Functions Description
Function\Function "Radio".doc
Function of the
R&S XU 4200
transceiver
The transceiver R&S XU 4200 contains the R&S EU 4250 receiver module
and the R&S VU 4250 transmitter module, which is powered by the
R&S IN 4240 power supply unit.
Front panel
control unit
The front panel control unit A8 with LCD and keyboard A9 make local
control of the radio possible on a lab bench or for activities such as
installation and maintenance. You can audio-monitor to the demodulated
analog voice in the receiver module at any time by using the built-in
loudspeaker. The RF signal issued at common antenna X3 is demodulated
in the transmitter module and can be audio-monitored at any time via the
built-in loudspeaker too. You can control the volume by means of the
volume control on the front panel.
The main fan is controlled and monitored by the control unit A8.
USB interface
You can configure and make basic settings for the radio via the USB
interface on the front panel. In addition you can download software of all
firmware components via the USB. The main backplane A6, which
connects all modules, contains a USB hub and connects the transceiver's
USB interface controller with the front panel control unit A7.
Remote control
Power supply
Display
LEDs indicate the current operating state at all times. You can display the
operating settings, radio configuration, analog measurement values and
status in detail on an eight-row LCD.
Audio interface
Receiver module:
On the system side the 600 ohm audio interface RX Audio Basic X10 is
connected to the rear panel and the squelch state can be signalled here via
a contact.
Transmitter module:
On the system side the 600 ohm audio interface TX Audio Basic X5 is
connected to the rear panel and the PTT keying is activated. You can
flexibly configure the PTT input via service PC and adjust it to the voltage
conditions (48 V, +28 V, optocoupler input) in the system.
Note: Audio interface can also support digital audio nterfaces of E1 and
VoIP.
Main and
standby function
For redundant system installations with 1:1 switchover, the main and
standby radios are connected with each other via hardware contacts. This
allows quick switchover without any delay in the event of a failure. In
addition, an antenna relay can be connected and controlled.

Front Cabling
Introduction
In actual operation, the radio is usually operated via the rear panel system
interfaces, thus eliminating the need for front panel cabling. The radio is
preconfigured with the factory settings and can be operated without any
further configuration.
The front panel interfaces are needed during installation and maintenance.
The radio can be operated in the local mode via the headset. The USB
interface is used to set configuration parameters or to perform complete
software updates. Rohde & Schwarz supplies the Service and Maintenance
Tool R&S ZS 4200 for this purpose.

3.3.2
Meaning of Parameters
TX Audio Level
This parameter refers to the modulation input (connector X5.2/3). With the
default setting, the modulation sensitivity is of 0 dBm which means that at
an AF level of 775 mV at this 600 ohm input, the AM transmitter is driven
and modulated at 90 % modulation. The input can be configured from
30 dBm to +10 dBm in accordance with the line infrastructure and the
incoming signal levels. The sensitivity is greatest at 30 dBm, which
means that the full modulation of 90 % modulation is achieved even at a
low level.
RX Audio Level
TX Output Power
Level Low
Using this parameter, you can define the transmit power between 5 W and
20 W. This value is then adopted with the Low setting (see chapter
3.4.7.2).
TX Output Power
Level Normal
Using this parameter, you can define the transmit power between 5 W and
50 W. This value is then adopted with the Normal setting (see chapter
3.4.7.2).
S/N Squelch
Threshold
The threshold value for the signal to noise (S/N) ratio can be set for the
squelch. If the squelch is activated, the RX audio output is muted until an
RF receive signal with a sufficient S/N ratio is applied.
The S/N threshold can be set in a range between 6 dB and 20 dB.
Note: The thresholds are defined for S/N. The corresponding value of
SINAD will be 2 dB higher (SINAD 12 dB value corresponds with S/N
10 dB value).
RSSI Squelch
Threshold
The RSSI threshold is based on the received signal level at the receivers
input. The RSSI threshold can be set in a range between 1 V and 50 V.
Carrier Override
6166.5368.02.01
3.14
R&S XU 4200
TX AM Modulation
Depth
TX Audio ALC
The automatic level control for the audio modulation can be switched on
and off.
When this function is activated, the set AM modulation depth (see TX AM
Modulation Depth parameter) is ensured over a dynamic range of 15 dB
at the TX audio level interface (X5.2/3).
Note: If an automatic level control is active in the system external to the
radio, then the level control of the radio should be switched off.
RX Audio AGC
PTT Timeout
A time limit can be set for the transmit time. This prevents the radio from
transmitting for an unlimited amount of time if the PTT key is pressed
(stuck). With a value of 0 s, the time limit is switched off.
Note: It is recommended to disable the PTT Timeout in the VoIP mode.
PTT Input
Configuration
There are three different input configurations for the rear PTT input
(connector X5.8/9).
Type I stands for optocoupler input.
Type II should be configured if the system ground (= ground of the PTT
key) does not have the same potential as the rack ground. In this case, the
PTT circuit is fed via the negative voltage of 48 V in the radio.
With the Rohde & Schwarz standard, a pull-up resistor is switched against
the positive voltage of +28 V in the radio.
True Sidetone
Transceiver
The built-in receiver demodulates the emitted signal of the transmitter and
a true sidetone is provided to the Audio RX output.
Depending on the configuration, the receiver in the housing is muted
during transmission. In this case, a true sidetone is not supplied.
Note: Not supported in receivers.
5-Carrier Offset
3.15
6166.5368.02.01
R&S XU 4200
With this parameter the radio can be configured for voice (disabled) or
ACARS data operation (enabled) (2400 Bps).
The Voice setting is optimized for voice processing and squelch muting.
The ACARS setting available for receiving ACARS data. In this case a
faster RF front-end control is in action. The attack and decay time is in
accordance with the ETSI EN 300676 standard.
If the radio is operating in ACARS data mode, only the 25 kHz spacing can
be used and the parameters RX Audio AGC and TX Audio ALC must be
deactivated.
This parameter is used to select the audio interface of the radio. If the
Analog Audio is selected, the RX Audio Basic interface X10/TX Audio
Basic interface X5 is used. If the E1 is selected, the E1 Communication
Data interface X13 is used. For more information on E1 interface please
refer to chapter 3.12 Audio via E1 Interface. If VoIP is selected, audio data
will be transmitted via Ethernet by the data interface X6 (RX), X9 (TX) (see
chapter 3.15) and TX Audio Basic interface X5. For parallel operation of
VoIP and Analog Audio interfaces, please see chapter 3.15.9 Parallel
Operation of the Analog and VoIP Audio Interfaces.
RX Input Sensitivity
200 preset pages can be stored in the radio and called up. Each contains
the frequency and spacing parameters. These parameters can be set for
each preset page.

Only the first 20 characters entered by using the R&S ZS 4200 appear on
the radio display.
IP Address
An IP address must be assigned for each radio module, which allows each
module to be uniquely identified and operated in remote operating mode.
Additionally, specifying the netmask and the gateway makes it possible to
work within different subnets via a router.
ACL
(Access Control List)
Here you can enter the IP addresses of the remote control systems or
clients that are allowed to access the radio. This protects the radio against
unwanted/unknown accesses. If the list is blank (default), then any client
with any IP address can access the radio.

Line Interface in
Local Mode
In local mode, the rear and front panel audio interfaces as well as the VoIP
and E1 data streams operate in parallel (default). The rear panel audio line
interface (including PTT) as well as the VoIP and E1 data streams can be
disabled for the local mode. This allows independent use of the radio for a
service technician where unwanted radio keying from the system-oriented
PTT line input must be prevented.
Local Mode
You can disable the LOC button on the radio to prevent the radio from
being switched from remote mode to local mode.
The external VSWR limit specifies the voltage threshold for the analog
input EXT-VSWR (X7.8). Especially for installations with external
circulators the voltage from an external SWR-detector can be connected to
the radio in order to generate CBIT warning 0338. The external VSWR
input is only processed during active TX state.
Polarity of the external VSWR voltage. Positive polarity means the CBIT is
generated if the measured value is above the defined limit. Negative
polarity means the measured value is below the defined limit.

Threshold
The level threshold of the PTT tone detector is variable within specified
range and is related to nominal audio signal level set by TX Audio Level.
Note: In case of low absolute levels, the S/N ratio in the system must be
taken into account. Make sure that the S/N ratio does not fall below a
specific value. The applicable value in each case is calculated from the
audio level minus the PTT signaling level for the transmitter. If the setting
with 0 dB in-band signaling is selected, the headroom for the sum level is
reduced by 6 dB.

TX Preemphasis
For the use especially with long telephone lines, the AF response shape
can be adjusted in a way that higher frequencies have higher gain than
lower frequencies. The value in dB specifies the gain at AF = 3400 Hz in
comparison to AF = 800 Hz. Nominal TX audio level is always related to
AF = 1 kHz. Default value is 0 dB which means that TX preemphasis is off.
SNMP Community
String
SNMP Enable
The parameter is used to enable and disable the SNMP functionality of the
radio on the LAN interface.
If the parameter is set to "Disable", the SNMP functionality is disabled and
only GB2PP protocol is supported via LAN. If the parameter is set to
"Enable", both GB2PP and SNMP protocols are supported.
Note: It is strongly recommended to disable the SNMP protocol if only the
GB2PP protocol is used.
DC-Battery
Supervision
The voltage during battery operation can be monitored. If the voltage is too
low, two responses in the radio can be triggered.
The Warning setting generates the CBIT warnings 0301 and 0401, which
are output via the remote system connected.
The NOGO setting sets the TEST_OC signal at the output
(connector X5.4) and initiates a switchover to the standby mode in
a main/standby configuration. This setting is recommended if, for example,
two separate DC networks are used for the main and standby radios.

eg.
user@muenchen.rohde-schwarz.de.
The URI can be up to 64 characters. Characters and other naming
conventions have to follow the RFC 3986 rules. Using the reserved
characters makes the URI invalid and thus the VoIP operation is not
possible.
The default value of URI RX module is rx@192.168.52.101.

The default value of URI TX module is tx@192.168.52.102.
The VoIP mode of the radio offers the possibility to configure the access for
VoIP connections. Each entry contained in the URI ACL grants access to
establish VoIP connections to the radio. In default configuration the URI
ACL is a whitelist. This means that accessing the radio via VoIP is not
restricted. The URI ACL can contain up to 20 entries with a maximum of 64
characters per entry.
Emergency VoIP URI ACL stores URI of the VoIP clients which are allowed
to access the radio with either normal or emergency call priority.
Compared to Emergency VoIP URI ACL the Normal VoIP URI ACL stores
URI of the VoIP clients which are allowed to access the radio with normal
call priority.

This parameter refers to the VoIP modulation input. With the default
setting, the modulation sensitivity is 0 dBm0 which means that at the VoIP
audio level of 0 dBm0 the AM transmitter is driven and modulated at 90 %
modulation. The input can be configured from 30 dBm0 to 0 dBm0 in
accordance with the VoIP infrastructure and the incoming signal levels.
The sensitivity is greatest at 30 dBm0 which means that the full
modulation of 90 % modulation is achieved even at a low level.
Note: The achieved modulation depth depends on the TX AM Modulation
Depth parameter. The relationship described above is valid for TX AM
Modulation Depth configured to 90% (by default).
Note: The default setting ensures the compliance with the ED-137
requirement of 30 % AM modulation depth at 10 dBm0 audio level. If the
VoIP infrastructure complies with the ED-137, the default value shall be left
unchanged.
This parameter refers to the VoIP audio output of the AM receiver. With the
default setting of 4 dBm0, an effective level of 4dBm0 is applied at 60 %
AM modulation of the current receive signal (0.5 dBm0 at 90 %
modulation). The output can be configured from 30 dBm0 to 4 dBm0 in
accordance with the VoIP infrastructure.
Note: The default setting ensures the compliance with the ED-137
requirement of 10 dBm0 at 30% AM modulation depth. If the VoIP
infrastructure complies with the ED-137, the default value shall be left
unchanged.
TX Audio ALC E1
The automatic level control for the E1 audio modulation can be switched on
and off. When this function is activated, the set AM modulation depth (see
TX AM Modulation Depth parameter) is ensured over a dynamic range of
15 dB at the TX E1 audio interface (X13, X14).
Note: If the automatic level control is active in the system external to the
radio, then the level control of the radio should be switched off.
RX Audio AGC E1
The automatic level control for the VoIP audio modulation can be switched
on and off. When this function is activated, the set AM modulation depth
(see TX AM Modulation Depth parameter) is ensured over a dynamic
range of 15 dB at the TX VoIP audio interface.
Note: If an automatic level control is active in the system external to the
radio, then the level control of the radio should be switched off.
IPv6 Enabled
This parameter is used to enable IPv6 IP-version. The radio can use either
IPv4 or IPv6 for LAN communication. Simultaneous operation of IPv4 and
IPv6 is not possible. If this parameter is set to Enabled, IPv6 will be used
and IPv4 will be automatically disabled.
Note: DHCP will be automatically disabled if IPv6 is enabled by the user.
Note: Both IP configuration and Access Control List of the RX and TX
modules must be configured according to the selected IP-version.

Note: If the radio is set to local mode (LOC), remote control commands will
be refused. Local mode has the highest priority and interrupts any remote
control fixed sessions. Parameters can only be monitored remotely when
the radio is in local mode.
When the radio is in the local mode, you can connect a headset and power
up the transmitter by pressing the PTT key at any time.
In the receive mode, the front-panel receive audio signal is always audible.
In other words, the internal loudspeaker and the headset audio connector
are always active and the volume of the two can be controlled by the
assigned potentiometer.
Note: The local mode causes the termination of all active VoIP connections
if the parameter Line Interface in Local mode is disabled. As long as the
radio is in local mode, all VoIP connection requests are rejected.
All parameters and measurements can be displayed in the remote and local
modes.

LOC Key
Function on radio
The LOC key enables you to switch between local and remote mode at any
time independently of the current menu. The local mode has priority over
remote accesses, i.e. a remote fixed session over the Ethernet LAN
interface will automatically be terminated if you select local mode by
pressing this key. If you press the key a second time, local mode will be
terminated, at which point a remote client must re-initiate the session to the
device (or to the modules).
By pressing the LOC key the radio will enter the local mode.
Note: The local mode causes the termination of all active VoIP connections
if the parameter Line Interface in Local mode is disabled. As long as the
radio is in local mode, all VoIP connection requests are rejected.
Deactivation
You can deactivate the LOC key from the service PC (USB configuration),
thus blocking local mode altogether (protection from improper use).
Key operation
messages
By using the service PC (USB), you can configure whether a local access
leads to a warning message or not. The local mode state would then be
reflected in the CBIT status. In addition, the start and end of the local mode
will be stored in the event log together with time information. If applicable,
this information will also be sent to the fault management system.

Introduction
You can enter numeric parameters by using the numeric keys and the
and cursors.
You can enter the value directly via the numeric keypad. Start with the
foremost position. After each digit, the cursor will jump to the next position.
After you enter the last digit, the cursor will remain at that position. To
accept the value, press the ENTER key. The system will automatically
check for valid limit values and consistency.

The radio offers a number of different offsets that can be activated. As the
handling of unsupported offsets is different from the handling of any other
unsupported parameter, an explanation is given here to avoid
misunderstandings. Normally unsupported parameters or commands are
rejected by the radio with an error message.
Whether an offset is supported depends on a combination of other
parameters, such as spacing or mode. Please refer to the ICD for a
detailed table with all permitted combinations of modes, offsets and
spacings that can be set to the hardware.
Note: The radio behavior is specified as follows: offsets that are not
permitted in certain spacing will be accepted and stored by the radio, but
not activated in the hardware. Only when a spacing which supports this
stored offset is activated, the offset will be activated in the hardware. The
consequence of storing the offset is that it can be read out over all
interfaces and it is displayed on the MMI, even if it is not activated in the
hardware because this combination of offset and spacing is not permitted.

R&S XU 4200
Description
There are different ways to switch between the radio states. Using the
remote control mode, it is possible to send the "MS_GO" or "MS_AC"
command to toggle the radio state. In the local mode, it is possible to
change the activation state of the radio. After leaving the local mode, the
radio will keep this state.
3.6.1.3
Description
If an error or NOGO warning occurs on the "Main" radio, the "Standby" radio
will be activated via the TEST_OC line. The "Standby" device will
become active and switches the "Main" radio inactive using the crossconnected *OFF line.
If an error disappears on the inactive "Main" radio, the "Standby" radio will
stay active. In case there will be an error on the active "Standby" device, a
switchover to the "Main" radio will be done if no error is active on this radio.

1.
Use the Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 to configure one
of the two devices as Main (0) and the other one as Standby (1) unit.
2.
The following settings have to be done in the local mode or via the
remote control system.
Both radios (in transceiver radios: four radio modules 2x TX and 2x
RX) have to be set to "AUTO" via the remote control command
"MS_AC" or they could be configured to activation state "ON" in the
local mode (see Fig. 3.71).
After leaving the local mode, the device will automatically switch to the
"AUTO" mode and will be ready for the main/standby switchover (see
Fig. 3.72).
Note: The operation of the Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 is
described in detail in the corresponding operating manual.

3.6.4
Limitations/Notes
Please note that there are certain limitations for the main/standby operation:
Main and Standby radio configuration with NoGo state on radios wired
as 1:1 M/S pair must be avoided
In case of the NoGo state on both radios, both TEST_OC lines become
open (both radios are reporting a request for M/S switchover). This
state brings the radios to ACTIVE state when they can receive and
transmit simultaneously. This can be dangerous especially for
transmitters.
Example of an incorrect radio configuration:
HW Configuration: Main and Standby radios are supplied from the
same mains. Both radios are connected to a DC backup battery
CBIT Configuration: AC-Main Supervision is configured as "NoGo" on
both Main and Stadby radios. If the AC main fails, the radios will
request the M/S switchover and switch to the unwanted ACTIVE state
Note: If one radio is in local mode while the other one is in remote mode,
then the locally operated radio is active and the second one is inactive. This
setting remains even when the local mode is left. The main/standby
switchover capability of the radio pair is now available.
Note: The Inactive Warning parameter should be set to Disable to avoid
the inactive "Standby" radio showing the CBIT event INACTIVE
WARNING.
Note: Set the Line Interface in Local Mode parameter to Disable.
Note: Make sure that all operational parameters are equal on both radios
(with exception of IP address).

This chapter
3.8.1
Introduction/Overview
Introduction
To reduce the number of lines, in particular for transmitting signals over long
distances, the use of the bidirectional in-band technique via a 2-pair
AF/telephone line per radio unit (receiver, transmitter or transceiver) is
recommended.
The R&S Series 4200 radios support the following in-band functions:
Signaling of PTT
PTT can be keyed by a tone with a specified frequency that is present within
AF signal. If the parameter is ON, the in-band tone is detected and controls the
PTT function. The tone itself is suppressed within transmitted signal by a notch
filter. The PTT can be signaled via the TX audio channel with the tones of 2040
Hz, 2300 Hz, 2970 Hz or 3100 Hz.

remains < 100 Ohm for each cable.
Note: Using the E1 interface together with the BSS function is not possible.
Note: With the AUDIO_RxA and AUDIO_RxB signals connected in parallel
the output impedance will be halved to a value of 300 Ohm.

Limitations/Notes
Please note that there are certain limitations to radio operation if the best
signal selection function is active:
Note: If the signal strength is nearly identical on both radios, it may happen
that the radio with the weaker signal is connected to the distant station
because of measurement tolerances.
Note: The thresholds are defined for S/N. The corresponding value of
SINAD will be 2 dB higher (SINAD 12 dB value corresponds with S/N 10 dB
value).

Note: Once the SQ criteria are met, the signal strength is evaluated. An
appropriate CAS code is selected and kept unchanged for the whole period
(until the SQ release).
Error handling
If NOGO errors occur in the radio, an alarm indication signal (AIS) is sent
via the E1 interface. If a CAS-coded PTT signal is received during this time,
it is ignored.
The squelch signaling is overwritten by the "Device status NOGO" signaling.
The Alarm for Inactive Warning parameter can be used to enable or
disable the sending of AIS also when the radio goes to inactive mode
(stand-by). This allows implementing an automatic switchover to another
radio if the multiplexer used on site supports such function.
The PTT function will be disabled if one of the following states of the E1
interface are detected:

Introduction
This chapter describes behavior on the standard operation screen while the
radio is running in VoIP mode.
The standard operation screen informs the user about active SIP sessions
of the radio. This information contains the number of active SIP sessions for
the RX (0) and TX (1) module.
The information of active SIP sessions replaces the information

Introduction
This chapter explains the way from session initiation to audio transmission
via VoIP. The explanation of the connection establishment is independent
from the radio modules.
VoIP is a session-based communication standard. This means that audio
data transmission requires a mechanism to synchronize the two endpoints
(RX/TX and VCS/R&S GB4000V) also called user agents (UA). This
synchronization of endpoint capabilities is done by SIP (see chapter 3.15.1)
and SDP (see chapter 3.15.1). In this case SIP is used to initiate a session
and SDP is used for negotiating the endpoint capabilities.
The connection establishment between two user agents contains two
phases:

Software Download
Introduction
The software download can be done using the Service and Maintenance
Tool R&S ZS4200. There is a possibility to perform the software download
remotely via the LAN interface (see Fig. 3.97) or by using the local USB
interface (see Fig. 3.98).
Note: For details (e.g. IP address), please refer to the Service and
Maintenance Tool R&S ZS4200 software manual.
Partition
management
Fig. 3.97
Fig. 3.98
The radio is equipped with two different partitions; each of them can be
updated with a certain software version. The software versions in a partition
1 may be different from the version in a partition 2.
The radio may be booted from each partition. The partition to be booted can
be selected with the LAN command RU_SI or by using the
Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200. For more details, see the
Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 software manual and the ICD.
Note: As the R&S XU 4200 contains 3 modules (receiver, transmitter and
MMI modules), there is a partition 1 and a partition 2 in each module.
6166.5368.02.01
3.112
Software Download
USB Download
R&S XU 4200
If the radio is updated via USB interface, always the first partition is
updated. The Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200 switches the
radio into an update mode, which interrupts the operation and disables all
interfaces.
After the software download the radio always boots from the partition 1.
Remote Download
via LAN
The software download on the LAN interface can be done in parallel to the
operation of the radio. The update is always done into the partition which
was not used for booting. This means that if the radio was booted from the
partition 1, the remote download will be done into the partition 2 and vice
versa.
After the download has been completed the user can choose when to
switch the radio into the updated partition. This is done by selecting the
partition which has been updated as the boot partition and then
commanding the radio to reboot. Then, the radio always reboots from the
same partition until the partition is changed manually via a remote control
command.
Recovery
mechanism
The radio is rebooted after a software update and this reboot fail.
The user manually switches the partition and the succeeding reboot
fails.
Note: The normal booting time of the radio is less than 1 minute.

Fan Maintenance
Introduction
The main fan of the radio prevents the radio from overheating in case of
high external temperature, or a high VSWR value on the transmitter. The
fan of the PSU (power supply unit) ensures that the power supply does not
overheat. Therefore, the temperature inside the radio is constantly
measured and the rotation speed of the fans is adapted accordingly and
monitored.
Inspecting
the air intake
Inspect the air intake on the front panel for dust build-up and clean it if
necessary. The inspection interval depends on the environmental conditions
under which the transceiver is operated.
Note: Due to the long service life of the fan, no regular maintenance is
required here besides cleaning. The speed of the fan is monitored by
means of the continuous built-in test (CBIT), and a warning is promptly
generated (see chapter 4.2).
Maintenance of the
main and PSU fans

CAUTION
The rear panel is extremely hot around common antenna X3 and the power
supply unit (plugs X1, X2) owing to the radio's high transmit power. A label
indicates the hot area.
Do not directly touch the rear panel during or soon after operation.
CAUTION
Wear goggles when working with compressed air in order to avoid injuries.
ATTENTION
Direct compressed air first toward ground until no more condensed water is
contained in the air jet.
Keep a minimum distance of 20 cm between compressed air and
transceiver.

The radio can be remotely controlled and monitored via its IP-interface.
Remote control is possible either via SNMP or the Rohde & Schwarz
GB2PP protocol and specified in a separate interface control document
(ICD).
The commands on the LAN interface between the radio and a VDL ground
computer are specified in a separate ICD.
Please contact your sales representative to obtain the ICD or MIB
documents.
