Chapter 4 Recommended Test Equipment and Service 

Aids

This chapter provides lists of recommended test equipment and service aids, as well as information 
on field programming equipment that can be used in servicing and programming ASTRO 
APX 1000 radios.

4.1

Recommended Test Equipment

The list of equipment contained in 

Table 4-1

 includes all of the standard test equipment required for 

servicing two-way portable radios, as well as several unique items designed specifically for servicing 
this family of radios. The “Characteristics” column is included so that equivalent equipment may be 
substituted; however, when no information is provided in this column, the specific Motorola model 
listed is either a unique item or no substitution is recommended.
