ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY
NOTE: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if
inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility. It may be
necessary to conduct compatibility testing to determine if any electronic equipment used in or around
vehicles or near fixed site antenna is sensitive to external RF energy or if any procedures need to be
followed to eliminate or mitigate the potential for interaction between the radio transmitter and the
equipment or device.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in any
facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
To avoid possible interaction between the radio transmitter and any vehicle electronic control
modules, for example, ABS, engine, or transmission controls, the radio should be installed only by an
experienced installer and that the following precautions be used when installing the radio:
1. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions or other technical bulletins or recommendations on radio installation.
2. Before installing the radio, determine the location of the electronic control modules and their harnesses in
the vehicle.
3. 3. Route all radio wiring, including the antenna transmission line, as far away as possible from the electronic
control units and associated wiring.
Driver Safety
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the area where you drive. Always obey them.
When using your radio while driving, please:
● Give full attention to driving and to the road.
● Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
OPERATIONAL WARNINGS
For Vehicles With An Air Bag
Do not mount or place a mobile radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air
bags inflate with great force. If a radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag
inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the
vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Sparks in a
potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death.
The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fuelling areas such as
below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders. Areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres are often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps And Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near
electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted:
"Turn off two-way radio". Obey all signs and instructions.
vi
For radios installed in vehicles fueled by liquefied petroleum gas, refer to the (U.S.) National Fire
Protection Association standard, NFPA 58, for storage, handling, and/or container information. For a

MAINTENANCE
1.0 Introduction
This chapter provides details about the following:
❑ Preventive maintenance (inspection and cleaning).
❑ Safe handling of CMOS and LDMOS devices.
❑ Disassembly and reassembly of the radio.
❑ Repair procedures and techniques.
❑ Installation of Option Boards.
2.1 Inspection
Check that the external surfaces of the radio are clean, and that all external controls and switches
are functional. It is not recommended to inspect the interior electronic circuitry.
NOTE Internal surfaces should be cleaned only when the radio is disassembled for service or
repair.
The only recommended agent for cleaning the external radio surfaces is a 0.5% solution of a mild
dishwashing detergent in water. The only factory recommended liquid for cleaning the printed circuit
boards and their components is isopropyl alcohol (70% by volume).
CAUTION: The effects of certain chemicals and their vapors can have harmful results on
! certain plastics. Avoid using aerosol sprays, tuner cleaners, and other chemicals.
CAUTION: This radio contains static-sensitive devices. Do not open the radio unless you are
! properly grounded. Take the following precautions when working on this unit:
❑ Store and transport all CMOS devices in conductive material so that all exposed
leads are shorted together. Do not insert CMOS devices into conventional plastic
“snow” trays used for storage and transportation of other semiconductor devices.
❑ Ground the working surface of the service bench to protect the CMOS device. We
recommend using the Motorola Static Protection Assembly (part number
0180386A82), which includes a wrist strap, two ground cords, a table mat, and a
floor mat.
❑ Wear a conductive wrist strap in series with a 100k resistor to ground.
(Replacement wrist straps that connect to the bench top covering are Motorola part
number 4280385A59)
❑ Do not wear nylon clothing while handling CMOS devices.
❑ Do not insert or remove CMOS devices with power applied. Check all power
supplies used for testing CMOS devices to be certain that there are no voltage
transients present.
❑ When straightening CMOS pins, provide ground straps for the apparatus used.
❑ When soldering, use a grounded soldering iron.
❑ If at all possible, handle CMOS devices by the package and not by the leads. Prior to
touching the unit, touch an electrical ground to remove any static charge that you
may have accumulated. The package and substrate may be electrically common. If
so, the reaction of a discharge to the case would cause the same damage as
touching the leads.
Repair Procedures and Techniques — General 2-3
NOTE Ensure that the volume knob is in the OFF position before disassembling the radio.
2. Insert the flat screw driver (4 mm maximum) into the slot and push the plastic up.
Do the same with the second slot to free the control head from the chassis assembly. See
Figure 2-2.

LLE Low Level Expander: slight amount of volume expansion; used to improve the
signal to noise ratio.
LSH Low-Speed Handshake: 150 baud digital data sent to the radio during trunked
operation while receiving audio.
OSW Outbound Signalling Word: data transmitted on the control channel from the
central controller to the subscriber unit.
PLL Phase-Locked Loop: a circuit in which an oscillator is kept in phase with a refer-
ence, usually after passing through a frequency divider.
PTT Push-To-Talk: the switch located on the left side of the radio which, when
pressed, causes the radio to transmit.
RAM Random Access Memory: the radio’s RAM is loaded with a copy of the
EEPROM data.
RPT/TA Repeater/Talk-Around
SPI (clock and data Serial Peripheral Interface: how the microcontroller communicates to modules
lines) and ICs through the CLOCK and DATA lines.
Squelch Muting of audio circuits when received signal levels fall below a pre-determined
value
Standby Mode An operating mode whereby the radio is muted but still continues to receive
data
System Central Con- Main control unit of the trunked dispatch system; handles ISW and OSW mes-
troller sages to and from subscriber units (see ISW and OSW).
System Select The act of selecting the desired operating system with the system-select switch
(also, the name given to this switch).
