FÖRSVARETS MATERIELVERK TEKNISK ORDER DRIFT DF SAMBAND 100 023030 R&S M3SR Transceivers DEFINITIONS DEFINITIONS Check In appropriate measurements by means of the specified test equipment, proper functioning of a unit or module is established. Discolouration Components such as connectors and printed circuit boards are examined if they have changed colour due to temperature effects and thus differ widely from their normal condition. Disconnect Pull off connector. Examine In case of trouble the unit / module or components such as e.g. connectors, are to be thoroughly checked for obvious mechanical damage. Functional check This means that components / modules / units are checked for proper functioning while installed. Hazardous voltages Voltages > 30 Vrms or 50 Vpp (AC) or 50 V (DC) Make sure Ascertain whether all mentioned requirements are met or all measures are taken to establish the required condition. Open Access is to be gained to the unit / module by observing the given instructions and safety precautions. Perfect condition This means that a component / module / unit has to be in a state which does not give cause to complaints. Replacement In case of trouble the replacement of modules is carried out in order to localize and eliminate the fault. Replace Components / modules / units which - due to damage and / or other defects no longer meet the respective requirements or components / modules / units which during troubleshooting were identified as the cause of fault, are to be replaced. Visual examination This is a visual inspection of the outer appearance and completeness of a component / module / unit without manual interference by the examiner. This does not include the necessary preparations and finishing work such as opening and closing of covers or similar.

The following modules are integrated: • Radio Basis R&S KR 4400 It consists of several parts, mainly mechanical parts of the chassis and housing parts for the internal transceiver modules. The radio platform is located in the left-hand part of the chassis. It contains a number of interface connectors which are either connected to internal subassemblies or for general purpose to external ones. The radio module bus, consisting of the radio control bus and radio data bus, transfers internal data. The front panel unit, located directly on the right side of the front, has various control and display elements such as LEDs and buttons, external connectors as well as a loudspeaker. • VHF/UHF Receiver R&S ET 4400 (Main Receiver) The receiver is a plug-in module located in one of the slots in the left-hand centre part of the chassis. It is of compact design, both sides being EMC-protected by appropriate shielding covers. The receiver is held in place by quick-release fasteners. • VHF/UHF Synthesizer R&S GF 4400T The synthesizer is a plug-in module located in one of the slots in the left-hand centre part of the chassis. It is of compact design, both sides being EMC-protected by appropriate shielding covers. The synthesizer is held in place by quick-release fasteners. • UHF Filter R&S FD 4430 The UHF filter is a plug-in module located in the centre left-hand part of the chassis, next to the control unit. Once plugged into the radio platform in its assigned slot, the UHF filter is held in place by quick-release fasteners. • Interface Module R&S GH 4450 The interface module is a plug-in module in the left rear part of the chassis. At its top it carries several connectors for ribbon-cable connections towards the transmitter unit. In addition, the plug-in module contains three interfaces for the rear modules. • Transmitter Unit R&S VT 4403 The transmitter unit is a power module located in the right-hand part of the chassis and extending over its full depth. It consists of the transmitter board at the top and the DC power supply located underneath. Both subassemblies are shielded by EMC covers. Additionally, a heat sink with two fans is installed. • Control Unit R&S GB 4000C The control unit is located on the left side of the front.

Via LAN/ethernet, the server is connected to its clients. Clients may be an integrated Control Unit R&S GB 4000C and/or further Control Units R&S GB 4000C connected via the LAN connector X20 and a LAN hub or customer-specific devices. The clients plus the software package R&S DS 4400A form the MMI (= man-machine interface) of the transceiver. Clients are controlled by using the GB2PP protocol. 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 transceiver's operating status are both menu-oriented, operator interaction is performed via the display and keyboard. The modules are controlled by the central processor via the radio module bus (RMB). The radio platform stores all parameters relating to the individual modules. A system monitor monitors the temperatures and operating voltages. In a clock section all clock signals needed by the radio platform are generated. The RMB connects the modules of R&S XT 4410A to one another and also to the central processor and the I/O interfaces. The serial interface is used for data transmission and remote control purposes. Parallel interfaces are used as discrete inputs and outputs channels and control for instance an externally connected filter and/or amplifier. An audio frequency interface (AFI) processes the analog signals in digital form so that they can be transmitted digitally on the radio data bus (RDB). At the front panel of the radio platform there are control and display elements. An ethernet port is available for sending and receiving data for service purposes (configuration and software download). When the transceiver operates in receive mode, the RF signal is taken from antenna connector X30 to the VHF/UHF transmitter board. From here it is routed via a Tx/Rx switch to the UHF Filter R&S FD 4430. The input stages of the filter are directly protected against electrostatic discharge. The filter is working for the VHF/UHF Receiver R&S ET 4400 (main receiver) as a preselector to reduce the interfering levels from other radios of the platform. In the main receiver, the RF signal passes along a VHF path (100 MHz to 224.975 MHz) or a UHF path (225 MHz to 512 MHz) to the mixer stages. The mixer stages get the LO signal (365 to 652 MHz) from VHF/UHF Synthesizer R&S GF 4400T. The AGC-controlled 2nd IF signal with a frequency of 455 kHz is demodulated in the digital section of the receiver. The demodulated baseband signal is taken to the RDB for further processing. In transmit operation, VHF/UHF Synthesizer R&S GF 4400T generates a carrier frequency in the range from 100 MHz to 512 MHz. For amplitude modulation, this carrier frequency is modulated by the VHF/UHF transmitter board. FM signals (both analog FM and digital FSK 1.8 Operating Manual 6172.4399.02 – 01 FÖRSVARETS MATERIELVERK R&S M3SR Transceivers TEKNISK ORDER DRIFT DF SAMBAND 100 023030 Functioning, e.g. R&S XT 4410A, Mod. 22 signals) are generated by the synthesizer to be merely amplified by the VHF/UHF transmitter board (signal RF_Drive). After amplification and filtering, the resulting signal is made available at antenna connector X30. The UHF Filter R&S FD 4430 is working as postselector. The filter chain is located within the transmit path of the radio. The selectivity of the filter chain reduces the transmitted noise energy of the radio which may degrade the sensitivity of other receiving radios on the platform. Interface Module R&S GH 4450 connects the RMB and discrete signals between the radio platform, the VHF/UHF transmitter board and up to three further rear modules. The RMB switches from transmission to reception status. The integrated DC power supply uses the +28 V DC input voltage to generate all voltages required in R&S XT 4410A.

The parameters of the radio are set via the man-machine interface (MMI). This means that the radios can be reprogrammed regarding waveforms and external interfaces. Modules like a guard receiver as well as a protection processor module can be integrated. Each module has an integrated firmware. Therefore the radio has an open system architecture that allows future updates. Additional Options and Modules The possibility of this radio generation to enhance functionality by loading new application software is an outstanding new feature. This requires a certain expansion stage regarding the hardware. If it is necessary, new hardware modules can be integrated. Device settings can be made locally via the menus of the local control panel (CP) or via a remote control unit (CU) or via remote control commands (GB2PP protocol) via LAN. Software and hardware options are available to provide the radio units with additional EPM waveforms. Frequency Ranges of Basic Units The frequency ranges depend on installed option codes. Modularity All R&S M3SR units are based on the uniform Radio Basis R&S KR 4400, which consists of a mechanical frame, the radio platform and the audio front panel. The radio platform itself processes the AF signals, independently of the transmitter and the receiver modules. Depending on the desired radio equipment configuration, radio modules such as main receiver, synthesizer or guard receiver are inserted. A transmitter module with an integrated DC/DC power supply is built in. Six free slots for user-specific plug-in cards are integrated in the rear part of the unit. Local / Remote Application The radio is delivered by default without an integrated control unit. The local Control Unit R&S GB 4000C is available as an option. The radio can be completely remote-configured and controlled for example with the R&S GB 4000C. There is no limitation for remote control. In local mode the radio can be used as a tabletop unit as a voice radio. Then it is controlled by the integrated control unit.

In manual mode the user has the possibility to select a waveform and to manipulate all waveform specific parameters. In preset mode the user can also select a waveform, but the waveform specific parameters are loaded (predefined parameters from a so-called preset page). 3.3.2.1 Manual Mode The manual mode is an expert mode that allows all parameters to be changed. To establish a connection, a lot of parameters for the receiving and transmitting radio must be identical. For example if radio 1 is transmitting in AM modulation, radio 2 cannot demodulate the signal if it is configured for FM modulation. The manual setting of the required parameters is therefore a source of error and time-consuming. So setting all necessary communication parameters quickly and comprehensively is not possible in manual mode.

An optional guard receiver always checks these two frequencies irrespective of the used waveform or mode of the radio. If the radio has one common antenna for Tx and Rx, it can either receive or transmit at a time. It is not possible to hear an emergency call while transmitting. With separate antennas for Tx and Rx, the radio is able to receive an emergency call on 121.5 MHz or 243.0 MHz while transmitting on a different frequency at the same time. Receiving Emergency Calls (Guard Monitoring) The radio offers three applications to observe emergency calls. They may be enabled or disabled independently and can be used simultaneously. 1. Guard monitoring on main voice output. Received audio from main receiver and guard receiver will be mixed and appear together at the main voice audio output of the radio. For more information refer to sect. 3.6.3.6 Audio Monitoring. 2. Guard monitoring on separate voice output. A received guard signal will be forwarded to a separate voice output, which is exclusively reserved for the guard receiver. For details refer to sect. 3.6.3.5 Resource Management. 3. Guard monitoring at front panel loudspeaker and headset. For details refer to sect. 3.2 Basic Operating Concepts. Use SELECT key to choose between: - Main audio output acc. to 1.

Mode Link11/ LinkY is designed for operation on high-frequency (HF) ground wave and can also operate in the UHF band. The UHF range (225 MHz to 399.975 MHz) is used for LOS (line of sight) connections between stations on the ground, ships and aircrafts. The Link11 / LinkY data terminal set (DTS) interfaces a tactical data system (TDS) via an optional encryption device. Formatted data for the DTS is generated in the TDS computer to transfer data in Link11 / LinkY data format to a UHF transceiver. The transceiver receives the data signal via the narrow band interface, processes the signal and radiates it in the UHF band. The DTS, TDS and the encryption device are third-party equipment. The Link11 / LinkY waveform is a non-hopping waveform. R&S M3SR radios with activated Link11 / LinkY mode comply with the applicable standard STANAG 5511. The following preconditions must be fulfilled for Link11 / LinkY operation of R&S M3SR radios: • The radio employed must be a transceiver capable of the UHF or full frequency range. • The Link11 / LinkY option must be installed. • To configure the transceiver accordingly, Link11 / LinkY must be enabled in the resource management (menu 1145, Link11 tab). • The radio must be connected to the DTS according to Figure 3.45.

The occupied bandwidth may be up to 300 kHz, depending on the hardware model. The functions of up/down conversion of the IF signal to the UHF band (225 MHz to 399.975 MHz) with control of transmitter power and receiver gain are performed within the R&S M3SR radio, which has to be equipped with the module Up/Down Converter R&S UX 4401. This special mode is provided only in simplex, fixed frequency (FF) operation. The converter is designed for stationary or maritime applications and burst transmissions (TDMA channel access), enabling interoperability with several proprietary external modems. The R&S UX 4401 may be integrated in the factory or added by installing the HDR Upgrade Kit R&S UX 4401-U. The converter can be combined with other radio modules such as Guard Receiver R&S ET 4400G, separate Antenna Interface R&S GI 4403, circulator, integrated filter R&S FD 4430 or hopping processor. Therefore it can be added to all R&S M3SR transceiver versions with or without Link11/LinkY/Multitone option. In contrast to the special mode Link11/LinkY/Multitone, the HDR mode does not require an option code. HDR cannot be used in VHF only radios (VHF option installed) or receiver/transmitter only configurations (ET.. / ST..). When the radio is operated in the HDR mode, then the HDR power levels high/medium/low as configured for the internal power amplifier and the external power amplifiers supporting HDR operation are used. External filters like R&S FT 213A or R&S FD 430 are supported as in fixed frequency mode. In the case that the radio is operated in modes other than HDR, the Converter R&S UX 4401 is switched to bypass and the other modules are processing the waveform. Requirements for using HDR: • The radio is a transceiver (XT.. / XD..). • The UHF frequency band can be used (option UHF or full frequency). • The Up/Down Converter R&S UX 4401 is installed.

R&S M3SR Series 4400 supports maritime mode for voice communications based on standards EN-300162-1 and ITU-R M.489-2. The frequency range for operation in maritime mode is 156.000 MHz to 162.125 MHz. Maritime mode works with channels where frequencies for transmit and receive are stored. Depending on where the transceiver is operated, different channel tables and thus frequencies are applicable. The R&S M3SR Series 4400 transceiver is able to automatically adjust to all USA, Canada and International sites that are currently defined. Example: Ch1 with configuration Ship • Table International Channel type: duplex Transmit frequency = 156.050 MHz Receive frequency = 160.650 MHz • Table US Transmit frequency = 156.050 MHz Receive frequency = 156.050 MHz • Table Canada Transmit frequency = 156.050 MHz Receive frequency = 160.650 MHz The VHF maritime mobile service uses both single-frequency and two-frequency channels. For two-frequency channels there is a separation of 4.6 MHz between the transmit frequency and the receive frequency. The transceiver is able to operate on two-frequency channels with manual control (channel type Simplex) and with automatic control (channel type Duplex). With manual control, the two frequencies are selectable with Simplex A and Simplex B. The selected channel and the extension A or B (for simplex) is displayed in the central area of the MMI. Rx-only channels are indicated by a red cross preceding the power bargraph. By definition there are ship and shore stations to which different channels are assigned. The parameter "Ship" or "Shore" can be set in the maintenance menu, depending on whether the transceiver is installed on a ship or in a shore station. When the operator selects a channel, the transceiver will automatically use the correct offset and adjust the frequency in accordance with the applicable frequency list. 3.76 Operating Manual 6172.4399.02 – 01 FÖRSVARETS MATERIELVERK TEKNISK ORDER DRIFT DF SAMBAND 100 023030 R&S M3SR Transceivers Maritime Mode Table 3.7 Dependency between Channel Type and Rx / Tx Frequencies for Ship and Shore Stations Duplex Simplex A Simplex B Ship Shore Rx: higher frequency Rx: lower frequency Tx: lower frequency Tx: higher frequency Rx: lower frequency Rx: lower frequency Tx: lower frequency Tx: lower frequency Rx: higher frequency Rx: higher frequency Tx: higher frequency Tx: higher frequency Further the standard provides high-priority channels: • Channel 13 - for intership navigation safety communications • Channel 16 - for distress alerting / safety communications In order to ensure that no distress call is missed, scan mode can be activated on the R&S M3SR transceiver. Channels 13 and 16 will then be monitored alternately for receive signals. Please note that the function Frequency Exclusion is also effective in maritime mode. If frequency exclusion is used, a red Rx inhibit cross preceding the RSSI bargraph indicates that reception on this channel is not possible, a red Tx inhibit cross preceding the power bargraph indicates that the channel is blocked for transmission. In scan mode no signals can be detected on the channels blocked for reception. To ensure that the high-priority channels are still ready to receive and to send although frequency exclusion is activated, these channels must be removed from the frequency exclusion list. Requirements for using maritime mode: • The radio is a transceiver capable of VHF or full frequency range. • Maritime mode is switched on in menu 1145 Resource Management (Voice tab).

As a result only a limited number of radios is necessary to monitor several channels. The user can enter a start and an end preset number (softkeys BEGIN SCAN and END SCAN) to define a range of preset numbers between 0 and 199, which are successively and cyclically activated when preset scan is started. The Search Time parameter (softkey SEARCH) defines how long the radio shall remain on the selected preset and wait for a signal until the next preset in the list is activated if no signal is detected. Any search time in the range between 1 s and 60 s can be set. The preset scan stops and the radio remains on the currently active preset when a signal above the squelch threshold (or synchronisation sequence in EPM modes) is detected or when the user deliberately deactivates the preset scan by pressing STOP SCAN or leaving the menu. As for manual preset activation, preset scan uses the currently selected preset domain. Selecting the domain for preset scanning is not possible in the PRESET SCAN menu, for this enter the MAINTENANCE menu (softkey ACTIVE DOM). When preset scan has stopped because a busy channel was detected, the parameter Auto Continue (softkey AUTO CONT) determines if and after what time the radio shall automatically continue scanning after the squelch (or synchronisation) has become inactive. The Auto Continue function can be switched off or adjusted between 10 and 60 seconds in 10-s increments. When Auto Continue is off, the radio always remains on the busy preset channel, even if the signal is no longer present. In addition, the preset scan menu shows the last found busy preset channel. This preset can be activated by softkey. If this is done while scanning is in progress, scanning automatically stops and the preset where the squelch (or synchronisation) was detected is activated. For scanning only those presets are considered which are contained in the list of active presets. The radio attempts to activate the preset with its default page. If this fails, it moves on to the next preset. Only the default pages of the presets are activated, switching to another page is not possible. Error messages to indicate that there are no presets in the defined range (gaps) or that a preset could not be activated (e.g. due to invalid parameters in the preset) are not produced in preset scan mode. The radio simply tries to activate the next preset. When preset scan is stopped the currently selected preset remains active. To resume scanning there are two possibilities: Continue Scan or Start Scan. After power-up only Start Scan is possible. If preset scan has already been active since the radio was last powered up, scanning may be resumed with CONTINUE SCAN. For Start Scan and Continue Scan the set parameters are used. If due to a parameter change the next preset to be activated is out of the range defined with BEGIN SCAN and END SCAN, scanning resumes with the preset that was set with BEGIN SCAN, so this is equivalent to Start Scan. When PTT is set while scan is running, the scan process is stopped. 3.84 Operating Manual 6172.4399.02 – 01 FÖRSVARETS MATERIELVERK TEKNISK ORDER DRIFT DF SAMBAND 100 023030 R&S M3SR Transceivers Preset Scan Mode Reception of a guard receiver signal during preset scan is indicated by the SQL G LED on the front panel of the radio, by the G LED on the control unit and by the SQLG indicator in the preset scan menu. When a guard receiver signal is detected, key Menu/Home can be used to change to the main menu and from there to emergency mode to answer the emergency call. Conditions where an ongoing preset scan is stopped: • Detection of a busy channel (squelch or sync) • Use of softkey STOP SCAN or GP2PP command • Leaving the menu • Loss of connection to control unit or remote client which started the scan process • Loss of operational access rights of control unit or remote client which started the scan process • Change of local/remote status of the radio • Change of presets (adding, removing, editing, manually activating a preset or selecting manual operation, changing the preset page, changing the domain) • Use of signal LAST SIGNAL or GB2PP command • Activation of PTT All preset scan parameters are stored, so when the radio is powered down and up again, scanning can be started with the stored parameters. Initial values of scan parameters when the radio is started up the very first time or when the memory is reset: 3.5.4.2 • Begin Scan: first preset in the list, 0 and deactivated if list is empty • End Scan: last preset in the list, 199 and deactivated if list is empty • Search Time: 1 s • Auto Continue: Off Activating Preset Scan In order to activate the preset scan, operational access, i.e. advanced or fixed, or a local session is required.

So it may occur that less presets are scanned than in remote mode. No warnings are produced. When a fill device is connected and load mode becomes active as a result, a running preset scan is stopped. While load mode is active preset scan cannot be started. Scanning is performed with the parameters defined in the preset. Preset parameters which can be temporarily overwritten cannot be changed while scanning is in progress. One possibility, however, is to go to the main menu, thus terminating the preset scan, and to change the modifiable parameters here. Under certain circumstances preset pages will be excluded from scanning due to • missing resources in resource management, e.g. WB Digital • invalid settings in the preset page, e.g. fixed frequency communication mode Voice Ciphered and channel spacing 8.33 kHz • invalid preset pages (displayed in red) In such a case you will get no error message or hint whatsoever. The function Frequency Exclusion also acts upon preset pages with fixed frequency and maritime mode. For such pages 3.90 • scanning will be performed as usual • a red Rx inhibit cross precedes the RSSI bargraph, meaning that the receive signal cannot be detected.

VoIP systems employ session control protocols to control the setup and termination of calls as well as audio codecs that encode speech allowing transmission over an IP network as digital audio via an audio stream. The R&S M3SR radio offers the possibility of digital audio transmission via VoIP for air traffic management (ATM). VoIP for ATM represents an IP communication standard that is adapted for ATM requirements. It is implemented according to EUROCAE ED-137B, volume 1. With R&S M3SR radios VoIP is used for communication with a voice communication system (VCS) (or the R&S GB4000V Audio Unit) over an IP network. The VoIP for ATM standard uses the following protocols: • SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) Application layer protocol for establishing, modifying and terminating multimedia sessions based on RFC 3261 • SDP (Session Description Protocol) Application layer protocol used for defining and negotiation of session parameters that are used for a two-way RTP communication based on RFC 4566 • RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) • Application layer protocol used for transporting audio data via network based on RFC 3550 • R2S Protocol (R2 Signaling Protocol) Protocol which offers a mechanism for “Keep Alive” signaling to control the connection between the VCS and the radio The following preconditions must be fulfilled for VoIP operation of R&S M3SR radios: • Software release 22 • Software: VoIP option loaded • Hardware: platform model 06 Once VoIP communication has been configured (see sect. 3.6.3.12 VoIP Configuration), all voice functions can be operated like in analog mode. This has no effect on the audio output at the front panel and connectors X25/X26 at the rear, i.e. the signals are always provided in analog form. For details on configuration also see sect. 3.6.2.3 RTP Port Configuration and sect. 3.6.2.4 URI Configuration.

This requires that the RX SIP session has been configured correctly. The VoIP Main Audio is equivalent to the Analog Main Audio function. Thus it is available in Voice Plain mode and Maritime mode but not in other special modes. Note that it is not possible to modulate a Guard Audio on the Main Audio signal. If a Guard Receiver R&S ET4400G is integrated in the radio, the VoIP Guard Audio function is additionally available in VoIP mode. This requires that the GRX SIP session has been configured correctly. The VoIP Guard Audio is equivalent to the Analog Guard Audio function as configured in resource management (menu 1145, tab Guard Monitoring). In analog mode, if a separate GRX antenna is used, the Guard Audio can also be received while transmission is in progress. This also applies in VoIP mode. In order to be able to activate a GRX SIP session, the Audio Monitoring Guard function must be set to OFF. For PTT handling (analog PTT, VoIP PTT, analog + VoIP PTT) also see sect. 3.6.3.12 VoIP Configuration. In the following modes the SIP sessions are terminated or rejected: IBIT, local, offline and load mode, that is, whenever the radio is not operational. A GRX SIP session is NOT terminated in local mode! If the radio is reconfigured and then becomes operational again, the SIP sessions are automatically set up as configured. 3.92 Operating Manual 6172.4399.02 – 01 FÖRSVARETS MATERIELVERK TEKNISK ORDER DRIFT R&S M3SR Transceivers DF SAMBAND 100 023030 Maintenance 3.6 Maintenance This chapter describes the maintenance tasks for the radio and for the control unit.

If the individual power levels for the external amplifiers are not enabled, the power settings of the internal PA will be used. There is a risk of overload at the input stages! Configuration of Filter When connecting an external filter make sure that the correct external filter has been selected using the PA/FILTER softkey in menu 1150 Radio Modules, tab Power Amplifier. This activates the selected power settings in the tabs under PA CONFIG. If required, switch filter protection on using the FILTER softkey. Otherwise the connected filter may be destroyed when activating an EPM procedure with frequency hopping, or when powering the radio up in a status where such a procedure is already active. Configure the filter in the radio menu before connecting it. Afterwards the filter should only be connected to the radio when the latter is powered down. Likewise disconnect the filter only when the radio is powered down, and only after powering it up again switch the protection off. If you fail to adhere to this sequence, the filter can be destroyed if an EPM procedure with frequency hopping has already been active on the radio when starting the configuration. To the radio external filters and amplifiers can be connected. Via pins of connector X27 these devices are permanently kept informed of the current frequency of the radio. When an EPM procedure with frequency hopping is used, the current hopping frequency is output at the pins. This information is required by the external amplifiers, whereas some external motortuned filters may be damaged when receiving new frequency commands in a quick succession, as is the case with hopping EPM procedures. To avoid this, the radio must be informed which filter is connected, so if necessary it can deactivate the frequency pins to protect the filter. By pressing the FILTER softkey you can switch filter protection on or off. Reaction of the radio depending on the filter setting: Protection Reaction of the radio Off The frequency pins of connector X27 are always activated.

There will be no Tx Inhibit signal from the filter. The radio then transmits on the selected frequency, indicating a VSWR error, if applicable, and reducing the transmit power. Transmitting outside the specified frequency range is no problem for the filter, since the power will be absorbed or reflected. In this way the radio can keep transmitting also outside the filter range. This opens up the possibility to operate further filters/amplifiers for other frequency ranges which have been wired accordingly (via RF relays). 3.122 Operating Manual 6172.4399.02 – 01 FÖRSVARETS MATERIELVERK TEKNISK ORDER DRIFT DF SAMBAND 100 023030 R&S M3SR Transceivers Radio Modules Platform In the next tab the configuration of the platform is displayed.

The manager contains a so-called Network Management System (NMS) software communicating with an SNMP agent software which is installed on the managed devices. The type of data exchanged between NMS and SNMP agent is defined in a Management Information Base (MIB). Some MIBs have been defined in Requests for Comments (RFCs), a series of Internet-related documents. Beside these standard MIBs, there are many proprietary MIBs. In the course of time SNMP has developped substantially in many aspects, in particular architecture and security. The current level of development of SNMP is version 3.

When this PTT hardware line is retriggered, the radio returns to transmit mode and the timer is reset. Activating another PTT hardware line, which is not configured for the currently active radio mode, has no effect on the PTT timeout functionality. Changing the mode while PTT is set has the same effect as retriggering PTT, where the timer is started anew. • CBIT Message for PTT Timeout The moment the timer monitoring the PTT hardware lines runs into the configured timeout, a CBIT message is created. It is displayed in the MMI, signalled via GB2PP and recorded in the error log. • Reconfiguration while PTT is active If the radio is reconfigured while PTT is active, the currently used PTT hardware line is handled as if retriggered, i.e. the timer is started anew with the new values. 3.148 Operating Manual 6172.4399.02 – 01 FÖRSVARETS MATERIELVERK TEKNISK ORDER DRIFT R&S M3SR Transceivers 3.6.3.11 DF SAMBAND 100 023030 Frequency Exclusion Frequency Exclusion Frequency exclusion only works in Fixed Frequency and Maritime mode, not in HDR, Link11/ Multitone or EPM modes.
