8 SYSTEM VERIFICATION PROCEDURE
8.1 GENERAL
This section contains a system checkout procedure to verify the operation of the RT-
7000 PMR installation. The following procedures are intended to provide sufficient
exercising of the system configuration to assure that system parameter
selection/control and transmit/receive functions are operating properly.
8.2 SYSTEM CHECKOUT
8.2.A General
It is absolutely essential that the installer read and understand the operation and
programming capabilities of the RT-7000 PMR as documented in the RT-7000 PMR
Operator’s Manual 150-071770 before attempting to test the installation.
The RT-7000 PMR must be programmed with configuration information BEFORE it will
properly communicate with any transceivers. This programming can be performed
with a PC (Cobham Installation Configuration Tool Software (P/N 320-171803-XX) and
cable P/N 129-271603-XX).
8.2.B Checkout Setup
In order to perform system checkout procedures the installer must have a means by
which to transmit to and receive with the RT-7000 PMR. While basic TX/RX tests can
be performed to verify system operation, the manufacturer recommends using
calibrated test equipment that will be able to determine the system quality. To fully
verify the RT-7000 PMR system is functioning properly the following equipment is
required:
Radio Service Monitor (communications analyzer) capable of AM/FM Modes of
operation from 29.7 to 960 MHz.
1 kHz Sinusoidal source capable of delivering .25 VRMS into a 150 Ohm load.
(Most Radio Service Monitors can perform this function.)
Thru-line Watt meter with 25 watt slugs that can handle 29.7 to 960 MHz).
DC/AC Volt Meter
Low Ohmage Resistance Meter capable of reading milli-Ohm levels.

Control Number (ECCN) EAR99. When exporting, diversion contrary to U.S. law is prohibited.
