SECTION 1 GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 SCOPE OF MANUAL
This service manual contains operation, programming, alignment, and service information for the
EFJohnson 5100-Series portable digital transceivers.
1.2 TRANSCEIVER DESCRIPTION
1.2.1 GENERAL
The 5100-series portable digital transceivers have
multiple system programming capability to allow
operation in various types of radio systems as
described in the information which follows.
Models are available for operation in the
following frequency ranges. Repeater talk-around,
which allows transmitting on the receive frequency, is
also available with all bands.
used in systems where the channel spacing is 25 kHz
or 30 kHz.
Project 25 Digital
systems. The voice is digitized, error corrected,
optionally encrypted, and then transmitted using
C4FM modulation according to the Project 25 standard. This mode uses a channel spacing of 12.5 kHz.
1.2.3 OPERATING PROTOCOLS
Standard 5100-series transceivers can be
programmed for any or all the following operating
protocols. The conventional analog protocol is standard and the others are optional and therefore are
available only if enabled by factory programming.
Refer to Section 3 for more operation information.
- Operates on Project 25 compatible
• Conventional analog
• Conventional Project 25 (digital)
• SMARTNET
™
/SmartZone® analog or digital
• Trunked Project 25 (digital)
VHF: 136-174 MHz
Power output is user switchable for low and high
levels as follows:
VHF - 1 and 5 watts
1.2.2 ANALOG/DIGITAL OPERATION
The 5100-series transceiver uses a digital signal
processor (DSP) to provide IF and audio filtering and
modulation functions. This allows operation on the
various types of channels (see following), backward
compatibility with existing equipment, and the ability
to operate on various types of radio systems.
Narrow Band Analog
maximum deviation of 2.5 kHz. This mode is usually
used in systems with a channel spacing of 12.5 or 15
kHz.
Wideband Analog
maximum deviation of 5 kHz. This mode is usually

- FM modulation is used with a
NOTE: Some of the above protocols are not available
with early units.
Multi-Net
future release. These versions will be programmable
for Multi-Net and conventional analog operation.
However, future migration to any of the other protocols listed above will be possible by reflashing the
operating software. This manual does not include
Multi-Net operation information.
1.2.4 FULL AND LIMITED KEYPAD MODELS
Both DTMF (18-key) and limited (6-key) models
are available. The DTMF keypad version includes the
0-9, *, and # keys for making telephone calls, entering
unit or group ID numbers, and keypad programming.
Both models have programmable F1-F4 option
keys and the Up/Down switch on the front panel. In
addition, both models have a push-button and a rotary
switch on the top panel and three push-buttons on the
side panel that are programmable. A menu mode can
also be programmed with both models to select functions that are selectable by the option buttons. Refer to

GENERAL INFORMATION
Section 3 for more information on transceiver
operation.
1.2.5 SYSTEMS, CHANNELS, AND ZONES
A zone and channel are selected to place and
receive calls. The following describes the relationship
between systems, channels, and zones.
Systems
A system is a collection of channels or talk
groups belonging to the same repeater site. It defines
all the parameters and protocol information required to
access a site. Up to 16 systems of any type can be
programmed. The maximum number of channels
assignable to a system is limited to approximately 256
with standard models or approximately 500 with the
512-channel option (or the available memory space as
described in the following information).
Channels
A channel selects a radio (RF) channel or talk
group as follows:
SMARTNET system than a conventional system, the
total number of channels decreases as the number of
SMARTNET systems increases. The programming
software displays a bar graph which shows the amount
of available memory space that is used by the current
data. Refer to Section 4 for more information.
Zones
A zone is a collection of up to 16 channels of any
type. For example, a zone could include 12 conventional channels and 4 SMARTNET channels. One use
of zones may be to program the channels used for
operation in a different geographical areas. Up to 16
zones can be programmed with standard models and
up to 32 can be programmed if the 512-channel option
is enabled.
1.2.6 SECURE COMMUNICATION
SecureNet™ voice encryption is used to provide
secure communication with this transceiver. SecureNet
is a proprietary Motorola protocol that digitizes the
voice and then encrypts it using a DES algorithm. The
following types of SecureNet encryption are available:
Conventional Analog Mode - A channel selects a
specific radio channel, Call Guard (CTCSS/DCS)
squelch coding, and other parameters unique to that
channel.
Conventi onal Project 25 Mode - A channel selects a
specific radio channel, NAC squelch coding, talk
group ID, and other parameters unique to that channel.
Trunked Project 25 Mode - A channel selects a
specific talk group ID and other parameters unique to
that talk group.
SMARTNET/SmartZone and Project 25 Trunked
Operation - A channel selects a specific talk group,
announcement group, emergency group, and other
parameters unique to that talk group.
As described in the preceding “Systems” description, a maximum of up to 256 or approximately 500
channels can be programmed. Although it is theoretically possible to program any combination of systems
that produces up to 500 total channels, the maximum
number is also limited by the available memory. For
example, since more memory is required to program a

1.2.7 PROGRAMMING
Transceiver programming is performed using a
PC-compatible computer, the EFJohnson 5100
Programming Cable, and PCConfigure programming
software (see Table 1-1). Programming is described in
Section 4.
1.2.8 ALIGNMENT
Transceiver alignment is performed using
EFJohnson PCTune software and 5100 test box, and
the same computer used for programming (see
preceding section). All adjustments are made electron-
