T3015 RF MODULE USER GUIDE TiL 126554 -1- INTRODUCTION The T3015 RF module is a Dual Band transceiver assembly that operates in 136-174 MHZ and 450-520 MHz range. The T3015 RF module is a modified Motorola APX 7000 VHF/UHHi portable radio. The outer casing, top controls, front display and keypad are removed. The RF chassis is slightly machined but all electronic circuits are unmodified from the original APX 7000 radio. The transceiver is designed to be installed and operated in a Technisonic Multiband Airborne Radio TDFM 9000 platform. All external power and antenna connections are provided by the TDFM 9000 as well as controls are via the front panel and display from the TDFM 9000. The RF module is capable of operating on Analog FM, Wide and Narrow and Project 25 Phase 1 conventional and P25 Trunked Phase 1 and 2 systems. FIGURE 1: Overall view of the T3015 RF Module

FCC COMPLIANCE INFORMATION This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. WARNING: For compliance with FCC RF Exposure Requirements the mobile transmitter antenna installation shall comply with the following two conditions: 1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 3 dBi. 2. The transmitter antenna is required to be located outside of a vehicle and kept at a separation distance of 80 cm or more between the transmitter antenna of this device and persons during operation. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: —Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. —Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. —Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. —Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
