General Safety Precautions
Warning: Compliance with FCC guidelines for human exposure to Electromagnetic Energy (EME) at
Transmitter Antenna sites generally requires that personnel working at a site must be aware of the potential for exposure to EME, and can exercise control of exposure by appropriate means, such as adhering to warning sign instructions, using standard operating procedures (work practices), wearing personal protective equipment, or limiting the duration of exposure. For more details and specific guidelines, see
“Appendix A” of the Motorola Standards and Guidelines for Communications Sites manual.
Observe the following general safety precautions during all phases of operation, service, and repair of the equipment described in this manual. Follow the safety precautions listed and all other warnings and cautions necessary for the safe operation of all equipment. See the appropriate section of the product service manual for additional pertinent safety information. Due to the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modifications of equipment.
Note: The installation process requires preparation and knowledge of the site before installation begins.
Review installation procedures and precautions in the Motorola Standards and Guidelines for
Communications Sites manual before performing any site or component installation.

GTR 8000 Base Radio FRU Procedures
GTR 8000 Base Radios are composed of numerous Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) and field replaceable parts. If you must replace a FRU or part, it is essential to obtain the precise FRU Kit Number or part number, and to review the replacement procedures provided, including all safety precautions and system impact information.
This chapter lists the FRUs and Field Replaceable Entities (FREs), and includes replacement procedures applicable to
GTR 8000 Base Radio.
Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) and Parts
When ordering Field Replaceable Units (FRUs), provide the FRU Kit Number. When ordering field replaceable parts, provide the part number. Contact Motorola Solution Support Center (SSC) as needed for numbers not provided here
(for cables internal to a GTR 8000 Base Radio, the part numbers are not listed in this documentation, but you can locate the part number on the cable before contacting Motorola SSC). See Motorola Solution Support Center on page
211 .
Warning: To guard against personal injury and/or damage to equipment, switch a trunked base radio to
Service Mode when performing service. The GTR 8000 Base Radio periodically keys up to pseudo train its linear transmitter autonomously when not assigned by the zone controller. Tx Inhibiting the base radio also prevents the transmitter from keying. Remember to switch the base radio back to Normal Mode when service is complete.

GTR 8000 Base Radio Optimization
Your Motorola Field Representative or Motorola Solution Support Center (SSC) can advise you on optimization activities required for your system, if any. See Motorola Solution Support Center on page 211 .
This chapter contains optimization procedures and recommended settings relating to GTR 8000 Base Radio.
Aligning the Internal Frequency Reference Oscillator
The transceiver option card within a base radio provides an internal 10 MHz frequency reference which can be used as the primary or backup frequency reference source for the device. For conventional base radio operation, it also provides the analog interfaces and wildcard I/Os.
After a base radio is installed or after the transceiver option card is replaced, align the internal frequency reference oscillator.
Align the transceiver option card internal frequency reference oscillator to within 1 ppb (parts per billion). The measuring equipment used to make this alignment must be accurate to within 1 ppb. This accuracy typically requires test equipment with a double oven or a Rubidium reference oscillator.
Note: The base radio must be turned on for at least one week before the internal frequency reference oscillator is aligned.
Align the internal frequency reference oscillator for an Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator (OCXO) transceiver option card:
• Upon installation of the base radio for all bands.
• Once every two years after installation for 700/800 MHz systems.
• Once every five years after installation for UHF systems.
• VHF systems do not require alignment after initial installation.
Align the internal frequency reference oscillator for a Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) transceiver option card:
• Upon installation of the base radio for UHF.
• Every year after installation for UHF.
The internal frequency reference oscillator can be aligned using two methods: manual alignment or auto alignment.
See “Base Radio Service Help → Service Screens → Alignment Screens” in the CSS Online Help for the alignment procedures.
GTR 8000 Base Radio Time and Frequency Inputs
Various external time and frequency inputs can be provided to the base radio for normal operation or for Internal
Frequency Reference Oscillator alignment. The following table provides a list of acceptable input signal types and levels for each input port.

GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation
For an understanding of the GTR 8000 Base Radio components, review the modules that provide the base radio functionality, the modules that provide RF distribution functionality (RFDS), and the backplane that connects to other modules within the site.
This chapter explains how the GTR 8000 Base Radio works in the context of your system.
Functions of the GTR 8000 Base Radio Modules
The following lists GTR 8000 Base Radio modules:
• Transceiver (XCVR) module (with or without a transceiver option card)
• Power amplifier module
• Fan module
• Power supply module
Function of the Transceiver Module
The transceiver module provides the control, exciter, receiver, and optional transceiver option card for the base radio.
Figure 5: Transceiver Module (Front View)
The transceiver generates the station reference, which typically must be locked on to one of many possible external sources. The external source can be either the site controller TDM clocks or the external reference operating at 5 MHz or 10 MHz.
The transceiver SPI bus allows communication with its receiver and exciter circuitry, as well as the power supply module and power amplifier module.
Two or three circuit boards in the transceiver are:
• Transceiver Control Board : Performs the control management, digital signal processing, and transmit and receive data formatting for the base radio.
• Transceiver RF Board : Contains DC power conversion/regulation and performs receiver and exciter functions.
• Transceiver Option Card : An optional board that attaches to the control board. Provides an internal 10 MHz frequency reference. For conventional operation, it also provides the analog interfaces and WildCard I/Os. The transceiver option card requires an internal frequency reference oscillator alignment at different intervals

Equipment Type: ABZ89FC5810B / 109AB-5810B mandated by its category and frequency band. See Base Radio Service Help > Service Screens > Alignment
Screens in the CSS Online Help for the alignment procedures and mandated intervals. The transceiver option card is available in two categories:
OCXO (Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator) – operates at 0.1 ppm and is inclusive to temperature and aging. The OCXO Transceiver Option Card is available in 700/800 MHz, UHF R1/R2, and VHF frequency bands.
TCXO (Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator) – operates at 1.5 ppm, of which 0.5 ppm is allocated to temperature, and 1.0 ppm is allocated to aging. Reference precision with the TCXO is traded for lower power consumption. The TCXO mandates shorter maintenance intervals. The TCXO transceiver option card is available in UHF R1/R2 frequency bands. The TXCO is only available for non-simulcast conventional systems.
Transceiver Control Board
The main operating software for the base radio is loaded in the XCVRs control section. As the main manager for the base radio, the XCVR control board provides operational control over the other station modules. It handles three types of information flow, in the following ways:
• Serves as a gateway between the network and RF functionality, by distributing the RF payload to and from the network.
• Supports operational and diagnostic functions with digital control data (for example: site information, channel assignments, and identification numbers for call processing).
• Ensures the flow of other network management configuration information.
Figure 6: Transceiver Control Board Information Flow on page 64 shows the information flow through the transceiver control and RF sections for trunked and conventional operation.
Figure 6: Transceiver Control Board Information Flow
Transceiver RF Board
In addition to DC power conversion/regulation, the XCVR RF board provides circuitry for the following exciter and receiver functions.
Exciter
The exciter on the XCVR RF board provides the transmitter functions for the base radio. The exciter circuitry generates a low-level, modulated RF signal that passes to the power amplifier. It supports various modulation types as well as bandwidths up to 25 kHz, through software programming.
The exciter also provides a controlled output power level to the power amplifier.

Receiver
The receiver provides either single receiver input or dual (HPD or TDMA) receiver inputs for dual diversity. The receiver also provides enhanced diagnostic capabilities using an on board noise source generator. It includes a wide tuning range (electronic varactor-tuned) preselector. The preselector is electronically tuned to the desired receive frequency anywhere between 792–825 MHz, UHF R1 380–435 MHz, UHF R2 435–524 MHz, or VHF 136–174
MHz.
Transceiver External Interfaces
The transceiver external interfaces include seven external ports, a switch, and LEDs. If a transceiver option card is part of the transceiver, there are four additional external ports. See Front Connections on page 111 for the port connections. See LEDs on page 251 for information on the LEDs.
Transceiver Switch
The multifunction RESET switch on the front of the transceiver module is accessible through the drop-down door to the left of the fans. The RESET switch has two functions:

Transceiver Ports (Rear)
The transceiver interconnects to the backplane using a 120-pin HVDML digital connector and 8-pack RF connector, as shown in the figure. These connections handle multiple signals including power supply communications, power amplifier communications, fan interface, and peripheral interface. The digital connection receive alarm data and the site controller Time Division Multiplexer (TDM) signals used to pass reference and control data to the base radio.
Figure 9: Transceiver Module (Backplane Connections)
• Single Receiver Input: An RJ-45 Ethernet port on the backplane is cabled to a site LAN switch for this channel.
The backplane also provides an RF connection to the transceiver for receive (Rx) path A.
• Dual Receiver Input: RJ-45 Ethernet ports on the backplane are cabled to corresponding ports on the site controller backplanes (HPD). The backplane also provides RF connections to the transceiver for receive (Rx) paths A and B (HPD and TDMA).
Function of the Power Amplifier Module
The power amplifier (PA) is a forced convection-cooled RF power amplifier. It accepts a low-level modulated RF signal from the transceiver module, and amplifies it for transmission through the site transmit antenna. Also, to complete the Cartesian correction loop (linearization method), it provides a low-level RF feedback signal to the transceiver module to achieve the required transmitter linearity.
Transmit power output can be set using Configuration/Service Software (CSS). See Configuring Tx Power Values and Battery Type on page 151 .
The power amplifier also performs functions related to the fan module, including reporting of the fan module status and supplying power to the fan power bus.

The power amplifier is comprised of six internal modules:
• Core Board
• Converter Board
• Driver Amplifier Board
• Final Amplifier Board
• Distribution Board
• Output Circuitry
Power Amplifier Input/Output Connections
There are three electrical connection assemblies on the power amplifier:
• RF output (front QN "quick-N" connector) on the front of the power amplifier module
Note: This is cabled to the N-type female bulkhead connection at the rear of the base radio housing.
• DC power supply/control signal (backplane connection)
• RF input/feedback (backplane connection).
Figure 11: Power Amplifier (Backplane Connections)
Function of the Fan Module
The fan module provides intermittent forced-air cooling for the power amplifier and transceiver modules. The fan module houses two 119 mm axial fans which deliver a total of approximately 160 cubic feet per minute of airflow.
Nominal fan speed is 4100 revolutions per minute. A thermostat behind the fan module controls each fan. If the fan speed for either fan falls below 30% of the rated speed, a built-in speed sensor on each fan turns on the red Fan Alarm
LED.
If the fan module is used for the Power Efficiency Package, the following must be configured in the Configuration/
Service Software (CSS) to take full advantage of the Power Efficiency Package:
• Optional fan holdover time (length of time the fan stays ON after transmission).
• Disabling one of the fans within the fan module. See Replacing the Fan Assembly on page 226 for instructions on how to disable one of the fans.
• Configuring the base radios Tx Power Out in the CSS should be limited to 50 W.
The fan module connects to the backplane through a 4-pin port on the front of the chassis.

Function of the Power Supply
The power supply, with front-to-rear airflow, operates from either an AC or DC input and provides the DC operating voltage for the base radio. However the power supply prioritizes an AC source (if present) over a DC source.

When operating from an AC source (90 to 264 VAC, 47-63 Hz), the supply generates two DC output voltages of 29 V with respect to output ground. The power supply automatically adjusts to AC input ranges and supplies a steady output.
In AC mode, the power supply provides a separate battery charger which can be used to maintain the charge on a 48
VDC nominal system, positive or negative ground, if installed. The supply generates two DC output voltages of 29 V with respect to output ground, when operating from a DC source (43.2 VDC to 60 VDC maximum), positive or negative ground. This voltage limit includes consideration of the battery charging "float voltage" associated with the intended supply system, regardless of the marked power rating of the equipment. Whether in AC, Battery Revert, or
DC Only mode, at a voltage of 42 V or lower, the power supply shuts down to not damage any connected battery bank. Once this condition occurs, the power supply starts only after the applied voltage exceeds 45 V.
The battery charger is not usable when operating from a DC input power source. This DC source must be located in the same building as the base radio, and it must meet the requirements of a SELV circuit.
The power supply contains several switching-type power supply circuits as follows:
• Power factor correction circuitry
• Battery charging circuitry
• Diagnostics and monitoring circuitry
The power supply controls its own continuously running fan, changing its speed to fast, or slow as needed.
Note:
If the power supply module is used for the Power Efficiency Package, the power supply fan does not run below a 40 °C air inlet temperature in DC mode with the transmitter in a de-keyed state.
