Standard Configurations

The XPR 4000 Series mobile can be either dash mounted or remote mounted. The XPR 5000 Series mobile can only be dash mounted at this time.

1.2.1

Dash Mount Configuration

In the dash mount configuration of the mobile radio, the control head is mounted on the front of the transceiver housing. Electrical connection between the two takes place within the radio via a flexible cable between the connectors on the front of the transceiver and at the back of the control head.

Figure 1-6 Dash Mount Configuration

For details on this configuration, see Section 2.2.1 on page 2-5 .

1.2.2

Remote Mount Configuration (XPR 4000 Series Mobiles Only)

In the remote control version, the control head and the transceiver are mounted separately in the vehicle. The control head is mounted in a remote trunnion (PMLN4912_) near the operator using an extension cable. The transceiver is mounted using one of the trunnion mounting options shown in

Table 2-1 on page 2-4

. If the transceiver is located in a car trunk, be sure that secure mounting and sufficient cooling are provided. Do not cover the transceiver with baggage, blankets, etc.

See publication 6878397A01 for the MOTOTRBO XPR 4000 Series Mobile Radio remote mount control head installation instructions.

Introduction

1.3

Base/Control Stations

If the mobile radio equipment is installed at a fixed location and operated as a control station or as a fixed unit, the radio and antenna installation must comply with the following requirements in order to ensure optimal performance and compliance with the RF energy exposure limits in the standards and guidelines listed in the Safety Booklet (Motorola publication part number 68P81095C99_) provided with the radio:

C a u t i o n

For outdoor antenna installations, proper site grounding and lightning protection are vitally important.

Failure to provide proper lightning protection may result in permanent damage to the radio equipment.

Refer to Motorola Quality Standards Fixed Network Equipment Installation Manual R56 (which can be obtained by ordering CDROM 9880384V83) for complete information regarding lightning protection.

• The antenna should be mounted outside the building on the roof or a tower if at all possible and the antenna cable should be earth grounded.

• The radio chassis must be earth grounded and a lightning surge protector should be used in line with the radio connector and the outdoor antenna. The lightning surge protector should be earth grounded and located at the point where the antenna cable enters the building.

• The line voltage power supply must have a proper ground connection.

• As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the responsibility of the licensee to manage the site in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. Also, additional compliance actions such as site survey measurements, signage, and site access restrictions may be required in order to ensure that exposure limits are not exceeded.

2.1

Planning the Installation

The mobile radio operates only in negative ground electrical systems. Before starting the radio installation, make sure that the ground polarity of the vehicle is correct. Accidentally reversing the polarity will not damage the radio, but will cause the cable fuses to blow.

Planning is the key to fast, easy radio installation. Before starting the installation, inspect the vehicle and determine how and where you intend to mount the antenna, radio, and accessories. Plan wire and cable runs to provide maximum protection from pinching, crushing, and overheating.

C a u t i o n

Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer’s user manual. The installation of this device should be completed by an authorized servicer or installer.

Radio Mounting

Installation Details for Standard Configurations Radio Mounting

DO NOT mount the radio on a plastic dashboard without first reinforcing the dashboard; the weight of the radio may crack or break the dashboard.

C a u t i o n

C a u t i o n

DO NOT mount the radio on a flat or concave surface where the radio could be partially submersed in water. This is especially important if the cab area of the vehicle is cleaned by spraying with water. If the radio sits in water for a length of time, moisture may seep inside the radio and damage the electronic components.

DO NOT allow water to stand in recessed areas of vertically mounted radios. Remove any moisture immediately to prevent it from seeping down into the radio.

C a u t i o n

The mounting location must be accessible and visible. Select a location that will permit routing the

RF antenna cable as directly as possible.

For new or existing installations, use one of the mounting kits as specified in

Table 2-1

. Orient the mounting trunnion as shown in

Remote Mount with Trunnion

C a u t i o n

Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer’s user manual.

The installation of this device should be completed by an authorized servicer or installer.

Before making any holes in the trunk for radio mounting, check the vehicle manufacturer’s user manual for restrictions (e.g. due to the gas tank location).

For a remote mount installation, the transceiver may be mounted anywhere in the vehicle, provided that the installation location is safe, follows the cautions mentioned at the beginning of this section, and is accessible for servicing/maintenance as well as cabling. A typical mounting location recommended by Motorola is the vehicle’s trunk. The trunnion provided may still be used to mount the transceiver, and the mounting process is the same as for the dash mount installation.

See publication 6878397A01 for the MOTOTRBO XPR 4000 Series mobile radio remote mount control head installation instructions.

2.3

Power Cable

Route the red radio power cable from the radio to the vehicle’s battery compartment, using accepted industry methods and standards. Be sure to grommet the firewall hole to protect the cable. Remove the 15-Amp (part number 6580283E06) or 20-Amp (part number 6580283E07) fuse from the fuseholder and connect the red lead of the radio power cable to the positive battery terminal using the hardware provided as shown in

Figure 2-12

. Connect the black lead to a convenient solid chassis ground point. DO NOT connect the black lead directly to the battery’s negative terminal.

2.4

Ignition Sense Cable

Motorola supplies an ignition sense cable and recommends that it be used with every mobile installation. The ignition sense cable allows the radio to be turned on and off with the vehicle ignition switch, and allows the radio to “remember” the state of the radio on/off switch, even if it is changed while the vehicle is off.

• For radio ON/OFF control independent of the ignition switch, connect the red ignition cable (pin

25 of accessory connector) to “battery hot” at the vehicle fuse block (dash mount only).

• For radio ON/OFF control via the ignition switch, connect the red ignition cable to “ignition” at the fuse block.

The ignition sense cable uses either a 3-Amp (P/N 6500139764) or 4-Amp (P/N 6580283E02) fuse.

For other considerations when connecting the ignition cable, see the MOTOTRBO XPR 4350/4550

5550 Mobile Basic Service Manual (Motorola publications part number 68009515001_).

2.5

Antenna Installation

IMPORTANT NOTE: To assure optimum performance and compliance with RF Energy Safety standards, these antenna installation guidelines and instructions are limited to metal-body vehicles with appropriate ground planes and take into account the potential exposure of back seat passengers and bystanders outside the vehicle.

NOTE: For mobile radios with rated power of 7 watts or less, the only installation restrictions are to use only Motorola approved antennas and install the antenna externally on metal body vehicles. For mobile radios with rated power greater than 7 Watts, always adhere to all the

guidelines and restrictions in Section 2.5.1

below.

2.5.1

Selecting an Antenna Site/Location on a Metal Body Vehicle

1. External Installation - Check the requirements of the antenna supplier and install the vehicle antenna external to a metal body vehicle in accordance with those requirements.

2. Roof Top - For optimum performance and compliance with RF Energy Safety Standards, mount the antenna in the center of the roof.

3. Trunk Lid - On some vehicles with clearly defined, flat trunk lids, the antennas of some radio models (see restrictions below) can also be mounted on the center area of the trunk lid. For vehicles without clearly defined, flat trunk lids (such as hatchback autos, sport utility vehicles, and pick-up trucks), mount the antenna in the center of the roof.

BEFORE INSTALLING AN ANTENNA ON THE TRUNK LID,

- Be sure that the distance from the antenna location on the trunk lid will be at least

85 cm (33 inches) from the front surface of the rear seat-back to assure compliance with RF

Energy Safety standards.

- Ensure that the trunk lid is grounded by connecting grounding straps between the trunk lid and the vehicle chassis.

NOTE: If these conditions cannot be satisfied, then mount the antenna on the roof top.

4. Ensure the antenna cable can be easily routed to the radio. Route the antenna cable as far away as possible from the vehicle electronic control units and associated wiring.

5. Check the antenna location for any electrical interference.

2-12 Installation Details for Standard Configurations Antenna Installation

6. Make sure the mobile radio antenna is installed at least 30 centimeters (1 foot) away from any other antenna on the vehicle.

7. For XPR Series Mobile Radio models with GPS using a GPS only or a combined RF/GPS antenna, ensure that the antenna has a clear view of the sky and that the antenna base with the GPS receiver is not covered by any metallic or radio frequency absorbing material. Any non-glass-mount GPS antenna should be positioned next to the RF antenna. Any other mobile radio antenna should be at least 30 centimeters (1 foot) away from the RF antenna.

NOTE: Any two metal pieces rubbing against each other (such as seat springs, shift levers, trunk and hood lids, exhaust pipes, etc.) in close proximity to the antenna can cause severe receiver interference.

2.5.2

Antenna Installation Procedure

1. Mount the antenna according to the instructions provided with the antenna kit. Run the coaxial cable to the radio mounting location. If necessary, cut off the excess cable and install the cable connector.

2. Connect the antenna cable connector to the radio antenna connector on the rear of the radio.

3. In case of a GPS model, connect the GPS antenna to the GPS antenna connector on the rear of the radio.

2.5.3

Antenna Connection

To ensure a secure connection of an antenna cable's mini-UHF plug to a radio's mini-UHF jack, their interlocking features must be properly engaged. If they are not properly engaged, the system will loosen.

NOTE: Applying excessive force with a tool can cause damage to the antenna or the connector (e.g., stripping threads, deforming the collar or connector, or causing the connector to twist in the housing opening and break).

Motorola recommends the following sequence to ensure proper attachment of the system (see

Figure 2-14

):

Mini UHF

Jack

Collar Pulled

Back to Flange

Cable

Figure 2-14 Mini-UHF Connection

1. Make sure that there is sufficient slack in the antenna cable.

2. Make sure that the collar of the antenna cable plug is loose and does not bind.

3. Slide the collar back against the flange. Insert the antenna cable plug’s pin fully into the radio jack, but do not engage the threads.

4. Ensure that the plug’s and jack’s interlocking features are fully seated. Check this by grasping the crimp on the cable jack, rotating the cable, and noting any movement. If the features are seated correctly, there should be NO movement.

5. Finger-tighten the antenna cable plug’s collar onto the radio’s jack.

6. Give a final tug, by hand, to the collar, and retighten by hand as firmly as possible.

7. Use the rubber-coated pliers to grip the plug’s knurled collar, then turn clockwise to tighten the collar. It should take 1/4 turn or less. Turning counterclockwise loosens the collar.

NOTE: Overtightening the collar can damage the connector and the radio.

Horn and Lights (External Alarm) Relay

Allows the user to be alerted to an incoming call when away from the vehicle. The vehicle's horn or lights or both are used depending on which option is connected to the accessory port. When the radio receives a call alert or emergency alarm/call, there is a delay before activating the horn and/or lights. The delay is programmable using the Horn & Lights Delay Time feature in the CPS. Once activated, the Horn and/or Lights remain active depending on the option selected. The Horn & Lights feature can be toggled between ON or OFF, via a short or long programmable button press (Horn &

Lights On/Off) or Horn/Lights (Utilities Menu) feature.

For installations that use the horn/lights option, select a suitable location for mounting (normally

under the dash) and, referring to Figure 3-4 , perform the following procedure:

1. Horn Relay – Connect the relay contacts across the horn ring switch, typically found in the steering column. Connect the two control wires (female pins) into locations 26 and 18 of the connector.

2. Lights Relay – Connect the relay across the headlamp ON/OFF switch, typically found in the steering column. Connect the two control wires (female pins) into locations 26 and 18 of the accessory connector.

DO NOT ground the radio's speaker leads. This system has a floating speaker output (dc voltage on both leads); damage to the audio circuit will result if either lead is grounded or if they are shorted together.

The external speaker kit includes a trunnion bracket that allows the speaker to be mounted in a variety of ways. With the trunnion bracket, the external speaker can mount permanently on the dashboard or in accessible firewall areas. The trunnion allows the external speaker to tilt for best operation. Mount the external speaker out of the way so that it will not be kicked or knocked around by the vehicle occupants. Mount the external speaker as follows:

1. Use the external speaker mounting bracket as a template to mark the mounting hole locations.

2. Use the self-drilling screws provided to fasten the trunnion.

3. Attach the external speaker and fasten to the trunnion with two wing screws.

4. Route the speaker wires under the carpet or floor covering, or behind the kick panels. Be sure the wires are out of the way and will not be snagged and broken by the occupants of the vehicle.

Notes

Chapter 4 Best Practices: Installation & Troubleshooting

In this section are Motorola recommended vehicle installation practices that can address or prevent many issues, including:

• Radio circuit damage due to over voltage condition

• Radio/Accessories "lock up"

• Radio/Accessories change state/lock-up when radio PTT is depressed

• Radio intermittently resets

• Alternator whine present when transmitting with engine running

• Radio/Accessories turn themselves on/off

4.1

Check Wiring of Ignition and Radio Ignition Sensing

• If it is required to turn the radio on and off via the ignition sense switch, in addition to the control head’s on/off switch, connect the ignition sense lead to the accessory terminal from the ignition switch (usually in the vehicle’s fuse panel under accessory or radio).

NOTE: Motorola recommends protecting or isolating the radio’s ignition sense input from voltage spikes in excess of +/- 40 VDC. Such spikes can be hundreds of volts in amplitude and are common in larger vehicles (utility trucks, buses and etc.), especially when the source is common to a solenoid coil. A triggerable oscilloscope is required to determine the existence of such spikes as most voltmeters cannot measure in short duration (< 1 msec). If the condition of the intended ignition sense source is unknown, Motorola recommends isolating the source from the radio with a relay or the use of a suppression diode wired between the source and ground. Any high current suppression diode (i.e. MR2535) with a breakdown voltage of between 18 and 40 volts will suffice. A suitable diode kit is available from Motorola parts, kit number HLN6325_.

• If it is required to have the radio power up only via the control head’s on/off switch, then connect the ignition sense lead directly to the positive terminal of the battery. This will mean the ignition sense will always be ignored and a re-wiring will be necessary in the future if the operator chooses any ignition sense CPS setting.

4-2

Best Practices: Installation & Troubleshooting

4.2

Check Physical Installation of Radio Ground and Radio Accessory

Wiring

• Take care to scrape away paint on the chassis at the place where the ground connection is to be made, and try to keep the ground lead as short as possible.

• Verify that the A+ lead (red) is connected directly to the positive terminal of the battery and the ground lead (black) is connected to the vehicle’s chassis using as short of a length of wire as is practical.

• For vehicles that have other types of electronic equipment installed (lights, flashers, computers siren/PA and etc.), use a separate ground for the mobile radio equipment.

• Make sure that the mobile radio antenna is the minimum required distance (three feet) from the mobile radio equipment to prevent radio frequency interference (RFI) from interfering with the radio and/or accessories.

• Do not coil up any excess length of the A+ (red) lead. Doing this may cause a large transient voltage to be produced when there is a high current drain (e.g. during transmit). This could cause the radio to reset when the push-to-talk (PTT) is depressed.

• Do not coil up any excessive length of antenna cable, if possible. It may affect the radio’s receive performance.

4.3

Improve the Electrical Quality of the Power and Ignition Lines

• Use a relay to isolate the vehicle’s ignition switch point (ACC) from the radio’s ignition sense point. Control this relay from the vehicle’s ignition switch point (ACC). Supply a cleaner voltage from the positive terminal of the battery into the relay, which will now be attached to the radio’s ignition sense point. Now the ACC line toggles the relay, instead of directly toggling the radios ignition sense line.

• Install a Power Line Filter between the A+ lead and the positive terminal of the battery. This is intended to filter the battery power applied to the transmitter power amplifiers. Pay extra caution to this because the series filter will introduce a negative spike when the radio transmits that may cause problems with radio operation.

• For vehicles that use electromechanical relays to control external devices (lights, motors, switch boxes and etc.), these relay circuits should be isolated as best as possible from the mobile radio equipment. Also, diode suppression should be used across the relay contacts to minimize the noise produced by the collapsing magnetic field.

• If the ignition sense switch is to be used, make sure that there is not a large voltage drop between the A+ point (usually the positive terminal of the battery) and the ignition sense point. In general, the voltage difference between these two points, should not be greater than

1.5 volts when all accessories/air-conditioner, etc. are turned on. Refer to the Basic Service

Manual for specifications for minimum and maximum voltage levels. Typical battery voltage levels are 13.6V +/- 20%.

Best Practices: Installation & Troubleshooting 4-3

4.4

Jump-Start the Vehicle

C a u t i o n

Do not jump-start vehicle with radio power or ignition sense cables connected.

Damage to the radio and/or accessories may result.

The state of your radio prior to needing a jump-start may be unknown, and the radio may attempt to return to its last state (radio ON), when doing a jump-start. Therefore, Motorola recommends the following steps be taken before jump-starting any vehicle containing a radio.

1. Locate the ignition sense line and the main power leads (thick red wire) near the battery positive terminal.

NOTE: These lines are fused. In the event these lines are not fused (add the appropriate fuse in line) use whatever tools necessary to physically disconnect the ignition sense and power lines from the battery terminal.

2. Open up the fuse holders and remove the fuses out of the kits.

3. Re-tighten the fuse holders but without the fuses to insure that ignition sense and power lines do not interfere with any moving parts.

4. Proceed with the jump-start routine as described by your vehicle owner’s manual.

5. Once the jump-start process is complete, re-install the fuses into their holders.

4.5

Eliminate Noise/Howling from PA Speaker

1. Refer to

Section 2.1.2

for recommended methods of installation available for the mobile two-way radio, with accessories placed to the vehicle as desired.

2. Refer to
