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) C95.11999 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
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.

Introduction
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 46 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.

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

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.

System Applications
Local 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. Doubleshielded coaxial cables must be used from the repeater to the
duplexer.
Repeater RA or Cross
Band Repeater
Operation
The 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. The repeaters are connected together using the
wireline port on each repeater. The cables are terminated in RJ-45
connectors.

Setup and Connections
Programming with
RSS
Introduction
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 EIA232 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.

Connect one end of the cable to COM1 on the PC and the other end
to the 9-pin connector labeled “RSS” on the top panel of the
PDR 3500.
Using the RSS
For information on starting the RSS, configuring screen colors,
setting up the PC serial port, and general RSS use, refer to the
Quantar RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35).
Status Panel
The “Status Panel” screen in the RSS can be used to change the
channel of the PDR 3500, view parameters for the current channel,
and view the status of several station functions.
From the Main Menu, press “F2-Service.” Next, press “F6-Status
Panel…” and then F2 again to arrive at the Status Panel display.
The Status Panel shows the current channel number and the Transmit
and Receive frequencies for the current channel. In the middle of the
screen, the states of several station components are shown, mirroring
LED indicators on the front of the station modules. For the PDR 3500,
the “AC” field indicates whether the station’s internal DC voltage is
above the threshold required for full transmit power. Near the
bottom of the screen, the most recent status message is displayed.
NOTE: The date and time of the status message will be
incorrect if the station has lost power since the
internal clock was last set.
The current channel can be changed by pressing F2 to increment the
channel number and Shift+F2 to decrement the channel number.
Other available commands are listed in the soft menu at the bottom
of the screen and include resetting, access-disabling, and keying/
dekeying the station.
For a complete description of the Status Panel fields and commands,
please refer to the Quantar RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35).
Hardware Configuration
From the Main Menu, press “F2-Service.” Press F2 again to arrive at
the Hardware Configuration screen.
1. The first field to verify is the Hardware Platform field. The
PDR 3500 is designed using the Quantar profile and will not
operate properly in any other mode.
2. The next field to verify is the System Type field. This field
should be set to “Conventional.” The PDR 3500 does not operate
as an ASTRO-TAC Receiver or DBS Base Station.
7-2
68P81093C75-A
3. Next verify that the Rx Freq Band 1 and Tx Freq Band fields
list the correct ranges for receiver and transmitter.
NOTE: Rx Freq Band 2 should be set to “NONE.”
4. The PA Power Rating field should be set based on Table 5. All
PDR 3500 transmitter ranges except UHF R3 and R4 use the
Quantar low-power station profile. However, there is no lowpower UHF R3 or R4 Quantar, so the high-power profiles are
used for those ranges.
Table 5. RSS Settings for PA Power Rating
Transmitter Band
RSS PA Power Rating
VHF R1 (5-30 W)
VHF R2 (5-30 W)
UHF R1 (5-30 W)
UHF R2 (5-30 W)
25 Watts
UHF R3 (5-30 W)
110 Watts
UHF R4 (5-25 W)
100 Watts
800 MHz (5-22 W)
20 Watts
NOTE: Since high-power Quantar profiles are used for UHF
R3 and UHF R4 PDR 3500’s, which put out 30 and
25 watts respectively, Table 6 must be used to
translate from actual power output to the power
levels specified in RSS. In particular, the table must
be used for Power Out alignment and configuration
of Channel Information. The table is located in the
Alignment section of this manual.
5. Check that the Power Supply field shows “AC HIGH.” This
setting remains the same regardless of whether the PDR 3500 is
running off of AC or DC power.
NOTE: Older units may require the Power Supply field to be
set to “AC LOW.” If this is the case, the station will
report a mismatch when validating the hardware
configuration as described below. If such an error is
reported, change the Power Supply field to “AC
LOW” and repeat the validation.
6. If the unit is equipped with a Wireline Card, verify that the
Wireline field is set to “4-WIRE” or “8-WIRE” as appropriate.
Once the Hardware Configuration screen matches the installed
station hardware, press F8 to validate the configuration. A popup
message will notify the user of any errors in the configuration. For a
complete description of the Hardware Configuration fields, please
refer to the Quantar RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35).
68P81093C75-A

Channel Information
From the Main Menu, press F4. Press F4 again to arrive at the
Channel Information Screen. From this screen, the user may
configure the TX and RX frequencies, RF power out, modulation
type, and the various channel traits for up to 16 channels.
1. In this screen, first set the Rx1 and Tx frequencies to the proper
values.
NOTE: The Rx2 frequency is set to 0.00000 MHz and cannot
be edited. This is because the PDR 3500 does not
support 2 receivers.
The station will automatically calculate the Tx Idle Frequency
based on the TX-RX spacing for the channel. In most
applications, the TX Idle Frequency will be the same as the Tx
Frequency. However, in case of portable or mobile radios
unsquelching near the PDR 3500, adjust the Tx Idle Frequency
to the Tx Frequency -6.25kHz.
2. Set the modulation type to either Analog, ASTRO, ASTRO CAI,
Analog/ASTRO CAI, or CAI RX WIDE DEV.
3. Move to page 2 of the Channel Information Screen by pressing
the Page Down key. Set the Normal Tx Power Out to the
desired power level, unless the station being programmed is
UHF R3 or UHF R4. If the station transmitter is UHF R3 or
UHF R4, the power output must be translated using Table 6 due
to a difference between the power range in RSS and the actual
power range of the station.
All bands except UHF R3 and UHF R4 use the low power
Quantar station profile, meaning the station is RSS programmed
as a low power station, and the actual output power of the station
matches what is programmed in RSS. For UHF R3 and UHF R4,
however, there is no low power Quantar profile, so the high
power profile is used. Thus, all power settings in RSS for those
bands are based on a range of 20-120W for R3 and 20-110W for
R4. Since the actual output power of the PDR 3500 is 5-30W for
R3 and 5-25W for R4, Table 6 must be used to translate actual
power into RSS power. The “Actual Power” column corresponds
to the power out of the PDR 3500 while the “RSS Power”
column corresponds to power levels to be entered in RSS during
the alignment process.
For example, to set a UHF R3 station to transmit at 15 watts,
“60” should be entered in the Normal Tx Power Out field of
RSS, as specified in Table 6.

4. The Battery Backup field specifies the output power of the
station when a low DC supply voltage is detected by the station.
This field is intended primarily for use in DC-powered
applications such as running off a car battery.
The Battery Backup setting should be 10 watts or less and
should typically be lower than the Normal setting. The station
will switch from the Normal to the Battery Backup power
setting when A+ on the backplane drops below approximately 12
volts for UHF R4 or approximately 11 volts for all other ranges.
NOTE: Because the PDR 3500 can draw up to 10 amps
during high-power transmission, there can be a
significant drop in voltage through a DC power cable.
If the station reverts to low-power mode while
operating off of DC, a shorter DC cable may help.
5. In DC-powered applications, the Over Air and Over Wireline
Alarm Tone fields specify whether the station will transmit an
alert tone when a low-voltage condition is detected. Setting
either of these fields to “ENABLED” will cause the station to
periodically transmit a beep via that path (air or wireline) while
operating at the Battery Backup power setting. See the
Interpreting Alarm Tones heading of the Troubleshooting
section of this manual for more information.
For a more complete description of the Channel Information fields,
please refer to the Quantar RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35).
Alignment
From the Main Menu, press “F2-Service.” Now press “F3” to arrive
at the Alignment Menu. From this menu, the user may align the RF
Power Out, RSSI, Station Squelch, and BER. Before performing any
alignments, at least one channel must be programmed as described
under the Channel Information heading.
For instructions on performing Rx or Tx Wireline Alignment, please
refer to the Quantar RSS User’s Guide (68P81085E35).
NOTE: Before performing any alignment procedures, first
dekey the station and “Access Disable” the repeater
as shown in Step 1 below.
1. Access Disable:

no modulation, and set the frequency to PDR 3500 receive
frequency.
4. With the Analyzer RF turned on, make sure the value shown
in the RSS screen is –90 dBm. If it is not, type in “–90
dBm.”
5. Press F8 to save the calibration.
3. Power Out:
The output power of the PDR 3500 is aligned to a predetermined
reference level near the upper limit of the station. This level is
the same irrespective of the desired output power of the station,
and is specified for each frequency band based on Table 7.

The power output alignment process is basically a feedback
loop: The station attempts to transmit at the alignment power
level from Table 7. The user checks the power on a wattmeter
and tells the station what power it is actually putting out. The
station then adjusts its output power to get closer to the
alignment power. This process is repeated for the desired level of
accuracy.
1. In the Alignment Menu Screen, tab over to the TX Power
field and press F2 to perform the alignment.
2. For this procedure, connect the TX UHF-type connector on
the station top panel to the RF input of either a Motorola
68P81093C75-A
7-7
R-2670 Communications Analyzer, or to the input of an RF
power meter. The duplexer is bypassed for this
alignment.
3. Press F6 to keyup the station.
4. Check the output power level shown on the R2670 or RF
power meter.
5. Press F9 to dekey the station.
6. Enter the power from the meter in the field shown in RSS,
or for a UHF R3 or UHF R4 station, enter the translated
RSS Power from Table 6. See the Channel Information
heading and Table 6 for more information on power
translation.
7. Press F7 for the PDR 3500 to adjust the PA power output
level.
8. Once the unit adjusts the power (about 2 seconds), again
keyup the station and read the RF power from the meter,
then dekey the station.
9. Repeat steps 3 through 8 until the power output is as close
to the alignment power from Table 7 as possible. If the
power output will not adjust properly, press F4 to initialize
the PA and restart the alignment procedure.
10. Press F8 to save the settings to the station codeplug.
11. Exit the Power Alignment screen by pressing F10, then key
the station using the top-panel PTT switch. Verify that the
power being put out is what is programmed in the station
codeplug.
NOTE: It is not necessary to dekey the station after each
power reading, however if the station is keyed
continuously it must periodically be given time to
cool to ensure proper alignment. If at any point the
station has remained keyed for over 1 minute, it is
recommended to dekey it and allow it to cool for
approximately 30 seconds before continuing with the
alignment procedure.
4. Squelch:
1. From the Alignment Menu, tab over to the Squelch Adjust
field and press F2 to perform the alignment. The Squelch
control bar is shown in the center of the screen.

RF Cabling
Connections
Introduction
The transmit and receive antenna RF connections may be made in
one of two fashions depending on the system application.
• Separate TX and RX antennas.
The PDR 3500 top panel has two UHF-type connectors: one for
RX, and one for TX. In this configuration there is a separate
antenna for each connector.
• Duplexer
Using this configuration, only one antenna is required for both
transmit and receive. The duplexer is mounted to the station top
panel and has a single N-type connector for the antenna. An
N-to-UHF adapter is provided.
Separate RX and TX
Connectors
In order to use two antennas, first disconnect the duplexer cables (if
equipped). Connect the Rx antenna to the UHF connector labeled
“RX” on the top panel, and the Tx antenna to the UHF connector
labeled “TX” (Figure 2).
Duplexer
The duplexer allows the PDR 3500 to use a single antenna for both
transmit and receive.
1. Connect the UHF connector labeled “RX” on the station top
panel, to the N-type connector labeled “RX” on the duplexer.
2. Connect the top panel UHF connector, labeled “TX,” to the
N-type connector labeled “TX” on the duplexer.
3. Connect the antenna UHF-type connector to the connector
labeled “ANT” on the duplexer.
NOTE: To assure optimal performance and that human
exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy
is within guidelines, the antenna should be mounted
as described in Section 2, Safety and General
Information, under Fixed Site Antennas.

Troubleshooting
Introduction
This section provides troubleshooting recommendations and
procedures for the PDR 3500 and associated ancillary equipment.
Troubleshooting
Overview
The troubleshooting procedures and supporting diagrams allow the
service technician to isolate station faults to the module/assembly
level, or to a limited portion of the motherboard circuitry.
The following information is included:
• Alarm indicators and their functions
• Troubleshooting flow charts
• Module replacement procedures
• Post-repair procedures: Performing alignment after replacing
defective modules
Recommended Test
Equipment
Follow this list of recommended test equipment when performing
troubleshooting procedures on the PDR 3500 and ancillary
equipment:
Test Equipment List
• Motorola R2001 or R2600 Series Communications Analyzer (or
equivalent)
• PC with RSS program
• In-Line Wattmeter (Motorola S-1350, or equivalent)
• Dummy Load (50Ω, station wattage or higher)
• Handset/Microphone with PTT switch (TMN6164, or
equivalent)
Troubleshooting
Procedures
68P81093C75-A
The troubleshooting and repair philosophy employs Field
Replaceable Unit (FRU) substitution. The PDR 3500 is comprised of
self-contained modules (FRUs). Replacing faulty modules should
bring the station back to normal operation.
9-1
Many of the troubleshooting procedures require the use of the
Motorola-supplied Radio Service Software (RSS) since the PDR
3500 is computer-controlled, employing state-of-the-art signal
processing. The RSS operates on a PC (or compatible), with RS-232
communication port capability. The RSS allows the technician to
access alarm logs, run diagnostics, and set up the equipment for
various audio and RF tests. Complete details on the operation of the
RSS are provided in the RSS User’s Guide (manual number
68P81085E35).

Interpreting Alarm
Alert Tones
Introduction
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.
Example 1: Single Alarm (#3)
beep...beep....beep .................................................................................................[repeats]
Alarm #3

Verifying Transmitter
Circuitry
Introduction
While 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 transmitter
circuitry. 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
• Intermediate Power Amplifier Module (800 MHz stations only)
• Power Supply Module
• 2.1 MHz Reference Oscillator Circuitry
• Transmitter-related circuitry on the Station Control Module (SCM)
and Backplane board
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.

Step 3. 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
- Intermediate Power Amplifier Module failure
(800 MHz stations only)
- 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 backplane
Step 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), align 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
9-12
68P81093C75-A
If the station still does not generate rated power, suspect the
following:
- Power Amplifier Module failure
- Intermediate Power Amplifier Module failure
(800 MHz stations only)
- Exciter Module failure
- Loose or faulty Exciter-to-PA RF cable
- Faulty forward voltage or control voltage
translation circuitry on backplane
Step 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 or IPA module
(800 MHz stations only).
• 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 Module
Step 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 Module
Step 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.
68P81093C75-A
9-13
• If the proper display is not obtained, suspect faulty
SCM or Exciter Module
Step 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.
• Remove test equipment.
• Restore the station to normal service.
• Return to the trouble shooting flow chart to resume
the troubleshooting sequence.
Verifying Receiver
Circuitry
Introduction
While 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 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)
9-14
68P81093C75-A
IMPORTANT!
Verifying Receiver
Circuitry Procedure
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. Connect test equipment by performing Step 1 through
3 shown in Figure 5.
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 3 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 signal
Step 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

Step 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)
• 800 MHz: 0.30 µV (-117.5 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 cable
NOTE: 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 6.)

Step 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 6B.
• 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 6B.)
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 dB
• 800 MHz: 1.5 dB
If the difference is greater, suspect the following:
• Duplexer receive and transmit ports are reversed
• Loose or damaged cables between the duplexer and
the station
68P81093C75-A
9-19
• 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.)
Step 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 and duplexer transmit
frequencies do not match. 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 (DigitalCapable Stations)
Introduction
While 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
9-20
68P81093C75-A
• Power Supply Module
• 2.1 MHz Reference Oscillator Circuitry
• Receiver-related circuitry in the Station Control Module (SCM)
The 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 overthe-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 top panel-to-preselector RF cable
• Faulty R2670-to-station RF cable
Step 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)
68P81093C75-A
9-21
• UHF: 0.35 µV (-116 dBm)
• 800 MHz: 0.30 µV (-117.5 dBm)
If you are injecting RF through a duplexer, change the
R2670 injection signal level to:
• VHF: 0.29 µV (-117.7 dBm)
• UHF: 0.43 µV (-114.4 dBm)
• 800 MHz: 0.35 µV (-116 dBm)
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.
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 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.

Module 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
Information
WARNING: 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.
Anti-Static Precaution
The station circuitry contains many C-MOS and other staticsensitive 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.
CAUTION: DO NOT insert or remove station modules with power applied. This may result in
damage to the modules.
• 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.
68P81093C75-A
9-25
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 Modules
Before 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.
Station Control
Before Removing the Old Station Control Module
A 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
Module
9-26
1. 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.
68P81093C75-A
3. Remove the cover plate on the left end of the front of the station
by removing the two screws from the front of the plate, then
removing 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.
If 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 Calibrate

edges of the plate.
4. Pull out the old Wireline Module by gripping its front, right
corner (where there are no parts on the board).
5. Set all jumpers on the replacement board to match those on the
faulty board. These include the following:
• Input/ouput impedance matching jumpers
• Two-wire/four-wire select jumper
• DC remote control selection jumpers
6. 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.)
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

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 the two screws from the front of the plate, then
removing the four Phillips screws from the side and bottom
edges of the plate. In VHF and UHF stations only, remove two
more Phillips screws from the bottom of the chassis under the
preselector.
4. A coaxial cable runs from a mini-UHF connector at the front of
the receiver, through the center wall of the chassis, and to the
top panel UHF connector.
Disconnect the cable from the receiver and push the loose end
of the cable through the center wall so that it is completely clear
of the receiver.
5. If the station is 800 MHz, pull the receiver mounting plate from
its position on top of the receiver out of the chassis.
6. Pull the old receiver out by gripping the tabs protruding past
each end of the preselector for VHF and UHF stations, or by
gripping the mini-UHF connector for 800 MHz stations.
7. Insert the new module. Make sure it sits flat against the bottom
of the chassis. Push it firmly into the chassis until it seats into
the card-edge connector on the backplane. (Do not slam the

procedure in the Maintenance subsection, Preselector Field
Tuning Procedure. Before continuing to the next step, be sure
to unplug the station.
11. 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 Calibrate
Preselector 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.
Exciter
Frequency 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. For 800 MHz stations, also unplug
the SMB connector at the left end of the IPA (output to the PA)
and the 3-pin connector at the rear of the IPA module. If there is
not enough room to disconnect this cable, it may alternatively
be disconnected in the next step when the Exciter mounting
plate has been partially extracted from the chassis.
9-30
68P81093C75-A
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 miniUHF 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 cardedge 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 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.
8. Reassemble the station by reversing Steps 2 through 4.
After Installing the New
Exciter Module
Perform the following alignment procedures as described in the RSS
User’s Guide (part number 68P81085E35):
• Tx Deviation Gain Adjust

Physical Replacement
of the IPA
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 form the edges of the station’s
top panel and lift the chassis out of the case.
3. 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.
4. Disconnect the coaxial cables running to each end of the IPA
module. Also disconnect the 3-pin connector at the rear of the
IPA module. The Exciter mounting plate may need to be
partially extracted from the chassis in order to remove the
cables.
68P81093C75-A
9-31
5. Slide the Exciter mounting plate out of the chassis with the IPA
module still attached.
6. Remove four Phillips screws from the corners of the IPA
module, and lift the module off of the Exciter mounting plate.
7. Set the new IPA module in place on the plate, making sure the
3-pin header is towards the rear of the station.
8. Slide the Exciter mounting plate back into the chassis,
reattaching the 3 cables removed in Step 4.
9. At this point, the station may be powered up while it is still out
of the case to make sure the new IPA module is functioning
properly. Unplug the station before continuing to the next step.
10. Reassemble the station by reversing Steps 2 and 3.
After Installing the
New IPA Module
Perform the following alignment procedures as described in the
Setup and Connections section of this manual:
• Power Output
Power 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.”

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. For VHF and UHF stations, unscrew the mini-UHF
connector on the remaining cable from the front of the
Exciter. For 800 MHz stations, unplug the SMB connector
on the cable going to the left end of the IPA module. To
access the connector, it may be necessary to partially slide
out the Exciter mounting plate as described in the
Intermediate PA replacement subsection.
6. 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.
7. Take the sheet of black thermal conductive film that was
between the old PA and the chassis and place it on the new PA.
8. 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.)
9. 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.
68P81093C75-A

Backplane
Before 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 12.

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. 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.
4. Remove the cover plate on the left end of the front of the station
by removing two screws from the front of the plate, then
removing the four Phillips screws from the side and bottom
edges of the plate. For VHF and UHF stations, also remove the
two screws under the Receiver’s preselector.
5. Pull the Station Control Module and Wireline Module (if
applicable) away from the backplane until they disengage from
their backplane connectors (approximately 1/2"). The modules
need not be completely removed from the chassis.
6. For non-800 MHz stations, a coaxial cable runs from the
receiver’s preselector through the center wall of the chassis.
Disconnect the cable from the preselector and push the loose
end of the cable through the center wall so that it is clear of the
receiver.

7. Pull the Receiver and Exciter Modules away from the
backplane until they disengage from the backplane card edge
connectors (approximately 1/2").
NOTE: Be careful to not put any tension on the coaxial
cables between the Exciter, PA, and IPA (for 800
MHz). If necessary, disconnect one or more of the
cables as described in the Exciter Module
replacement subsection.
8. On the back of the chassis, remove the six Phillips screws
holding the backplane in place. Pull the backplane down and
away from the chassis.
9. Disconnect all of the wires and cables from the backplane.
10. 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.
11. Attach all the wires to the new backplane as shown in Figure
10. Interconnect Diagram.
12. Hold the new backplane in position behind the chassis. Ensure
the wires from the backplane do not bind against the Power
Supply or Exciter modules. Slide the top of the board toward
the chassis top panel, making sure the two RJ-45 connectors fit
into their cutouts in the top panel, and push the backplane flat
against the back of the chassis.
13. Start the six Phillips screws with lock washers to hold the
backplane in place, but do not tighten them.
14. While applying opposing pressure to the backplane on the back
of the chassis, push the Receiver, Exciter, Station Control, and
Wireline (if applicable) modules back into the chassis until they
snap into the card edge connectors on the backplane. (Do not
slam the modules against the backplane or push any harder than
necessary to seat the connectors.)
15. Reattach any cables which were removed from the Receiver,
Exciter, or IPA.
16. Tighten the six Phillips screws holding the backplane to the
chassis.
17. At this point, the station may be powered up while it is still out
of the case to make sure the new backplane is correctly attached
and functioning properly. If any of the LEDs do not light, are
dim, or flash rapidly, one or more of the modules are not seated
properly. Unplug the station before continuing to the next step.
18. Reassemble the station by reversing Steps 2 through 4.

After Installing the New
Backplane
Perform the following alignment procedures as described in the
Setup and Connections section of this manual:
• Power Output
Using 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!
Required Test
Equipment
Tuning for best SINAD response DOES NOT result in optimum
tuning of the preselector assembly. You must use this fieldtuning procedure to obtain optimum preselector performance.
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 screwdriver
NOTE: 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
Step 3. If Receiver Module is Range 1, determine the
alignment frequency as follows:
If the frequency (from Step 2) is < 134 MHz, then the
alignment frequency = 133.75 MHz.
If the frequency (from Step 2) is > 152 MHz, then the
alignment frequency = 152 MHz.
Otherwise, use the actual frequency from Step 2.
Step 4. 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.
9-38
68P81093C75-A
Step 2. Calculate a midpoint frequency as follows:
Fmid = (Fhighest + Flowest) ÷ 2
Step 3. Using Fmid in place of the station receive frequency,
perform Step 2 through Step 4 above.
Preparing Equipment
Step 1. Make sure the Receiver Module (with the Preselector
Assembly) is installed in a functional PDR 3500.
Step 2. Remove the chassis from its case by removing the
eight Phillips screws from the edges of the station’s
top panel.
Step 3. Remove the two Torx screws from the Receiver
Module front panel and remove the four Phillips
screws. Remove the panel.
Step 4. De-tune the preselector as follows:
If the alignment frequency (calculated in the previous
section) is greater than 148 MHz (Range 1), or
greater than 156 MHz (Range 2), turn the five tuning
screws in (clockwise) until 1/8" protrudes past each of
the tension nuts.
If the alignment frequency is less than, or equal to
148 MHz (Range 1), or 156 MHz (Range 2), back out
(counterclockwise) the five tuning screws until 3/4"
protrudes past each of the tension nuts.
Step 5. Using the torque driver and deep-well socket, tighten
the five tension nuts on the adjustment screws to
6 in. – lb.
Step 6. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 13.

Step 4. If the Receiver Module is Range 3, determine the
alignment frequency as follows:
If the frequency (from Step 1) is > 492 MHz, then the
alignment frequency = 492 MHz.
If the frequency (from Step 1) is < 472 MHz, then the
alignment frequency = 472 MHz.
Otherwise, use the actual frequency from Step 1.
Step 5. If the Receiver Module is Range 4, determine the

Functional Theory
of Operation
10
The 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 17 for the following functional theory of operation.
Transmitter Circuitry
Operation
Introduction
The Transmitter Circuitry consists of the following:
• Exciter Module
• Intermediate Power Amplifier (IPA) Module (800 MHz stations
only)
• 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 or, in
800 MHz stations, to the Intermediate Power Amplifier. 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, or, in 800 MHz
stations, to the Intermediate 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.
68P81093C75-A
10-1
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.
Intermediate Power
Amplifier Module
Operation (800 MHz
stations only)
The 800 MHz PDR 3500 uses a custom, 50Ω input and output,
variable-gain Intermediate Power Amplifier to boost the RF signal
from the Exciter Module to the final Power Amplifier Module. The
RF input to the IPA from the Exciter can vary from +13 to +16 dBm,
and the IPA is factory-tuned to provide an RF output of
approximately +21 dBm to the PA.
The IPA contains an RF amplifier IC, a voltage regulator and
potentiometer used to provide a control voltage to the IC, and
impedance-matching circuitry. A 3-wire cable carries +5V, ground,
and PTT signals from the backplane to the IPA. The IPA is mounted
on top of the Exciter bracket and is RF shielded.
Power 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 from the Exciter or IPA (in 800 MHz
stations) 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
10-2
The receive signal is generated from the site receive antenna to a
multi-pole, preselector filter which provides highly selective
bandpass filtering. In VHF and UHF stations, the preselector is
tunable and is mounted to the front of the main Receiver module. In
800 MHz stations, the preselector is fixed and is internal to the
Receiver.
68P81093C75-A
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 and 800 MHz) 1st IF (intermediate
frequency) signal. VHF and UHF receivers use high-side injection;
800 MHz receivers use low-side injection. (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.
Station Control
Module
Introduction
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.
68P81093C75-A
10-3
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
Board
Introduction
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
• Two FLASH memory ICs (which contain the WIB operating
software downloaded by the SCM)
• An ASIC device to process and route the various audio signals
Analog, 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.
10-4
68P81093C75-A
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.

Control Voltage Translation: Vo = 1.38 • Vi + 3.46.
When the Exciter is not present, Q6 grounds the control voltage to
prevent the PA from keying. When the Exciter is present, J9-73 is
grounded, turning Q6 off and enabling the control voltage.
Q4 and Q5 provide keyed 9.6V to the PA when PTT is detected.
R61 biases Q5 to turn off at a lower gate voltage.
Power Supply feedback A/D converter.
Low DC voltage detection circuitry with hysteresis. With switch 4
OFF, U16 pin 8 goes low when VDC drops below 11.0V and goes
back high when VDC returns to 11.36V. With switch 4 ON, the
thresholds become 12.1V and 12.5V, respectively. R99 through
R102 are necessary because U22 operates at 9.6V.
Power Supply SPI bus address recognition. Address is 011001.
Power/Tx LED driver circuit. The operational amplifier acts as a
comparator to detect forward voltage from the PA. If forward voltage
is present, the red LED is turned on, otherwise the green LED is
turned on.
Circuit to OR the PTT signals from the Station Control Module and
the top-panel PTT/reset switch. C107, in concert with R55, serves
to debounce the switch.
Forward Voltage Translation. U12, U19, and peripheral circuitry
translate the Forward Voltage (Vfwd) from the PA to the Exciter. The
appropriate translation circuit is selected by the positions of
switches 1, 2, and 3 of S1. The equations implemented are as
follows:

These op-amps are part of the forward voltage
translation. They subtract 0.6V from the forward
voltage and serve as buffers.
11 PA Identification. U11 and U17 select the PA ID
resistors read by the Exciter to determine the
frequency band of the PA and the backplane DIP
switch settings. Do-not-place resistors are
included for possible future use and should not be
placed in normal applications.
12 Temperature Voltage Translation: U13, U18, U3,
and peripheral circuitry translate the Temperature
Voltage (V temp) from the PA to the Exciter. The
appropriate translation circuit is selected by the
positions of switches 1, 2, and 3 of S1. The
equations implemented are as follows:

A+
L14 and C8 function as a low-pass filter to block
interference at the switching frequency of U6
(500kHz) from reaching A+ and getting out of the
station on AC or DC power wires. The filter is
necessary for the station to meet FCC guidelines
for line conducted emissions. R86 and R87 allow
the filter to be bypassed if necessary in future
designs, but in normal use, R86 should not be
placed, and R87 should be a 0Ω jumper.
R56 and R57 are included to provide for a
unidirectional crosspatch between stations using a
single RJ-45 cable. In normal use, the resistors
should not be placed.
W1 is a connection for Ethernet. The ground on
W1 should remain isolated from chassis ground.
M1 through M25 are for future addition of a MRTI
connector.
