Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 4 | Main System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 6 4 Main System Components This chapter describes the main system components of Diversity Ranger. Ranger Carrying Unit (RCU) The Ranger Carrying Unit RCU is based on advanced and easily adjustable mountaineering backpack systems. The RCU has an internal solid frame on which you mount the system components. The unique ergonomic harness and weight distribution of the components places loads carefully onto specific points of the harness to ensure comfort and balance.
Figure 4-1 Diversity Ranger Carrying Unit The RCU offers the following functionality: Ergonomic carrying harness with adjustable straps Note: Refer to the following section for a description on how to adjust the straps. Protective textile cover Rain proof zippers Airflow openings at bottom and top of the pack Internal frame with movable flaps to hold and protect system components Rubber feet at the bottom to provide enough clearance for airflow and to absorb mechanical shocks Axle for trolley wheels Usage The RCU is a specially designed carrying harness. Follow the recommendations in this section to carry Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 4 | Main System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 7 Diversity Ranger in a safe and comfortable way. More specifically, you can adjust the straps and belts so that you carry the bulk of the Ranger weight on your hips and not on your back. Note: Before you perform the following steps, ensure that you have installed the system configuration that you intend to use. To put the RCU on your back 1. Loosen all of the straps. 2. Grasp the carrying grip above the harness on the back of the pack and lift Ranger onto a chair, table, and so on. Important: If no such object is nearby, lift Ranger onto one of your thighs and maintain your grip on the loop. To prevent injury, do not attempt to lift Ranger directly from the ground to your shoulders. 3. Slip your free arm through a shoulder strap and then slip the other arm through the other shoulder strap.
To adjust and position the RCU on your back Important: Have someone help you to make the initial adjustments and ensure that you follow these adjustment steps in sequence. 1. Align the RCU so that your hips are in the middle of the hip belt, snap the center buckles together, and then tighten both of the hip belt straps so that the buckle is in the middle.
2. Pull the shoulder straps until the padding is snug against your shoulders. Note: Do not tighten the straps completely as this action shifts the load distribution from your hips to your shoulders.
3. Pull the upper positioning straps to pull the top part of the RCU close to your back.
Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 4 | Main System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 8 Note: The straps are properly adjusted if the straps form an angle between 20 and 30 to the horizontal plane. If the angle is less than 20, extend the length of the straps. If the angle is greater than 30, shorten the length of the straps. 4. Move the sternum strap up or down to a comfortable position. The sternum strap relieves the shoulder joints of loads, stabilizes the shoulder straps and prevents the RCU from slipping from the shoulders.
5. Snap the buckles of the sternum strap together and tighten until the strap is almost straight. To adjust the length of back carrying system 1. Unfasten the hook and loop straps in the middle of the back carrying system, that is, on the part of the RCU pack that touches your back. 2. Pull both straps out of the loops on the guide system. 3. Move the straps to a new position on the guide system. To lengthen the shoulder straps, move the straps to a higher loop position. To shorten the shoulder straps, move the straps to a lower loop position. 4. Thread the lower hook and loop strap through the lower or upper loop position. Important: For the upper three adjustments of the back carrying system, you must thread the upper position strap of the shoulder strap through the upper slide locks close to the carrying grip. For lower adjustments, you need to use the lower slide locks of the back carrying system.
5. Thread the upper hook and loop strap through the third loop above the loop that you selected.
6. Close the upper hook and loop strap and then close the lower hook and loop strap.
7. Adjust the position of the RCU on your back again. Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 4 | Main System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 9 To gain access to the components inside the RCU Important: Always lift or move the RCU with the grip near the shoulder belts. Do not lift the RCU by the internal aluminum frame. To prevent Electrostatic Discharges (ESD), always touch the right side of the Ranger rack (MPR) first before you interact with the system, for example, to exchange channels, cables, SIMs, and so on. 1. Lay the harness side of the RCU on the ground or prop the back of the RCU against a wall. 2. Pull the zipper on the top right side of the RCU around and up to the left top side. 3. Pull the textile cover toward the front of the RCU. 4. Unlock the hook and loop straps that secure the plastic side flaps. 5. Pull open the plastic side panels. 6. Pull open the top plastic flap and secure the flap with the hook if the RCU is in an inclined upright position. 7. Pull open the plastic flap on the right side of the MPR right side to gain access to the MPR power connectors, LED, and switch. Important: To gain access to the MPR side panel, for example, to exchange the battery, pull the zipper on the top right side down to the base of the RCU. You do not need to completely remove the back cover of the RCU. Measurement Processing Rack (MPR)

Align the holes in the holder clip on the PSC cable with the standoffs on the front of the MPM and slide the holder clip on the PSC cable over the PSC connector. 5. Secure the holder clip in place with 2 screws and washers. Upgrading an MPM With a Mini PCI Express Data Card This section describes how to install a Mini PCI Express data card in an MPM. To install a Mini PCI Express data card This procedure requires the upgrade kit for released Mini PCI Express data cards. 1. Shut down the system and remove the MPM from the MPR. Note: See the "Exchanging an MPM" section on page 16 for a description on how to remove an MPM. 2. Disconnect the SATA and power cables to gain access to the Mini PCI Express slot. 3. Connect the RF pigtails from the upgrade kit to the Min PCI Express data card. 4. Insert the Mini PCI Express data card into the slot on the MPM. 5. Secure the card in place with the screws from the upgrade kit. 6. Remove the RF1 and RF2 covers from the front panel of the MPM. 7. Push the SMA connectors of the RF pigtails through the RF holes and use the nuts to secure the connectors in place. 8. Insert the MPM into the MPR. Note: See the "Exchanging an MPM" section on page 16 for a description on how to insert an MPM. 9. If necessary, install the Windows driver for the card and the relevant Diversity software update. Note: If you are unsure, contact SwissQual Support Battery Status Display and Alarm During operation the MPR senses the voltage levels at PWR IN1, PWR IN2 and correlates this voltage to an estimated percentage range of the remaining battery capacity. LED IN1 or IN2 displays the resulting value. For more information, see Table 4-5. You can also view the same percentage range for both inputs in NQView on the PC. To check the battery status without turning on the system, turn the power switch to the ON position for less than 4 seconds and then turn the switch off. A LED indicates the status for 20 seconds. Note: The Battery Status Display is active even if you use an external power supply instead of a battery. Table 4-5 Battery Status Display by LED IN1, IN2 Colour Activity Battery Status Description Off Off No valid input voltage or system is Off Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 4 | Main System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 18 Colour Activity Battery Status Description Green Steady 100 75% Green Flashing 0.5 Hz 75 50% Orange Steady 50 25% Orange Flashing 0.5 Hz 25 10% Orange Flashing 1 Hz 10 5% Audible alarm beeps when the battery level is less than 7 %. When this alarm sounds, you need to replace the battery immediately, to stop the measurements in a controlled fashion, or to shut down the system. The remaining operation time, which is usually an average of 5 minutes, depends highly on the use case. Orange Flashing 5 Hz <5% System is shutting down and will be switched OFF after the MPMs have shut down or after 4 minutes. Low Battery Alarm and Automatic Shutdown When both input voltages from PWR IN1 and PWR IN2 drop below 7% of the remaining capacity, the audible low battery alarm in the MPR begins to beep for 600 ms every 4 seconds. If you do not take immediate action, the MPR initiates an automatic shutdown of the Diversity software and the MPMs as soon as the remaining battery capacity drops below 5%. When this occurs, the alarm begins to beep for 600 ms every 1.5 seconds. The low battery alarm only triggers when the capacity of the last available battery is too low, that is, the alarm does not trigger when the capacity of the first battery drops below the threshold value. Depending on your use case, Ranger can continue to operate for an average of 5 minutes. Important: You cannot stop the automatic shutdown process after the low battery alarm is triggered. After such a shutdown, you need to turn the I/O switch OFF before you can restart the MPR. Depending on your system power supply configuration, you can take one of the following actions to recover from a low battery alarm: Only one battery (PWR IN1): Connect a charged battery or office power supply to the free PWR IN2 connector and then disconnect the discharged battery from the MPR. Both batteries are connected to the MPR: Disconnect the discharged battery from PWR IN1 and then connect a charged battery or office power supply to PWR IN1. After you connect the new power source, you can exchange the nearly discharged battery from PWR IN2. BDC-100W attached to CHR and both batteri es are present: Ensure that the vehicle engine is running, the BDC-100W is connected to a cigarette lighter socket, and that the MPR and BDC-100W are ON. If possible, replace the discharged battery that is connected to PWR IN1. BDC-300W attached to CHR: Ensure that the vehicle engine is running, the BDC-300W is attached to the MPR, and that the BDC-300W is ON. If the alarm persists, stop the measurements, manually shut down the system, and then check the BDC-300W cables. Important: If you cannot perform any of these actions, stop the measurements in Diversity TestManager on the PC and shut down the system with the I/O button. Otherwise, the automatic shutdown procedure occurs. However, due to limitations of Windows 7, some of the MPMs that are actively running a test might not receive the shutdown command and instead experience a hard shutdown, which can result in a crashed installation. Battery Hot-Swap The integrated Battery hot-swap functionality allows you to disconnect and connect valid power sources, for Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 4 | Main System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 19 example, batteries or an office power supply, to the MPR during operation without the need for a system shutdown and start cycle. This hot-swap capability allows you to operate Diversity Ranger continuously. However, one power source must maintain more than the minimum input voltage during operation, that is, the corresponding LED must be on or blinking. Important: The MPR does not have an integrated Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). If you disconnect both power inputs, the MPMs immediately shut off, which can crash Windows on the MPMs. As explained in MPR Side Panel section on page 11, the PWR IN1 is the primary power input for Ranger. As long as the input voltage through PWR IN1 remains higher than the minimum input voltage, the system components will only draw power from PWR IN1. This behavior ensures that batteries at PWR IN1 and PWR IN2 discharge in sequence. When the voltage level at PWR IN1 drops below the minimum threshold, for example, when you disconnect a power source or a discharged battery, and a valid input voltage is present at PWR IN2, for example, from a second battery, the system begins to draw power from PWR IN2. If the voltage level at PWR IN1 returns to the valid range, for example, when you attach a charged battery, the system switches back to PWR IN1, that is, the first served power input. To prevent fast toggling between the power inputs, the input voltage thresholds do have a certain lag. Example Scenario To minimize weight, you start a Diversity Ranger measurement campaign with one battery. When the low battery alarm sounds, you insert another battery in the second battery bay and connect the battery to PWR IN2 of the MPR. The MPR switches to the new battery and you remove the first battery. This scenario still requires that you take two batteries with you. In other words, you could also start off the campaign with both batteries in place. The system would then automatically switch to the second battery when the capacity of the first battery falls below the threshold value. Phone Support Module (PSM)
Figure 4-6 PSM Overview The PSM provides the following functionality: Mechanical support for the mobile phone Provides power to the mobile phone by electronically emulating the phones battery. You can use the Diversity software to turn on this emulation or to force a hard reset of the phone. The default status is OFF.

Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 5 | Auxiliary System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 28 Ranger Battery Charger DC Input 100W (BDC-100W)
Figure 5-4 Ranger Battery Charger DC Input (BDC-100W) The BDC-100W allows you to extend the battery based operation time of Diversity Ranger or to recharge a BAP-400WH battery pack in a vehicle, that is, you can plug the BDC-100W to the cigarette lighter socket of your vehicle. The BDC-100W offers the following functionality: Power input cable with a cigarette lighter plug Input voltage: 9.5 16 Vdc DC Output: 16.8 Vdc with a maximum output power of 100W CC / CV charging curve for LiIon battery packs External Interfaces The following sections describe the interfaces that are visible and accessible at the BDC-100W. BDC-100W Front Panel
Figure 5-5 BDC-100W Front Panel
Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 5 | Auxiliary System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 29 BDC-100W Back Panel
Figure 5-6 BDC-100W Back Panel Usage Important: The BDC-100W does not support brown out protection for the vehicle battery, that is, you need to turn the engine on when the BDC-100W is on; otherwise, turn off the BDC-100W when the vehicle is off for a longer period. Installation To install the BDC-100W Important: Do not connect a BDC-100W to an OPS-300W as this can destroy both components. 1. Ensure that a battery is connected to PWR IN2 of the MPR. 2. Connect the input cable to the cigarette lighter socket of the vehicle and the output cable to the CHR input connector of the MPR. Depending on the power that the system draws, the BDC-100W charger can now provide power to the system or charge the battery. Using the BDC-100W as an Additional Power Source for Vehicle Use Case In this scenario, if the system power consumption remains at 100 W, for example, during measurements with low power demands or when the system is idle, the BDC-100W provides all of the power and the battery that is connected to PWR IN2 acts as a UPS. Important: Fully charge this battery before you start the campaign. Do not connect the battery to PWR IN1 as this setup would bypass the power input from the charger until the battery completely discharges. You can, however, connect two batteries to the PWR IN1 and PWR IN2 inputs respectively. When the consumption rises above 100 W, the battery also provides power and the operation time becomes limited. To determine the remaining operation time, see the following section. Operation Time Calculation If only one battery is connected to Ranger, that is, to PWR IN2, use the following equation to determine the remaining operation time: T_operation_BDC-100W_1_batt =0.8 * 400Wh / (P_system 100W) For example, the following equation is for a campaign that consumes 140W: Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 5 | Auxiliary System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 30 T_operation_BDC-100W_1_batt =0.8 * 400Wh / (140W 100W) =8h You can extend the operation time by connecting an additional battery to PWR IN1; however, this battery will not be recharged. The operation time with the additional battery is: T_operation_BDC-100W_2_batt =(0.8*400Wh / P_system) +0.8 * 400Wh / (P_system 100W) For example, for a system that consumes 140W: T_operation_BDC-100W_2_batt =(0.8*400Wh / 140W) +0.8 * 400Wh / (140W 100W) =10.3 h Using the BDC-100W Charger to Charge the BAP-400WH Battery Pack If you connect the BDC-100W to the CHR input of the battery that is connected to PWR IN2 of the MPR, the charging activity depends on system status. If system is off, consumes less than 100W, or draws power from PWR IN1, the battery at PWR IN2 charges. The charging time is as follows: T_charge =1.1 * 400Wh / (100 W P_system) For example, the charging time for an empty battery that is connected to a powered down system is: T_charge =1.1 * 400Wh / (100W 0) =4.4 h If you connect a BAP-400WH battery pack directly to a BDC-100W charger, the charging time is approximately 4.4h. Important: You cannot charge an empty battery through PWR IN1with the BDC-100W. Ranger Battery Charger DC Input 300W (BDC-300W)
Figure 5-7 Ranger Battery Charger DC Input (BDC-300W) The BDC-300W charger allows you to use Diversity Ranger in a vehicle without any restrictions regarding autonomy. The BDC-300W offers the following functionality: Input voltage: 9.5 16 Vdc DC Output: 16.8 Vdc with a maximum output power of 300W CC / CV charging curve for LiIon based battery packs Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 5 | Auxiliary System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 31 External Interfaces The following sections describe the external interfaces on the BDC-300W charger. BDC-300W Front Panel
Figure 5-8 BDC-300W Front Panel BDC-300W Back Panel
Figure 5-9 BDC-300W Back Panel Usage Important: The BDC-300W does per default switch off at input voltages below 11.5V, this is to protect the vehicle battery. However it is recommended, that the BDC-300W is always turned off, when the vehicle is off for a longer period. Installation Due to power considerations, the BDC-300W must be connected directly to the vehicle battery, and installed by a skilled technician. For a proper installation use the DCM 300W Power Supply Cable it will be supplied together with the BDC-300W. The cable is specified as followed: 10mm2 copper wire: Heat, oil, and gasoline resistant Crimp connections 10mm2: Copper crimp connections Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 5 | Auxiliary System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 32 Main voltage connecting plug: High current capacity (50A constant load capacity), fully insulated, short-circuit as well as reverse-polarity protected Max voltage drop = 0.7 Volt at max. load (33A): If you exceed these values, you need to check the cable connections Main fuse (50A): Must be mounted in the positive cable within 30 cm of the battery
To install the BDC-300W 1. Connect the BDC-300W charger directly to the vehicle battery, by using the DCM 300W Power Supply Cable. Important: Do not connect the charger to the cigarette lighter socket. 2. Mount the BDC-300W in the air-conditioned passenger compartment within range of the power input cable from the battery. 3. Connect the power output cable to CHR of the MPR. Important: Do not connect the power output cable directly to the OPS-300W power supply as this connection can destroy both components. Using the BDC-300W Charger as a Power Source for a Vehicle Use Case The BDC-300W charger can supply power to the system under a full load and can recharge the battery that is connected to PWR IN2 of the MPR. The charger cannot recharge a battery that is connected to PWR IN1. If you connect the output of the BDC-300W to the CHR of the MPR, you can use the following equation to calculate the charging time for the battery that is connected to PWR IN2: T_charge =1.1 * 400Wh / (300 W P_system) For example, the charging time for the empty battery on the system under full load: T_charge =1.1 * 400Wh / (300W 200W) =4.4 Important: Since the battery at PWR IN2 acts as UPS, ensure that you fully charge the battery before you start a vehicle based campaign. Using BDC-300W as a Charger for the BAP-400WH Battery Pack If you want, you can also connect the BDC-300W charger directly to the BAP-400WH battery pack. The charging time is approximately 2 hours. Important: You cannot charge an empty battery at PWR IN1. Extended features optional installation The BDC-300W can optionally be controlled by the vehicle ignition signal. This may be useful such that the BDC-300W does not need to be turned off manually by the user, e.g. it will not be forgotten to switch off the BDC-300W in case where the vehicle is turned off for a longer period. On the other side, this will also limit the charge process to be active, while ignition is on. The BDC-300W has a brown out limit to protect a vehicle battery from getting deep discharged, as described above already. The BDC-300W however is able to run with input voltage as low as 9.5V, but this feature must be activated by the user, as described later in this section. Diversity Ranger Hardware Manual 2000 - 2012 SwissQual AG Chapter 5 | Auxiliary System Components CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS 33 Control the BDC-300W by the ignition signal 1. Remove the wire connection from Pin 1 to Pin 2 of the feature activation connector (green wire shown in the picture below) 2. Connect the ignition signal (ON =>9.5 - 16V; OFF =><9V) to Pin 2 of the feature activation connector. Pin 1 is not needed in this case any longer. 3. Turn ON the BDC-300W Main-Switch permanently such that it can be controlled by the ignition signal. Note: The BDC-300W can be still switched off manually by the Main-Switch =>the main-switch over rides the ignition signal.
Figure 5-10 BDC-300W extended feature activation connector Use extended input voltage range 1. Bridge Pin 3 and Pin 4 of the feature activation connector, with a piece of wire (similar to the green wire shown above). Important: If the input voltage range is opened down to 9.5V, this may lead to deep discharged vehicle battery!!! Batteries which are deep discharged are subject to get destroyed or at least degraded permanently!!! It is in the users responsibility to avoid any deep discharged batteries, if the extended input voltage range feature is used!!! Important: Always turn off the BDC-300W, when the vehicle is off for a longer period, as the battery may get deep discharged down to 9V now!!!
Note: It is may be good practice to used the extended input voltage feature only in combination with controlling the BDC-300W by the ignition signal. Doing so makes sure the BDC-300W is always switched of when the vehicle is off!
