2. Inject a 1 kHz signal at the level indicated on the
screen into the Mic Audio jack of the RPI (see
Section 5.4.1).
3. Monitor the transmit modulation signal with a
communication monitor and adjust the wideband
and narrow band deviation at all data points for the
levels indicated on the screen.
5.11 RECEIVE BANDPASS FILTER ADJUST
1. If manually selecting each test, click the “Rx Band-
pass Filter” button in the screen shown in
Figure 5-2. Otherwise, this function is selected auto-
matically after completing the preceding Audio
Deviation adjustment.
2. Set the signal generator to the indicated frequency
with an unmodulated output at a level of –95 dBm.
3. Click the Fast Up and Fast Down buttons to deter-
mine the peak reading. If there are several peaks, use
the center value.
4. Adjust the D/A Setting at all data points for half the
highest real time RSSI level that was observed.
5.12 RSSI AND SQUELCH ADJUST
The first part of this adjustment electronically
sets the RSSI, and the second part is used to manually
set the squelch threshold. Proceed as follows:
1. If manually selecting each test, click the “RSSI and
Squelch” button in the screen shown in Figure 5-2.
Otherwise, this function is selected automatically
after completing the preceding Rx Bandpass Filter
adjustment.
2. Connect a SINAD meter to the speaker output jack
of the RPI (see Section 5.4.1) and inject the channel
frequency and signal level indicated on the screen.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to sample the
RSSI level at several data points.
4. When all the data points have been set, click the Exit
button. The squelch adjust screen is then displayed.
If the squelch sensitivity must be adjusted, the trans-
ceiver must be opened as described in the next
section to access the adjustment point.
5. Set the signal generator for the output signal
displayed on the screen and slowly adjust squelch
potentiometer VR401 (see Figure 5-3) until the
receiver just squelches (audio mutes).
5.13 OPENING TRANSCEIVER
NOTE: The following procedure needs to be
performed only if the frequency and squelch sensitivity
described in Sections 5.5 and 5.12 need to be adjusted.
1. If applicable, remove the programming cable from
to the accessory connector. Then open the trans-
ceiver as described in Section 1.11.
2. Connect the optional extension test cable (see Table
1-1) between the jacks on the keypad/display and
audio/logic boards. This cable is required for the
transceiver to operate.
3. Reattach the battery pack to provide power to the
transceiver.
4. Temporarily reattach the programming cable to the
accessory connector (a rubber band can be used to
hold it in place). Perform the frequency and squelch
adjustments as described in the preceding sections.
