Notes

Chapter 1 Pre-Installation Considerations

Proper installation ensures the best possible performance and reliability of the MOTOTRBO

Repeater. Pre-installation planning is required. This includes considering the mounting location of

the repeater in relation to input power and antennas. Also consider the site environmental conditions,

the particular mounting method (several available), and required tools and equipment.

If this is the first time this type of equipment is being installed, it is highly recommended that the

user read:

• this entire installation section before beginning the actual installation, and

• the Motorola Quality Standard Fixed Network Equipment Installation manual, R56

(6881089E50), specifically refer to the information on ground connection for lightning

protection.

1.1 Installation Overview

The following information is an overview for installing the MOTOTRBO Repeater and ancillary

equipment.

• Plan the installation, paying particular attention to environmental conditions at the site,

ventilation requirements, and grounding and lightning protection.

• Unpack and inspect the equipment.

• Mechanical install the equipment at the site.

• Make necessary electrical and cabling connections, including the following:

- AC input cabling

- Coaxial cables to transmit and receive antennas

• Perform a post-installation function checkout test of the equipment to verify proper installation.

• Proceed to customize the repeater parameters per customer specifications (e.g. operating

frequency, PL, codes, color code, etc.).

1.2 Environmental Conditions at Intended Installation Site

The repeater may be installed in any location suitable for electronic communications equipment,

provided that the environmental conditions do not exceed the equipment specifications for

temperature, humidity, and air quality.

NOTE: The XPR 8300 VHF and UHF Repeaters have been manufactured with a power-saving main fan, since July

2008. The fan powers ON temporarily as a self-check after the user initially turns the repeater power ON. If

the repeater’s internal ambient temperature remains below 30°C (86°F), the fan does not operate. It powers

ON and remains operational only after the repeater’s internal ambient temperature rises above 30°C (86°F),

and its speed increases as the temperatures rises. At 50°C (122°F), the fan runs at full speed.

For XPR 8380 800 MHz repeater, in an effort to provide optimum performance and power efficiency, the

repeater main fan is set to operate at a temperature of 10°C (50°F) or higher. The fan speed will be held

constant from 10°C to 30°C. Between 30°C (86°F) and 45°C (113°F), the fan will increase in speed and reach

full speed at 46°C (115°F).

1.2.1 Operating Temperature Range

-30°C (-22°F) to +60°C (+140°F)

This is the temperature measured in close proximity to the repeater. For example, if the repeater is

mounted in a cabinet, the temperature within the cabinet is measured.

December 2009 6816814H01

1-2 Pre-Installation Considerations Equipment Ventilation

1.2.2 Humidity

Humidity conditions should not exceed 95% relative humidity @ 50°C (122°F).

1.2.3 Air Quality

For equipment operating in an area which is environmentally controlled and with the repeater(s) rack

mounted, the airborne particle level must not exceed 25 µg/m³.

For equipment operating in an area which is not environmentally controlled and with the repeater(s)

cabinet mounted, airborne particle level must not exceed 90 µg/m³.

1.3 Equipment Ventilation

The repeater is equipped with a cooling fan that is used to provide forced convection cooling. When

planning the installation, observe the following ventilation guidelines:

• Customer-supplied cabinets must be equipped with ventilation slots or openings in the front (for

air entry) and back or side panels (for air to exit). If several repeaters are installed in a single

cabinet, ensure ventilation openings surrounding each repeater allow for adequate cooling.

• All cabinets must have a least 15 cm (6 inches) of open space between the air vents and any

wall or other objects.

• When multiple cabinets (each equipped with several repeaters) are installed in an enclosed

area, ensure appropriate ventilation and consider air conditioning or other climate control

equipment to satisfy the temperature requirements stated under Section 1.2.1 Operating

Temperature Range on page 1-1.

1.4 AC Input Power Requirements

The repeater is equipped with a switching power supply, and this assembly operates from 100 – 240

at 47– 63 Hz AC input power. A standard 3-prong line cord is supplied to connect the power

supply to the AC source.

It is recommended that a standard 3-wire grounded electrical outlet be used as the AC source.

The outlet must be connected to an AC source capable of supplying a maximum of 280 W. For a

nominal 110/120 V

input, the AC source must supply 5 A and should be protected by circuit

breaker rated at 15 A. For a nominal 220/240 V

input, the AC source must supply 3 A and should

be protected by a circuit breaker rated at 10 A.

1.4.1 Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to the effects of overloading on overcurrent protection devices and

supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment ratings should be used when addressing this

concern.

If the repeater is to be installed in an environment which is usually dusty, dirty,

or does not meet the air quality requirements, then the air used to cool the

repeater modules must be treated using appropriate filtering devices. Dust or

dirt accumulating on the internal circuit boards and modules is not easily

removed, and can cause such malfunctions as overheating and intermittent

electrical connections.

The equipment must be installed near an easily-accessible AC source.

Pre-Installation Considerations Equipment Mounting Methods 1-3

1.5 Equipment Mounting Methods

The MOTOTRBO Repeater may be mounted in a rack, bracket or cabinet (available as accessories).

1.6 Site Grounding and Lightning Protection

One of the most important considerations when designing a communications site is the ground and

lightning protection system. While proper grounding techniques and lightning protection are closely

related, the general category of site grounding may be divided into the following section.

1.6.1 Electrical Ground

Ground wires carrying electrical current from circuitry or equipment at the site is included in the

category of electrical ground. Examples include the AC or DC electrical power used to source

equipment located at the site, and wires or cables connected to alarms or sensors located at the site.

1.6.2 RF Ground

This type of ground is related to the bypassing of unwanted radio frequency energy to earth ground.

An example of RF grounding is the use of shielding to prevent or at least minimize the leakage of

unwanted RF energy from communications equipment and cables.

1.6.3 Lightning Ground

Providing adequate lightning protection is critical to a safe reliable communications site. RF

transmission cables, and AC and DC power lines must all be protected to prevent lightning energy

from entering the site.

Comprehensive coverage of site grounding techniques and lightning protection is not within the

scope of this instruction manual, but there are several excellent industry sources for rules and

guidelines on grounding and lightning protection at communications sites.

NOTE: Motorola recommends the following reference source:

Motorola Quality Standards Fixed Network Equipment

Installation Manual R56……………………...……………......................................6881089E50

1.6.4 Equipment Grounding

The repeater is equipped with a ground screw located on the rear of the repeater power supply

module. This screw is used to connect the repeater to the site grounding. All antenna cables, and AC

and DC power cabling, should be properly grounded and lightning protected by following the rules

and guidelines provided in the above reference. Failure to provide proper lightning protection may

result in permanent damage to the radio equipment.

Proper site grounding and lightning protection are vitally important

considerations. Failure to provide proper lightning protection may result in

permanent damage to the radio equipment.

Chapter 4 Electrical Connections

After the MOTOTRBO Repeater has been mechanically installed, electrical connections must be

made. This involves making the following connections:

• AC power cord, and

• antenna coaxial cables

Figure 4-1 shows the position of the various connectors and connections on the rear panel of the

repeater.

Figure 4-1 Locations of Connectors on the Rear Panel of the Repeater

4.1 Power Supply Connections

4.1.1 AC Input Power Connection

NOTE: The AC source must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.

Each repeater ships with a 2.438 m (8 feet) 3-conductor line cord that connects the repeater to a

110/120/220/240 V

source. Figure 4-1 shows the location where the AC line cord connects to the

repeater. Insert the 3-prong plug into a 110/120/220/240 V

grounded outlet.

If an alternate line cord is required, obtain a suitable line cord, with fittings approved by the safety

testing agency in the end-use country, from a certified electrical parts supplier.

Do NOT apply AC power to the repeater at this time. Make sure that the circuit

breaker associated with the AC outlet is turned to OFF.

4.1.2 Ground Connection

The repeater is equipped with a ground screw located on the rear of the repeater. Connect the site

ground cable to the ground screw.

4.1.3 Battery Backup Connection

The MOTOTRBO Repeater offers the capability of connecting to battery backup power in the event

of an AC power failure.

The battery backup system is connected to the repeater through the DC connector mounted at the

rear of the repeater (see Figure 4-2).

The repeater power supply will trickle charge the backup battery. If the battery is significantly

discharged, it is recommended that an external charger be used to charge the battery.

NOTE: If the battery voltage dips below 7.5 V, intermittent operation may occur. For further details,

refer to the Detailed Service Manual.

Figure 4-2 Making Connections to a Backup Battery

Refer to Motorola Quality Standards Fixed Network Equipment Installation

Manual R56 (6881089E50), for complete information regarding lightning

protection.

The repeater should only be connected to a battery supply that is in

accordance with the applicable electrical codes for the end use country; for

example, the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 in the U.S.

The repeater is to be connected to a battery charger that is in accordance with

the applicable electrical codes for the end use country; for example, the

Electrical Connections RF Antenna Connections 4-3

4.2 RF Antenna Connections

The transmit and receive antenna RF connection are made using two separate connectors. Coaxial

cables from the receive and transmit antenna must be connected to the Type-N (Tx) and BNC (Rx)

connectors. The position of these connectors is shown in Figure 4-1. For repeater use, the antennas

need adequate isolation between them, or if one antenna is used, the duplexer needs to have

adequate isolation between the Tx and Rx ports. The isolation requirements are unique to each band

and are shown in the table below:

If the duplexer isolation is not adequate, a preselector may also be used. See “Accessories” on

page 6-1 for a list of available duplexers and preselectors.

4.2.1 Duplexer Selection

The selection of a duplexer is critical to system performance. The use of a notch (band reject)

duplexer is possible in some systems that are not located at high RF density sites. See

“Accessories” on page 6-1 for a list of available duplexers. The duplexer must be able to handle at

least 50 W continuously. For the best system performance, the insertion loss should be less than 2

dB. If the repeater is used in higher RF density sites, the use of a pass-notch duplexer is

recommended.

Frequency Band Bandwidth Isolation

UHF 1 403–470 MHz 75 dB

UHF 2 450–512 MHz 85 dB

VHF 136–174 MHz 85 dB

800 806–870 MHz 80 dB

The repeater can key up at any time due to input from a subscriber unit or a

CW ID. Please ensure that all power is switched off before disconnecting the

transmit antenna.

4-4 Electrical Connections RF Antenna Connections

4.2.2 Antenna Selection

The selection of the antenna is critical to system performance. The selected antenna must be

50 Ohm impedance and capable of at least 50 Watts. Gain antennas may be used to increase

system coverage. Please take note of licensing restrictions when selecting gain antennas. Some

services or regions may have antenna gain or system ERP limitations.

The antenna must be connected to the duplexer with a high grade 50 Ohm transmission line

(hardline). The line must have connectors to match the connectors on the duplexer and antenna.

For proper antenna installation, please also consult the Motorola Quality Standards Fixed Network

Equipment Installation Manual R56 (6881089E50).

It is important that all antenna cables are grounded at the point they enter the

building.

The antenna design is the customer's responsibility. All aspects of the antenna

design must comply with the relevant local regulations.

Chapter 5 Post-Installation Checklist

After the MOTOTRBO Repeater has been mechanically installed and all electrical connections have

been made, power may now be applied and the repeater checked for proper operation.

5.1 Applying Power

Before applying power to the repeater, make sure all boards are securely seated in the appropriate

connectors on the backplane and that all RF cables are securely connected.

Turn ON the circuit breaker controlling the AC outlet that is supplying power to the repeater Power

Supply Module.

5.2 Verifying Proper Operation

Operation of the repeater can be verified by:

• observing the state of the 8 LEDs located on the front panel, and

• exercising radio operation.

5.2.1 Front Panel LEDs

After turning ON the repeater power (or after a repeater reset), the 8 LEDs on the repeater front

panel:

• Light for about one second to indicate that they are functional, then

• Go off for one second, then

• Indicate the operational status of the repeater.

5.3 Archiving

5.3.1 Copying the Repeater Codeplug Data to a Computer

Backup the repeater's codeplug data by using the Customer Programming Software (CPS) on a
