Failure to follow these safety precautions and instructions could result in serious injury or property
damage.
The installation process requires preparation and knowledge of the site before installation begins.
Review installation procedures and precautions in the Motorola Solutions R56 manual before
performing any site or component installation. Personnel must use safe work practices and good
judgment, and always follow applicable safety procedures, such as requirements of the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the National Electrical Code (NEC), and local codes.
The following are additional general safety precautions that must be observed:
• To continue compliance with any applicable regulations and maintain the safety of this equipment,
do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modifications.
• All equipment must be serviced by Motorola Solutions trained personnel.
• If troubleshooting the equipment while the power is on, be aware of live circuits which could contain
hazardous voltage.

Solutions R56 manual. Do not connect Tx and Rx RF cables directly to an outside antenna.
Compliance with National and International standards and guidelines for human exposure to
Electromagnetic Energy (EME) at Transmitter Antenna sites generally requires that persons having
access to a site shall be aware of the potential for exposure to EME and can exercise control of
exposure by appropriate means, such as adhering to warning sign instructions. See this installation
manual and Appendix A of Motorola Solutions R56.
This product complies with the requirements set forth by the European R&TTE regulations and
applicable CENELEC standards concerning human exposure to Electromagnetic Energy (EME) at
Transmitter Antenna sites. Appendix E: MOTOTRBO Repeater EME Assessment on page 99
this manual includes an EME exposure analysis of a typical system configuration for this product.
For a different system configuration than the typical configuration, compliance with applicable EME
exposure standards (current versions of the EN50384, EN50385, IEC/IEEE 62704-2, and United
States Federal Communication Commission, “Evaluating compliance with FCC guidelines for
human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields,” OET Bulletin 65 (Ed. 97-01), August
1997. Supplement C (Edition 01-01) to US FCC OET Bulletin 65 (Edition 97-01), “Additional
Information for Evaluating Compliance of Mobile and Portable Devices with FCC Limits for Human
Exposure to Radio frequency Emissions,” June 2001 standards for occupational and general public
exposure, respectively) can be evaluated by either employing the indoor or outdoor methods
illustrated in the typical system configuration EME exposure analysis included in Appendix E:
MOTOTRBO Repeater EME Assessment on page 99 in this manual, or employing another
suitable method among those described in the current version of the EN50383 standard.
Once the occupational and general public compliance boundaries are determined, means to ensure
that workers and people are outside the respective boundaries, for instance using appropriate
signage or restricted access, should be implemented; if this is not possible or practically achievable
for the specific system configuration, the configuration should be modified in order to make it
possible. The R56 Standards and Guidelines for Communications Sites manual (which can be
obtained by ordering CDROM 9880384V83) provides examples of signage that can be used to
identify the occupational or general public compliance boundaries.
Refer to product specific manuals for detailed safety and installation instructions. Manuals can be
obtained with product orders, downloaded from https://businessonline.motorolasolutions.com, or
purchased through the Motorola Solutions Aftermarket & Accessory Department.
This is a class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference in
which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

Description
The Motorola SLR 1000 Repeater provides a modular, flexible analog and digital station designed for
today's communication systems and for the future.
The station is available for use in these configurations:
Analog Conventional
•
• Digital (MOTOTRBO)
• MOTOTRBO DMR Tier 2 Conventional – Single Site
• MOTOTRBO DMR Tier 2 Conventional – IP Site Connect
• MOTOTRBO Capacity Plus Trunking
• MOTOTRBO Connect Plus Trunking
• MOTOTRBO Capacity Max Trunking
• MOTOTRBO Digital Voting
NOTICE: Certain software features enabled through Radio Management can be configured with
the Online Help or with a regional representative. See the regional Ordering Guide to determine
the features available within the respective regions.
The repeater can either be configured as a stand-alone repeater or as a repeater connected to a
network, as in the case of operating in IP Site Connect mode. As a repeater, it listens on one uplink
frequency, and then re-transmits on a downlink frequency, thus providing the RF interface to the field
subscribers. When configured for analog station operation, the repeater is designed to operate with
most existing analog systems, which enables a smooth migration to the MOTOTRBO system.
When configured for digital operation, the repeater offers additional services. The digital repeater
operates in TDMA mode, which essentially divides one channel into two virtual channels using time
slots; therefore the user capacity is doubled. The repeater utilizes embedded signaling to inform the
field radios of the busy/idle status of each channel (time slot), the type of traffic, and even the source
and destination information.

1: SLR 1000 Repeater
Theory of Operation
The SLR 1000 Repeater provides the radio frequency (RF) link between the repeater and the
subscriber radios. The repeater acquires inbound signals through its external receive (Rx) antenna and
then amplifies, filters and demodulates the signals into data or voice packets. From that point, the data
is either forwarded to the repeater’s transmitter to subscriber radios, and/or the data is delivered
through a wired interface for distribution to networked repeaters, consoles, or other networked
infrastructure.
The repeater consists of a single transceiver board.
•
The transceiver board is comprised of three subsystems, which are the Receiver subsystem,
Transmitter subsystem, and Station Control subsystem. At a high level, these subsystems are
further explained, as follows:
- The Receiver subsystem is a dual heterodyne Receiver which receives the RF signal from the
subscriber’s transmitter. It then converts the resulting final intermediate frequency (IF) from an
analog signal to that of a digital word in IQ signal format. Finally, the Receiver delivers the IQ
signal, through the SSI bus, to the Station Control subsystem for demodulation. Also, the
Receiver subsystem provides for its own metering and diagnostics through software, and selfcontained calibration (no field tuning is needed for the Receiver subsystem).
- The Transmitter subsystem converts a two-port base band data signal, sent over the SSI bus
from the Station Control subsystem, to an analog signal representation. The analog signal is
then modulated with a low-power RF transmitter carrier that is generated by the Exciter
subsystem. The power modulated RF carrier is then amplified and delivered to the antenna. The
Exciter subsystem constitutes the transmitter of the repeater. Also, the Exciter subsystem
provides its own metering and diagnostics through software, and a self-contained calibration (no
field tuning is needed for the Exciter subsystem).
- The heart of the Station Control subsystem is the Texas Instruments DM8148 Host/ DSP
processor. In general, the SCM controls the entire coordination of the repeater functions.
Specifically, the Station Control subsystem provides for the following functions:
+ Contains and runs the preloaded repeater software
+ Manages inbound and outbound RF and Audio traffic
+ Provides an on-board USB port for local configuring, alignment, and diagnostics through the
following applications:
• Radio Management Configuration Client (RM)
• Tuner application
• Repeater Diagnostic and Control (RDAC) software
+ Provides an Ethernet port for IP site connectivity and remote RDAC
+ Provides GPIO connectivity for third-party controller interfaces
+ Provides for analog repeater audio connectivity
+ Data and Control to the Receiver subsystem through the SPI and SSI respectively
+ Data and Control to the Exciter subsystem through the SPI and SSI respectively
+ Control of the Transmitter’s set power through the SPI
+ Configuration and fault management
+ Generates the internal station reference
Send Feedback 39
MN003557A01-AA
Preliminary FCC Filing
Chapter 1: SLR 1000 Repeater
+ Provides control of the front panel indicator LEDs.
The Transmitter subsystem delivers the amplified signal to the transmitter antenna port at a
power level within the rated power band of the repeater, for transmission to the subscriber
radios. In addition, it provides the following hardware functions for the repeater.
+ Harmonic attenuation
+ Inter-modulation attenuation (IMA) suppression
+ RF power control (primary means)
+ Meters for diagnostics
+ Power roll back for temperature
+ Self-Contained calibration (no field alignment is needed for PA).
1.7
Basic Repeater Level Troubleshooting – RDAC and LEDs
Diagnostic tests are available for the Transceiver. If a problem occurs during station operation, it is
logged as an alarm that is read with the Repeater Diagnostic and Control application (RDAC). See
Figure 7: RDAC Diagnostic Screen on page 40 for the RDAC diagnostic screen.
Figure 7: RDAC Diagnostic Screen
The station operator then evaluates the problem locally or remotely, as the station maintains an Alarm
Log with the name of the alarm that has failed since the last power up. Through the RDAC application’s
Alarm Log, the alarm messages aid in identifying the FRU that failed along with the fault condition.
After booting up the repeater, the three LEDs (Power/ Status, Network, and Reference LEDs) flash in
unison.
The general status and condition of the SLR 1000 Repeater can be obtained by observing the three
LED indicators on the front panel. Table 9: SLR 1000 Repeater Front Panel LED Indicators on page
40 shows the LED symbols and their meaning, while Table 10: SLR 1000 Front Panel LED Definitions
on page 41 identifies the information conveyed through the LED indicators.

Receiver Subsystem
The Transceiver board includes the receiver circuitry for the station. A cable connects the board
connector to an N-type connector on the upper left hand side of the repeater.
See Figure 10: SLR 1000 Repeater Transceiver Board Connector Locations on page 45 for the
location of this connector. The receiver section performs highly-selective bandpass filtering and dual
down-conversion of the desired RF signal. A custom Receiver IC then performs an analog-to-digital
conversion of the desired received signal and outputs the digitized signal to the controller section via a
serial synchronous interface. Included in the receiver section is:
Frequency Synthesizer Circuitry
Consists of a phase-locked loop and Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO), generates the first LO
injection signal.
Varactor-tuned Preselector Filter(s)
Provides bandpass filtering of the station Receiver RF input.
Receiver Front End Circuitry
Performs filtering, amplification, and the first down conversion of the Receiver RF signal.
Receiver-specific piece of transceiver IC Circuitry
Consists of receiver-specific parts of a transceiver IC which performs the second down conversion,
filtering, amplification, and analog-to-digital conversion of the receive signal.
Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) Circuitry
Converts analog Receiver status signals to digital format for transfer to the controller circuitry
located on the Transceiver board.

Transmitter Subsystem
The Transmitter subsystem on the Transceiver board provides the transmitter functions for the station.
The Transmitter subsystem interfaces directly with the controller section, which provides control signals
and monitoring, and routes transmit data to the Exciter.
The RF carrier is generated by a frequency synthesizer consisting of synthesizer circuitry and VoltageControlled Oscillator (VCO) circuitry. Exciter circuit control signals, monitoring, and audio processing
are handled by the controller section of the transceiver board. Included in the transmitter subsystem
are:
Frequency Synthesizer Circuitry
Consists of a phase-locked loop and Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO), generates a modulated
RF signal at the transmitter carrier frequency.
RF Isolation Switch
Allows the controller section to turn on/off the Exciter RF input signal which greatly reduces signal
leakage when the transmitter is de-keyed.
Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) Circuitry
Converts the analog transmitter status signals to the digital format for transfer, upon request, to the
controller section of the Transceiver board.

The analog audio stages are used exclusively for external accessories connected through the bottom
RJ-45 accessory connector.
The critical components of the audio circuit are the TI DM8148 processor and a Texas Instruments
AIC3204 dual channel audio codecs. Figure 11: SLR 1000 Repeater Audio Block Diagram on page
48 details the specific interconnects between the critical components.
Figure 11: SLR 1000 Repeater Audio Block Diagram
The repeater digital audio is handled primarily by the DM8148 processor. The TX RFIC generates a
24.576 MHz master clock (MCLK) that the DM8148 uses to drive its McASP SSI interface for the audio
codecs. The bulk of the audio processing is done in the DaVinci’s DSP core. The audio codecs contain
DACs and ADCs and handle the conversion of the digital audio to analog audio and vice versa.

CAUTION: This repeater contains static-sensitive devices. Do not open the repeater unless you
are properly grounded. Take the following precautions when working on this unit:
Store and transport all CMOS/LDMOS devices in conductive material so that all exposed
•
leads are shorted together. Do not insert CMOS/LDMOS devices into conventional plastic
"snow" trays used for storage and transportation of other semiconductor devices.
• Ground the working surface of the service bench to protect the CMOS/LDMOS device. We
recommend using the Motorola Solutions Static Protection Assembly (part number
0180386A82), which includes a wrist strap, two ground cords, a table mat, and a floor mat,
ESD shoes and an ESD chair.
• Wear a conductive wrist strap in series with a 100k resistor to ground. (Replacement wrist
straps that connect to the bench top covering are Motorola Solutions part number
4280385A59).
• Do not wear nylon clothing while handling CMOS/LDMOS devices.
• Do not insert or remove CMOS/LDMOS devices with power applied. Check all power
supplies used for testing CMOS/LDMOS devices to be certain that there are no voltage
transients present.
• When straightening CMOS/LDMOS pins, provide ground straps for the apparatus used.
• When soldering, use a grounded soldering iron.
• If at all possible, handle CMOS/LDMOS devices by the package and not by the leads. Prior
to touching the unit, touch an electrical ground to remove any static charge that you may
have accumulated. The package and substrate may be electrically common. If so, the
reaction of a discharge to the case would cause the same damage as touching the leads.

Pre-Installation Considerations
Proper installation ensures the best possible performance and reliability of the repeater.
Pre-installation planning is required. This includes considering the mounting location of the equipment
in relation to input power, antennas, and system interfaces. Also to be considered are site environment
conditions, the particular mounting method (several available), and required tools and equipment.
It is highly recommended to read the following before installing this type of equipment for the first time:
this entire installation section before beginning the actual installation, and
•
• the Motorola Solutions Quality Standard Fixed Network Equipment Installation manual, R56 (which
can be obtained by ordering CDROM 9880384V83), specifically refer to the information on ground
connection for lightning protection.
10.1.1
Installation Overview
The following information is an overview for installing the repeater and ancillary equipment.
Step-by-step procedures for each of the major installation tasks are then provided beginning in
Mechanical Installation on page 82.
• Plan the installation, paying particular attention to environmental conditions at the site, ventilation
requirements, and grounding and lightning protection.
• Unpack and inspect the equipment.
• Mechanically install the equipment at the site.
• Make necessary electrical and cabling connections, including the following:
- DC input cabling
- Coaxial cables to transmit and receive antennas
- System cables
• Perform a post-installation function checkout test of the equipment to verify proper installation.
Proceed to the Optimization procedures to customize the repeater parameters per customer
specifications (such as operating frequency, PL, codes, and so on.)
10.1.2
Site Environmental Conditions
The installation location of the SLR 1000 Repeater must follow precautions and be conducted in such a
way so that access is limited to technicians with adequate training and skills.
CAUTION: The repeater is a natural-convection cooled device and may get hot when installed
in hot and/or high solar load environments. Use of on-board antennas also creates a potential
exposure to RF energy that must be considered.
The repeater may be installed in a suitable, restricted access, indoor or outdoor location suitable for
electronic communications equipment that do not exceed the equipment specifications for temperature
or ingress. Unit orientation, solar loading, antenna, and cable load quality may all affect the
temperature and performance of the unit.

The environmental conditions are:
Operating Temperature Range – Vertical orientation
•
-30 °C (-22 °F) to +60 °C (+140 °F)
The operating temperature range is the temperature measured close to the repeater, near the fin
inlets (bottom). Other factors, such as orientation, solar loading, duty cycle, and VSWR can affect
transmit power and/or maximum operating temperature range.
• Ingress
The repeater has been designed to IP65 ingress protection. It provides protection against blowing
water and dust and can be deployed in harsh industrial indoor environments and/or outdoor
applications where rain, snow, and dust are prevalent.
• Vibration and Loads
The repeater hardware has been designed to survive high vibration and wind loads (up to 150 mph)
encountered in outdoor environments and may be installed in vehicular environments when
equipped with ruggedized mounting brackets or trunnions.
10.1.3
Equipment Ventilation
The SLR 1000 Repeater is a natural-convection or passively cooled device with no fans. Care must be
taken in mounting the unit to ensure that fresh air can flow into the fin entrances and heated air can
adequately escape.
10.1.3.1
Ventilation for a Ceiling Mount
Ceiling mounting of the SLR 1000 Repeater requires that the bracket is mounted against the ceiling
surface and that the unit is positioned with the fins facing up towards the ceiling.
Fresh air flows into both ends of the fins and the heated air exhausts out the top of the fin channels.
The mounting bracket (same as used for the wall mount) provides an adequate gap between the unit
fin tips and the ceiling surface. The fin cooling effectiveness in this orientation is slightly lower than
vertical wall mount orientations and that some power shutback at high ambients may occur. It is not
recommended to mount any optional AC power supplies onto the mounting bracket when in a ceiling
orientation, as the exhaust air is restricted from rising and could overheat the power supply unit as well.
10.1.3.2
Ventilation for a Wall Mount
Wall mounting of the SLR 1000 Repeater requires that the bracket is mounted against the wall surface
and that the unit is positioned with the fins running vertically.
Fresh air flows into the bottom of the fins and the heated air exhausts out the top of the fin channels.
Mounting of the unit with the fins running horizontally or other orientations other than vertical reduces
the airflow through the fins and that some power shutback at high ambients may occur. The wall mount
bracket provides adequate gap and mounting provisions for integration of an optional AC power supply
between the fins and the bracket. As airflow occurs bottom to top, this does not impact thermal
performance in the vertical orientation.

AC Input Power Requirements
For indoor applications, a standard indoor power supply with an IEC C13 appliance connector is
available. The adapter may be combined with bracket BR000276A01 so that it can be integrated onto
the wall mount bracket with the SLR 1000 Repeater or attached directly to the wall or ceiling.
Use a standard 3-wire grounded electrical outlet as the AC source.
CAUTION: The AC socket outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily
accessible.
For outdoor applications, a sealed IP67 rated AC power converter is available. This unit may be
attached directly to the wall mount bracket with the repeater. It includes a water tight cable junction
connector and requires extra wiring, conduit, and/or similar provisions to connect to the AC source.
The outlet must be connected to an AC source capable of supplying a maximum of 500 VA. For a
nominal 110/120 VAC input, the AC source must supply 1.3A for indoor and 1.2A for outdoor
(minimum). Per R56, the minimum ampacity of the circuit (and protective breaker) feeding the repeater
should be no less than 15A. For a nominal 220/240 VAC input, the ampacity requirements can be
halved.

In addition, an integrated compact antenna accessory is available to facilitate mounting the antenna
directly on the unit. If the duplexer or antenna switch accessories are not used, external antennas are
required. Additionally, because the antenna is mounted directly to the repeater, it is not recommended
to use the integrated antenna in applications where a direct lightning strike to the unit could occur as
significant damage to the repeater and/or connected equipment could occur. Consult R56 manual for
details and necessary provisions for surge protection on RF cable and antennas.

This section describes power, antenna, and cable connections.
10.3.1.1
DC Input Power Connection/ DC Power Connection
Each repeater comes with a 3-meter DC input cable with a barrel type connector output that connects
to the repeater.
For DC operation, the DC source power is connected to the repeater through the DC power inlet
connector shown in Figure 37: SLR 1000 Repeater Bottom Panel Connector Names and Locations
page 84.
For sealing the cable, first thread the gland nut, then the cable gland over the barrel connector. The
connector is inserted into the repeater and then you thread in and torque the cable gland. Last, thread
on the nut and torque to compress the gland and seal to the cable jacket. Ensure that the barrel
connector is full seated before final tightening of the gland nut.
Longer runs of DC power require a junction box or splice connection of some type near the repeater so
that larger gage cable can be used and then connected to the DC barrel cable (cut to length as
needed). Cable gage and length should be carefully selected to ensure nominal voltage at the supply
does not fall below minimum specified.
The DC source must be located in the same building as the repeater, and it must meet the
requirements of an SELV circuit.
CAUTION: Ensure that the appropriate voltage is connected with a nominal 13.6 VDC (10.8 –
15.6 VDC).
10.3.1.2
on
AC Input Power Connection
AC/DC power supplies are available and operate from 100–240 VAC at 47–63 Hz AC input power. A
standard 3-prong line cord is required to connect the power supply to the AC source.
CAUTION: Do not apply AC power to the SLR 1000 Repeater at this time. Make sure that the
circuit breaker associated with the AC outlet is turned OFF.
The DC socket-outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.

System connections are made through the Aux and/or Ethernet connectors located on the bottom
panel of the repeater. The positions of the Aux and Ethernet connectors are shown in Figure 37: SLR
1000 Repeater Bottom Panel Connector Names and Locations on page 84.
See Auxiliary (Aux)/Accessory on page 55 for a description of the signaling that is supported by the
Aux connector.
10.3.2
Installing Cable Grommet Connectors or Plugs
Cable sealing glands or cordgrips are used to seal the openings in the bottom of the SLR 1000
Repeater when a cable is used with the repeater. It is expected that the RJ-45 cables for LAN and
GPIO are field terminated as the RJ-45 connectors cannot fit through the cable gland, and cables are
typically made to length on site in a typical installation. Solid plugs are provided to seal the USB
Programming connector and any unused cable ports.
Prerequisites: Obtain a 1 in. torque wrench.
NOTICE: Cables must be field terminated on at least one end to allow the cable to be inserted
through the cable gland.

EME Assessment
NOTICE: The example in this Appendix applies for a UHF band system. For different frequency
bands, applicable band-specific parameters should be employed to carry out the computations
yielding band-specific compliance boundaries.
Executive Summary
Compliance is established with respect to the U.S. FCC regulations [11] in a typical system
configuration of the MOTOTRBO SLR 1000 Repeater described in the following as derived.
A computational assessment was carried out to provide an estimation of the EME exposure and
compliance distances relative to the FCC ID ABZ99FT4100, Model
HKAE4003_, HKAE4004_, and HKAE4005_ antennas.
The following table provides the compliance distances for general public and occupational-type
exposure, for the UHF frequency band, antenna, and parameters considered in this analysis, based on
a typical system configuration:

Outdoor Exposure Prediction Model
This section describes how to determine the outdoor exposure model prediction of an antenna.
Whole-Body SAR Compliance
Full-wave and half-wave simulations are represented to show the exposure conditions.
The full-wave simulations based on the FDTD method were performed at 400 MHz and 470 MHz which
includes the operating band of the evaluated antenna. The simulation code employed was XFDTD,
version 7.3 by Remcom Inc., State College, PA. The exposed subject was modeled by a
heterogeneous full body model standardized for SAR evaluation according to the IEC/IEEE 62704-2
draft standard [12].
The half-wave dipole antenna and maximum radiated power were used to represent the exposure
condition. At each frequency, two individual simulations representing the exposure from the front and
back at 40 cm distance from the dipole were conducted. No losses other than dissipation of RF energy
inside the human body were assumed in the FDTD modeling, which provides an extra degree of

Table 30: Whole-Body Average SAR Results on page 100 presents the whole-body average SAR
results for the simulated conditions at. To account for the actual measured antenna gain of 4.1 dBi
which is higher than the half -wave dipole gain by factor of 1.57 the whole-body average results were
scaled by that factor and are present in a separate column as adjusted whole-body SAR values
alongside.
