Page 21: Mcs-11 Operation
An Operational Support System (OSS) provides a means to remotely monitor and control an MDR-8000 radio via an MCS-11 Monitor and Control System polling master. A Remote Station Summary (RSS), a Remote Detail Scanner (RDS), a Remote Analog Scanner (RAS), and a Remote Control Decoder (RCD) are available at the polling master for each radio network element.
Page 22: Lamp Tests
Lamp Tests 2.4.5 Perform lamp tests by pressing and holding ACO/LT OVRD switch on controller front panel in ACO/LT position. All indicators on controller and indicators on all equipped modules should light. Release ACO/LT OVRD switch. Alarm Checks 2.4.6 The USI Alarm and Status screens provide alarms and status for the radio. Refer to description of alarms and status in the maintenance section.
Page 23: Turn-Off Procedure
It is recom- mended that turn-off be performed only in an emergency.

OC3 REPEATER (J203 ON ONE SHELF TO J203 ON SECOND SHELF) 3.13 Note The OC3 radio repeater cable carries clocks, data, and overhead for two directions. It does not carry OC3 or Wayside DS1 trafﬁc. OC3 ﬁber optic cables and Wayside DS1 cables must be run separately. If the repeater cable is not used, the embedded data in the overhead must be cabled individually.
Page 60: Usi/Controller Cable Connection To Laptop (J301)
The MDR-8000 provides a 256 kb/s auxiliary channel for servicing the radio. This is an over- head channel and is independent of the trafﬁc channels. The 256 kb/s service channel con- tains four 64 kb/s service channels.
Page 61: Handset Jack
See Figure 3-16. There are eight connectors on the backplane to interface with three of the service channels. The connectors on the backplane interface three functions: audio, RS- 232, and MCS-11. Each service channel is provisioned for a speciﬁc function. As shown by the vertical line connecting to the three functions on one side and the three service chan- nels (SC1, SC2, and SC3) on the opposite side, audio and MCS can be put on any open ser- vice channel.

Page 85: Relay Alarm/Status Outputs
Relay Alarm/Status Outputs 3.17.5 Eight alarm relay outputs and seven status relay outputs provide relay closure to ground (provisioned NO) or open (provisioned NC) when activated. All relays default to open if card power is lost, except the Power Supply alarms, which default to ground. The maxi- mum contact rating for each relay is 0.5 A, 100 Vdc.

Page 87: Relay Control Outputs
Relay Control Outputs 3.17.6 Note Control outputs and control status inputs operate together to perform control functions. The control status inputs to the relay interface must be properly wired to the external equipment that is being controlled by the associated control output in order to display the ON or OFF status on the USI control screen.

Page 89: Initial Turnup
This provisioning part of the section describes provisioning options available with the MDR-8000 software application. Provisioning allows for the deﬁnition, editing, and storing of speciﬁc functions. The MDR-8000 provides the ability to provision equipment and facili- ties through a series of Windows™-based screens and messages. The Provisioning menu lists equipment and functions which may be provisioned.
Page 90: Test Procedures
The MDR-8000 application software offers user password security management using two different levels of passwords. User security deals with access level assigned to speciﬁc users. The level of user security affects the type and number of commands an individual user may execute. This prevents an unqualiﬁed user’s access to high-level commands.

Note Spare XMTRs and XMTRs repaired at the factory normally do not con- tain Crystal Oscillator Subboards or Capacity Keys. The user must retain the crystal Oscillator Subboard and the Capacity Key from the module being replaced before sending the module back to the factory for repair.
Page 184 Note Output level calibration is required for the last ampliﬁcation stage in the chain of XMT ampliﬁers leading to the antenna, only. If the radio is equipped with a PA and a transmitter fails, the replacement transmit- ter must be adjusted to return the radio to the original PA output power.

See the following ﬁgures and follow the procedure to adjust carrier null on the UD-35A( ) Transmitter, in service. Note Carrier leakage can be nulled in the MDR-8000 using any one of three methods. Method 1 (the preferred method) uses a spectrum analyzer to determine if carrier leakage is present while a modulated signal is being transmitted (in service) and then nulling any carrier present.
