Installation Requirements for Compliance with

Radio Frequency (RF) Energy Exposure Safety

Standards

ATTENTION!

This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions, where users have full knowledge

of their exposure and can exercise control over their exposure to meet FCC limits. This radio device is

NOT authorized for general population, consumer, or any other use.

To ensure compliance to RF Energy Safety Standards:

• Install only Motorola approved antennas and accessories.

• Be sure that antenna installation is per Antenna Installation on page 2-11 of this manual.

• Be sure that Product Safety and RF Safety Booklet enclosed with this radio is available to the end user

upon completion of the installation of this radio.

Before using this product, the operator must be familiar with the RF energy awareness information and

operating instructions in the Product Safety and RF Exposure booklet enclosed with each radio (Motorola

publication part number 6881095C99_) to ensure compliance with Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposure

limits.

This radio has a transmitter Time-out Timer that disables the transmitter during a transmission after a pre-

defined time period, which by default is set to 60 seconds.

For a list of Motorola-approved antennas and other accessories, visit the following web site, which lists

approved accessories for your radio model:

ensure optimal performance and compliance with the RF energy exposure limits in the standards

and guidelines listed in the Safety Booklet (Motorola publication part number 68P81095C99_)

provided with the radio:

• The antenna should be mounted outside the building on the roof or a tower if at all possible and

the antenna cable should be earth grounded.

• The radio chassis must be earth grounded and a lightning surge protector should be used in

line with the radio connector and the outdoor antenna. The lightning surge protector should be

earth grounded and located at the point where the antenna cable enters the building.

• The line voltage power supply must have a proper ground connection.

• As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the responsibility of the licensee to manage the

site in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. Also, additional compliance actions

such as site survey measurements, signage, and site access restrictions may be required in

order to ensure that exposure limits are not exceeded.

Figure 1-7 shows a typical setup of a Base/Control Station configuration.

Figure 1-7 Example of a Base/Control Station Configuration

For outdoor antenna installations, proper site grounding and lightning protection are vitally important.

Failure to provide proper lightning protection may result in permanent damage to the radio equipment.

Refer to Motorola Quality Standards Fixed Network Equipment Installation Manual R56 (which can be

obtained by ordering CDROM 9880384V83) for complete information regarding lightning protection.

Chapter 2 Installation Details for Standard

Configurations

2.1 Planning the Installation

The mobile radio operates only in negative ground electrical systems. Before starting the radio

installation, make sure that the ground polarity of the vehicle is correct. Accidentally reversing the

polarity will not damage the radio, but will cause the cable fuses to blow.

Planning is the key to fast, easy radio installation. Before starting the installation, inspect the vehicle

and determine how and where you intend to mount the antenna, radio, and accessories. Plan wire

and cable runs to provide maximum protection from pinching, crushing, and overheating.

2.1.1 Tools Required for Installation

2.1.2 Installation Example

The mobile two-way radio offers various methods of installation, with accessories placed to the

vehicle as desired. The radio can be a dash or remote mount (XPR 5000/XPR 5000e Series models

can only be dash mounted). (See Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2).

Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer’s user manual. The installation

of this device should be completed by an authorized servicer or installer.

2.2 Radio Mounting

The mounting location must be accessible and visible. Select a location that will permit routing the

RF antenna cable as directly as possible.

For new or existing installations, use one of the mounting kits as specified in Table 2-1. Orient the

mounting trunnion as shown in Figure 2-5.

Figure 2-5 Trunnion Orientation for Above or Below Mobile

DO NOT mount the radio on a plastic dashboard without first reinforcing the dashboard; the weight of

the radio may crack or break the dashboard.

DO NOT mount the radio on a flat or concave surface where the radio could be partially submersed in

water. This is especially important if the cab area of the vehicle is cleaned by spraying with water. If the

radio sits in water for a length of time, moisture may seep inside the radio and damage the electronic

components.

DO NOT allow water to stand in recessed areas of vertically mounted radios. Remove any moisture

immediately to prevent it from seeping down into the radio.

2.2.4 Remote Mount with Trunnion

For a remote mount installation, the transceiver may be mounted anywhere in the vehicle, provided

that the installation location is safe, follows the cautions mentioned at the beginning of this section,

and is accessible for servicing/maintenance as well as cabling. A typical mounting location

recommended by Motorola is the vehicle’s trunk. The trunnion provided may still be used to mount

the transceiver, and the mounting process is the same as for the dash mount installation.

See publication 6878397A01 for the MOTOTRBO XPR 4000/XPR 4000e Series mobile radio remote

mount control head installation instructions.

2.3 Power Cable

Route the red radio power cable from the radio to the vehicle’s battery compartment, using accepted

industry methods and standards. Be sure to grommet the firewall hole to protect the cable. Remove

the 15-Amp (part number 6580283E06) or 20-Amp (part number 6580283E07) fuse from the

fuseholder and connect the red lead of the radio power cable to the positive battery terminal using

the hardware provided as shown in Figure 2-12. Connect the black lead to a convenient solid

chassis ground point. DO NOT connect the black lead directly to the battery’s negative terminal.

Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer’s user

manual.

The installation of this device should be completed by an authorized servicer or

installer.

Before making any holes in the trunk for radio mounting, check the vehicle

manufacturer’s user manual for restrictions (e.g. due to the gas tank location).

Installation Details for Standard Configurations Ignition Sense Cable 2-11

2.4 Ignition Sense Cable

Motorola supplies an ignition sense cable and recommends that it be used with every mobile

installation. The ignition sense cable allows the radio to be turned on and off with the vehicle ignition

switch, and allows the radio to “remember” the state of the radio on/off switch, even if it is changed

while the vehicle is off.

• For radio ON/OFF control independent of the ignition switch, connect the red ignition cable (pin

25 of accessory connector) to “battery hot” at the vehicle fuse block (dash mount only).

• For radio ON/OFF control via the ignition switch, connect the red ignition cable to “ignition” at

the fuse block.

The ignition sense cable uses either a 3-Amp (P/N 6500139764) or 4-Amp (P/N 6580283E02) fuse.

For other considerations when connecting the ignition cable, see Basic Service Manuals in Related

Publications on page 1-v.

2.5 Antenna Installation

IMPORTANT NOTE: To assure optimum performance and compliance with RF Energy Safety

standards, these antenna installation guidelines and instructions are limited to

metal-body vehicles with appropriate ground planes and take into account the

potential exposure of back seat passengers and bystanders outside the

vehicle.

NOTE: For mobile radios with rated power of 7 watts or less, the only installation restrictions are to

use only Motorola approved antennas and install the antenna externally on metal body

vehicles. For mobile radios with rated power greater than 7 Watts, always adhere to all the

guidelines and restrictions in Section 2.5.1 below.

2.5.1 Selecting an Antenna Site/Location on a Metal Body Vehicle

1. External Installation - Check the requirements of the antenna supplier and install the vehicle

antenna external to a metal body vehicle in accordance with those requirements.

2. Roof Top - For optimum performance and compliance with RF Energy Safety Standards,

mount the antenna in the center of the roof.

3. Trunk Lid - On some vehicles with clearly defined, flat trunk lids, the antennas of some radio

models (see restrictions below) can also be mounted on the center area of the trunk lid. For

vehicles without clearly defined, flat trunk lids (such as hatchback autos, sport utility vehicles,

and pick-up trucks), mount the antenna in the center of the roof.

BEFORE INSTALLING AN ANTENNA ON THE TRUNK LID,

- Be sure that the distance from the antenna location on the trunk lid will be at least

85 cm (33 inches) from the front surface of the rear seat-back to assure compliance with RF

Energy Safety standards.

- Ensure that the trunk lid is grounded by connecting grounding straps between the trunk lid

and the vehicle chassis.

NOTE: If these conditions cannot be satisfied, then mount the antenna on the roof top.

4. Mounting restrictions for certain radio models:

For all VHF and UHF models, the 1/4 wave antenna & RAD4227_ antenna should be

mounted only in the center area of the roof, not on the trunk lid, to assure compliance with

RF Energy Safety standards.

5. Ensure the antenna cable can be easily routed to the radio. Route the antenna cable as far

away as possible from the vehicle electronic control units and associated wiring.

2-12 Installation Details for Standard Configurations Antenna Installation

6. Check the antenna location for any electrical interference.

7. Make sure the mobile radio antenna is installed at least 30 centimeters (1 foot) away from any

other antenna on the vehicle.

8. For XPR Series Mobile Radio models with GPS using a GPS only or a combined RF/GPS

antenna, ensure that the antenna has a clear view of the sky and that the antenna base with

the GPS receiver is not covered by any metallic or radio frequency absorbing material. Any

non-glass-mount GPS antenna should be positioned next to the RF antenna. Any other

mobile radio antenna should be at least 30 centimeters (1 foot) away from the RF antenna.

NOTE: Any two metal pieces rubbing against each other (such as seat springs, shift levers, trunk and

hood lids, exhaust pipes, etc.) in close proximity to the antenna can cause severe receiver

interference.

2.5.2 Antenna Installation Procedure

1. Mount the antenna according to the instructions provided with the antenna kit. Run the

coaxial cable to the radio mounting location. If necessary, cut off the excess cable and install

the cable connector.

2. Connect the antenna cable connector to the radio antenna connector on the rear of the radio.

3. In case of a GPS model, connect the GPS antenna to the GPS antenna connector on the rear

of the radio.

2.5.3 Antenna Connection

To ensure a secure connection of an antenna cable's mini-UHF plug to a radio's mini-UHF jack, their

interlocking features must be properly engaged. If they are not properly engaged, the system will

loosen.

NOTE: Applying excessive force with a tool can cause damage to the antenna or the connector (e.g.,

stripping threads, deforming the collar or connector, or causing the connector to twist in the

housing opening and break).

Motorola recommends the following sequence to ensure proper attachment of the system (see

Figure 2-14):

Figure 2-14 Mini-UHF Connection

1. Make sure that there is sufficient slack in the antenna cable.

2. Make sure that the collar of the antenna cable plug is loose and does not bind.

3. Slide the collar back against the flange. Insert the antenna cable plug’s pin fully into the radio

jack, but do not engage the threads.

4. Ensure that the plug’s and jack’s interlocking features are fully seated. Check this by grasping

the crimp on the cable jack, rotating the cable, and noting any movement. If the features are

seated correctly, there should be NO movement.

5. Finger-tighten the antenna cable plug’s collar onto the radio’s jack.

6. Give a final tug, by hand, to the collar, and retighten by hand as firmly as possible.

7. Use the rubber-coated pliers to grip the plug’s knurled collar, then turn clockwise to tighten

the collar. It should take 1/4 turn or less. Turning counterclockwise loosens the collar.

NOTE: Overtightening the collar can damage the connector and the radio.

Notes

Chapter 4 Best Practices: Installation & Troubleshooting

In this section are Motorola recommended vehicle installation practices that can address or prevent

many issues, including:

• Radio circuit damage due to over voltage condition

• Radio/Accessories "lock up"

• Radio/Accessories change state/lock-up when radio PTT is depressed

• Radio intermittently resets

• Alternator whine present when transmitting with engine running

• Radio/Accessories turn themselves on/off

4.1 Check Wiring of Ignition and Radio Ignition Sensing

• If it is required to turn the radio on and off via the ignition sense switch, in addition to the control

head’s on/off switch, connect the ignition sense lead to the accessory terminal from the ignition

switch (usually in the vehicle’s fuse panel under accessory or radio).

NOTE: Motorola recommends protecting or isolating the radio’s ignition sense input from voltage spikes

in excess of +/- 40 VDC. Such spikes can be hundreds of volts in amplitude and are common in

larger vehicles (utility trucks, buses and etc.), especially when the source is common to a

solenoid coil. A triggerable oscilloscope is required to determine the existence of such spikes as

most voltmeters cannot measure in short duration (< 1 msec). If the condition of the intended

ignition sense source is unknown, Motorola recommends isolating the source from the radio with

a relay or the use of a suppression diode wired between the source and ground. Any high current

suppression diode (i.e. MR2535) with a breakdown voltage of between 18 and 40 volts will

suffice. A suitable diode kit is available from Motorola parts, kit number HLN6325_.

• If it is required to have the radio power up only via the control head’s on/off switch, then connect

the ignition sense lead directly to the positive terminal of the battery. This will mean the ignition

sense will always be ignored and a re-wiring will be necessary in the future if the operator

chooses any ignition sense CPS setting.

4-2 Best Practices: Installation & Troubleshooting

4.2 Check Physical Installation of Radio Ground and Radio Accessory

Wiring

• Take care to scrape away paint on the chassis at the place where the ground connection is to

be made, and try to keep the ground lead as short as possible.

• Verify that the A+ lead (red) is connected directly to the positive terminal of the battery and

the ground lead (black) is connected to the vehicle’s chassis using as short of a length of

wire as is practical.

• For vehicles that have other types of electronic equipment installed (lights, flashers,

computers siren/PA and etc.), use a separate ground for the mobile radio equipment.

• Make sure that the mobile radio antenna is the minimum required distance (three feet) from

the mobile radio equipment to prevent radio frequency interference (RFI) from interfering

with the radio and/or accessories.

• Do not coil up any excess length of the A+ (red) lead. Doing this may cause a large transient

voltage to be produced when there is a high current drain (e.g. during transmit). This could

cause the radio to reset when the push-to-talk (PTT) is depressed.

• Do not coil up any excessive length of antenna cable, if possible. It may affect the radio’s

receive performance.

4.3 Improve the Electrical Quality of the Power and Ignition Lines

• Use a relay to isolate the vehicle’s ignition switch point (ACC) from the radio’s ignition sense

point. Control this relay from the vehicle’s ignition switch point (ACC). Supply a cleaner

voltage from the positive terminal of the battery into the relay, which will now be attached to

the radio’s ignition sense point. Now the ACC line toggles the relay, instead of directly

toggling the radios ignition sense line.

• Install a Power Line Filter between the A+ lead and the positive terminal of the battery. This is

intended to filter the battery power applied to the transmitter power amplifiers. Pay extra

caution to this because the series filter will introduce a negative spike when the radio

transmits that may cause problems with radio operation.

• For vehicles that use electromechanical relays to control external devices (lights, motors,

switch boxes and etc.), these relay circuits should be isolated as best as possible from the

mobile radio equipment. Also, diode suppression should be used across the relay contacts to

minimize the noise produced by the collapsing magnetic field.

• If the ignition sense switch is to be used, make sure that there is not a large voltage drop

between the A+ point (usually the positive terminal of the battery) and the ignition sense

point. In general, the voltage difference between these two points, should not be greater than

1.5 volts when all accessories/air-conditioner, etc. are turned on. Refer to the Basic Service

Manual for specifications for minimum and maximum voltage levels. Typical battery voltage

levels are 13.6V +/- 20%.

Best Practices: Installation & Troubleshooting 4-3

4.4 Jump-Start the Vehicle

The state of your radio prior to needing a jump-start may be unknown, and the radio may attempt to

return to its last state (radio ON), when doing a jump-start. Therefore, Motorola recommends the

following steps be taken before jump-starting any vehicle containing a radio.

1. Locate the ignition sense line and the main power leads (thick red wire) near the battery

positive terminal.

NOTE: These lines are fused. In the event these lines are not fused (add the appropriate fuse in line)

use whatever tools necessary to physically disconnect the ignition sense and power lines

from the battery terminal.

2. Open up the fuse holders and remove the fuses out of the kits.

3. Re-tighten the fuse holders but without the fuses to insure that ignition sense and power lines

do not interfere with any moving parts.

4. Proceed with the jump-start routine as described by your vehicle owner’s manual.

5. Once the jump-start process is complete, re-install the fuses into their holders.

4.5 Eliminate Noise/Howling from PA Speaker

1. Refer to Section 2.1.2 for recommended methods of installation available for the mobile

two-way radio, with accessories placed to the vehicle as desired.

2. Refer to Figure 2-3 and Figure 2-4 for the wiring diagrams for the recommended

configurations.

Do not jump-start vehicle with radio power or ignition sense cables connected.

Damage to the radio and/or accessories may result.
