TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page vii GLOSSARY OF TERMS A summary of common radio terms and some other terms used in this document, and their meanings, are given below. 3RP Trunking Signalling Specification relating to trunked networks for shared use. Used primarily for networks in France. ADC Analogue to Digital Converter. AFC Automatic Frequency Control. AGC Automatic Gain Control. Alarm A Selcall sequence sent from subscriber equipment to indicate an Emergency situation. When activated the radio will enter a repeating sequence consisting of an Alarm Live Transmit Time and an Alarm Dead Receive Time. ANN Abbreviation for Algorithmic Network Numbering. This is the numbering system where the numbers presented to the radio user can be mapped directly to the MPT1327 PFIX / IDENTs and vice versa by use of a fixed algorithm in combination with some other customisation parameters. See also FPP and MEP. ANI Automatic Number Identification. Attack Operation Auto Interrogate An Acknowledge identity sent as a response to an individual reset call. Automatic Power Feature whereby the transmit power is automatically set to a level determined by the level of the received signal. This is used to extend the battery life and/or reduce radiated emissions. Background Hunting The searching for an alternative and 'better' control channel whilst already on a valid control channel. BCAST MPT1327 broadcast message. Used to transmit information about the trunked radio system to radio units. BPF Band-Pass Filter. Busy The state of a channel such that: • for a non-signalling channel - if Busy this means that the carrier is above squelch; • for a channel with CTCSS / DCS - if Busy this means a signal is being received with either no CTCSS tone / DCS code or the correct CTCSS tone / DCS code; and, • for a channel with Selcall - if busy this means a closed channel where the signal is above squelch. A feature that equates to 'Do Not Disturb' such that the radio will reject all non-emergency calls. This feature can be activated using the busy key (if assigned) or from a menu; it is reset to disabled at switch on. C4FM Compatible 4-Level Frequency Modulation. Call Back A request, sent by the dispatcher, to a unit requesting that the unit calls the dispatcher back. CCSC Control Channel System Codeword.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page viii Channel Spacing The distance (in Hz) between the defined frequency channels. CHEKKER System Interface Specification for Trunked Networks in Germany. CLIM Call Limit Time; time limit on calls made. Normally this is defined by the Call Time Limit parameter but can by overridden by the TSC depending upon the setting of TSCLIM. CLIME Emergency Call Limit Timer. Closed A state where transmit and receive are not allowed until a Selcall message to open the channel has been received. A Closed Channel is one that defaults (when selected or after timed reset) to its closed state. Contrast with Open. Normally a Closed channel would have Selcall Mute and PTT Inhibit would be enabled. CODEC COde (Analogue to Digital Converter) / DECode (Digital to Analogue Converter). Community Repeater A communications set-up whereby different groups of radios can operate by using only one base station. This is achieved by the use of CTCSS tone signalling such that each group has a different CTCSS tone (encode and decode) and radios can only communicate with other radios in their group. Only one group of radios can use the base station at any one time. Continuous Control Channel A continuous control channel is one that is only used by one site. There are no breaks in the transmission of signalling. Emergency Call Time Limit. Control Channel A channel used for the transmission of messages that enables the TSC to control radios. Control channels may either Continuous or Timed Shared. Control Channel Burst A feature that enables control channel burst transmissions on systems using time-shared control channels. It is unavailable if the control channel acquisition type is not 'Time Shared'. To make available: go to Control Channel Acquisition Type and set to Time-shared. CRU Central Repair Unit. CTCSS CTCSS stands for Continuous Tone Controlled Squelch System. A continuous tone (lower than the audio range of the receiver) is modulated onto the carrier as well as other signalling or voice traffic. Only receivers that have been programmed to recognise the same CTCSS tone are able to receive the transmissions, since the squelch of receivers looking for different CTCSS tones prevents the audio from being heard. This provides a simple method of sending messages to selected receivers and allows several different networks to use the same frequency. CTCSS is also known as Tone Lock or Tone Squelch. DAC Digital to Analogue Converter. Dash (-) digits Digits known as 'No Tone' digits used in Selcall Identities. DCS Digital Coded Squelch system is based on sending a continuous stream of binary code words using low deviation, direct frequency shift keying. Only receivers which have been programmed to recognise the same DCS sequence are able to open their squelch and receive the associated speech transmissions. This provides a simple method of sending messages to selected receivers only and allows several different networks to use the same frequency. DCS is also known as CDCSS. Decode Reception of signalling, either Selcall, where encoded tone frequencies are decoded and identified as specific tones digits, or CTCSS/DCS, where tones are analysed to see if the channel should be opened. Demanded Demanded Registration; a procedure in which the TSC forces a single radio unit to attempt registration immediately (providing the radio is not already attempting to register).
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page ix Disabled The 'False' state of a parameter. That indicates this parameter is not active. Typically this state is represented by an unmarked check box. Compare with Enabled. DSP Digital Signal Processor. DTMF Abbreviation of Dual Tone Multi-Frequency signalling. Used to dial into Telephone networks using tone dialling. Dual Watch A facility that enables the Radio to periodically monitor another channel for a signal above squelch. Typically applications are checking an emergency channel whilst on another channel. Economiser A process by which the Receiver is powered down whilst there is no received signal. Periodically the receiver is powered up to check for such a signal. This is used to extend the battery life of a portable. EDM Extended Data Message (MPT1327). Enabled The 'True' state of a parameter that indicates this parameter is active. Typically this state is represented by a mark (either a tick or a cross) in a check box. Encode Transmission of signalling, either Selcall where Selcall tone digits are encoded into tone frequencies, or CTCSS/DCS where sub-audible signals modulated onto the carrier. ETSI European Technical Standard Institute. Fallback A mode of operation that may be entered when the Network is suffering a malfunction. During this mode certain facilities (e.g. PSTN) may not be available. FFSK Fast Frequency Shift Keying. This is a signalling system for the transfer of digital information. It works by using one of two audio tones to represent data, 1 or 0 being transmitted. Fleet A group of units formed such that only a shortened form of dialling (2 or 3 digits) is required between them. These groups are normally assigned contiguous IDENTs. FOACSU Full Off Air Call Set Up. A method of call set-up where the calling party has to manually answer the incoming call before the trunking system will allocate a traffic channel to the call. This reduces the loading on traffic channels as it prevents them being allocated to calls when the called party is not present to deal with the call. PLA Programmable Logic Array. FPP Field Personality Programmer. Hash (#) digits These digits are used for two purposes: • for Selcall identities (encode and decode) - known as User Id digits. These digits are replaced by the user id entered at switch on (if enabled); and, • use in DTMF dialled strings - their use is network dependent to access special services. IDENT A 13 bit number used for Identification purposes. Associated with a Prefix (PFIX) this forms a 20-bit address which is used for identification purposes in signalling between the radio and the trunking system. Identity Name given to a sequence of tones that is used in sequential tone signalling. See Valid Selcall Digits. Idle State The state of the radio when it is not in a call. Inaccessible A state of a channel such that it is unavailable to the user through normal methods of channel selection. Therefore inaccessible channels will not appear on the channel menu. Include Calls These types of calls are used to allow a 3rd party to join into an existing call.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page x IS Intrinsically Safe. LCD Liquid Crystal Display. Link Establish Time A delay incorporated into the start of every selective call or DTMF transmission that allows for the finite delay of the radio equipment in responding to any radio signal. This includes both the commencement time of the originating transmitter and the response time of the receiver. Locked A state of a channel whereby it is not possible to change channels using the normal up/down keys on the channel menu until the OK key is pressed. See Auto Channel Selection Lock. MAP27 Mobile Access Protocol for MPT1327 equipment. MEP Miniaturisation Extent Parameter. Used in systems that use ANN numbering. MMI Man-Machine Interface. Modifier Part of a dialled string that modifies the nature of the call made to a number (e.g. dialling "*9" before the number that is to be dialled will modify the call to be an emergency call). MPT1327 A signalling standard for Trunked Private Land Mobile Radio Systems. Defined for systems in the UK but also used outside the UK. Issued January 1988. MPT1343 A System Interface Specification for commercial Trunking networks. Defined for systems in the UK but also used outside the UK. Issued January 1988. Multiax CTCSS based multi channel sharing system. Noise Blanker A circuit designed to reduce automotive ignition interference. NDD Network Dependent Data. This is a field within the CCSC codeword that is used by the trunking system to identify information about the trunking network and, in particular, information specific to the site that is radiating the control channel. It is used by the radio when it is acquiring a control channel to identify valid channels. Nuisance Delete Null Id A Selcall identity that is not defined and whose tones' field is displayed as a blank. Open A state where transmit and receive are allowed. The channel is no longer open when reset. Normally an Open channel would not have Selcall Mute and PTT Inhibit would be disabled. OPID Network Operator Identity used in Regional Systems. See Roaming. PABX Private Automatic Branch Exchange. Password An optional password system available on the radio. This feature is only available if the radio does has a display and a keypad. To make available: go to Hardware Components, Terminal Settings and set Product Type to one which has a display and a keypad. PFIX The 7 most significant bits of an MPT1327 address number. Normally same fleet units have same prefix. Relates to individual and group address numbers. PiN Diode P-type intrinsic N-type diode. Type of diode used for RF switching. PLL Phase-Locked Loop. PMR Private Mobile Radio (not normally trunked). Priority Channel A channel in a search group that is scanned between every other channel.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page xi PSTN Public Switched Telephone Network. PTT Press To Talk. This is the term given to the operator’s key normally used to commence transmitting a message. PTT Inhibit A state whereby transmission using the PTT is not allowed. Also know as Tx Lockout. PWM Pulse Width Modulation. Queuing The storing of a Selcall Identity for later transmission. If inhibited from transmitting a Selcall sequence because the channel is busy then the radio can queue the Send 1 / Send 2 sequence for later transmission. When a radio unit is in Queuing mode all incoming calls are stored automatically in a queue for later examination. The caller is given an indication that the call has been queued by the called party. The queue will contain the identity of the caller and the status value received (if a status call). Up to 20 calls may be queued. The Queuing mode may be selected using the Modes Menu. Note: Connecting a MAP27 device to a radio that is in queuing mode will disable queuing. All incoming calls will then be routed both to the radio user interface and to the MAP27 device connected to the radio. Also known as Logging Mode. Reference Frequency Normally this is generated from a high stability crystal oscillator reference and is divided digitally in a frequency synthesiser for comparison with other frequency sources, e.g. a VCO. Registration Registration is a technique used to ensure that the trunking system knows the location of radio units that are using the system. This allows the system to set-up calls quickly without having to search the whole system for the called radio. Repeat Tone A Selcall tone that is used to replace repeated tones. Fixed at tone E. Example: an identity entered as '12333' would be sent by the radio as '123E3'. Reset Resetting is caused by Three Tone Reset, a Remote Reset, and an Individual reset or a Group reset (Call Types in Decode Identity). When a radio is reset the effect on the radio will be as follows: • any Call Alerts will be stopped; • the Call LED flashing will stop; • if the channel is in Open mode then the channel is closed; • the PTT is optionally inhibited (see PTT Inhibit After Reset Sequence); • in searching - if paused on a Selcall channel then searching resumes; and, • if the Acknowledge property of a Decode Identity is set to 'Auto Interrogate' or 'Transpond & Auto Interrogate' then the Auto Interrogate encode identity is transmitted. Roaming This is a process that allows changing between regional trunking systems which have different Operator Identities (OPIDs). Not allowed on MPT1343 Systems. RSSI Received Signal Strength Indicator. Scanning Process of switching between the channels in the nominated search group in cyclic sequence, stopping when the search condition (which may be to look for either a free or a busy channel) is satisfied. SDM Short Data Message. Selcall Selective Calling - a system of signalling which allows 'dialling up' of specific mobiles, portables and controllers. Such a system may be used to pass messages as a data message to a specific user or group of users. It can be used to provide remote switching facilities and to provide access control into community repeaters or similar devices.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page xii Selcall Mute A state of the audio gate whereby the loudspeaker is muted (closed) until a valid Selcall is received. Selcall System Selective Calling, uses a tone sequence at the start, and end, of a call to control which members of a fleet react to the transmission. SFM Short Form Memory. Sidetone Sidetone is the audio which can be (optionally) heard when Selcall, DTMF and tone burst transmissions are made. Simplex Mode of operation whereby the radio operates as a conventional fixed channel radio outside the Trunking network. SINAD Ratio of SIgnal plus Noise And Distortion to noise and distortion expressed in dB. Squelch System used to prevent weak, unintelligible signals and random noise from being heard by a radio operator while still allowing intelligible signals to be received normally. This is accomplished by the use of a threshold below which any received signals are ignored. Only signals whose signal-to-noise ratio is above the squelch level cause the audio circuits of the radio to be enabled, with the result that only satisfactory signals are received. The squelch level is specified in SINAD. Star (*) digits Digits known as Status or Message digits. These digits are used for three purposes: • Status Digits for Selcall Identities; • Wildcard digits in Status strings; and, • use in DTMF dialled strings - their use is network dependent to access special services. Status A feature whereby a radio's status (or usually the status of the radio's user) can be transmitted and a status message from other radios can be displayed. This operates through status digits in Selcall identities, either in Encode Identities or Decode Identities as follows: Encode Identities: status digits within the identity are used to transmit the current situation of the radio's user (e.g. "Out To Lunch"); and, Decode Identities: status digits are looked up in a table (Status Menu) for possible messages to display. SW Software. SYS System Identity Code part of the CCSC. TCXO Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator. Temporary Temporary Registration; a process carried out by the Dispatcher due to some system failure that prevents it from carrying out normal registration. The radios will recognise this temporary registration mode but will otherwise use the network in the same way as if they were registered. They may be required to re-register when normal registration mode is resumed. Three Tone Reset This is a system whereby a call to a user automatically reset all other users in a group. Example: a call to user '12345' would call 12345 and reset all other users on this channel with an identity 123nn where n can be any digit 0-9, A-F. Timed Reset Facility that causes the Radio, after a certain period of time, to restore current channel to its initial condition e.g. if it was previously searching it will resume searching. Time Shared A time-shared control channel is one that is used by more than one site. This allows a wide coverage area to be obtained using only one frequency.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page xiii The forward channel from the TSC to the radio is divided into timeslots. Each site using the channel is allocated one timeslot in which to transmit and send signalling. Therefore, when on a timeshared channel, the radio may be able to receive bursts of signalling from different sites at different signal strengths and may receive periods when no signalling is received. Depending on the type of system, the radio may be able to perform transactions with any site it can receive from or only with a specific site. TMR Trunked Mobile Radio. Tone Burst An audio tone is transmitted at the start of transmission to inform a relay (repeater) station to switch itself on to relay the transmission. Transpond An Acknowledge identity sent as a response to an individual call. TRAXYS Air Interface for the PTT Telecom Trunked Radio Network, used in the Netherlands. TSC Trunking Site Controller. Central control required for the Trunking System to function. Controls base stations. Tx Inhibit A facility which prevents the user from transmitting (other than alarms), while the channel is Busy. UMP User Memory Plug. A special device that contains the customisation data for the radio. If this is removed then this can cause the radio to behave in a number of ways. User Defined Groups These groups are set up by the user (contrast with Dynamic User Groups) when the user desires to be included, temporarily, in an existing group. Up to 8 groups may be defined (in addition to the Network group Idents defined by Network Group Numbers). This feature is only available if User Defined Groups parameter is enabled. These temporary groups are lost at switch off unless 'Save Groups at Switch Off' is enabled. User Identity This is a sequence of up to four digits entered by the user when the Radio is switched on, if this option is programmed. These digits are then substituted into any transmitted Selcall identity which includes # digits. VCO Voltage-Controlled Oscillator. Vote Method used to compare the signal strength on a current channel with another specified channel and then to choose the channel having the stronger signal. Voting Feature used during searching when there is more than one channel that satisfies the required conditions. It involves examining all the channels that satisfy the required conditions, and then selecting the channel with the highest signal strength. VOX Voice Operated Transmit.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 1.1 1 - INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 GENERAL The SRP9170/80 series of FM portable radio transceivers are designed for conventional PMR and Trunked operation in VHF and UHF radio systems. The transceiver is available in four functional variants. The variants are as follows: Description PMR/Trunked Portable Transceiver with no Keypad and Graphic Display. SRP9170 Portable Transceiver with no Keypad and Graphic Display, Intrinsically Safe. SRP9170is Portable Transceiver with Keypad and Graphic Display. SRP9180 Portable Transceiver with Keypad and Graphic Display, Intrinsically Safe. SRP9180is 1.2 SCOPE This manual provides technical specifications, description and servicing details for the SRP9170/80 series of portable radio transceivers together with the related accessories. Unless specifically stated otherwise, the text and illustrations refer to all versions in the series. 1.3 DESCRIPTION The design concept utilises wide band analogue techniques for RF transmit and receive circuitry with digital signal processing of analogue or digital modulation and demodulation. Electronic tuning is used throughout the portable to eliminate manual tuning and level adjustment. A Digital Signal Processor (DSP) and a Programmable Logic Array (PLA) are used with other dedicated devices in the SRP9170/80 to perform the following functions under software control: • frequency synthesis of all operating frequencies; • modulation and demodulation of 10 / 12.5 / 20 / 25 kHz FM signals on a per channel basis; • modem functionality for specified data modulation schemes; • filtering, pre-emphasis, de-emphasis, limiting, compression, muting, CTCSS, Selcall or any other frequency or level dependent signal modification; • serial communications with the Control Ancillaries, Field Programmer and Alignment Tool; and, • tuning control data for Tx and Rx. The SRP9170/80 Transceiver comprises a rugged cast internal lightweight alloy chassis that houses two printed circuit board assemblies and provides all heatsink requirements. The battery clips into the chassis where it is securely locked via a tensioned clip. Release is achieved by sliding the latch towards the bottom of the transceiver. The chassis is enclosed in a high impact polycarbonate ABS plastic case that retains the speaker, keypad and display. Gaskets fitted around keys, the display, buttons, connectors, switches, and the antenna socket provide a seal against moisture and dust ingress. The main PCB assembly comprises a multi-layer board containing all the RF and control circuitry. The display or man-machine interface (MMI) board is connected via a miniature connector to the main board. Flexible PCBs connect the speaker and microphone, accessories connector, volume control and channel / zone switch to the main PCB. Provision is made in the radio for optional plug-in accessories (i.e. for encryption, P25, etc). The standard battery capacity is 2200 mAh and utilises lithium-ion technology to suit the endurance requirement of the portable application. The antenna is connected to the radio via an SMA plug that is mounted in the radio chassis. The antenna flange provides it with additional rigidity when seated on the radio body.

TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 1.5 1 - INTRODUCTION 1.5 SOFTWARE VERSIONS AND NAMING CONVENTION There are various associated items of software (SW) required for the SRP9170/80 radio and programmer to operate. This section simply defines the naming rules of the SW files to allow identification and conformity. This allows different versions of SW to be distributed and co-exist without confusion. The SRP9170/80 Transceiver has three items of SW for digital and analogue PMR, Trunking and Alignment. 1.5.1 Filename Structure • 2 character Application code. • 2 or 3 character SW Type code. • 3 character version number. • File Extension as required. eg b1tm182.bin (trunking). b1p_182.bin (PMR). b1s_182.bin (startup). 1.5.2 Application Code This identifies the application the SW was initially designed for: b1 Standard SRP9170/80 Software. 1.5.3 Software Type Code This identifies different types of SW within an application: s_ Start-up code (for alignment and start-up); p_ Conventional PMR code; p_s Scrambler; tm Trunk MPT; ta Trunk ANN; bo Transceiver Boot-code; bc Transceiver Boot-Backup-code; bf Transceiver PLA-code; and, ba Transceiver PLA-Backup-code. Note the above file names are not stored within the code. As a consequence, when the radio is read by the FPP, the FPP will display version numbers and release dates for the Backup, Startup, PMR, and TMR codes. The Bootloader, PLA Backup and PLA codes show release dates only.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 1.6 1 - INTRODUCTION 1.5.4 Version Number This is a 3-digit number allocated by Engineering to identify the SW version: eg 182 = Version 1.82. 1.5.5 Exclusions The Programmer SW does not follow the above rules, as it is a PC based Program and its version number can be easily identified by starting the SW. Later releases of SW will be backward compatible, unless deliberately not so, in which case a different directory structure/path may be implemented. 1.5.6 Displaying Software Versions Each Transceiver SW code file (eg b1tm182.bin, etc) contains version information about itself and possibly compatible Programming SW. For Radio SW saved on Disk, this information can be displayed via the Programmer function: Options: Upgrade_Software: Get_File For Software loaded in the radio, information can be read from the Transceiver and displayed via the Programmer function:
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 1.7 1 - INTRODUCTION Options: Radio_Information The portable software version can be read from the portable display if required by accessing the Set-up menu and then choosing Radio Info and selecting the software version on the radio. 1.5.7 Automatic Version Upgrade Prompting When a configuration is downloaded to the Transceiver, the Programmer performs a check on the SW currently installed in the radio. If a later version of SW exists (on PC hard disk) then the Programmer will prompt the user with the following message: Note: as early versions of FPP cannot recognise a more recent revision of the radio, it is important that the latest FPP version is downloaded from: http://www.tmcradio.com. If YES is selected, the Transceiver Radio code is updated before the new configuration is downloaded. If NO is selected, only the configuration is downloaded. It is strongly recommended to select “Yes” when this message is shown. This process also updates the Start-up code to ensure it is compatible with the loaded PMR or Trunk code. Note: if the …\StandardFPP\RadioSW folder contains no files, then the above check will not be performed.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 1.8 1 - INTRODUCTION 1.5.7.1 Transceiver SW Description, Start-up and Backup-Software The SRP9170/80 Transceiver software is split into the following separate modules: • Bootloader and Backup Software; • Start-Up Software; • PLA and PLA-Backup Software; • Mainline PMR Software; • Mainline Analogue Trunk Software; and, • P25 Software. When the Transceiver starts, it basically performs the following steps: • Initial execution starts with the Bootloader code, which attempts to load the Start-Up Software (if Start-Up checksum is bad, then the Backup Software is loaded); • Start-Up Software then downloads the PLA code (or PLA-Backup code if PLA checksum is bad) to the PLA device. If both PLA and PLA-Backup checksums are bad then the radio is not operational and serial communication is not possible; • Start-Up Software then reads the On/Off switch line and compares this with saved parameters to determine if the radio should continue to power-up or switch itself off again; and, • Start-Up Software then attempts to load either Mainline PMR or Analogue Trunk Software (dependent on saved parameter) and switches execution to complete the power-up process and start normal operation. If the Mainline Software cannot be loaded, or a Job file configuration has not been loaded (eg non-existent or checksum fail) then execution switches to Backup Software until the error is corrected (eg by FPPing the radio). There are three states that the radio can end up in after switch-on: • Mainline Analogue Trunk Software or Mainline PMR Software (normal power-up). If the radio does not have a valid Job file configuration loaded, then it will display a “No PMR Cfg” or “No TMR Cfg” message; • Start-Up Software (characterised by “Alignment Mode” shown on the display). This is also the code that is running when the radio is being aligned using the Alignment Tool; and, • Backup Software (via various paths from above). 1.5.8 Wailing Siren (Boot-up Software Corrupted) A “WAILING SIREN” sound is emitted from the Loudspeaker while the radio is running in Boot Backup Software. In this mode the FPP can be used to re-load a Job file, or re-load Start-Up or Mainline Operating Software. Simply writing a Job file to the radio should allow the FPP to determine and update the offending software – however there may be instances where the FPP cannot determine this and the Start-Up and Mainline Software should be updated manually. This can be done using the FPP: Upgrade_Software: Get_File … then Download. Both Start-Up Software (filename = b1s_xxx.bin) and Mainline PMR (b1p_xxx.bin) or Trunk (b1txxxx.bin) should be loaded if the FPP cannot automatically fix the problem. The wailing siren should stop once the problem is fixed. Note 1: holding down the alarm key (F7) and PTT key when power is applied to the radio will also force the radio to start-up in Backup Software. This may be useful in some situations. Note 2: should these steps fail to restore the radio and stop the Wailing Siren, the radio will need to be returned to a Level 3 Service Centre for FLASH replacement.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 1.9 1 - INTRODUCTION 1.6 ADJUSTMENT AND ALIGNMENT There are no internal adjustments in the SRP9170/80. Re-programming and alignment are performed using software tools. For testing, a special test jig is required so to provide power and control lines. As the radio has no internal adjustments, there is no need to have the radio PCBs powered while out of the chassis. Field repair of the PCBs is not recommended as specialised equipment is required to fault find and repair the boards. 1.7 SPECIFICATION 1.7.1 General Operation: Single or two-frequency simplex (half-duplex).

(1) Use a small, flat-blade screwdriver to carefully release the cast metal frame assembly from the bottom of the front casing. This action releases the radio PCB from the MMI PCB. (2) Gently ease the frame assembly out of the front casing taking care not to damage the three flex circuits. Lift the bottom of the frame so that it just clears the plastic casing, then gently slide the frame away from the top of the casing until it is released from the casing. (3) Slide out the locking tab of connector S4 (on the radio PCB) to release the Accessory Flex circuit. Use a very small flat-blade screwdriver. (4) Slide out the locking tab of connector S6 (on the radio PCB) to release the Speaker Flex circuit. Use a very small flat-blade screwdriver. Figure 3-4 Removal of Frame Assembly
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 3.4 3 - DISASSEMBLY Remove the Metal Screen from the Radio PCB and Frame Assembly Refer Figure 3-5. (1) Use a small, flat-blade screwdriver to release the nine spring tabs on the metal screen. Note: releasing three spring tabs on one side and the one at the top of the metal screen should be sufficient to remove the metal screen. (2) Lift the metal screen away from the radio PCB and frame assembly. Figure 3-5 Removal of Metal Screen Remove the MMI Assembly Refer Figure 3-6. The MMI PCB is held in place by four plastic lugs on the front casing. (1) Using a small flat-blade screwdriver, exert slight sideways and upwards pressure on the edge of the PCB (close to one of the top retaining lugs) whilst exerting slight outward deflection of the casing side walls. This will release the PCB from the retaining lugs. (2) Lift the MMI PCB and LCD display assembly away from the front casing.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 1 - INTRODUCTION Page 3.5 3 - DISASSEMBLY Figure 3-6 Removal of MMI Assembly RE-ASSEMBLY Re-assembly is the reverse of disassembly. However: (1) examine the various seals before re-assembly and replace with new items if necessary; (2) slight outward deflection of the case walls will ease re-assembly of the MMI PCB behind the retaining lugs; (3) care must be taken when reconnecting the flex circuits to ensure that they are correctly aligned before pressing home the locking tabs on the connectors; and, (4) ensure that the metal screen is fitted to the PCB / frame assembly before the assembly is fitted to the casing. For radios requiring IP integrity before release back into the field, the radio must pass a calibrated Air Leak test, subjecting the radio to a pressure equivalent to 1 m H20 for 60 seconds. This test can only be performed at the CRU, and is an essential requirement for the IS rating of a radio.

With the portable in receive mode, diodes D580, D540, and D541 in the antenna switch are reverse biased allowing the receiver input signal to be coupled through to the receiver front-end with minimal loss. The overall insertion loss of the harmonic filter and switch is approximately 0.8 dB. A noise blanker is also fitted to E0-band radios, enabled by an assigned function key. The noise blanker samples the received signal and gates the 45 MHz signal in the IF stage in the event that high-level noise transients are received. Due to inherent time delays in the band-pass filters prior to the blanking gate, gating synchronisation occurs before the transients can adversely affect the following stages. Varactor-tuned band-pass filters at the input and output of the RF amplifier provide receiver front-end selectivity. Varactor tuning voltages are derived from the alignment data stored in the radio. The DSP processes this data to optimise front end tuning relative to the programmed channel frequencies, which may be changed at any time without re-aligning the radio. To achieve the required varactor tuning range an arrangement of positive and negative bias power supplies is used to provide a total reverse bias across the varactors of up to 14.0 V DC. A fixed 2.5 V positive bias, derived from the 5V0 supply using voltage divider R429 / R430, is applied to the cathodes of the varactor diodes. The control voltages, TUNE1 to 4, for the four variable negative bias supply voltages, originate at the PLA as PWM signals. The
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 4.2 4 - TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION control voltages vary from 0 to 3.3 V after integration of each PWM signal. The value of each of the four control voltages is dependent on channel frequency and tuning. Each control voltage is applied to level shifting transistors, Q404 to Q411, where they are converted to negative voltages in the range - 0.5 V to - 11.5 V. The - 12.0 V rail of the level translators is generated by U904D/E with D903 to D906 providing the required voltage multiplication. The RF amplifier stage comprises a low noise transistor amplifier Q400 that is compensated to maintain good linearity and matching for low noise. This provides excellent intermodulation and blocking performance across the full operating range. The overall gain of the front-end is typically 14 dB for all bands. 4.1.2 First Mixer and IF Section The output of the last front-end band-pass filter is coupled into single balanced mixer T400 / D415 which converts the RF signal to an IF frequency of 45 MHz. The local oscillator injection level is typically + 8 dBm at T400 pin 1 with low side injection used for UHF bands and high side for VHF bands. Following the mixer is IF amplifier Q401 that provides approximately 15 dB of gain and in association with its output circuitry, presents the required load conditions to the 4-pole 45 MHz crystal filters Z401A / Z401B. The crystal filters provide part of the required selectivity for adjacent channel operation with the remaining selectivity provided by a DSP band-pass filter algorithm. 4.1.3 IQ Demodulator Additional IF gain of approximately 45 dB occurs at U400 which is a dedicated IF AGC amplifier / IQ Demodulator configured for single-ended input and differential-output operation. The AGC voltage for U400 is derived from the RSSI function of the DSP. The onset of AGC operation occurs when RF input signal level at the antenna connector exceeds – 90 dBm and can reduce the gain by approximately 100 dB for strong signals. Conversion of the 45 MHz IF signal to I and Q baseband signals is carried out by the demodulator section of U400. The 90 MHz local oscillator signal is generated by VCO Q402 which is phase locked by the auxiliary PLL output of U701 via feedback signal AUX_LO2. The 90 MHz LO2 signal is divided down to 45 MHz internally in U400. 4.1.4 Receiver Audio Processing The baseband audio from the IQ Demodulator (U400) is applied to a differential amplifier that cancels out DC offsets and converts the balanced demodulator IQ output signals to unbalanced inputs for the CODEC, U820. All receiver audio processing and filtering functions are performed by the CODEC under the control of the DSP. The receiver I and Q analogue baseband signals are converted to digital signals by the CODEC ADC before being applied to a series of digital filters which provide the final stage of adjacent channel filtering, high-pass and low-pass filtering, mute noise processing and volume control for narrow and wideband operation. The fully processed signal is then converted to an analogue audio signal by the CODEC DAC and then applied to a conventional dual audio amplifier, U850. U850 provides an audio output level of up to 500 mW into the internal 16 ohm speaker, or external 16 ohm load. The carrier and signalling mute functions are performed by Q860/861 under DSP control. De-emphasis of the audio signal is performed within the DSP. Discriminator audio is derived from the other CODEC output channel, OUTR. Discriminator audio is a preset level set by the FPP and is independent of squelch operation. Switch U302B can select either flat or de-emphasised audio from the CODEC. The selected audio is applied to the other half of the audio amplifier, U850, which drives the Accessories Connector audio after which it is routed to the portable’s Side Accessories connector.

Figure 4-2 VHF/UHF Transmitter 4.2.1 Drivers and PA Stages The RF output level from D611 in the VCO Tx / Rx switch is typically + 8 dBm. Tx buffer Q550/560 increases this level by approximately 6 dB (136 to 530 MHz), 9 dB (66 to 88 MHz) and also provides a high degree of VCO isolation from the Tx output. The Tx PA module, U500 requires a drive power of approximately 17 dBm (335 to 520 MHz), 13 dBm (136 to 245 MHz) and 15 dBm (66 to 88 MHz). The module contains power control circuitry and MOSFET stages to provide a maximum output power of + 37 dBm (5 W). Caution: During servicing, if drive power is lost while the power control voltage is high, the current into the PA may exceed its specified maximum rating. Therefore, the bench power supply current must be set to as low a value as necessary. The radio has additional in-built safeguards, but these should not be relied on. Power output settings are derived from alignment data stored in flash memory during the initial factory alignment. The DSP processes this data to optimise the output power level relative to the programmed channel frequencies.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 4.4 4 - TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION Comparator U520B monitors the Tx PA current through L571.The output of U520B is temperature compensated by R535/536/537, and then passed to analogue switch U800B. Comparator U301C is used to compare the output of U800B with a 13 ms ramp signal. The output of U301C is passed to the PLA and then processed by the DSP. 4.2.2 Power Control Transmitter output power is stabilised by a feedback control loop. A printed-circuit directional coupler, L590, R580, D510, and associated components form a power detector. Comparator U520A and associated components provide the power setting and control functions. Forward power is sampled by the power detector and applied as a DC voltage to the inverting input of the comparator. The TX_PWR set voltage is a DC voltage proportional to the programmed transmitter power setting and is applied to the non-inverting input of the comparator. The TX_PWR voltage originates from the PLA as a PWM signal and is integrated before applying to the comparator. Changes in the Tx PA module output level due to supply voltage, load, or temperature variations are detected and applied to the comparator, U520A. The comparator output proportionally adjusts the Tx PA module gate voltage, and therefore the Tx PA output level. High temperature protection is provided by thermistor R532 that progressively reduces the power level if the Tx PA module temperature becomes excessive. 4.2.3 Antenna Switch and Harmonic Filter The antenna switch, consisting of PiN diodes D580/540/541, is switched by Q541/542 and associated circuitry allowing the transmitter output to be coupled to the antenna while providing isolation for the receiver input. With the transmitter switched on, the diodes are forward biased, allowing power to be coupled through to the antenna and isolating the receiver by grounding its input at C588. The short circuit at the receiver input is transformed to an effective open circuit at D580 by L583, which minimises transmitter loading. With the transmitter switched off the diodes are reverse biased allowing the receiver input signal to reach the receiver front end with minimal loss. The harmonic rejection low pass filter comprises L582/584/585 and associated capacitors. A mechanical changeover switch, S500, is provided to allow connection of an external antenna. 4.2.4 Transmitter Audio Processing The internal electret microphone provides 10 mV RMS (nominal), to give approximately 60% of maximum system deviation. Analogue switch, U800C, switches between the internal microphone audio signal and external audio options and data input. U800A provides CODEC (U820) input switching which selects either the receiver I signal or transmitter audio/data signals depending on the Tx / Rx mode. All pre-emphasis, filtering, compression, and limiting processes for narrow and wideband operation are carried out in the DSP after A to D conversion by the CODEC. The processed transmitter audio/data from the CODEC output at VOUTR is applied to the VCO as a modulation signal with a level of approximately 200 mV p-p.

The main synthesiser controls the frequency of the Tx / Rx VCOs via the control voltage output at pin 1 and VCO feedback to pin 4. The auxiliary synthesiser is used to control the receiver 90 MHz second local oscillator via the control voltage output at pin 16 and VCO feedback to pin 13. The main synthesiser is a fractional-N device, and the auxiliary synthesiser is an integer-N device. 4.3.2.1 Main Synthesiser The main fractional-N synthesiser divides the output of the Tx or Rx VCO down to the value of the comparison frequency. The comparison frequency is either 480 kHz (UHF) or 240 kHz (VHF). Programmable frequency divider, U710, divides the 14.4 MHz reference oscillator, U700, down to 480 kHz (UHF) or 240 kHz (VHF). The divided-down frequency is then compared by the main synthesiser phase comparator. If the two signals differ in phase or
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 4.6 4 - TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION frequency, an error signal is generated by the phase comparator. This error signal forces the VCO to change frequency in a direction to minimise the error signal. A valid lock detect output is derived from pin 12 and is sampled by the PLA. During transmit, if an unlocked signal is detected the radio will switch back to receive mode. An unlocked signal in receive mode will cause the radio to beep. 4.3.2.2 Auxilliary Synthesiser The auxiliary integer-N synthesiser is used to generate the second LO frequency, 90 MHz. The comparison frequency for this synthesiser is 40 kHz. 4.3.3 VCOs The transmitter and receiver VCOs use low noise JFET transistors Q600 (Rx), Q602 (Tx) and associated parts to generate the signals for the required band coverage. Electronic tuning is provided by varactor diodes D600 to D608 with their control voltages derived from the loop filter (C636, C640, C671, C675, C681, C682, C686, C691, R683, R684, R685), and Negative Bias Generator. VCO selection and timing is controlled by the DSP / PLA via the Rx and Tx power supplies and applied through switches Q601 (Rx) and Q603 (Tx). VCO buffer Q604 / Q605 isolates the VCO from load variations in following circuits and active power supply filter Q615 minimises supply related noise. A PLL feedback signal is sampled from the VCO buffer output via buffer Q607. The 90 MHz receiver VCO comprises Q402 and associated parts. Automatic tuning is achieved by applying a Control Voltage to D408 / D409 via Loop Filter R433, R445, R464, C467, C493 and C467a. 4.3.4 Negative Bias Generator and Loop Filter A positive and negative varactor bias supply, similar to the front-end varactor arrangement, is used to achieve the required broadband tuning range of the VCOs. PLL device U701 is programmed to deliver a nominal + 1.6 V output from phase detector/charge pump CPP regardless of the channel frequency selected. This voltage is filtered by the loop filter to remove synthesiser noise and reference frequency products. The resulting low noise voltage is applied to the cathode side of the VCO varactor tuning diodes as a positive bias voltage. The negative bias supply originates as an integrated PWM voltage (0.1 V to 3.3 V) at the VCAP_ADJ output of the PLA, with a level relative to the programmed state of the radio (e.g. channel frequency and Tx or Rx mode). The voltage is translated to a negative voltage between 0 V and – 16 V by the circuit comprising Q700 to Q703. The – 16 V rail of this supply is generated by U904E/D with D903 to D906 providing the voltage multiplying effect needed to achieve – 16 V. The output of the negative supply is applied directly to the VCO varactor anodes as the negative tuning voltage VCAP_BIAS. 4.3.5 Phase Modulator The modulation path for audio, data and higher frequency CTCSS signals is via varactor D609 and its associated components in the Tx VCO. The reference input to the synthesiser (U701 - REFIN) provides the low frequency modulation path via the Phase Modulator. The phase modulator comprises the following sections: • integrator U760B is a low pass filter providing 6 dB per octave attenuation to frequencies above approximately 1 Hz; • divider U710 divides the 14.4 MHz reference frequency down to 240 kHz (VHF) or 480 kHz (UHF); • ramp generator Q711 / Q712 provides a saw tooth output, the slope of which is adjustable via the MOD_BAL line. This adjustment is set via a DAC output controlled from the Alignment Tool. Adjustment of the ramp slope effectively changes the Phase Modulator gain by modification of the Schmitt trigger switching points after modulation from the Integrator is combined to the saw tooth ramp. The divided reference signal is differentiated and discharges C744 via Q711 after which Q711 is turned off allowing C744 to recharge via constant current source Q712; and, • Schmitt trigger comprising Q714 to Q716 converts the modulation combined with the saw tooth ramp to a square wave output, the duty cycle of which is controlled by the ramp slope and modulation. The modulation balance setting is carried out during alignment using a 100 Hz square wave (generated by the CODEC, U820) applied to the TX_MOD input and adjusted to give an optimum demodulated square wave output.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 4.7 4 - TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION 4.3.6 Reference Oscillator The TCXO, U700, determines the overall frequency stability and frequency accuracy of the radio. The frequency setting is achieved by adjusting its ADJ voltage with the Alignment Tool. In addition, the ADJ input is used in a frequency control loop with the receiver I and Q signals to provide receiver AFC. U700 operates at 14.4 MHz and is specified at ± 1.5 ppm frequency stability over the temperature range – 30 °C to + 80 °C. 4.4 SYSTEM CONTROLLER Refer to Figure 4-4.

The PLA is configured by the DSP under software control to provide the following functions: • channel set-up of operating frequencies; • modulation processing and filtering; • demodulation processing and filtering; • Tx power output reference;
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 4.8 4 - TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION • modulation balance adjustment; • receiver front-end tuning; • serial communications with alignment tool, microphone and control head; • modem functionality for data modulation; • all signalling / CTCSS generation and decoding; • DSP crystal oscillator control; • receiver muting control; • RSSI / AGC control; • AFC; • Tx / Rx switching and PTT control; • PLL lock detect; • audio switching; • power ON /OFF control; • interface functionality with option boards and external devices; and, • battery voltage and Tx current monitor. 4.4.2 DSP Clock Oscillator The DSP is clocked by a 15.360 MHz oscillator that consists of crystal X200 and an internal DSP oscillator circuit. Q200, Q201, Q202 form a crystal switching circuit with C205 which, when activated by a command (XTAL_SHIFT) from the PLA, steers the oscillator away from potential interfering frequencies. 4.4.3 PLA PWM 4.4.3.1 Analogue Outputs The PLA generates several analogue signals to control radio tuning. These outputs are derived from PWM signals. The front-end analogue tune values (TUNE1 to TUNE4) originate from the PLA in the form of integrated PWM signals. The values for these signals are stored in flash memory from radio alignment and selected depending on the channel that the radio is currently tuned to. These signals are integrated by RC networks to provide the analogue tuning voltages that are ultimately applied to the varactor tuning diodes. Other analogue PWM derived signals used are: • transmitter power (TX_PWR); • receiver AGC voltage (AGC); • receiver AFC voltage (AFC); • function enable (FUNCTION_EN); • varactor VCO tuning diode bias adjustment (VCAP_ADJ); and, • modulation balance (MOD_BAL). 4.4.3.2 Analogue Inputs Analogue inputs are monitored by comparators. Comparators U301A, B, C, D and U303A, B have their non-inverting inputs connected to a periodic ramp voltage generator, derived from a PWM signal from the PLA. Analogue voltages to be monitored are connected to the comparator inverting inputs. The analogue voltages are compared with the increasing ramp voltage. The comparator switches at the point where the ramp voltage exceeds the monitored voltage. The PLA determines the ramp signal time that this occurs, and converts it to a binary value.
TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 4.9 4 - TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION The monitored analogue voltages are: • Tx/Rx frequency synthesiser loop volts (LOOP_VOLTS); • MMI key detection (KEY_DET); • Tx PA current (TX_CURRENT); • Transceiver audio volume (VOLUME); • type of external device detection (EXT_SENSE); • battery voltage (BAT_SW); • Zone Switch value (ZONE); and, • Channel Switch value (CHANNEL). 4.4.4 Digital I/O 4.4.4.1 Bit Outputs Several ON / OFF digital outputs are used to control various sections of the transceiver: • enable/disable transceiver audio output (SPKR_ON); • control Tx / Rx PiN diode switch for Tx or Rx mode (PA_ON); • control Tx / Rx audio switch, U800A (TX_MODE); • control Tx audio source switch, U800C (EXT_SW); • switch off transceiver DC supply (PWR_OFF); • control Tx LED (RED); • control Rx LED (GREEN); • control MMI backlight (BLITE); and, • various analogue switch on / off control. 4.4.4.2 Bit Inputs The system controller scans various digital inputs to determine the state of the transceiver: • battery voltage (PWR_SENS); • Press-to-Talk switch status (PTT_IN1, PTT_IN2); • Accessory Key status (AK1, AK2); and, • Side Key status (SK1, SK2). 4.4.5 System Memory System memory consists of the internal DSP memory and an external 8 MB non-volatile flash memory U202. When power is off, all program software and data are retained in flash memory. At power-on, a boot program downloads the DSP and PLA software from flash memory to their internal RAM for faster program execution and access to data. PLA software is loaded by the factory into the flash memory and can be updated via the Alignment Tool. DSP software comprises Startup code that is also loaded by the factory. High-level software comprising Operational Code and Customer Configuration are loaded at distribution centres and are loaded via the FPP Programmer.

The output from Q900 feeds three low dropout series regulators (U905 not fitted), switched battery voltage and a switch-mode 3.3 V DC supply. These regulated supplies power auxiliary supplies as well as the negative voltage generator. The radio On /Off function is achieved through Q908 and Q909. The On/Off switch is connected between unswitched fused battery, BAT_FS, and PWR_ON. When the switch is turned on, a DC pulse is applied to Q908 that turns on the main FET switch Q900 for approximately 1 sec. In this time, the PLA samples the PWR_SENSE line and determines the state of the On/Off switch. If the On / Off switch is on, the PLA raises the PWR_OFF line and latches the main FET on, which then maintains power to the radio circuitry. The power off operation requires the On / Off switch to be turned off for more than 2 seconds. If the On / Off switch is sensed going low by the DSP via the PWR_SENSE line, the DSP will save radio settings and then lower the PWR_OFF line, thereby turning Q900 off.

TNM-M-E-0023 SRP9170/80 Service Manual Issue 1.00 Page 5.1 5 - ALIGNMENT 5. ALIGNMENT (LEVEL 3 SERVICE ONLY) This procedure is applicable to all versions of SRP9170/80 portable transceivers. If the radio contains customer configuration data that must be retained, you must first use the SRM / SRP Field Personality Programmer (FPP) software to read all radio configuration files and save them on to alternative media before commencing the alignment procedure. When the alignment is completed, use the FPP software to retrieve this stored data and write it back to the radio. It is preferred that the radio remains installed in its chassis so that appropriate shielding and battery supply are maintained. Note: Final Tx power adjustments must be performed with the radio board installed in the chassis. 5.1 TEST EQUIPMENT 1. Radio transceiver test set. CMT, 52/82 or similar. Note: for alternative equipment, the Mod Balance test requires internal DC coupling between the demodulated signal and demodulation output connector. 2.
