AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A The back lit keypad allows the user to access the many radio functions. The 6-button SCAN provides easy access to preprogrammed telephone and individual radio ID’s, while the 15-button System keypad expands this capability, allowing direct entry of these numbers. The LPE-200 radios have a keypad with translucent keys. A detailed description of the keypads and their additional function is found in the OPERATION section. DESCRIPTION The Ericsson Inc.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A MECHANICAL The radios are packaged in a polycarbonate blend exterior housing. A six-cell back mounted nickel cadmium battery pack provides a nominal 7.5 volts. Two different nickel cadmium battery packs offering high and extended capacities are available for use with the portable radios. The top of the radio has a Volume, Channel/ Area/System select knob, Emergency/Home button, TX LED and a screw-on antenna mount connector.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A OPERATION The LPE-200 series of portable radios is designed for EDACS and conventional mode operation. When the unit is used in a trunked EDACS, the digital control channel is automatically monitored. When the user initiates a call, the unit sends a digital request through a control channel to the site controller. The site controller then assigns the calling radio and all members of the talk group to an available working channel.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A KEYPAD SCAN/SYSTEM FUNCTIONS Key Function (Scan only) Adds/Deletes selected groups or channels from the Scan list of the currently selected system.

AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A storage and personality storage. This software supports read/write of EEPROM data such as Tracking Data and Feature Encryption. Data compression is used to reduce FLASH application loading time. CIRCUIT ANALYSIS The portable radio is unique in the generation of the transmit carrier. The transmit section has an offset frequency loop operating at 115.2 MHz. This means the synthesizer is operating at a frequency that is not harmonically related to the output frequency.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A Local Oscillator Buffer (V450) The injection frequency (1011.2-1016.2 MHz) from the synthesizer circuit is applied to the base of Local Oscillator (LO) NPN buffer transistor V450 through capacitor C450 and inductor L450. This signal at the input of V450 is 0 dBM and is amplified to +4 dBm. This signal can be metered at TP450. The output of V450 is connected to the input of mixer Z402 (Pin 1).
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A Digital I/O Lines The balanced RxIF and RxIF_B (B implies “Barred” indicating that the condition is true when the line is low) lines connect through resistor and capacitor RF decoupling circuits to HILLARY D701. RxIF connects through resistors R715 and R714 and capacitor C707 to D701, Pin 8. RxIF_B connects through resistors R717 and R718 and capacitor C709 to D701, Pin 7. Both of these lines connect to a Phase Digitizer internal to D701.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A TRANSMITTER Transmit Frequency Generation The main VCO, in the synthesizer circuit, is programmed to generate the 1st LO receive injection frequency (1011.2 to 1016.2 MHz). This carrier frequency is mixed with a transmit offset frequency of 115.2 MHz to generate the carrier and two side band frequencies. The carrier and upper side band are suppressed and only the lower side band is transmitted. For example: the carrier frequency of 1015.2 MHz minus the offset frequency of 115.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A (MODQ and MODQ_B). The I input passes through a low pass filter consisting of capacitors C191, C192 and C193, resistor R166 and inductors L156 and L157. The output of this filter connects to N150, Pins 43 (I) and 42 (I_bar). The Q input passes through a low pass filter consisting of capacitors C194, C195 and C196, resistor R167 and inductor L158 and L159. The output of this low pass filter connects to N150, Pins 41 (Q) and 40 (Q_bar).
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A divider consisting of resistors R116 and R117. The output of the divider circuit connects to power control buffer amplifier N102-B, Pin 5 (+IN). The output of N102-B drives Pin 1 of the power amplifier. Power Control Buffer (N102-B) A regulated 5.5 Vdc is applied to power control buffer N102-B, Pin 8 (V+). The buffer circuit is a shaping circuit which provides a control voltage on Pin 7 (+OUT). This voltage after passing through resistor R120 is typically 2.5 Vdc to 3.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A the voltage divider consisting of resistors R202 and R204 and can be metered at test point TP202. The level of this signal is typically 25 mV RMS. This feedback signal connects through coupling capacitor C207 to N203, Pin 5 (INM1). The voltage level at this point is typically 4.5 V. Main Synthesizer (N203) In synthesizer N203 the feedback signal from the VCO is input to a prescaler where it is divided down to produce a 19.2 MHz signal. This signal is compared with the 19.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A Tx Switch (V192) Processor Reset The Tx Switch consists of transistor V192. Transistor V192 is normally off (receive). When the Delayed Push-ToTalk (DPTT) line goes high (transmitter keyed), transistor V192 conducts and the base of B+ Switch PNP transistor V191 goes low. +5V_D is connected through resistor R901 to open collector output N900, Pin 5 (ERROR). Timing is provided by pull-up resistor R901 and capacitor C905. The ERROR voltage can be metered at test point TP903.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A LCD NEGATIVE BIAS GENERATOR A 96 kHz, 5V p-p square wave from HILLARY D70157 is rectified and inverted to a negative supply voltage by C922, V909 and C923. This negative voltage is controlled to the LCD by V910 to vary the display contrast. Thermistor R604 is monitored via the A/D input to DEBBIE.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A 4. Flash Programming The “FLASH” software is the current version of the LPE-200 radio operating software. When changes and enhancements are made to the operating code, the new operating code can be “FLASHED” to the radio, upgrading the operating code without any hardware changes to the radio. Flash software is simply a computer file which is read from a disk and downloaded to the radio using the PC Programmer. The Equipment Setup shown in Figure 7 is same as for Personality Programming.

AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A ERROR CODES INTRODUCTION This section lists all the radio errors and warnings. The radio displays errors and warnings to the user to indicate problems that have occurred. Radio errors can occur at any time from power up to power down. Each error code in the list includes an explanation of what went wrong and what action to take to correct the problem. Error codes are divided into three categories: • Fatal operational error codes. These errors will cause the radio to reset.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A Non-Fatal Errors Non-fatal errors are displayed for a short period (about two seconds) then normal radio operation will resume. Non-Fatal Errors Description Undocumented error. Feature encryption error. DSP error. Attempt to keyload w/o bank storage. Attempt to keyload w/o private DSP file loaded.

AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A DISASSEMBLY PROCEDURE Figure 11 5. To disassemble the LPE-200 radio: Figure 9 1. Remove the battery pack by pushing the battery release button and sliding the battery pack straight back until it stops, then lift the battery pack out. When replacing the battery pack align the ribs on the sides of the battery pack with the slots in the sides of the radio. Push down and slide the battery pack into place.
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A Figure 13 Figure 15 10. Using a flat blade screwdriver, push on the battery contacts. Be careful not to damage the gasket. Applying pressure on the battery contacts will slowly separate the main circuit board and shield from the metal frame. 12. Remove the board from the shield by prying up on a corner and working around the board to release the snaps. Figure 13 - Push Battery Contacts Figure 14 11. Carefully unplug the small flex at the top of the radio (F).
AE/LZB 119 1902 R1A Figure 17 14. Pry up on the hook to release from the latch and push down on the switches to remove the assembly from the housing. PA Module Replacement Remove the PA Module by unsoldering the five (5) leads attached to the Main Board (see the Outline Diagram). Solder new module in same location. Filters Z400 And Z401 Replacement Filter Z400 has four (4) leads that go all the way through the board and are soldered on the reverse side of the board. Unsolder the four leads to remove Z400.
