Transceiver Hardware Generations

As of July 2013, the GTR 8000 Base Radio is shipped with a new generation of transceiver hardware
(referred to in this manual as GEN 2). The hardware updates are intended to extend the life of the
device as seamlessly as possible. This section details relevant differences and compatibility
requirements for GEN 1 and GEN 2 hardware.
9.2.1

Transceiver Software and Feature Compatibilities

The GEN 2 transceiver hardware is backwards compatible and interchangeable with GEN 1
transceiver hardware on ASTRO
ordered; however, spare inventory of GEN 1 transceivers can be used as Field Replaceable Unit
(FRU) replacements.
All ASTRO ® 25 system features are supported on GEN 1 and GEN 2 transceivers, with the following
exceptions.

Table 57: System Feature Exceptions

Feature
X2 TDMA
3600 Operation
GEN 2 transceiver hardware is not compatible with ASTRO
distributed before July 2013. The transfer operation fails if you perform a software download using a
SWDL application released before July 2013.
BEFORE installing a FRU replacement or expansion channel at an existing site, ensure that you are
using the latest available SWDL application, and that all base radios and receivers at the site meet the
minimum software version requirements listed. Contact Motorola Solutions Support Center (SSC) at
800-422-4210 if you do not have access to compatible software.
