This series provides an EPM (ECCM) method for secure and jam-resistant voice and data
links. With the exception of the independent sidetone emissions B8E, B7D,
MIL-STD-188-110B Appendix F and the navy modem standards STANAG-4481 and
STANAG-5065, it is fully interoperable with the Rohde & Schwarz family R&S M3TR.
Important equipment functions such as automatic link establishment (ALE) or several
HF modems are implemented purely in software.
The radios support frequency hopping and provide interoperability with the
R&S M3TR Family.
R&S M3SR Series 4100 offers solutions to all aspects of HF radiocommunications as well
as a uniform interlogistics concept. The transceiver family is primarily designed for use on
board ships, in coastal stations and semi-mobile shelters.
The main features of R&S M3SR Series 4100 are:
•Unrivaled radio parameters

1.5Functioning of e.g. Receiver / Exciter
The modules are controlled and monitored by the control logic, part of the module Motherboard. In addition, the control logic contains a memory for configuration data and module
parameters.
The Radio Controller (= RC) as a central module controls the entire radio and handles all
user voice and data services. The RC consists of a microcontroller with external memory,
and digital signal processors (= DSP) and control logic. The control interface to the modules
is the parallel radio control bus (RCB). The control interface to the power am plifier is the serial radio control bus. The enhanced serial synchronous interface (= ESSI) is the digital interface between digital IF processing on the radio controller and IF sampling/IQ modulation
in the frontend.
When the radio operates in receive mode, the radio frequency signal is take n from antenna
connector X2112 to the module Frontend. In the frontend, the radio frequency signal is
transmitted along the HF path to the mixer stages. The mixer stages get the LO sig nals (LO1:
40.058 MHz to 70.048 MHz, LO2: 80 MHz) from the module synthesizer. The AGC-con-
trolled 2
frontend.
nd
IF signal with a frequency of 48 kHz is demodulated in the digital section of the
In transmit operation, the signal generation of th e modulated carrier at 48 kHz is achieved by
a direct digital synthesizer (= DDS) with a digital quadrature modulator. Afterwards the IF i s
upconverted to the final RF frequency. This is done by mixer stages. The mixed signal is amplified for low noise generation. Unwanted products of the mixed signal are suppressed with
a pre-selector and a low-pass filter, respect ively .
The module Synthesizer generates two RF signals (LO1, LO2) for the module frontend and
two reference signals (100 kHz, 10 kHz) for other modules. All generated frequencies are
synchronized by an internal 10 MHz oven-controlled crystal oscillator (= OCXO) or by an external 1 MHz, 5 MHz or 10 MHz referenc e fre q ue n cy.
The module Power Supply uses the +28 VDC input voltage to generate a ll voltages required
in the radio.
The Interface Module connects the RCB and discrete signals between the mo therboard and
up to three further rear modules.
The audio Front Panel accommodates control and display elements.
The optional module Control Unit plus the FSW0 software form the man-machine interface
(= MMI) of the radio. The MMI guides the operator through menu-based operating procedures and selectively visualizes all status types on the display. Commands are entered by
making use of the control elements and the keypad. Operation and indication of the radio's
operating status are both menu-oriented, operator interaction is performed via the display
and keyboard.

Operating Manual 6175.4760.02 – 011.17
M3SR Series 4100Radio Control
To guarantee the proper operation of both radio and control unit connec ted to a local
area network (LAN), the IP settings of the rad io as well as the IP settings of the control
unit need to be configured accordingly befor e connecting radio and control unit to the
LAN (see sect. 2.8 Basic Configuration of the Radio and sect. 2.9 Basic Configuration
of the Control Unit).
Once the radio has been configured via control unit, the radio can operate without control
unit. This is possible due to the fact that the radio with all parts necessary for transmitting,
receiving and data processing can operate completely independent of the control unit. In the
same way the control unit is independent from the radio.
Therefore in the remainder of the document a reference to 'radio' always means the transceiver or receiver, without control unit.
The term 'control unit' is used where there is no difference between the built- in (local) control
unit and a remote (stand-alone) control unit. Differences are only mentioned where necessary.
1.9.1Radio with Several Control Units
The radio can service the built-in control unit as well as up to two remote control units at the
same time. All the control units are connected to the radio via LAN (see Figure 1.7).

Operating Manual 6175.4760.02 – 011.19
M3SR Series 4100Radio Control
A radio can service several control units, but only one control unit can have operational access rights at a time, the other control units can have only monitoring rights
(for details about radio access rights see sect. 3.3 Control and Monitoring of Radio
and Control Unit).
1.9.2Several Radios and Control Units in a Network
Several radios and control units may be connected to a local area network (LAN, see
Figure 1.8). Each radio and each control unit is identified by a unique IP address. The control
units can reach the radios in the network using the unique radio IP addresses. Due to this
fact any radio connected to the LAN can be operated and monitore d by any control unit connected to the same LAN. Precondition is that all the components in the LAN, in particular radios and control units, are configured accordingly in advance (see sect. 2.8 Basic
Configuration of the Radio and sect. 2.9 Basic Configuration of the Control Unit).

M3SR Series 4100Unpacking, Checking, Packing, Transport and Storage
2.1.3Transport
For data such as permissible altitude for air transport see the data sheet.
During transport provide sufficient mechanical and antistatic protection of the unit (see
”Packing” on p. 2.1)!
2.1.4Storage
For data such as permissible storage temperature see the data sheet.
Store the unit in a dry dust-free place. Otherwise pack the unit (e.g. seal it in antistatic foil).
Unless otherwise specified, we recommend to put the unit into operation once a year for at
least three hours. This helps to extend the unit's service life, in particular the durability of the
electrolytic capacitors contained therein (by preventing disintegration of dielectric).
The unit contains a lithium battery which should be replaced once every five years. For further information see the Service Manual (on separate order only).

Switching On
For HF-Broadband system (HF-BB)
All system components has to be switched on at the same time (R&S GV4190 and all
R&S GX4100 and R&S VK4190).
By pressing 'ON/OFF' (1 and Figure 2.10) at the radio front panel the radio is switched on. If
a built-in control unit is installed, it will be switched on automatically, too.
The 'ON/OFF' button (5) at a built-in control unit does not switch the radio on (see
Figure 2.10).
After switching the radio on it takes a few seconds for the boot process to complete. When
the boot process has finished, the following LEDs at the radio front panel are illuminated to
indicate readiness for operation:
•Radio LED AC / DC (2, Figure 2.10) or LED BATT (3 and Figure 2.10): power available
•Radio LED GO (4, Figure 2.10): radio ok
Switching the radio on automatically also switches a built-in control unit on. After switching
on, the built-in control unit comes up with the Home menu (see sect. 3.3 Control and Monitoring of Radio and Control Unit) and the following LEDs at the built-in control unit are illuminated:
•Control Unit LED ON (6): control unit is switched on
•Control Unit LED CU (7): control unit is fully operative
When the built-in control unit is connected to the radio, the control unit LED GO (8)
indicates that this radio is fully operative.

M3SR Series 4100Automatic Update of Modules
2.6.1Automatic Update of Modules
The radios test the firmware versions of connected internal and external hardware modules
after switching on. If any old or wrong versions are detected, an automatic update is offer ed
to ensure optimal performance of the radio system. If the operator does not accept the offered update within 30 seconds, the radio continues its boot process as usual.
If not performing the update process, the radio will indicate the wrong module firmware versions after startup with warnings. In addition, the error list will contain the message "UPDATE
NEEDED".
As long as the update is offered or running, it is not pos sible to operate the rad io and
only a reduced set of remote commands is a vailable. Plea se refer to the remo te inte rface documentation for details.
Automatic Update is supported for the following modules:
•Frontend
•Synthesizer
•Motherboard
•R&S GS4102
•R&S FK4120 / R&S FK4140
•R&S VK4115
•R&S VK4150 / R&S VK4150
