Introduction
This section gives the scheduled and unscheduled maintenance procedures for the T6TR transceiver
and shows how to use the Virtual Front Panel (VFP).
Configuration
T6 radios are configured in respect of hardware and software.
Hardware Configuration
The radio’s hardware configuration is identified by the
modification level. A modification label is fitted to the radio’s
rear panel showing the model of radio, the radio’s part number
and the radio’s serial number.
The modification (Mod) record shows the configuration status.
In the example shown, the radio is at Mod strike 8.
Modification Label
Software Configuration
A white label fitted to the top
cover lists the radio’s software
configuration.
In this example there are three
fills: AM-Voice, Mode 2 and
Mode 3.
Software Configuration Label
Replacement Modules
To ensure compatibility when replacing a radio or a module, the configuration should be the same (see
the previous headings: Hardware and Software Configuration).
Spare modules received from Park Air are supplied with a Spares Instruction that details the
configuration of the module and any special instructions. If in any doubt regarding the suitability of spare
modules contact
Park Air Customer Support .
Scheduled Maintenance A scheduled maintenance procedure is given on page 3 . Park Air
recommends that this task be completed every twelve months.
Unscheduled Maintenance Normally, the transceiver is considered a Line Replaceable Unit
(LRU) and should be replaced with a serviceable spare if a fault
occurs. The faulty transceiver should then be returned to Park Air
for repair.
In certain circumstances, Park Air Customer Support may suggest
that the user change one of the transceiver modules. Dismantling
and assembly instructions are therefore given under the heading
Unscheduled Maintenance starting on
page 7 .
Using the VFP Operating parameters can be set from the transceiver front panel,
or by using the VFP. Some additional functions are available from
the VFP. See
page 22 .
