1.1 INTRODUCTION
The MultitoneTLA 852 and FLA 872 Radio Paging Receivers are VHF receivers
which receive messages sent in CCIR Radiopaging Code No.1 (RPC1).
The front panel of the unit has a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) to display messages
and other information. The three buttons on the front panel are used to control the
functions of the unit.
The LCD of the TLA 852 can show a maximum of two lines of 20 alphanumeric
characters; the FLA 872 has the option of showing a maximum of four lines of 20
characters, or two lines of double height characters. The displays can also show a
maximum of seven symbols in a line.
If the TLA 852 receives a message that is longer than 40 characters, it displays the
first 40 and stores the excess. The front panel buttons are used to transfer the
stored part of the message to the screen as required. Similarly, if the FLA 872
receives a message which has more than 80 characters (40 characters in double
height mode) the excess characters are stored.
Message alert is provided by an audible beep tone or by the unit vibrating. The
buttons are used to select the preferred alert.
Power for the unit is supplied by a single AAA battery. A door on the rear of the unit
gives access to the battery.
A back-up supply for the unit is available when the battery is changed. The back-up
supply is provided by a large-value capacitor mounted on the decoder board in the
unit. The capacitor, when fully charged, can maintain data in the unit for more than
5 minutes.
The unit case is a two-piece plastic moulding secured by two cross-head screws. A
lanyard is supplied with the unit which can be fastened to the case and the attached
clip used to secure the unit to a suitable object.

3.1 CIRCUIT SUMMARY
The TLA 852 and FLA 872 radio paging receivers each consist of two Printed Circuit
Board (PCB) assemblies contained in a plastic case.
The case is constructed in two main parts, the case front and the case back. A cover
on the back of the unit provides access to the battery compartment.
The two boards in the case are:
a) The Radio Board which has the Dual Conversion Receiver, the POCSAG
Decoder, the 1 volt regulator and the audio alert output circuit and transducer.
b) The Decoder Board which has the microprocessor, the EPROM, the SRAM, the
Liquid Crystal Display Module, the LCD illumination, the vibrate motor and the
primary and backup power supplies.
The block diagram of the functional areas of the units is shown in Figure 3.1. Refer
to Section 7 for the circuit diagrams and board layout information.
TLA 852/FLA 872
TM1205 Issue 2 Page 3 - 3
The RF signal enters the aerial and is fed to the dual conversion superheterodyne
receiver. The signal is demodulated from RF to audio frequency digital form and is
then fed to the decoder. This results in the received data activating the memory,
display and the selected audible alert or vibrate alert.
To prolong the life of the battery, the receiver operates in battery economy mode.
When the unit is in standby mode, the receiver is powered up at regular intervals
(equivalent to once per batch) to allow the POCSAG decoder to search for
pre-amble. While the unit is receiving preamble on its allocated channel, the
receiver remains powered up. This allows the POCSAG decoder to search for a
SYNC word. When the SYNC word is found, ‘batch lock’ is achieved. In batch lock
the receiver is only powered up during the allocated frame to allow the POCSAG
decoder to search for its address. If the address is found, the receiver stays ON for
the duration of the message.

3.2 DUAL CONVERSION RECEIVER
The incoming RF signal is received by the aerial AE401/AE402 which is tuned by
CV404. Capacitors C401, C405 and inductor L416 provide matching to RF amplifier
TR401, TR402. The amplifier, typically, yields a voltage gain of 20 dB. R401 and
R402 provide DC bias.
TLA 852/FLA 872
TM1205 Issue 2 Page 3 - 5
The output from the RF amplifier passes through an image filter which provides these
functions:
a) Attenuation of signals outside the required band.
b) Attenuation of the first image frequency.
c) Matches the output impedance of the RF amplifier to the input impedance of the
mixer stage.
L401 and CV407 form a parallel tuned circuit with the resonant frequency set to the
carrier frequency.
L407 forms a series resonant circuit which provides a notch filter at the image
frequency.
The local oscillator comprises transistor TR410, crystal XL402 and associated
components. Frequency adjustment is by CV405. The local oscillator frequency is
calculated as follows:
fx = carrier frequency minus 21.4MHz
where fx is the crystal frequency in MHz.
C452, C453, C494 and R439 provide decoupling of the supply rail to give good
adjacent channel performance. The local oscillator signal is coupled to the mixer
circuit by C465.
The mixer circuit, TR403 and associated components, receives the RF output of the
image filter. The RF signal is mixed with the local oscillator output to produce a
21.4MHz product. This is matched to the filter, FL401, by L406, C495 and R412.
FL401 has a bandwidth of ±7.5kHz at the 3dB points.
The output from FL401 is matched by C485, R444 and L410 to IC401 pin 24. IC401
is a combined IF mixer / local oscillator / detector.
The second oscillator runs at 20.945MHz and, with the exception of XL401 and its
tuning capacitors C407, C408, is built into the IC. As the second oscillator is not
trimmed, small frequency errors are absorbed when tuning the first local oscillator.
The input at pin 24 is applied to the internal second mixer, and is mixed with the
second oscillator output to produce a 455kHz 2nd IF signal at pin 3. The IF signal
then passes through two ceramic filters FL403 and FL402 which remove unwanted
mixer products and provide further selectivity.
The output from FL403 is split: one output connects through C444 to pin 6 of IC401
and the IF amplifier; the other optionally connects to the Received Signal Strength
Indicator (RSSI) circuit in IC401 through C454, R426 and pin 5.
TLA 852/FLA 872
TM1205 Issue 2Page 3 - 6
Due to the characteristics of filters FL401, FL402 and FL403, the signal at the input
to the IF amplifier has amplitude modulation (AM). The AM must be removed before
the signal reaches the detector stage. This is performed by the IF amplifier in IC401
which has very high gain and is designed to limit the amplitude of the signal to
remove the AM component and give a ‘square’ output. C479 and C480 provide
de-coupling for the IF amplifier.
The output from the IF amplifier passes to the detector in IC401. This circuit is a
Quadrature Demodulator which has two inputs. One input connects directly to the
IF amplifier, the other receives the signal from the IF amplifier through a phase delay
circuit connected to pins 9 and 10 of the IC. The phase delay depends on the
frequency of the IF signal and is 90 degrees at the centre frequency of the unit’s
allocated channel. The phase shift is provided by ceramic discriminator FL404,
capacitor C426 and resistor R416. C425 is a de-coupling capacitor.
The RSSI circuit in IC401 provides an optional Automatic Gain Control (AGC) signal
for the receiver. The circuit detects the received signal strength and gives a DC
current out. R426 sets the level at which the circuit starts to operate. The value of
68 kilohms sets it to approximately 16 dB above the noise floor. The DC output from
pin 22 of the IC connects to the AGC control circuit. When there is no RSSI output,
transistor TR404 is biased off and keeps the RF amplifier at full gain. At strong
signal levels the output from the RSSI causes TR404 to gradually start conducting,
thus reducing the gain of the RF amplifier. C451 determines the rise and fall times
of the AGC.
The output from the detector stage, pin 11, gives an audio output to TP401. This test
point is used in the final stages of production to align the receiver circuits. TP 401
is also used to program the decoder section of the unit. Pin 11 of IC401 also
connects through R425, R429 and R428 to pin 12. These resistors together with
capacitors C448, C483, C484 and the internal filter amplifier of IC401 form the data
filter; a unity-gain, low-pass filter which reduces high frequency noise.
The output of the data filter connects internally to the FSK Comparator. The data
output of the comparator, from pin 18, connects to the POCSAG Decoder, IC402,
pin 4. A logic signal from IC402, pin 2 to IC401, pin 16 controls the Fast/Slow charge
of the FSK Comparator. At switch-on the logic level is high and the circuit is set to
Fast Charge to allow the voltage on capacitor C492 to be set to the voltage level on
C486. The logic level at pin 16 is then set low which sets the comparator to normal
operation.

Figure 3.3: Decoder Block Diagram
3.3 DECODER
3.3.1 General
The Decoder comprises the POCSAG decoder, Microprocessor, EEPROM, SRAM
message memory and switches, plus support components and a separate LCD
module. The signal from the receiver is processed by IC402, the POCSAG decoder,
and the decoded data passed to the microprocessor. The microprocessor stores the
information in the SRAM, IC4, before activating the selected alert and sending the
message data to the LCD module for display. The EEPROM holds information
applicable to the unit.
3.3.2 POCSAG Decoder
The POCSAG decoder, IC402, is located on the Radio Board of the unit and
connects to the microprocessor, IC3, through PL40I / SK1. Pin 4 of IC402 receives
the data signal from IC401. IC402 decodes the information and sends it, four bytes
at a time, to the microprocessor, IC3. IC402 uses the SCK clock pulses from IC3,
pin 59, to transfer the data on the SDO line, IC402, pin 13.
When no signals are received by the unit, the system goes into a standby mode to
reduce power consumption. In this mode, a pulse from IC402 pin 1 (BS1), sets the
receiver circuits ON for a brief period every 0.5s - 1s, depending upon Baud rate, to
check for a preamble signal. If such a signal is received, followed by a valid address
and message, a signal is sent from IC402, pin 15 (ATTN) to alert the microprocessor.
TLA 852/FLA 872
TM1205 Issue 2Page 3 - 8
Pin 9 (CLK0) provides clock pulses to operate the microprocessor while it is in
standby mode.
Pin 11 (AREA) goes high when a valid signal is received.
Pin 14 (SDI) receives program information from the microprocessor.
Pin 2 (BS2) controls the ‘fast charge’ operation of the FSK comparator in IC401.
3.3.3 Microprocessor
The microprocessor controls the functions of the unit. A 4.19MHz clock, controlled
by XL2, provides the basic timing for the system.
Data received from IC402 is processed by the microprocessor and stored in the
SRAM chip, IC4. The microprocessor then causes the selected Alert to operate and
sends the message to the LCD module for display. Outputs from pin 5 (LCD-CS),
pin 39 (AD17), pin 38 (AD16) and pin 60 (WR) control the transfer of data to the LCD
module on the databus. Outputs from pins 2 and 7 control the operation of the audio
alert and the vibrate motor.
IC3 also controls the internal functions of the system, displaying the symbols and
changing the modes when selected by the three buttons on the front of the unit.
3.3.4 EEPROM
The EEPROM (IC1) holds information applicable to the unit, such as: Serial Number;
RIC codes; Radio parameters. The information is sent to the microprocessor through
the serial data link, pins 62, 63 and 64.
3.3.5 SRAM
The SRAM (IC4) is a 256k device which can store up to 32k of 8-bit information.
Address lines AD00 through AD14 and control lines RAM-CE and WR from the
microprocessor, control the flow of data in and out of the device on the databus.
3.3.6 LCD Module
The LCD Module produces the required characters and the symbols for the integral
display. Address lines AD16 and AD17 and control lines LCD-CS and WR from the
microprocessor, control the flow of data to the device on the databus.
TLA 852/FLA 872
TM1205 Issue 2 Page 3 - 9
C20 and C21 are part of the internal DC/DC converter of the module’s negative bias
supply.
R11, R12, R13, C17 and C22 through C25 are part of the circuit which controls the
voltage to the LCD driver.
3.3.7 Display Illumination
Two miniature lamps are used to illuminate the LCD display. The lamps are selected
ON or OFF using the buttons on the front panel. The ‘Lamp ON/OFF’ signal, which
comes from pin 8 of the microprocessor, controls transistor TR2 in the lamp circuit
of the TLA852, or TR7/IC2 for the EL display in the FLA 872.
3.3.8 Alerts
a) Audible Alert (Beep)
The transducer, SP401, and the driver circuits TR415 and TR416, are located
on the radio board. The audible alert signal from IC3, pin 2 connects to TR415
through SK1/PL401 pin14. The alert can be selected ON or OFF using the
buttons on the front panel.
b) Vibrate Alert
The vibrate motor is operated by transistors TR3 and TR4 on the decoder
board. The vibrate alert signal from IC3, pin 7 connects to pin 1 of TR3. The
alert can be selected ON or OFF using the buttons on the front panel.
3.4 POWER SUPPLIES
The primary power supply for the unit is a single 1.5 volt, AAA battery (BAT1). The
supply from the battery (B+) connects directly to the display illumination and vibrate
motor circuits, that require relatively high currents. B+ also connects to the radio
board through SK1/PL401, pin 9 and to the voltage converter, IC6, on the decoder
board.
IC6 and its associated components supply the +3.1 volts (VDD) for the unit. TR5, T1,
C9, C11, C26, R10 and D1 form an oscillator giving a frequency between 5kHz and
20kHz. The output is rectified by D1 and smoothed by C12. IC6 samples the voltage
and if it exceeds 3.1 volts, IC6 causes TR6 to switch off and stop the oscillator.
When the pager circuits take current, the voltage drops and the oscillator is turned
on again. This produces a sawtooth voltage on the 3 volt rail which gives less RF
noise than other converter circuits.
In addition to supplying the 3.1 volts, the circuit charges the backup supply (BAT2)
through resistor R6. Double diode D2 provides isolation for the two circuits.
TLA 852/FLA 872
TM1205 Issue 2Page 3 - 10
IC5 monitors the voltage of VDD and resets the decoder circuits if the voltage drops
to a level that would cause data corruption.
Transistor TR1, connected to pins 6 and 15 of IC3, detects the battery voltage. If
BAT1 is removed, the drop in B+ causes transistor TR1 to switch OFF which sets the
microprocessor to low-current mode. In this mode BAT2 supplies sufficient power
to keep the microprocessor and the SRAM operational for up to 60 minutes.
The 1 volt supply for the receiver circuits is provided by transistor TR406 and its
associated components. The circuit is a series regulator and is maintained within
specification by a control circuit in IC401.

5.7 FAULT FINDING
5.7.1 General
Refer to the Fault Finding Guide (Figures 5.5 through 5.7) and the information
given in Tables 5.1 through 5.8 and Figures 5.8 through 5.10 to help resolve
problems. Alignment information is in paragraph 5.8. Programming information is
given in paragraph 5.9.
Faults can be caused by user negligence. Always check the unit for these faults:
a) Damage to the Case or LCD
b) Water damage
c) Corrosion damage or leaking battery
Any metal parts which are corroded must be removed. Clean the affected area of
the Board assembly with a non-corrosive contact cleaner. Dry the area with a
low-pressure flow of warm air (40 EC through 50 EC). Install new parts.
5.7.2 Fault Diagnosis
Put a known good battery in the unit and switch ON the unit. Refer to the Fault-
Finding Guide (Figures 5.5 through 5.7). If it is suspected that the Decoder Board
is faulty, proceed as follows:
a) Remove the Board Assembly from the case (see paragraphs 5.5.1 and
5.5.2).
b) Separate the Decoder Board from the Radio Board (see paragraph 5.5.3).
c) Disable the Battery Economy function by fitting a 0 ohm resistor in the
position for R456 (side 2 of the radio board near IC402).
d) Use the 14-way lead (supplied with the P671B) to connect the two boards
(refer to Figure 5.4)
e) Put the boards on an anti-static mat and connect a 1.5 volt supply to the
Decoder Board. Switch ON the power supply.
f) Connect a ’10-times’ probe to the oscilloscope and measure the points given
in Table 5.4. Compare the waveforms on the oscilloscope with those shown
in Figure 5.9.
5.7.3 Power Supply Voltage Adjustment
There is no adjustment for the 1 volt, 1.5 volts or 3 volts power supplies.

5.7.4 Battery-Low Circuit Test
To check the Battery-Low circuit:
a) Connect the variable DC power supply to the unit and set the output to
0.9 volts.
b) Switch ON the unit. The unit should go through the normal ‘start-up’
procedure (beep and vibrate for one second and show the programmable
switch-on message for three seconds). After approximately two minutes the
low battery symbol will appear.
c) Switch OFF the unit but do not switch OFF or disconnect the variable DC
power supply. Set the output of the variable DC power supply to 1.2 volts.
d) Switch ON the unit. Make sure that the unit goes through the normal ‘start-
up’ procedure.

5.8.1 Preparation
a) Remove the Board Assembly from the Case (see paragraph 5.5.2).
b) Install a 0 ohm resistor or a shorting link in the position for R456, to disable
the BEC.
c) Disable the AGC circuit by connecting TP403 to 0 volts. Alternatively, lift
R409.
5.8.2 Alignment Procedure
a) Configure the test equipment as shown in Figure 5.11. Set the signal
generator to the channel frequency with an output of -10dBm.
b) Put the Board Assembly in the tray of the P671A Alignment Jig and connect
the frequency counter probe to TP405. Adjust CV405 to give a reading of
455kHz ±50Hz at the frequency counter.
c) Adjust CV406 for maximum amplitude of the 455kHz signal on the
oscilloscope. A minimum of 500 millivolts should be achieved.

5.8.3 Pager Sensitivity Measurement (Coarse)
To determine the pager sensitivity, configure the test equipment as shown in
Figure 5.13 and do the procedure given in sub-paragraphs a) through e).
NOTE: This is only an indication of sensitivity,which is dependent on the unit
under test being in a noise free environment.
a) Set the signal generator to the channel frequency, at a deviation of 4.5kHz
and an output level of -85dBm.
b) Install a known good battery in the pager and switch it ON.
c) Put the pager in the P671A and send a sensitivity call from the P645.
Increase the signal generator output level, if necessary, to obtain a correctly
received call.
d) Reduce the RF level in 1dB steps until the pager receives less than three
calls in five.
e) Increase the RF level in 1dB steps until five consecutive calls are received.
An output level of -98dBm should be acheived.
5.8.4 Pager Sensitivity Measurement (Fine)
Configure the equipment as described in paragraph 5.8.3 but connect a P800 TEM
cell instead of the P671A. Follow the steps given in the TEM Cell Instructions for
the IEC method. Place the pager in the polystyrene block (refer to Figure 5.14)
positioned centrally in the TEM Cell, with the display facing the input end. A level
of -103dBm or better should be achieved.
