Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 General This manual includes all the information needed to maintain peak product performance and maximum working time for the ASTRO XTS 5000 radio. This detailed level of service (component level) is typical of the service performed by some service centers, self-maintained customers, and distributors.
1-2 1.2 Introduction: Notations Used in This Manual Notations Used in This Manual Throughout the text in this publication, you will notice the use of warnings, cautions, and notes. These notations are used to emphasize that safety hazards exist, and care must be taken and observed. NOTE: An operational procedure, practice, or condition that is essential to emphasize. ! CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, might result in equipment damage.
Chapter 2 Radio Power This chapter provides a detailed circuit description of the power distribution of an ASTRO XTS 5000 radio. 2.1 General In the ASTRO XTS 5000 radio, power (B+) is distributed to two boards: the transceiver (RF) board and the VOCON board (see Figure 2-1 on page 2-2 for UHF Range 1 (R1) and 700–800 MHz, and Figure 2-2 on page 2-2 for VHF). In the case of a secure model radio, B+ is also supplied to the encryption module.
2-2 Radio Power: General Battery RF Board J1 BATT FB+ P1 P201 Fuse RAW B+ UNSW_B+ FET V5A SW_B+ GCAP II 1.875 Volts (VSW2) 1.55V 3VA 3 Volts Analog Circuits 5 Volts VCC5 3.8 V (VSW1) 5 Volts SW_B+ (control signal) 7.5 Volts (Nominal) VOCON Board 3 Volts Digital Circuits 3 Volts 3 Volts (VREF) (V2) 1.55 Volts (VSW_1.55) MAEPF-27419-A Figure 2-1.
Radio Power: DC Power Routing—Transceiver Board 2.2 2-3 DC Power Routing—Transceiver Board NOTE: Refer to Table 8-1, “List of Transceiver Schematics and Board Overlays,” on page 8-1 for a listing of schematics showing the transceiver board DC power routing components. Connector J1, the B-plus assembly, connects the battery to the transceiver board. Capacitors C1, C2, and C3 provide protection against momentary breaks at the B-plus connector due to contact bounce when the radio is dropped.
2-4 Radio Power: DC Power Routing—VOCON Board Transistor Q501 is also under the control of the microcontroller unit (MCU) via Vref from U501. This allows the MCU to follow an orderly power-down sequence when it senses that B+SENSE is off. This sense is provided through MECH_SW_BAR (inverted B+SENSE, see Q508). The digital circuits in the VOCON board are powered from regulators located in the GCAP II IC (U501), an external 5 Vdc regulator (VCC5, U505), and an external 1.55 Vdc regulator (VSW_1.
Chapter 4 Troubleshooting Procedures The purpose of this chapter is to aid in troubleshooting problems with the ASTRO XTS 5000 radio. It is intended to be detailed enough to localize the malfunctioning circuit and isolate the defective component. It also contains a listing of service tools recommended for PC board repair at the component level. ! Caution 4.1 Most of the ICs are static sensitive devices.
4-2 4.2 Troubleshooting Procedures: Recommended Service Tools Recommended Service Tools Table 4-1 lists recommended service tools that can be used for PC board repairs at the component level. For listings of additonal service tools, service aids, and test equipment that are recommended for all levels of service, refer to the XTS 5000 basic service manual (see “ Related Publications” on page xii). Table 4-1.
Troubleshooting Procedures: Voltage Measurement and Signal Tracing 4-3 Table 4-1.
4-4 4.4 Troubleshooting Procedures: Standard Bias Table Standard Bias Table Table 4-2 outlines some standard supply voltages and system clocks which should be present under normal operation. These should be checked as a first step to any troubleshooting procedure. Table 4-2. Standard Operating Bias Signal Name Nominal Value Tolerance VOCON Board Source 13 MHz ±1000 ppm C303 (NTN9564) C339 (NNTN4563, NNTN4819 & NNTN4717) FLIP_32K 32.
Troubleshooting Procedures: Power-Up Self-Check Errors 4.5 4-5 Power-Up Self-Check Errors Each time the radio is turned on, the MCU and DSP perform a series of internal diagnostics. These diagnostics consist of checking such programmable devices as the FLASH ROMs, the EEPROM, and SRAM devices. Problems detected during the power-up self-check routines are presented as error codes on the radio’s display. For non-display radios, the problem is presented at power up by a single, lowfrequency tone.
4-6 4.6 Troubleshooting Procedures: Power-Up Self-Check Diagnostics and Repair (Not for Field Use) Power-Up Self-Check Diagnostics and Repair (Not for Field Use) Table 4-4 lists additional action items that can be used for the diagnosis and resolution of the error codes listed in Table 4-3 on page 4-5. Table 4-4. Power-Up Self-Check Diagnostic Actions Error Code Diagnostic Actions 01/02 This non-fatal error will likely recover if the radio’s power is cycled.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting Charts This section contains detailed troubleshooting flowcharts. These charts should be used as a guide in determining the problem areas. They are not a substitute for knowledge of circuit operation and astute troubleshooting techniques. It is advisable to refer to the related detailed circuit descriptions in the theory of operation sections prior to troubleshooting a radio. 5.
