RF-B! Transmitter Controller Functional Description
The following paragraphs describe the operation of the RF-B! transmitter controller at a
functional level. This information gives the service technician a basic understanding of the
functions performed by the transmitter controller to facilitate maintenance and
troubleshooting to the field replaceable unit (FRU) level.
The RF-B! transmitter controller decodes incoming messaging data from the RF-C! controller
and converts the data to transmitter-compatible protocols. The decoded messaging
information is sent to the transmitter for transmission to the communicators.
The RF-B! transmitter controller performs the following functions (see Figure 2-2):
• Secondary voice processing
• InFLEXion, ReFLEX, and FLEX message processing
• Remote software download processing
• Software download transfers to the transmitter
• Transmitter operation and remote diagnostic monitoring
• Synchronization to GPS time needed for simulcast and FLEX systems
