Lists the spare parts applicable to the topics covered in this handbook (each equipments full parts-listing is contained in the associated technical handbook). Section 6. PAE drawings applicable to this handbook. The drawings are referenced in the text as Fig. 1, Fig. 2 etc. It should be noted that in-text illustrations are referenced by the section and figure number; for example, Fig. 3-1. EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW 4 Series 3000DV2 radios can operate in the VHF 100 to 163 MHz and/or UHF 225 to 339.975 MHz frequency bands, with 25 kHz channel spacing. 8.33 kHz channel spacing is also available in the VHF band between 118.000 MHz and 136.975 MHz. Standard operating modes are amplitude modulation

(AM) or frequency modulation (FM) with both clear voice and data (16 kBit cypher) modes selectable. When 8.33 kHz channel spacing is used, the radio automatically defaults to AM, clear voice mode. 5 The radios are suitable for use in voice encryption systems and Link 11 applications. All UHF sets can be equipped with an internal ECCM module to provide Have Quick II frequency hopping operation

(for Have Quick operating instructions refer to document PAE 31B33060SUP). 6 The equipments operating frequency is selected using the front panels numeric data keys. Up to 99 pre-set channels can be stored in the equipments memory. Each stored channel contains frequency and operating mode information. Pre-set channels can be recalled for operational use, or recalled for display without altering the operational frequency. 7 The transceiver and transmitter equipments produce a maximum output of 40 watts in AM mode and 60 watts in FM mode. The output power can be reduced by using a front panel control. If a PAE 3640 power amplifier is used in conjunction with a 3000DV2 transmitter or transceiver, the radios FM output is automatically reduced to 40 watts to produce a 100 watt output from the power amplifier. Power Supplies The radios can be operated from standard ac input supplies, or from a low voltage dc supply (refer 8 to section 2, specification). Both ac and dc input supplies can be simultaneously connected to the equipment. Section 1 Page 2 3000DV2 Radios 9 When both ac and dc supplies are connected, operation from the ac supply takes priority; automatic change-over to the dc supply will occur if the ac supply fails. On restoration of the ac supply, the equipment reverts to ac operation. Built-in Test Facility 10 A built-in test (BIT) facility monitors essential parameters within the equipment, and displays an error message if a fault is found. The BIT functions in three different ways:

It allows certain equipment parameters to be displayed only when selected by the user. It continuously performs certain test routines while the equipment is operating. It provides a complete check of the equipment when selected to do so by the user. During this operation, normal operation of the equipment is suspended. 11 Full details of BIT operation and the resultant error messages are given in section 4. TYPES OF INSTALLATION 12 The series 3000DV2 radios can be installed in one of four ways:

Mounted on fixed runners within a standard 483 mm (19 inch) equipment rack. Fitted on telescopic slides within a standard 483 mm (19 inch) equipment rack. As a free-standing desktop equipment using the PAE free-standing accessory kit. In mobile applications using the PAE free-standing accessory kit plus an anti-vibration mount kit. Control of Equipment 13 The radios can be controlled in local, or remote modes. In local mode, control of the equipment is by using the front panel controls and indicators as detailed in section 4. In addition to the front panel controls, a number of inputs, outputs and control facilities can be configured through the rear panel facilities socket. A full list of the facilities can be found in section 3. 14 As an alternative to local control, a PAE series 3000V2 Remote Control Unit (RCU) can be used; the RCU replicates many of the radios front panel controls and indicators. The radios remote control module can be configured for operation through dc or ac (tone) circuits. When configured for dc operation, the RCU can be located (using suitable land lines) up to 1 km (1043 yards) from the equipment. When configured for ac operation, no dc path is required between the equipment and the RCU; this enables the control circuits to be routed, for example, through a microwave link. 15 For remote management of the equipment, and when part of a communication system, the PAE Multi-Access Remote Control (MARC) system can be used. 3000DV2 Radios Section 1 Page 3 OPTIONS 16 In addition to the standard operational functions the following options are available (see Table 1-1 for applicability to your model).

INTRODUCTION Installation involves the connection of lethal voltages. The instructions detailed in this section must be carried out only by suitably qualified personnel. Warning!

The series 3000DV2 radios weigh in excess of 25 kg; care must be taken when lifting and handling these units. At least two people must be used to lift the equipment. This section details the installation and setting-up instructions for the equipment. It is recommended 1 that the instructions given in this section are carried out in the order presented. INSTALLATION PRELIMINARY CHECKS Carefully remove the transit packaging from the equipment and carry out a visual inspection of the 2 unit for signs of damage that may have occurred during shipment. Note ... It is recommended that if a claim for damage in transit is to be made the packaging and/or containers should be retained to substantiate the claim. 3 Table 3-1 details the internal user adjustments for series 3000DV2 radios with column (3) showing the manufacturers standard settings. Check that settings applicable to your equipment meet the required operational conditions. Note that the radio(s) are normally configured to a users requirements during manufacture at Park Air Electronics. Table 3-1 is therefore given for informational purposes only. If there is a need to alter any settings reference to the appropriate technical handbook(s) may be required. 4 If adjustments are required to be made to the internal standard settings remove the top cover and locate the appropriate module as indicated in Table 3-1. If the equipment is configured as a desktop or module installation, the olive green top cover will have to be removed prior to the removal of the equipment top cover. To access the components locate and loosen the two securing slotted head screws and withdraw the module. Refitting is the reverse of removal. 3000DV2 Radios Section 3 Page 3 Table 3-1 3000DV2 Radio Standard Settings Module/Component Function Standard Setting

As a desktop equipment by using the PAE free-standing accessory kit. In mobile applications by using the PAE free-standing accessory kit plus an anti-vibration mount accessory kit. Caution!

It is essential that the chosen mechanical installation provides adequate support along the depth (front to rear) of the radio. Under no circumstances must the radio be supported by the front panel; doing so can cause irreparable damage. Fixed Runner 6 If using fixed runners, they must provide adequate support along the depth (front to rear), at both sides of the unit. The unit is secured to the rack through the four front panel fixing holes using suitable hardware. The front panel fixing holes must not be used at any time to support the equipment. Telescopic Slides 7 If using telescopic slides, reference should be made to Fig. 5. Four M4 tapped holes, each 10 mm deep, are provided each side of the equipment for fitting the runners. Dependent on the rack/slide combination used, it may be necessary to fit a spacer bar between the runner and the equipment. The width of the spacer must be such that the runners locate correctly within the slide assemblies. Note ... Details of suitable telescopic slides are available from PAE. 3000DV2 Radios Section 3 Page 5 Desktop Installation 8 The following installation instructions configure the equipment for desktop operation using a free-standing accessory kit (PAE part no. 70-3060TR1).

All of this section is applicable to 3000DV2 transceivers. Series 3000DV2 transmitter and receiver users should only read those parts of this section applicable to their type of equipment. 2 As an alternative to operating the equipment using the front panel controls, a suitable Remote Control Unit (RCU) can be employed. Although the RCU replicates many of the equipments front panel controls and indicators, reference should always be made to the operating instructions supplied with the RCU. FRONT PANEL CONTROLS AND INDICATORS FRONT PANEL LAYOUT For the purposes of describing the controls and indicators, the front panel can be divided into the 3 following five sections (see Figs. 1, 2, and 3). Each section is described in the following paragraphs. Transmitter (Tx) controls and indicators. Receiver (Rx) controls and indicators. Synthesiser controls and indicators. Mainframe controls and indicators. Auxiliary controls and indicators. 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 3 Transmitter (Tx) Controls and Indicators 4 The transmitters controls and indicators (see Fig. 4-1) comprise a SET PWR control, PTT switch and the four monitor switches LINE, FWD, RFL and MOD. It should be noted that only one monitor function can be selected at any one time; to deselect a selected function, press the selected function switch or select the other function or press the RESET switch. SET PWR The maximum output power from the transmitter is 40 W (AM) or 5 60 W (FM). The set power control allows a reduction of output power between 0 and 10 dB.

When the switch is in the other position, the indicator lights when audio is present and the mute circuit is operational. 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 5 Synthesiser Controls and Indicators 19 The synthesiser controls and indicators panel (see Fig. 4-3) comprises:

A frequency and a channel display. A triple function keypad providing primary, secondary and tertiary key functions. The primary function of the keypad is engraved on the key(s) (0-9). The keys allow frequencies and channels to be entered and stored in the equipments memory, and provide for the selection of different display functions. Keys with lettering above them provide a second function and provide the means by which a number of operational functions are carried out. Keys with lettering below them have a third function that is used in sets when option 07 (Have Quick) or option 12 (Quick Fox) is fitted. Three mode selection keys: AM/FM, Narrow-band/Wideband (NB/WB) and Link 11. Fig. 4-3 Synthesiser Controls Section 4 Page 6 3000DV2 Radios FREQUENCY and CHANNEL Displays 20 The synthesiser provides a six-digit frequency display and a two-digit channel display. The displays have four functions:

Monitor Function. The displays show the current operating frequency and channel number. Edit Function. The edit function is indicated by a flashing decimal point at the bottom right-hand end of the frequency display. Edit function shows information being entered from the keypad, not the radios current operating parameters. View Function. View facilities allow channel information to be displayed without affecting the operation of the radio. This can be used, for example, to check the frequencies stored in each of the 99 pre-set channels; during such checks, the radios operating frequency does not change. Error Message Function. Error messages are automatically displayed if invalid keypad entries are made, or when certain fault conditions are detected. Error messages are detailed in Table 4-5 on page 34. Second Function Select Key 21 The second function select key (SHIFT s) is a push-to-select, push again to de-select key, that selects either the primary or second function of the keypad. When second function is selected, the adjacent indicator is lit. When primary function is selected, the adjacent indicator is unlit. Third Function Select Key 22 The third function select key (SHIFT t) is a push-to-select, push again to de-select key, that selects either the primary or third function of the keypad. When third function is selected, the adjacent indicator is lit. When primary function is selected, the adjacent indicator is unlit. Numerical Data Keys 0 through 9 23 Primary function data keys 0 through 9 are used to enter numeric data. Decimal Point Key 24 The primary function decimal point key, adds a point to the right of the last number entered. If this is the first key entry, the display will blank and a 0 (zero) followed by a decimal point will be entered in the first position. Cancel Entry (CE) Key 25 The primary function CE key cancels previous selections as follows:

If the previous selection was a numeric data key, the last digit entered will be replaced by a blank. Further use of the CE key progressively removes remaining digits from the display;

pressing the CE key when only one digit is shown causes the display to go to the monitor mode. If the previous key entry resulted in an error code (refer to Table 4-5), pressing the CE key restores the settings shown before the previous key entry. If the previous entry was as a function key, then the key entry is ignored. 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 7 Frequency (FREQ) Key 26 Pressing this key causes the equipments operating frequency to change to that shown on the frequency display, if the displayed frequency is valid. Pressing this key does not alter any stored channels. Entering a valid frequency results in the frequency being shown in the frequency display, and the channel display being blanked. 27 If the entered frequency falls outside the band edge frequencies an error message (refer to Table 4-5) is displayed and the operational frequency is not changed. The error message is cancelled by pressing the CE key. Channel Store (STORE) Key 28 In edit mode, when a valid channel number is displayed in the frequency display and the store key is pressed, the following settings will be stored with the channel number:

Frequency AM or FM selection Narrow-band or wideband selection Link 11 selection. 29 Entering an invalid channel number will result in an error message. Pressing the CE key will remove the error message. Channel Recall (RCL) Key 30 The channel recall key is used to recall pre-set frequencies and associated settings. Entering a valid channel number, and pressing the recall key, resets the equipments frequency, AM/FM selection, narrow/wideband selection and Link 11 selection. If the recalled channel number contains no previously stored data, the key entry will be ignored. LOCK Key 31 The LOCK key (second function) disables all functions except the Unlock Key, PTT and monitor functions. When lock is selected, the adjacent indicator is lit. UNLOCK Key 32 The unlock key (second function) returns the keypad from the locked condition and enables normal operation. When the unlock condition is selected, the adjacent indicator is lit. LOCAL Key 33 The local key (second function) is not used. VIEW Key 34 Used to verify channel information. When a channel has been selected and the view key

(secondary function) is pressed, all stored information appropriate to the selected channel is displayed without changing the operational parameters of the equipment. The display will show the viewed channel for 5 seconds before returning to the monitor mode. Section 4 Page 8 3000DV2 Radios P1 Key 35 The P1 key (second function) is used to set or view the remote operation baud rate during initial installation (see section 3) or following replacement of the radio. P2 Key (Lamp Test) 36 The P2 key (second function) enables a lamp test to be performed on all LEDs and lamps on the front panel allowing the operator to test for unserviceable LEDs/lamps. The test lasts for 5 seconds, or less if the CE key is pressed. Note that the AC and DC supply lamps are not tested as part of this test. AM/FM Mode Key 37 This primary function key is used to select either AM or FM operating mode. Two indicators are fitted to the right of the key. When AM is selected, the upper indicator will be lit; when FM is selected, the lower indicator will be lit. Note that FM cannot be selected if an 8.33 kHz channel is being used. If it is selected, an error message is displayed (see Table 4-5 on page 34). NB/WB Mode Key 38 The NB/WB (primary function) key is used to select either narrow or wideband mode of operation. Two indicators are fitted to the right of the key. When narrow-band is selected, the upper indicator will be lit; when wideband is selected, the lower indicator will be lit. Note that WB cannot be selected if an 8.33 kHz channel is being used. If it is selected, an error message is displayed (see Table 4-5 on page 34). LK11 Key 39 The Link 11 key (primary function) is used to switch the equipment between normal and Link 11 modes of operation. When Link 11 mode is selected, the upper indicator, to the right of the key, will be lit. When normal mode is selected, the upper indicator will be unlit. 40 When Link 11 is selected, FM, wideband, and short AGC modes of operation are automatically selected. The mode is disabled when the AM/FM or NB/WB key is pressed. Note that Link 11 cannot be selected if an 8.33 kHz channel is being used.

When making key entries, do not pause more than 5 seconds between key strokes or new data will be lost and the system will revert to default settings. 62 Before any setting-up procedures are carried out, users must ensure that the installation instructions, as detailed in Section 3 of this handbook, have been successfully completed. Setting-up the equipment requires the following procedures to be carried out:

Switching on the ac and dc supplies as applicable to the installation. Frequency selection. This procedure is used to select an operating frequency without programming the frequency and an appropriate channel number into the radios memory. Programming channel and frequency information into the radios memory. Channel recall. This procedure recalls a previously stored channel, setting the equipment to operate on the frequency appropriate to that channel number. Channel verification. This procedure allows an operator to check the frequency allocated to any stored channel number. Screen blanking (if this facility is required). System reset and auto-calibrate (if necessary). Guard receiver operation. This procedure is appropriate only to equipment which have the the guard receiver option fitted. The guard receiver provides constant monitoring of international distress frequency. Users should note that there are different procedures for selecting frequencies and channel information when using 25 kHz channel spacing, and 8.33 kHz channel spacing. SWITCHING ON 63 The equipment can be operated from an ac or a dc supply. If both ac and dc supplies are connected, the equipment will normally operate from the ac supply; if the ac supply fails, operation will automatically transfer (without interruption) to the dc supply. When the ac supply is restored, the equipment reverts to ac operation. Switching on is carried out as follows:

(a) At the equipments front panel, ensure the AC and DC SUPPLY switches are in the off position (down).

(b) Apply ac, and/or, dc supplies to the equipment.

(c)

(d) If an ac supply is connected to the equipment, set the AC SUPPLY to the on position (up). Check that the AC indicator is lit. If a dc supply is connected to the equipment, set the DC SUPPLY switch to the on position

(up). Check that the DC indicator is lit.

(e) Once power is established the radio then carries out a power-on self-test (see paragraph 111 on page 30). 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 13 FREQUENCY SELECTION This procedure should be used when 25 kHz channel spacing is required.

Before further use, and following this command, an auto-calibrate procedure must be carried out (see paragraph 77). 76 The system reset key sequence 91, (SHIFT s), RESET resets the radio and returns it to a known state. After a system reset (plus auto-calibrate) frequency and channel settings must be re-entered. AUTO-CALIBRATE 77 The auto-calibrate routine recalibrates the synthesiser lock times, and needs to be initiated after a system reset. (A system reset clears the equipment of all stored data). To initiate the auto-calibrate routine, use the following procedure:

(a) Ensure the step auto-calibrate size is 25 kHz (0.025 MHz). The key sequence is 0.0 2 5, (SHIFT s), FREQ

(b) Initiate auto-calibrate. The key sequence for this is: 91, AUX C

(c)

(d) Set the radio to the lowest available frequency, 100 MHz (VHF or VHF/UHF radio) or 225 MHz (UHF only radio). The equipment will then go through the calibration routine which takes approximately 10 minutes. During this time, the frequency display shows Calib, the channel display shows ON and the monitor display increments from 1 to 100 to give a progress indication.

(e) When the equipment has stepped through all UHF and VHF channel frequencies (all channels have been calibrated when the frequency display returns to the original frequency display), stop the routine by switching off the radio. Auto-calibration can be stopped by entering 91, AUX C.

(f) Re-enter any required channel frequencies. The radio is now ready for operational use. GUARD RECEIVER OPERATION 78 The GUARD mode function is only available when the guard receiver option is fitted. Selection of the guard receiver is achieved by selecting the guard ON key to the on position (shown by the adjacent indicator being lit). 79 The guard receiver will continuously monitor the international VHF distress frequency of 121.5 MHz when the main receiver is set to a VHF frequency or the UHF distress frequency of 243 MHz when the main receiver is set to a UHF frequency. When a signal is detected on the guard frequency the indicator adjacent to the guard MUTE key will light and the audio will be heard in the loudspeaker, headset, or through the guard receivers audio output that is available on the facilities 2 connector. 80 When a distress broadcast is received through the guard receiver, the operator can select the distress frequency as the equipments operating frequency by using the channel recall procedure, or the frequency selection procedure. Section 4 Page 20 3000DV2 Radios OPTIONS, SOFTWARE VERSIONS, AND RADIO TYPE MENUS 81 There are three menus (options, software versions and radio type) available via the front panel. Options (in the options menu) can be viewed and changed, the other two menus are read only. The key sequences needed to view each particular type are shown in Table 4-2.

Option 04, Fill Gun Port (can be activated only when a fill gun connector is fitted to the radios front panel). Option 06, Interface for an external power amplifier or external auto-tune filter. Option 07, Have Quick operation (can be activated only when a Have Quick module is fitted in the radio). Option 08, VHF frequency extension that increases the VHF band from 100 to 163 MHz. Option 10, Maritime band working. When Option 10 is selected the VHF frequency band is extended to 163 MHz only for designated marine channels. If the radio is required to operate on maritime channels, and non-maritime channels above 155.975 MHz, both Option 08 and Option 10 must be selected. Option 12, Quick Fox working. This should only be selected on radios modified for, and fitted with a Quick Fox module. Note that the radios front panel has modified key names. AttEnU. Must be activated if an external attenuator is being used with the radio. 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 21 Note ...

If using this RECEIVE OPERATION (FOR RECEIVERS AND TRANSCEIVERS ONLY) 97 On the synthesiser front panel (see Fig. 4-3), select the required operational frequency either by recalling a pre-set channel or by using the numeric keypad (as detailed in previous paragraphs). 98 Verify that the displayed frequency is correct. Reception will now take place with the audio being available at the MIC/HEADSET socket and the internal loudspeaker (when set to the on position). All audio outputs can be controlled using the VOL control. 99 A data (wideband) output is also available at the rear panel FACILITIES 2 connector. The level of this output is pre-set. 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 25 MARITIME BAND - ADDITIONAL OPERATING INFORMATION GENERAL 100 Radios incorporating the maritime band option (Option 10) are user selectable between the following operational modes:

Normal (non-maritime band operation) Ship (maritime band operation) Shore (maritime band operation). NORMAL MODE 101 The normal (or non-maritime mode) will perform identically to a radio without maritime capability. The only exception is an additional key sequence that is required to switch into one or other of the maritime modes (see paragraph 109). SHIP/SHORE MODES 102 In maritime mode, the channels 1 to 28, 60 to 74 and 77 to 88 (see Table 4-4) are overlaid with international maritime VHF frequencies. These particular channels cannot be altered by the operator although the remaining channels still have this capability. 103 As the actual frequency of transmission and reception are pre-set for maritime channels, the 6-digit display will either indicate SH IP. or ShorE.. The display will also include one of the following suffix characters:

I - denotes International selection (i.e. SH IP.I or ShorE.I) A - denotes American selection (i.e. SH IP.A or ShorE. A) 104 The format in use may be toggled by a key sequence (see paragraph 109). Ship/Shore View Modes 105 In the ship/shore view modes the current operating frequency is displayed at all times. During reception, the receive frequency is displayed. the display will then indicate the transmit frequency during subsequent transmissions (this allows test engineers to check that the radios are transmitting and receiving on the correct frequency). Section 4 Page 26 3000DV2 Radios Channel Change 106 Changing maritime channels follows the same format as with normal channel changes. As digits are entered, they are displayed on the frequency display. Once a valid selection has been made, the new channel is selected. If this is within the maritime range, the display will return to maritime mode, i.e. displaying SH IP.A (SH IP.I) or ShorE.A (ShorE.I) unless in view mode. Frequency Change 107 Maritime frequencies cannot be changed as they are internationally set. If a frequency is entered, the frequency display will show Error and the channel display will show the error number 10. Note ... The channels not covered by the maritime standards may be re-programmed as normal. These channels are duplicates of those in non-maritime mode and as such, any changes made will remain when maritime mode is de-selected. External RF Filter 108 The external RF filters normally used with 3000DV2 series equipment require a few seconds to retune to a new frequency and cannot be used for filtering both transmission and reception signals on a Two Frequency Simplex channel. If a filter is fitted when one of these channels is recalled, an error message will be displayed (see Table 4-5). 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 27 KEY SEQUENCES 109 The following describes the additional key sequences required to access the maritime functions:

The BIT functions in three different ways:

Power-On Self-Test (POST) Continuously monitored functions Interruptive self-test routines. POWER-ON SELF-TEST 111 A power-on self-test (POST) is performed to check the basic functionality of the radio. 112 If no problems are revealed PASS is shown in the monitor display; see following example:

FREQUENCY CHANNEL MONITOR 2 2 5 . 0 0 0 0 1 PASS 113 If a problem exists with the synthesiser, the frequency window shows the following message (this message indicates the set is inoperative and cannot be used):

FREQUENCY CHANNEL MONITOR n O S y n 3 POSt 114 Any other post-initialisation problems are indicated by having the BIT display window show POSt as shown in the following example:

FREQUENCY CHANNEL MONITOR 3 0 5 . 0 0 0 0 1 POSt Section 4 Page 30 3000DV2 Radios 115 On error the MEM key can be used to view each problem in turn, so that each POST problem can be noted. For example, if the internal Have Quick module (anti-jam) option is enabled and the Have Quick module has failed, the MEM key should be pressed a number of times and the following display will be shown:

FREQUENCY CHANNEL MONITOR n O AJ 7 POSt 116 Pressing the MEM key a number of times will cause each POST problem in turn to be shown, returning to the original display when all POST codes have been shown. The post-initialisation test can only be cleared by switching the set off, fixing the problem concerned and switching the set back on again. Analysing faults is outside the scope of this handbook. Reference should be made to the appropriate technical handbook for further information. CONTINUOUSLY MONITORED FUNCTIONS 117 The BIT automatically performs test routines that monitor the equipments test point voltages at least once every two seconds. If a test point voltage is found to be outside the pre-set limit, the module and test point numbers are stored in the fault memory. The error message bit will be shown on the monitor display. If the fault is only temporary, the bit error message will disappear. 118 If the fault is caused by an external influence and the set is still operating correctly at reduced power, one of the following messages will be displayed:

If a high temperature within the equipment is sensed, the error message C will be shown on the monitor display. If the fault is caused by a high VSWR at the VHF antenna connection, ANT 1 will be shown on the monitor display. If the fault is caused by a high VSWR at the UHF antenna connection, ANT 2 will be shown on the monitor display. If the fault is caused by a low supply voltage AC or DC (as selected), PS will be shown in the monitor display. If the fault is with an external power amplifier, 3640, Ebit will be shown in the monitor display. Under this condition the set will be operating correctly at full power, however the 3640 will be in bypass condition (non-amplifying). When the 3640 fault is cleared, the following key sequence must be entered at the radio to clear the bypass condition and restore normal working:

SHIFTs, RESET 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 31 INTERRUPTIVE SELF-TEST ROUTINE 119 This test is initiated by pressing the TEST key. During the self-test routine, normal operation of the equipment is suspended, and the TEST indicator is on. 120 At the start of the test, the fault memory is cleared and the MEM indicator is turned off. If a fault is found, the module and test point number is stored in the fault memory, and the MEM indicator turned on. The test routine then proceeds to the next module. 121 On completion, one of the following status messages is shown on the MONITOR display:

PASS - indicating system is fully operational. bit - indicating one or more out of limit conditions exist. tCAr - indicating the interruptive test has been aborted. The transmitters carrier output power is below specification, i.e. less than 4 watts (not applicable to receivers). tAUd - indicating the interruptive test has been aborted. The transmitters depth of modulation is below specification, i.e., less than 50% (not applicable to receivers). rSEn - indicating the interruptive test has been aborted. The receivers sensitivity is below specification (not applicable to transmitters). rAUd - indicating the interruptive test has been aborted. The receivers audio is below specification (not applicable to transmitters). ANT 1 - indicating high VSWR present at the VHF antenna connection. ANT 2 - indicating high VSWR present at the UHF antenna connection. C - indicating equipment above normal operating temperature. PS - indicating low supply voltage AC or DC as selected. EbIt - indicating an external error has occurred. When an external power amplifier type 3640 is connected to the radio and this message is received, the 3640 is switched to the bypass condition (non-amplifying). When the fault is cleared in the 3640, the following key sequence must be entered at the radio to clear the 3640 bypass condition and restore normal working of the 3640:

Note ... SHIFT s, RESET During antenna testing it is not possible for the equipment to indicate a fault on both VHF and UHF antenna systems simultaneously. Should this situation occur, the first detected fault will be displayed on the monitor. It is therefore advisable to check both antenna systems independently in the event of a failure indication. Section 4 Page 32 3000DV2 Radios FAULT MEMORY 122 The fault memory contains one location for each module. The contents of the memory can be viewed by pressing the memory (MEM) key. Successive MEM key presses display any other stored faults in rotation. 123 Internal faults are displayed on the monitor display as module number and test point number. External faults are displayed as ANT 1, ANT 2, C, PS, and EbIt indicating VHF transmitter VSWR, UHF transmitter VSWR, temperature, supply voltage, and an external equipment fault respectively. 124 The fault memory is cleared by pressing SHIFT s, RESET. 3000DV2 Radios Section 4 Page 33 Table 4-5 Error Message Codes Code Meaning Action 01 02 03 04

(a) Ensure that the equipment has been isolated from the input ac and dc supplies.

(b) At the rear of the unit, locate and remove the two screws that secure the fan filter housing to the rear panel (see Fig. 4).

(c) Remove the filter housing, fan EMC screen and filters. Clean the filters either by using a low pressure air supply or washing in warm water and leaving to dry. If necessary replace with a new filter (PAE Part No. 51-00507867).

(d) Refit the filters, fan EMC screen and filter housing. LAMP TEST 126 The lamp test allows all the front panel LEDs and lamps to be illuminated simultaneously allowing the operator to check for unserviceable lamps/LEDs. To carry out the test, press the SHIFT(s) followed by the 0 (zero) key. The test is cancelled by pressing the CE key. Note that this test does not check the AC and DC supply lamps. FREQUENCY ACCURACY CHECK 127 The ac accuracy of the transceivers and transmitters's frequency can be checked if a suitable frequency counter and 30 dB attenuator are available. It is recommended the frequency check be completed every six months as follows:

(a) Connect a digital frequency counter, through a 30 dB attenuator, to the VHF (or UHF) antenna connector.

(b) At the front panel, select a frequency of 155 MHz (VHF transmitter) or 399 MHz (UHF transmitter and VHF/UHF transceiver) and key the transmitter. Check that the frequency indicated on the frequency counter is between 154.999 and 155.001 MHz (VHF) or 398.999 and 399.001 MHz (UHF).

(c) If the specification in step (b) is not met, reference should be made to PAE.

They are designed for military, civil aeronautical and maritime communication applications. The series comprises the following models:

VHF/UHF UHF VHF TRANSCEIVERS 3060V2 3040V2 3070V2 TRANSMITTERS 3160V2 3140V2 3170V2 RECEIVERS 3260V2 3240V2 3270V2 The 3000DV2 series is designed to meet military transportable environmental requirements including temperature, vibration, shock, sand/dust and EMC. Equipment construction is both rugged and highly modular. Either fixed site 19 rack mounting or vehicular shock mounting arrangements may be used. The 3000DV2 supports multimode operational requirements including AM/FM narrowband voice and wideband data, 8.33 kHz channel spacing to ICAO requirements and simplex marine band channels with pre-set ship/shore modes. ECCM includes embedded Have Quick II or Quick Fox capability and compatibility with Link 11 and 16 kb crypto systems. Full function control can be local, using the front panel keypad and associated LED display, or remote via PAE series 3000V2 or MARC systems. A high performance synthesiser is employed to provide frequency control. The synthesiser has an exceptionally low broadband noise floor that enables maximum benefit to be obtained from both the inherent dynamic range of the receiver and the low noise design of the transmitter power amplifiers. These features give the 3000DV2 series unrivalled performance in co-located installations. Antenna port configuration is highly flexible and any combination of Tx/Rx/VHF/UHF can be accommodated including a single combined VHF/UHF connection. This flexibility enables simple configuration for use with separate auto-tune filters and power amplifiers (PAE 3640) where overall system requirements dictate their use. In standard form, individual antenna connections are provided for VHF and UHF operation. These can also have common interconnection to the optional guard receiver. The BIT provides comprehensive monitoring of the equipment. Each module has a series of addressable test points that are monitored and compared with specification limits stored in memory. Any errors detected are displayed on a multifunction front panel LED that indicates module and test point location. In addition to continuous monitoring, a full performance test can be initiated. The radios have full remote control capability via a serial port that can be configured for dc (RS422) operation or for tone (CCITT V23) via a built-in modem. The protocol is compatible with PAE 3000V2HQ or MARC control systems. Output facilities include an interface to auto-tune filters, and connections for secure speech and data modems. A variant of the radio is available for Quick Fox operation. P A R K A I R E L E C T R O N I C S
