Required Power Supply Danger of electric shock!
WARNING
The receiver meets the requirements for Safety Class I in accordance with DIN EN 61010-1/IEC 61010-1, e.g. all metal parts that can be touched or accessed without removing the enclosure are connected to the protective ground of the power supply network. When connecting the instrument to the AC power supply, always use a power cable with thermal connector and a socket with earthing contact. Danger of electric shock!
WARNING
The radio contains a two-pole or neutral-conductor fuse. This means that some parts of the radio will continue to be energized after the fuse has been tripped. When replacing the fuse, always disconnect the radio from the AC power supply. Do not touch any live parts when performing service and maintenance on the radio while the radio is switched on (by qualified service personnel only).
External DC Power Supply\\External DC power supply "Name".doc
Note: To ensure that the radio works properly, it is required to supply an earthing contact. AC voltage
The receiver operates on an AC voltage. When the receiver is connected to the AC line, it automatically sets itself to the correct voltage (AC voltage 115 V/230 V). There is no need to set the voltage manually or change the fuse.
DC voltage
The receiver may also be powered by an external battery (28 V DC). An automatic switchover facility integrated in the radio provides for automatic standby switchover in case primary power fails. Note: See chapter 2.4 for basic cabling and further information.

Function of the R&S EU 4200C receiver
The receiver R&S EU 4200C contains the R&S EU 4250 receiver module, which is powered by the R&S IN 4210 power supply unit.
Front panel control unit
The front panel control unit A8 with LCD and keyboard A9 make local control of the radio possible on a lab bench or for activities such as installation and maintenance. You can audio-monitor to the demodulated analog voice in the receiver module at any time by using the built-in loudspeaker or headphone. You can control the volume by means of the arrow keys on the front panel.
USB interface
You can configure and make basic settings for the radio via the USB interface on the front panel. In addition you can download software of all firmware components via the USB. The main backplane A6 connects the receiver module, MMI board A8, FAN and power supply. The USB board A7 contains a USB hub for receiver’s and MMI’s USB interface controller.
Power supply
The main fan is controlled and monitored by the control unit A8. The radio can be powered by AC and/or DC voltage. If the AC source fails, the radio automatically switches to the DC source.
Display
LEDs indicate the current operating state at all times. You can display the operating settings, radio configuration, analog measurement values and status in detail on an eight-row LCD.
Audio interface
On the system side the 600 ohm audio interface “RX Audio Basic X10” is connected to the rear panel and the squelch state can be signalled here via a contact. Remote control is performed as standard via the Ethernet − LAN interface “Ethernet − LAN Remote Control X9” or the RS-485 ‘’RX Audio Extended X11’’ using the powerful R&S remote-control protocol GB2PP.
Main and standby function
For redundant system installations with 1:1 switchover, the main and standby radios are connected with each other via hardware contacts. This allows a quick switchover without any delay in the event of a failure.
Extended DSUB interface
The 15-contact extended DSUB interface “RX Audio Extended X11“ provides discrete digital control contacts as well as the analog output for RSSI receive signal strength.
Receive antenna
The receive antenna is connected to the BNC input "RX Input X8". The receiver consists of the analog RF board A3 with its VCO/synthesizer and 600 ohm audio interfaces as well as the digital interface module A5 with the main VCXO/clock processing unit, DSP, LAN and USB controller. The received signal is mixed and converted to the first intermediate frequency (IF). The remaining processing is performed digitally, where the various channel spacings 8.33 kHz/25 kHz and modulation schemes AM and ACARS are processed via the software.
Main TCXO
The main TCXO on the A6 backplane board serves as the reference for the radio and can be easily adjusted via the USB interface.

Operation
Operation can be performed locally on the built-in front panel control unit or remotely via the Ethernet − LAN or RS-485 interfaces. Operational parameters such as setting the frequency, changing the channel spacing or activating presets can be controlled. In addition the current status information and indications such as GO, ACTIVE, SQ can be received from the receiver and displayed.
Maintenance
Maintenance status parameters can be read out over USB, Ethernet − LAN or RS-485 interfaces, and the built-in front panel control unit. The receiver delivers the result of the continuous built-in test (CBIT) and the event list, which saves all events with the time information of occurrence. Maintenance activities can be performed and controlled via the built-in front panel control unit and remotely via Ethernet − LAN or RS-485 interfaces. The receiver provides commands for switching over from main to standby (and vice versa). In addition the device can be reset or the real time clock (RTC) can be initialized locally or remotely.
Performance values
Performance values can be read out over the built-in front panel control unit or over the Ethernet − LAN or RS-485 interfaces. Parameters such as temperatures, voltages, received signal strength (RSSI) and audio level can be measured.
Configuration
Configuration of the receiver can be performed with the Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200, which runs on a standard PC or laptop. Connected via service PC, the radio provides easy and fast configuration of the radio basic parameters such as IP address, power audio levels and preset pages. The configuration files can be saved and loaded to the receiver. The configuration process is very convenient and allows you to quickly configure an entire rack. In case of service, the defective radio can be “cloned” and the parameters loaded to a replacement radio.
Preset loading
Up to 200 preset pages can be loaded via USB, Ethernet − LAN or RS-485 interfaces.
Inventory
All hardware and software components can be read out on all USB, Ethernet − LAN or RS-485 interfaces and are visible on the built-in display.
Software update
The R&S DS 4200 software is delivered as a CD ROM and contains all software components, which are automatically loaded to the radio modules via the USB interface. The Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 provides a software download manager, crosschecks the hardware and software and ensures a proper software download.

Meaning of Parameters
Default setting description\Default setting description "Radio".doc
RX Audio Level
This parameter refers to the audio output of the AM receiver (connector X10.2/3). With the default setting of 0 dBm, an effective level of 775 mV is applied at 60 % AM modulation of the current receive signal. The output can be configured from −30 dBm to + 10 dBm in accordance with the line infrastructure.
S/N Squelch Threshold
The threshold value for the signal to noise (S/N) ratio can be set for the squelch. If the squelch is activated, the RX audio output is muted until an RF receive signal is applied. Receive signals with sufficient audio S/N ratio are output at the receiver output. The S/N threshold can be set in a range between 6 dB and 20 dB.
RSSI Squelch Threshold
The RSSI threshold is based on the received signal level at the receiver’s input. The RSSI threshold can be set in a range between 1 μV and 50 μV.
S/N RSSI Logical Operation
It is possible to combine the S/N-squelch and RSSI-squelch. By default both mechanism are “OR” conjunct. The squelch opens the audio path if only one condition is fulfilled. In case of the “AND” conjunction both thresholds must be exceeded in order to open the audio path. Note: For offset reception it is recommended to configure the conjunction type to “OR”.
RX Audio AGC
The automatic gain control in the AM demodulator can be switched on and off. It ensures that the already demodulated signal is compensated for. In the range from 30 % to 90 % of the modulation depth, the signal (RX Audio) remains constant.
ACARS Data Mode
With this parameter the radio can be configured for voice (disabled) or ACARS data operation (enabled) (2400 Bps). The Voice setting is optimized for voice processing and squelch muting. The ACARS is setting available for receiving ACARS data. In this case a faster RF front-end control is in action. The attack and decay time is in accordance with the ETSI EN 300676 standard. If the radio is operating in ACARS data mode, only the 25 kHz spacing can be used and the parameter RX Audio AGC must be deactivated.
Select Audio Interface
This parameter is used to select the audio interface of the radio. It the Analog Audio (0) is selected, the RX Audio Basic interface X10 is used. If the E1 (1) is selected, the E1 – Communication Data interface X13 (RX) is used. For more information on E1 interface please refer to chapter 3.12 Audio Data via E1 Interface.
RX Input Sensitivity
There are two settings for the sensitivity of the receiver: The Low Distortion (LD) setting is recommended for strong noise signals at the antenna input. It reduces sensitivity, and thus improves immunity. The Low Noise (LN) setting increases the sensitivity, and thus improves the reception of weak signals.

Set/Get Values for Preset Page
200 preset pages can be stored in the radio and called up. Each contains the frequency, offset (insignificant for RX module) and spacing parameters. These parameters can be set for each preset page.
Installation Info
Information (up to 20 characters) can be entered to describe the radio more precisely.
Location Info
Only the first 20 characters entered by using the R&S ZS 4200 appear on the radio display.
IP Address
An IP address must be assigned for each radio module, which allows each module to be uniquely identified and operated in remote operating mode. Additionally, specifying the netmask and the gateway makes it possible to work within different subnets via a router.
ACL (Access Control List)
Here you can enter the IP addresses of the remote control systems or clients that are allowed to access the radio. This protects the radio against unwanted/unknown accesses. If the list is blank (default), then any client with any IP address can access to the radio. Note: If the SNMP protocol is used, it is necessary to add the internal IP address 127.0.0.1 or to leave the ACL empty.
RX RS-485 Logic Address
An address between 1 and 9999 must be assigned to each radio module. The module is addressed on the RS-485 bus under this logical address.
RS-485 Baud Rate
The baud rate of the radio can be set. The baud rate set for the radio (RS-485 interface) must match the baud rate of the remote control computer.
BSS Enable
The parameter is used to enable or disable the Best Signal Selection functionality. For more information please refer to chapter 3.11 Best Signal Selection.
Main/Standby Type
The main/standby type declares if a radio should start up as an active main radio or as an inactive standby radio. If the common AC- or DC-supply of a main/standby installation is powered up, then the radio will boot accordingly. Note: The parameter Main/Standby Type is also used for the Best Signal Selection if this functionality is enabled.
Line Interface in Local Mode
In local mode, the rear and front panel audio inputs operate in parallel (default). The rear panel audio line interface (including SQ contact and audio output) can be disabled for the local mode. This allows independent use of the radio for a service technician where unwanted SQ indication or line output must be prevented.
Local Mode
You can disable the LOC button on the radio to prevent the radio from being switched from remote mode to local mode.
Local Mode Timeout
Local mode will be quit automatically if there is no further activity on the front-panel radio keys. Timeout can be set between 60 s and 900 s, or disabled.
Single Channel
Fixed frequency cannot be changed. Frequency must be configured before activating this function.

Configuring with the R&S ZS 4200
R&S EU 4200C
Motor Tuned Telsa Filter
It is possible to connect an external motor tuned Telsa filter to the radio. In order to activate RS-422 interface flow control, the configuration must be enabled. The filter has to be connected to X11. Note: The RS-485 interface will be deactivated when the external motor tuned Telsa filter is used. Note: Enabling the external motor tuned Telsa filter will limit the frequency range of the radio to the frequency range of the filter.
Frequency Blocking Ranges
Up to eight frequency blocking ranges can be defined. The device will refuse any set frequency command done by the MMI local operation or via remote control which is within these frequency blocking ranges. The configured frequency blocking ranges have to fit the radio's frequency range from 112 MHz to 155.991666 MHz.
SQ/RSSI Signaling
SQ can be indicated by a tone with a specified frequency that is present within AF signal. If the parameter is on, the tone is generated when SQ is open. A part of AF signal near the SQ tone frequency is suppressed by a notch filter. The frequency of the SQ tone is 2440 Hz. An alternative setting is RSSI signaling. One of four tones within AF range 3 kHz to 3.4 kHz is generated depending on received signal strength. An appropriate notch filter is used in order to suppress received AF signal in the affected AF range.
SQ Signaling Frequency
The frequency of the SQ tone is variable within a specified range.
SQ/RSSI Signaling Level
The level of the SQ tone generator is variable within specified range and is related to nominal audio signal level set by “RX Audio Level”.
RSSI Output
RSSI analog output can provide various linear curves depending on received signal strength. Curve “RS Standard” is predefined, curve “User defined“ has variable parameters.
RSSI Output Curve Slope
RSSI analog output: Curve ”User defined” has the slope configurable.
RSSI Output Curve Offset
RSSI analog output: Curve ”User defined” has the offset configurable.
RSSI Output Curve Min. Voltage
RSSI analog output: Curve ”User defined” has the minimum output voltage limit configurable.
RSSI Output Curve Max. Voltage
RSSI analog output: Curve ”User defined” has the maximum output voltage limit configurable.

Enable SNMP
The parameter is used to enable and disable the SNMP functionality of the radio on the LAN interface. If the parameter is set to "Disable", the SNMP functionality is disabled and only GB2PP protocol is supported via LAN. If the parameter is set to "Enable", only the SNMP protocol is supported. Note: Parallel usage of the SNMP and GB2PP is not supported. Note: For a proper use of the SNMP protocol, it is necessary to update the access control list (ACL).
DC-Battery Supervision
The voltage during battery operation can be monitored. If the voltage is too low, two responses in the radio can be triggered. The Warning setting generates the CBIT warning 401, which is output via the connected remote system. The NOGO setting sets the TEST_OC signal at the output (connector X10.4) and initiates a switchover to the standby radio. This setting is recommended if, for example, two separate DC networks are used for the main and standby radios.
AC-Main Supervision
The voltage during network operation can be monitored. If the voltage is too low, two responses in the radio can be triggered: The warning setting generates the CBIT warning 402, which is output via the connected remote system. The NOGO setting sets the TEST_OC signal at the output (connector X10.4) and initiates a switchover to the standby radio. This setting is recommended if, for example, two separate AC networks are used for the main and standby radios. Note: If the AC-Main fails, operation automatically switches to the standby radio. Otherwise the DC battery of the main radio would be unnecessarily discharged.
Local Mode Warning
The radio can be configured in such a way that pressing the LOC button on the radio generates the CBIT warning 415, which is output via the connected remote system.
USB Connect Warning
The radio can be configured in such a way that a USB access via a service PC generates the CBIT warning 414, which is output via the connected remote system.
PSU Fan Warning
The rotation of the power supply fan is internally monitored and will cause a warning if the fun is not running as expected. The NOGO warning PSU fan 201 will be sent to the connected remote control system if the power supply fan is not working well. The warning can be configured as NOGO warning in order to request a main/standby over switch via TEST_OC X10.4.
Main Fan Warning
The rotation of the main fan is internally monitored and will cause a NOGO warning if the fun is not running as expected. The NOGO warning main fan 103 will be sent to the connected remote control system if the main fan of the radio is not working well. The warning can be configured as NOGO warning in order to request a main/standby over switch via TEST_OC X10.4.

Inactive Warning
The radio can be configured in such a way that if the radio is inactive, it generates the CBIT Warning 101 which is output via the remote system connected.
User Contact Warning
The radio can be configured in such a way that a warning will be generated if the user contact X11.15 is high. The USER CONTACT WARNING 430 will be sent to the remote control system.
E1 RAI Warning
The transmission on the E1 interface is monitored. If errors are occurring on the transmission system, they are indicated with an alarm indication (RAI). The NOGO warning E1 RAI (CBIT 0437) will be sent to the connected remote control system if the remote alarm (RAI) is indicated. The warning can be configured as NOGO warning in order to request a main/standby switchover via the TEST_OC X10.4.
E1 CRC4 ERROR Warning
The bit error rate in the E1 interface is monitored. If bit errors are occurring, they are indicated with an excessive bit error rate (CRC4) CBIT. The NOGO warning E1 CRC4 ERROR (CBIT 0438) will be sent to the connected remote control system if the excessive bit error rate (CRC4) is indicated. The warning can be configured as NOGO warning in order to request a main/standby switchover via the TEST_OC X10.4.

LOC Key
Function on radio
The LOC key enables you to switch between local and remote mode at any time independently of the current menu. The local mode has priority over remote accesses, i.e. a remote fixed session over the Ethernet − LAN or RS-485 interfaces will automatically be terminated if you select local mode by pressing this key. If you press the key a second time, local mode will be terminated, at which point a remote client must re-initiate the session to the device (or to the modules).
Deactivation
You can deactivate the LOC key from the service PC (USB configuration), thus blocking local mode altogether (protection from improper use).
Key operation messages
By using the service PC (USB), you can configure whether a local access leads to a warning message or not. The local mode state would then be reflected in the CBIT status. In addition, the start and end of the local mode will be stored in the event log together with time information. If applicable, this information will also be sent to the fault management system.

Cross-connect the sum test outputs (TEST-OC) and *OFF (X10) inputs of the two devices by using the cabling described in Fig. 3.56. Use the R&S ZS 4200 to configure one of the two devices as “Main” (A=0) and the other one as “Standby” (B=1) unit. The R&S ZS 4200 has to be used also for the NOGO configuration. The following settings have to be done in the local mode or via the remote control system. Both radios have to be set to "AUTO" via the remote control command "MS_AC" or they could be configured to activation state "ON" in the local mode (see Fig. 3.59). After leaving the local mode, the device will automatically switch to the "AUTO" mode and will be ready for the main/standby switchover (see Fig. 3.60). In this case, input *OFF will be activated (X10.7).
Note: The parameter Main/Standby Type is also used for the Best Signal Selection if this functionality is enabled.
Note: If one radio is in local mode while the other one is in remote mode, then the local operated radio is active and the second one is inactive. Constellation remains even when the local mode is left. The main/standby switchover capability of the radio pair is now available in remote mode or non-controlled mode.

Behavior at Remote Control
This chapter
When the command "MS_GO" was sent via remote control, the radio switches to ACTIVE state irrespective of the previous state. Refering to the settings mentioned above, the radio which got this command becomes active and the partner device (cross-connected via X10) becomes inactive. The "MS_GO" command is ignored by the radio if at least one of its modules is set to OFF state. A radio can be set to OFF or to AUTO state using the "MS_AC" command. When the command "MS_AC" with the parameter OFF was sent via remote control, the radio switches to INACTIVE state irrespective of the previous state. The partner device (cross-connected via X10) gets ACTIVE if it is in AUTO state. There are different ways to switch between the radio states. Using the remote control mode, it is possible to send the "MS_GO" or "MS_AC" command to toggle the radio state. In the manual mode, it is possible to press the "LOC" button to get the radio into the inactive state. After leaving the local mode, the radio will keep this state. Note: More details about the Main/Standby and remote control are provided in the LAN or RS-485-GB2PP Interface Control Document available on demand from Rohde & Schwarz (Order No. 6144.7497.01).

Behavior in Case of Device Errors
This chapter
If an error or NOGO warning occurs on the "Main" radio, the "Standby" radio will be activated via the TEST_OC line. The "Standby" device will become active and switches the "Main" radio to inactive by serving the cross-connected *OFF line. The device pair is now settled in a stable state. Even if an error or NOGO warning disappears on the inactive "Main" radio, the "Standby" radio will stay active. In the case that there will be an error on the active "Standby" device, a switchover to the "Main" radio could be done.

Introduction/Overview
Introduction/ Overview
To reduce the number of lines, in particular for transmitting signals over long distances, the use of the bidirectional in-band technique via a 2-pair AF/telephone line per radio unit (receiver, transmitter, or transceiver) is recommended. AF carriers are modulated with control and signaling information and inserted in-band without affecting the speech quality. The R&S Series 4200 radios support a special audio in-band technique. This in-band technique is used to enable radio functions via signalization on the audio channel. The radios of the R&S Series 4200 support the following in-band functions:
3.8.2
•
Signaling of SQ on receiver side
•
Audio in-band tones for RSSI signaling on receiver side
Support and Configuration of In-Band Signaling
Description
To setup the in-band signaling functionality, it is necessary to configure various parameters with the Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 via the USB (see also chapter 3.3 Configuring with the R&S ZS 4200). Note: The operation of the Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 is described in detail in the corresponding operating manual.
3.8.2.1
In-Band Signaling of SQ with Different Audio Tones
Description
The radios support two different types of in-band signaling on the receiving side. These are SQ and RSSI. If SQ is selected within the parameter SQ/RSSI Signaling, the squelch can be signalled via the RX audio channel with the tones of 1225 Hz, 2040 Hz, 2440 Hz, 2970 Hz or 3300 Hz. The audio frequency has to be selected with the parameter SQ Signaling Frequency. In addition to the in-band signaling selection there has to be done a configuration of the squelch tone level relating to the RX audio level. This is done via the parameter SQ/RSSI Signaling Level.

Support of Audio In-Band Tones for RSSI Signaling
Description
The radios support two different types of in-band signaling on the receiving side. These are SQ and RSSI. If RSSI is selected within the parameter SQ/RSSI Signaling, the RSSI in-band signaling via audio frequencies is used.
RSSI Tones Specification
Depending on the signal quality, the radio transmits four different frequencies via the in-band audio channel (X10.2/X10.3) (see Fig. 3.64 RSSI signal quality).
RSSI Signaling Level
In addition to the RSSI signaling selection, there has to be done a configuration of the tone level relating to the audio level. This is done via the parameter SQ/RSSI Signaling Level. 3390 Hz (good quality)
RSSI > 30 uV
3300 Hz (middle quality)
6uV < RSSI < 30 uV
3210 Hz (bad quality)
Threshold1 is exceeded and RSSI < 6 uV
3180 Hz (no signal)
Threshold1 is not exceeded Fig. 3.64
RSSI signal quality
Note: The RSSI signaling frequency is kept constant during one transmission cycle. Note: The value for Threshold1 has to be configured via the parameter “RSSI Squelch Threshold”.

Description
The R&S Series 4200 radios support a configurable analogue RSSI output (X11.8). The output characteristic will be described in this chapter.
RSSI Output Pin
The received signal strength (RSSI) can be indicated as an analogue voltage via the RSSI output pin (X11.8) on the rear side of the radio.
RSSI Output Type
If the received signal strength (RSSI) is selected as in-band signaling type via SQ/RSSI Signaling (see also chapter 3.8 In-Band Signaling), the RSSI output pin characteristic can be configured with the parameter RSSI Output in two different modes: •
“RS Standard” type with a linear dependency of the receiving signal strength predefined by the manufacturer (see Fig. 3.66 RSSI output type − RS Standard)
•
“User defined” type with variable user defined parameter settings to adapt the radio behavior to customer’s needs (see Fig. 3.67 RSSI output type − User defined)
Note: After configuration of the RSSI Output, the radio has to be rebooted. This is done after leaving the interactive mode using the Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200. RS Standard
Fig. 3.66
RSSI output type − RS Standard
The RSSI output type “RS Standard” has a linear characteristic with the slope of 38.5 mV/dB and offset of 4620 mV @ 0 dBm (see Fig. 3.66 RSSI output type − RS Standard).
3.73

RSSI Output Configuration
User defined
Fig. 3.67
RSSI output type − User defined
The “User defined” configuration allows configuring the output characteristic of the RSSI indication within the following parameters (see Fig. 3.66 RSSI output type − RS Standard): •
Offset of the output level (RSSI Output Curve Offset)
•
Slope of the output level (RSSI Output Curve Slope)
•
Minimum output level (RSSI Output Minimum Voltage)
•
Maximum output level (RSSI Output Maximum Voltage)
Note: The adjustment of the RSSI output curve parameters does not require rebooting the radio. The parameters will be set directly after they are changed using the Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200. Note: Changes done on the RSSI configuration via the Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 will be valid only for the “User defined” setting even if the “RS Standard” configuration is selected.

Checking the LED State
Introduction
The LEDs on the front panel of the radio display the status of various settings and operating modes. If the LEDs AC, DC, GO or Vop are not illuminated, there are a number of possible reasons.
Fig. 4.1 Indication LED AC not illuminated
Checking the LED state
Possible cause of fault With AC operation only: If the secondary voltage of approx. 28 V is displayed (see chapter 3.4.7.4.2), LED AC is defective With AC/DC operation only: Mains connector not plugged in, no mains voltage available Fuse F1 or F2 in AC line input defective
LED DC not illuminated
6145.5223.12.01
With AC/DC operation only: Battery connector not plugged in or no DC voltage available (or reversed polarities) Fuse F3 in DC line input defective

Check CBIT status Check NOGO configuration via service PC Check radio environment (antenna, DC voltage)
LED Vop not illuminated
Radio set to "OFF" (standby operation). Display shows INACT in standard operating display.
Activate radio using proper remote control command (see chapter 6.3.1.5) or switchover to active mode locally (see chapter 3.4.7.2) Check hardware Input *OFF on connector X10.7 if a contact to ground is applied. Activate radio using proper remote control command or switch over to active mode locally.
Hardware input *OFF on rear panel connector X10.7 is connected to ground. Radio was switched off remotely via remote control command or locally via front panel of the radio.
4.1.3
Checking the CBIT State
Displayed warnings and/or error messages
For detection of device and system failures, continuous built-in test (CBIT) functions are implemented in the equipment.
The CBIT starts directly after switching on the receiver.
Warnings and/or error messages produced during ongoing operation are displayed in the CBIT STATUS menu (see chapter 3.4.7.5). When malfunctions (warning or error message) are detected, the failure is signalled to the connected remote control unit. CBIT always indicates the existing state, which means that as long as a message is being indicated by CBIT, this problem persists.

Scheduled Maintenance
Scheduled maintenance\Scheduled maintenance "Radio".doc
Inspecting the air intake
Inspect the air intake on the front panel for dust build-up and clean it if necessary. The inspection interval depends on the environmental conditions under which the receiver is operated. Note: Due to the long service life of the fan, no regular maintenance is required here besides cleaning. The speed of the fan is monitored by means of the continuous built-in test (CBIT), and a warning is promptly generated (see chapter 4.2).
TCXO adjustment
Due to the natural aging of the crystal oscillator (TCXO), it is advisable to check the frequency offset after the first year of operation and readjust it if necessary. We recommend a further adjustment interval of 3 years in order to ensure the specified frequency accuracy.

Cleaning
Measure the deviation of the intermediate frequency using a radio communication service monitor, e.g. the R&S CMS 54, and adjust the TCXO value using the Service & Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 (see chapter 3.3). Connect the audio output signals X10.2 and X10.3 to the radio comunication monitor. Automatic test procedure on the R&S CMS radio communication service monitor should be used in order to check the intermediate filter bandwidth and deviation of the center frequency.
Note: The TCXO adjustment requires an R&S CMS 54 (Id. No. 0840.0009.04) with option CMS-B1 (Id. No. 0840.9406.02) or CMS-B2 (Id. No. 1001.6809.02). Nominal value Deviation of intermediate frequency Δf ≤ ±0.5 ppm (corresponds to ± 60 Hz at 120 MHz).

Note: More detailed information is provided by the LAN and RS-485GB2PP Interface Control Document, available on demand from Rohde & Schwarz (Order No. 6144.7497.01). “TRAP” is not supported in RS-485. Note: If more than one of the commands TR, SP, PP is sent in sequence, the first command is acknowledged typically within 200 ms. The following commands will be acknowledged later. When sending several commands, it is recommended to send a new command only after the acknowledgement/ command response of the previous command has been received.
