APPENDIX D - ALIGNMENT TOOL
INTRODUCTION
Purpose of this Section
This section will help with the installation of the SRP8000 Series Alignment Tool. It lists the
equipment required and how to set-up the PC to get optimum performance from the Alignment Tool. It also
describes how to get started in connecting and aligning a radio.
Purpose of Alignment Tool
The Simoco SRP8000 Series Alignment Tool is used to align the RF circuitry within a SRP8000
Series radio. It may also be used to modify a radio’s hardware code (in the event that the radio’s hardware
has been upgraded).
The Alignment Tool cannot be used for the alignment of radios other than SRP8000 Series radios.
Components Associated with Alignment Tool
To use the alignment tool, a programming lead (0000 321 60001) and a radio test interface unit
(0000 693 20001) are required.
In addition, the Alignment Tool operations require various items of test equipment; these are listed
on page 4.6 Test Equipment in this Service Manual.
Alignment Tool Requirements
To install and use the Alignment Tool it is necessary to have compatible hardware and software.
Hardware Requirement
The computer that the Alignment Tool is to be installed on, must meet certain requirement criteria.
These criteria are classified as follows:
✔
Compulsory requirement; must have this to install and use Alignment Tool.
≥
Recommended minimum requirement; this is the minimum specification to achieve
‘useable’ performance and may be upgraded to achieve better performance.
≈
Optional requirement; provides defined options in using the Alignment Tool.
Table D.16 Hardware Requirements
Note: Whilst the criteria in Table D.1 are a useful guide, it is recommended that the Alignment
Tool should be installed on the highest specification PC available, for optimum
performance.
