108 General Information
Level-2 repairs comprise repairs of control-head boards and, except for
special items, main-board assemblies. The special items are:
digital board
■
RF PAs (Q309 and Q310)
■
CODEC 1 (IC204)
■
copper plate
■
Replacements of the connectors on the main-board assembly, are level-2
repairs because these repairs entail the disassembly of the main-board
assembly.
For level-2 repairs, you require expertise in SMT repairs of circuit boards
with a very high complexity and extreme component density.
You require the tools and equipment required for level-1 repairs, as well as
standard SMT repair tools. A can-removal tool is strongly recommended but
not mandatory.
Note
All existing Accredited Service Centres must apply for an
endorsement to work on TM8100/TM8200 radios. When the
endorsement is granted, they will be permitted to carry out level
1 and level 2 repairs on the radios, whether the radio is under
warranty or not.
If your service centre would like to apply for Accredited Service Centre
(ASC) status, please contact Tait Technical Support at the address in the front
of this manual. You will need to provide evidence that your centre meets the
criteria for accreditation. Any centre applying for accreditation must also:
make suitable staff available for training by Tait personnel
■
allow the service facilities to be assessed
■
provide adequate documentation of processes
■
Once staff are trained and facilities are confirmed as suitable, the centre is
granted ASC status and endorsed for repairs. See also
below.
No password is required for the unsecured area of the website, which is
accessible to the general public. To carry out level 1 or level 2 repairs,
however, you need to log on to the secured area of the Tait Technical
Support website, www.taitworld.com/technical. Technical Support
supplies the necessary log-in information. The Single Sign-On feature
automatically signs you on with your authorised level of access:
level 1 repairs require "associate" access
■
level 2 repairs require "ASC and Tait-only" access
