated RF signal is amplified by the RF PA and sent to the site transmit antenna.  The transmit path inside the RF PA contains a directional coupler (calibrated at setup), which feeds a DC voltage (proportional to the output power) to the TX Power Control Circuitry in the Exciter Module. This signal serves as the feedback signal in the power control loop.Receiver Circuitry Introduction The Receiver Circuitry performs the following functions:•Accepts receive RF signals from the site receive antenna •Filters and dual conversion •Outputs a digitized receive signal to the Station Control Module.Receiver Module Operation The receive signal is generated from the site receive antenna to a multi-pole, preselector filter which provides highly selective bandpass filtering.  The filtered signal is then amplified and fed to the RF input of the 1st mixer. The 1st mixer combines the filtered signal with an injection signal generated by the Synthesizer/VCO. This results in a 21.45 MHz (VHF), or 73.35 MHz (UHF) 1st IF (intermediate frequency) signal. (The injection signal is determined by frequency programming data from the Station Control Module via the SPI bus.)The 21.45 or 73.35 MHz 1st IF is filtered and routed to a custom receiver IC. This component contains the following circuitry:•2nd injection and mixing •Amplification •A/D (analog to digital) conversion This results in a digitized receive signal. This signal is routed to the Station Control Module as differential data.
68P81093C75-O December 1, 2000  10-3Station Control ModuleIntroduction The Station Control Module (SCM) is the microprocessor-based controller for the station.  Major components include the following: •MC68360 microprocessor, •56002 Digital Signal Processor (DSP) •Two Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) devices (host and DSP).  Station Control Module Operation The Host Microprocessor (µP) serves as the controller for the SCM, operating from the station software stored in FLASH memory. This software determines the system capabilities of the station (analog, ASTRO, SECURENET, etc.).  The Host µP communicates with the station modules and the SCM circuitry via address and data buses, a High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) bus, and a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus. External communications is accomplished using a serial port on the top panel.The DSP and DSP ASIC perform the necessary digital signal processing for the station audio and data signals. The DSP circuitry interfaces with the Receiver Module (receive audio), the Exciter Module (modulation signal), and the Wireline Interface Board (wireline audio).The 2.1 MHz Reference Oscillator generates the reference signal used by the Receiver and Exciter Modules.Wireline Interface BoardIntroduction The Wireline Interface Board (WIB) serves as the interface between the customer telephone lines and the station.  In general, the WIB processes and routes all wireline audio signals between the station and the landline equipment (such as consoles, modems, etc.).  Landline-to-station and station-to-landline audio signals are connected to the WIB via RJ-45 connectors on the top panel of the station.Wireline Interface Board Operation The WIB contains the following: •A microprocessor
10-4 December 1, 2000 68P81093C75-O•Two FLASH memory ICs (which contain the WIB operating software downloaded by the SCM) •An ASIC device to process and route the various audio signalsAnalog, SECURENET, and ASTRO signals are processed as follows:•Analog signals are converted to digital signals and routed to the Station Control Module via the Time Division Multiplex (TDM) bus.•ASTRO and ASTRO CAI data signals are processed by an ASTRO modem card (the daughter board is plugged into the WIB) and sent to/from the SCM via the HDLC bus. (The station operates in transparent mode only, and does not perform encryption or decryption of the ASTRO or ASTRO CAI signal.)• SECURENET encoded signals are processed by the ASIC, sent to/from the microprocessor via the data bus, and sent to/from the Station Control Module microprocessor via the HDLC bus.  (The station operates in transparent mode only, and does not perform encryption or decryption of the SECURENET signal.)NOTE: The WIB is offered in the 4-wire configuration only.Power Supply Module Operation The Power Supply Module is a switching-type power supply which accepts an AC input (85-265 VAC, 49-61 Hz) and generates the 13.8 VDC for the station modules and the power regulation circuitry on the motherboard.  The Power Supply Module is capable of 12 A continuous load and 18 A maximum load.
