							Chapter 4 Radio Programming and Tuning
4.1 Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of the MOTOTRBO Customer Programming Software (CPS), as 
well as the Tuner and AirTracer applications, which are all designed for use in a Windows 2000/XP 
environment. These programs are available in one kit  as listed in Table 4-1. An Installation Guide is 
also included with the kit.
4.2 Customer Programm ing Software Setup
The CPS programming setup, shown in Figu re 4-1 is used to program the radio.
Figure 4-1.  CPS Programming Setup
4.3 AirTracer Application Tool
The MOTOTRBO AirTracer application  tool has the ability to capture over-the-air digital radio traffic 
and save the captured data into a file. The AirTra cer application tool can also retrieve and save 
NOTERefer to the appropriate program on-line help files for the programming procedures.

personnel to suggest improvements in system  configurations or to help isolate problems.
4.4 Radio Tuning Setup
A personal computer (PC), Windows 2000/XP and a tuner program are required to tune the radio. 
To perform the tuning procedures, the radio must  be connected to the PC, radio interface box (RIB), 
and test equipment setup as shown in Figure 4-2.

							Chapter 5 Disassembly/Reassembly Procedures
5.1 Introduction
This chapter provides details about the following:
• Preventive maintenance (i nspection and cleaning).
• Safe handling of CMOS and LDMOS devices.
• Disassembly and reassembly of the radio.
• Repair procedures and techniques.
5.2 Preventive Maintenance
Periodic visual inspection and cleaning is recommended.
5.2.1 Inspection
Check that the external surfaces of  the radio are clean, and that all external controls and switches 
are functional. It is not recommended to  inspect the interior electronic circuitry.
5.2.2 Cleaning Procedures
The following procedures describe the recommended cleaning agents and the methods to be used 
when cleaning the external and internal surfaces of  the radio. External surfaces include the front 
cover, housing assembly and battery case. These su rfaces should be cleaned whenever a periodic 
visual inspection reveals the presence  of smudges, grease, and/or grime. 
The only recommended agent for cleaning the external  radio surfaces is a 0.5% solution of a mild 
dishwashing detergent in water. The only factory  recommended liquid for cleaning the printed circuit 
boards and their components is isopropyl alcohol (100% by volume).
NOTEInternal surfaces should be cleaned only when the radio is disassembled for service or
repair.
The effects of certain chemicals and their vapors can have harmful results on 
certain plastics. Avoid using aerosol sprays, tuner cleaners and other 
chemicals.

							5-2Disassembly/Reassembly Procedures : Safe Handling of CMOS and LDMOS Devices
Cleaning External Plastic Surfaces
Apply the 0.5% deterg ent-water solution sparingly with a stif f, non-metallic, short-bristled brush to 
work all loose dirt away from the radio. Use a sof t, absorbent, lintless cloth or tissue to remove the 
solution and dry the radio. Make sure that no water remains entrapped near the connectors, cracks, 
or crevices.
Cleaning Internal Circuit Boards and Components
Isopropyl alcohol (100%) may be a pplied with a stiff, non-metallic, short-bristled brush to dislodge 
embedded or caked materials located in hard-to-reach areas. The brush stroke should direct the 
dislodged material out and away from the inside of the radio. Make sure that controls or tunable 
components are not soaked with alcohol. Do not use high-pressure air to hasten the drying process 
since this could cause the liquid to collect in un wanted places. After completing of the cleaning 
process, use a soft, absorbent, lintless cloth to dr y the area. Do not brush or apply any isopropyl 
alcohol to the frame, front cover or back cover.
5.3 Safe Handling of CMOS and LDMOS Devices
Complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) devices are used in this family of radios, and 
are susceptible to damage by electrostatic or high  voltage charges. Damage can be latent, resulting 
in failures occurring weeks  or months later. Therefore, special  precautions must be taken to prevent 
device damage during disassembly, troubleshooting, and repair. 
Handling precautions are mandatory for CMOS circuits  and are especially important in low humidity 
conditions. DO NOT attempt to disassemble the radio without first referring to the CMOS CAUTION 
paragraph in the Disassembly and Reassembly section of the manual.
NOTEAlways use a fresh supply of alcohol and a clean container to prevent contamination by 
dissolved material (from previous usage). 
						

							Disassembly/Reassembly Procedures: Safe Handling of CMOS and LDMOS Devices 5-3
DO NOT attempt to disassemble the radio with out first referring to the following CAUTION 
statement.
This radio contains static-sensitive devic es. Do not open the radio unless you are 
properly grounded. Take the following precautions when working on this unit:
• Store and transport all CMOS devices in conductive material so that  all exposed leads are shorted together. Do not insert CMOS 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 device. We recommend using the Motorola Static Protection 
Assembly (part number 0180386A82 ), which includes a wrist strap, 
two ground cords, a table mat, and a floor mat.
• 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 part number 4280385A59).
• Do not wear nylon clothing while handling CMOS devices.
• Do not insert or remove CMOS  devices with power applied. Check 
all power supplies used for testing  CMOS devices to be certain that 
there are no voltage transients present.
• When straightening CMOS pins, provide ground straps for the  apparatus used.
• When soldering, use a grounded soldering iron.
• If at all possible, handle CMOS 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.

5.4 Repair Procedures and Techniques – General
Any rework or repair on Environmentally Preferred Products must be done using the appropriate 
lead-free solder wire and lead-free solder paste as stated in the following table:
Parts Replacement and Substitution
When damaged parts are replaced, identical parts sh ould be used. If the identical replacement part 
is not locally available, check the parts list for t he proper Motorola part number and order the part 
Rigid Circuit Boards
This family of radios uses bonded, multi-layer, pr inted circuit boards. Since the inner layers are not 
accessible, some special considerations are required when soldering and unsoldering components. 
The printed-through holes may interconnect multiple la yers of the printed circuit. Therefore, exercise 
care to avoid pulling the plat ed circuit out of the hole.
When soldering near a connector: • Avoid accidentally getting solder in the connector.
• Be careful not to form solder bridges between the connector pins.
• Examine your work closely for shorts due to solder bridges.
5.5 Disassembling and Reassem bling the Radio — General
When disassembling and reassembling the radio, it is important to pay particular attention to the 
snaps and tabs, and how parts align with each other.NOTE
Environmentally Preferred Prod
ucts (EPP) (refer to the marking on the printed circuit
boards — examples shown below) were developed and assembled using 
environmentally preferred components and solder assembly techniques to comply with
the European Union’s  Restriction of Hazardous Substances (ROHS) Directive 2002/
95/EC and Waste Electrical and Electronic E quipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/
EC. To maintain product compliance and reliability, use only the Motorola specified parts
in this manual.
