SECTION 6 - SYSTEM CHECKOUT
1. General
This section contains a system checkout procedure to verify the operation of the C-5000 and
transceiver installation. The following procedures are intended to provide sufficient exercising of the
system configuration to assure that system parameter selection/control and TX/RX functions are
operating properly.
A. Terms, Definitions and Limitations
If there is only one transceiver connected to the C-5000, ignore instructions in this checkout
procedure that apply to transceiver #2 or transceiver #3.
While the C-5000 is actually just the control head for multiple transceivers, this checkout
procedure often refers to the FLEXCOMM II system and includes all transceivers and ancillary
equipment.
The terms "C-5000" and "Control Head" are used interchangeably within this document.
The terms "transceiver", "radio", and "RT" are used interchangeably within this document.
"Main" receiver or transmitter refers to the part of the RT-5000 transceiver that can communicate
over the complete bandwidth of the radio. Every Wulfsberg transceiver has a "Main"
receiver/transmitter.
"Guard Receiver" refers to the single channel receiver or multi-band (29.7 to 960 MHz, RT-5000
only) receiver that may be included along with the Main transceiver. This receiver is co-located
inside the radio.
2. System Checkout
A. General
It is absolutely essential that the installer read and understand the operation and
programming capabilities of the C-5000 as documented in the C-5000 Operator’s
manual 150-1352-000 before attempting to test the installation.
The C-5000 can control up to two radio systems composed of various Wulfsberg radios. It is the
responsibility of the installer to understand the capabilities of the individual transceivers and
associated antenna systems. The C-5000 must be programmed with configuration information
BEFORE it will properly communicate
