Introduction This chapter outlines precautions and preparations necessary before use of the measurement system. Also covered in this chapter is the unpacking and inspecting of the individual pieces and the requirements placed on the external power supply and external computer.

Precautions Shock Hazard

When replacing the fuse in the automotive adapter cord, be sure to use an exact replacement with the correct rating and type.

Static Sensitive Components This unit includes integral static discharge protection devices. However, as with any electronic equipment, care should be taken not to touch connector pins directly. There are no user serviceable components inside the basic chassis. Plug in modules are field replaceable.

Unpacking and Inspecting All equipment is packaged in a single shock and vibration protected enclosure. Examine the carton for signs of damage. If carton appears to be damaged, contact the transportation agent immediately. Open the carton and carefully remove each item. Check all items received against the packing slip. Examine each item for physical damage, and make a note of any damages observed. If any equipment or manuals are missing, contact Andrew Corporation immediately at 800-800-7465.

WARNING: USE ONLY THE ANDREW APPROVED POWER. USE OF ANY OTHER SUPPLY MAY CAUSE IRREPARABLE DAMAGE OR INJURY. ANY USE OF NON-AUTHORIZED SUPPLIES WILL IMMEDIATELY VOID THE WARRANTY.



Power Requirements The chassis is powered by 10 to 16 VDC. AC operation is achieved by using the optional AC power supply. The AC power supply is designed to work with 120 or 240VAC 50/60Hz. For other voltages or line frequencies contact Andrew Corporation for the correct supply.

The standard AC supply is rated at 130 Watts. Actual power requirements will vary depending on the number of modules in use.

DC operation can be achieved by connection to a vehicle 12-volt system. The following table is provided to budget the system current requirements for various configurations.

Platform Configuration/Module 12 VDC Current

Requirement Basic system w/ System Controller and GPS/Timebase

1.3A

Communications Interface w/ no phones attached 0.5A Communications Interface w/ 1 phone attached 0.7A Communications Interface w/ 2 phones attached 1.0 A RX/RSSI Decoder 0.5A Digital Receiver 1.7A GPS/Timebase 0.9A System Controller 0.5A

The estimates given for the Communications Interface Modules with phones assume a worst-case phone keyed and battery charging condition. If phone batteries are charged or not present, the maximum current requirement for a Communications Interface Module is significantly less.

Cigarette Lighter Adapter A cigarette lighter adapter accessory is available to provide a low power vehicle DC power connection. The current rating (5 amps) for this type of connection and the current requirement for the chassis configuration should be checked prior to power up. The DC loss through this type of connection will vary greatly depending on the cleanliness of the connection.

Caution: Excessive loss can cause connection heating and voltage drops below 10 volts. This can result in intermittent operation.



DC Power Cable The chassis is shipped with a DC cable, fuse holder, and fuse. The user must crimp the assembly together. A crimp tool is required for connecting the terminals to the wire. This tool can be purchased at most automotive stores or at your local Radio Shack.

Connect one side of the fuse holder to the Red wire of the Invex3G DC cable and connect the other side of the fuse holder to a 10-gauge wire connected directly to the vehicle’s positive battery terminal. Connect the black wire of the DC cable to a good vehicle grounding location.

Caution: Once your wiring is complete, test the DC power connector with a voltmeter to confirm that Pin 2 is positive with respect to Pin 9 BEFORE connecting the cable to the Invex3G chassis.

Remote Control of Chassis Power Remote control of the Invex3G chassis power is possible by utilizing an auxiliary connector on the power supply cable. The cable includes a remote switch plug (Molex 43640 – 0201).

The user must supply the mating cable assembly, SPST switch, and Molex 43645-0200 plug with Molex 43030-0009 female terminals. The parts may be ordered from Digikey using the following part numbers:



Molex Plug – Digikey part number – WM1845-ND Molex Terminals - Digikey part number – WM1839-ND

20-gauge wire is required for the mating cable assembly. The contacts for the switch are normally open. Closing the contacts will turn on the chassis.

Note: Either the chassis’s power switch or the remote power switch will turn on the chassis. The chassis power switch must be in the off position in order to control the unit with the remote switch. Likewise, the remote power switch must be in the off position to control the power with the chassis’s power switch.

Introduction

This chapter outlines the features of the basic chassis used to house and connect application specific modules.

The chassis is one of the basic building blocks for the measurement products system. The system consists of a set of plug-in modules connected by a high-speed backplane. This method of construction is extremely flexible and allows for the realization of a variety of electronic systems. Protection against obsolescence is inherent, since modules can be individually upgraded as technology evolves, without affecting other modules.



Figure 3.1 is a generalized block diagram of the chassis system.

Figure 3.9



Backplane

The Invex3G backplane serves as the interconnection method for all Invex3G modules. It is oriented vertically at the rear of the chassis. Modules plug into the backplane from the front of the chassis.

The backplane provides connections for three main functions:

• Module to System Controller communications • Module to module communications • Module to module timing synchronization • Power distribution • 9.6 MHz reference signal distribution • High speed bus terminations

The module connectors are 7-row x 22 column, 2mm Hard Metric AMP Z-Pack connectors used for Compact PCI P1. The power connectors are AMP Power Taps. All connectors are press-fit types. This enables better current transfer to the power and ground planes resulting from the elimination of thermal relief pads, and improves manufacturing yields since solder bridges cannot form.

DC/DC Converter

The DC/DC Converter provides regulated system voltages from a nominal +13.6 VDC (10V-16V) input. It is mounted on the inside back panel of the chassis. Short wires connect the power supply to the backplane. The backplane in turn distributes power to the various modules. The voltage outputs provided by this unit are 13.6 volts (unregulated), 3.3 volts, 5 volts, and 6.5 volts.

The +13.6 V input is fused, filtered, transient protected, and switched before distribution on the backplane. The fan is also powered from this output. The main 3.3 volt DC/DC converter provides the majority of the required unit power and is attached to a heat sink on the back panel. The 5 volt and 6.5 volt outputs are used for special low current applications. See the General Chassis Specification Table on page 23 for maximum power ratings.

A PIC processor is incorporated on the converter assembly to provide the following supervisory functions:

Power Supply Turn on Conditions

The power supply will NOT turn on if: Input voltage > 16 Volts Input voltage < 10 Volts



If the supply last turned off due to low input voltage, it will not turn back on until the input voltage is greater than or equal to 12 volts, or a power switch is toggled on.

See the Serious Error and Restart topic below for other turn on limitations.

Power Supply Emergency Turn off Conditions Input voltage > 18 Volts Input voltage < 9.0 Volts 3.3 output voltage < 2.5 Volts (-25%) 5.2 output voltage < 3.9 Volts (-25%) 3.3 output voltage > 4.0 Volts (+20%) 5.2 output voltage > 6.25 Volts (+20%) 6.5 output voltage > 7.44 Volts (+15%)

Power Supply Warning Conditions The power supply will issue a warning (while turned on) if: Input current > supply capacity (warning every 1 second) Input voltage < 10.5 Volts (warning every 1 second) Input voltage > 16.0 Volts (warning every 1 second)

Power Supply Auto Shutdown Conditions Auto shutdown will be initiated if: Input voltage < 9.5 Volts Input voltage > 17.0 Volts

Power Supply Serious Error Conditions and Restarting Once a serious error such as any of the emergency turn off conditions

(other than for low voltage) occurs, the supply will NOT automatically turn back on. The Power must be cycled or a power switch (main or remote) must be switched off then on.



Power Supply Fan Function

Invex3G power supplies with newer flash loads are configured by the Invex3G application software when a connection is completed to the chassis by the software. This causes a change in chassis fan speed compared to older versions of the power supply. When the Invex3G chassis is first powered on, the fans will run at full speed. Once a connection to the Invex3G software application is completed the fans will function according to the following thresholds:

o Fans on at 35 degrees Celsius o Fans off at 30 degrees Celsius

Note: Fans may shutdown when a connection to the Invex3G application software is completed. This is normal, and the fans will restart when internal chassis temperature reaches 35 degrees C.

System Controller Module

General Description

The System Controller enables PC to module communication, module-to-module communication, and handles general system control functions. It is composed of two independent processor blocks – the main CPU (MPC860T @ 50MHz) and a high-speed message router processor (TMS320LC548 DSP @ 20MHz). The main CPU handles the PC communications interface (10/100BASE-T) as well as acting as a general-purpose system controller. The CPU cannot access the backplane bus directly. Instead, it connects to the message router processor via a shared memory (Dual-port RAM) and the message router connects to the backplane bus via buffers. The message router views the CPU and modules as equivalent logical ports and can route messages from any port to any other port.

The main communications interface is the 10/100BASE-T connection. The transceiver for this port auto-senses which speed to use. The RS-232 interface is available as a peripheral port but is not intended for primary communications. All circuitry is powered from the +3.3V output except the Fast Ethernet transceiver, which is powered from the +5V output.

GPS/Timebase Module

General Description

The GPS/Timebase module interfaces to an internal or external GPS receiver and supplies the 9.6 MHz reference clock to the other modules. It reports time and location data to the system controller once per second via an asynchronous serial link on the backplane. It resides in a dedicated slot on the far right-hand side of the chassis. The slot is 1.2 inches wide versus 0.8 inches for the other slots. This allows extra height for the taller components needed on this board such as the ovenized reference oscillator and the GPS daughter board. Multiple formats for the serial communication protocols are available to interface to GPS component modules. A multiplexer selects between internal and external GPS modules. External connectors for the GPS antenna and wheel sensor, are provided.

A microcontroller controls operation of the module. Flash is used for program storage. A real-time clock, settable from GPS time, is available



for system timekeeping when GPS is not available. A 1PPS signal is broadcast to the backplane to indicate exactly when the GPS second occurs. A wheel sensor rate indicator is also broadcast to other modules for determination of vehicle velocity.

The 9.6 MHz reference oscillator is individually buffered for each module. Its frequency can be adjusted with a microcontroller-controlled DAC. The frequency is disciplined to GPS time by using a frequency counter circuit gated by the GPS 1PPS signal and averaging over a long period of time.

Communications Interface Module

General Description

The Communications Interface Module as the name implies, provides an interface between the various external devices and the chassis system. The primary functions served by this module are as follows:

Provide a communications link between the system and the external

device Provide external device power Provide an audio path to/from the external device (phone) Provide device control through digital I/O

A significant feature of the Invex3G communications interface module is it is designed to interface to most present and future devices without circuit board modification. In addition, in the event a future interface requires special circuitry, a plug in board can be accepted onto the main board assembly for this purpose. This concept was developed to prevent hardware obsolescence as new handsets and other external devices are supported. Embedded application software can be upgraded in the field by downloading new code to non-volatile flash memory.

Each Communications Interface Module will accept two device connections. The connections are controlled independently and can be



the same or different devices. The device cable will provide identification of the device connection. Auto detection of the device type is made via two ID resistors in the phone cable connector housing.

Front Panel

The front panel of the Communications Interface Module provides two connections to external devices and LED’s to report status conditions. A and B These port connectors are used for general-purpose communications with, control of, and power to external devices. These ports are duplicates but can be configured independently to interface with different devices simultaneously. Specialized cable assemblies are available for each supported device.

Receiver/RSSI Decoder Module

General Description

This module is a self-contained receiver and decoder pair used for measuring RF signals. This module is used for signal strength measurements that can be combined with time, location, and speed data for RF coverage analysis. When combined with handsets, best server and adjacent channel interference measurements can be made.

Receivers

Generally, the receivers available for use in the Invex3G platform are high performance signal strength measurement receivers designed for an assortment of RF bands and IF bandwidths. Although specifications vary from model to model, these designs are developed to provide exceptional:

Input Sensitivity Selectivity



IM Rejection Spurious Rejection RSSI Accuracy

Decoder The decoder is a microprocessor/DSP-based assembly that provides two major functions. First, it controls the physical layer functions of the receiver such as synthesizer tuning as well as passing the 9.6 MHz reference oscillator signal and supply power to the receiver. Second, it communicates with the application transferring data and control instructions via the backplane connection to the system controller.

In addition to these basic functions, RSSI calibration correction information for each specific receiver is stored in the decoder assembly. This enables extremely accurate RSSI measurements to be made with these receiver/decoder modules.

Front Panel

The front panel of the Receiver Module provides auxiliary and antenna connections, and LED’s to report status conditions. ANT This is an SMA(F) type coaxial connector used for the antenna connection to an internal receiver. AUX This connector is used to provide an external connection to receiver RSSI voltage, receiver demodulation, and receiver squelched audio. The pin out for this port is shown in the table below.

Digital Receiver Module

General Description

The Digital Receiver Module is a plug in receiver designed to measure RF signal strength and decode other air interface information. The decoded information is primarily used for site origin identification. This information can be combined with handset system data for analysis of neighbor and best server parameters. Module DC power and in some cases, GPS RF signals are provided via a connection in the rear of the unit. Control and communications are accommodated through the front AUX connection. Use of a Digital Receiver Module requires an available port on a Communications Interface Module for integration into a system.

Invex3G™ Hardware Manual Module Removal/Installation


Chapter 5: Module Removal/Installation In this Chapter:

Module Positions ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 40

Module Installation --------------------------------------------------------------------- 42

Module Removal------------------------------------------------------------------------ 43

It is possible to move, remove, add, and replace modules within and between chassis. Guidelines that pertain to module position are discussed in this chapter. Module insertion and removal procedure will also be covered.

:

Caution: Empty module positions require blank covers To provide proper cooling air flow across all modules,

empty slots must be covered using blank panel assemblies. The part number for blank panel assemblies is A002218.G1 and can be purchased from Andrew Corporation.



Module Positions

The module positions for the various types of chassis are numbered as follows. Vertical slots are numbered from left to right starting with 0. Horizontal slots are numbered top to bottom starting with 0. Figure 5.1 illustrates the position numbering for the current chassis types.

Vertical Slot 0

This position is reserved for the System Controller Module GWSCxxxx. This module is keyed to fit only in slot 0 and no other module can be inserted into vertical slot 0. All unique system information is stored in the System Controller Module. Therefore, if this module is removed from one chassis and inserted into another, the system parameters will follow the System Controller Module.

Option Slots

Vertical slots 1 through 4 (GWMP4000 and GWMP4200) or 1 through 8 (GWMP8000) are referred to as option slots. All receivers and communications controllers can be inserted into any option slot. These modules include all GWCIxxxx and GWRDxxxx types. The application software will establish what resource modules are available at start up in these slots. This allows option slot modules to be added, removed, or switched between chassis.



GPS/TBase Slot

Vertical slot 5 (GWMP4000 and GWMP4200) or 9 (GWMP8000) is referred to as the GPS/Tbase slot. It is only used for versions of the GWGTxxxx module.



Digital Receiver Slots

The GWMP4200 provides 2 horizontal slots that accommodate digital receivers. Any GWRxyyyy unit can be installed into these slots. The application software will establish what resource modules are available at start up in these slots.

Module Installation

Caution: Modules are Electrostatic Sensitive

Even a small electrostatic discharge could damage the module. A damaged module might not fail immediately, but over time will become worse, possibly causing an “intermittent” problem. Be very careful to handle the boards ONLY by the edges. DO NOT touch the connectors or components on the board. Leave the modules in the antistatic bag until ready for installation.

1. Turn power switch on unit to the off position but leave power

connected. 2. Touch the metal chassis case to discharge any possible static charge. 3. Carefully remove the module from the antistatic bag. Keep body

movement to a minimum as the modules are handled. 4. Install module into the desired slot by carefully pressing until fully

seated. 5. Tighten hold down screws



Module Removal 1. Turn power switch on unit to the off position but leave power

connected. 2. Touch the metal chassis case to discharge any possible static charge. 3. Loosen module hold down screws. 4. Remove module by carefully pulling on handle only. Place module in approved antistatic bag for transport or storage.
