Basic and Detailed Manuals:

• Motorola changed the way they organize service manuals for the Spectra radio models. They are split into a large Detailed service manual and and smaller Basic service manuals.
• The Detailed service manual has the component level schematics for the VHF, UHF, 800 MHz and 900 MHz radios. It also has more in depth theory of operation and step-by-step troubleshooting flowcharts for component level troubleshooting and repair.
• The Basic service manuals do not have the schematics (with an exception, see below), but they do have the specifications, model charts, some generalized theory overview, front panel programming/adjustment instructions, plus troubleshooting and repair instructions. The troubleshooting and repair instructions are descriptions on how to identify failures and radio chassis disassembly / reassembly, not anything like the component level Detailed service manual troubleshooting flowcharts. These manuals do have a few of the Interconnect Board, some control cable, ribbon cable, VIP port accessory schematics and some connector pin outs.
• As you can see, both the Detailed service manual and the appropriate Basic service manual is required for complete documentation of each band of radio. For example: the 68P81074C40 900MHz Basic service manual will allow you to decode a 900 MHz Spectra radio model number, identify error codes, what part of the radio to troubleshoot, even show you where to put the heat sink compound on the PA deck when reassembling the radio, but the component schematics, component level theory explanations and component level troubleshooting flowcharts are only found in the Detailed service manual.

Early and Later Version Manuals:

• There are also two complete, different, versions. An early version and a later version. As far as the Detailed service manuals go, the differences are very hard to find. Most of the changes are to some board part numbers and some part lists. Unless you actually perform component level troubleshooting and repair, it will not really make any difference which version you use for a general reference (assuming you need or want one at all). The early Detailed manual is the only source I know of for the HLN6020 and HLN6078 control head, plus the HLN6019B, HLN6063A and HLN6100A Hear Clear schematics (these are all significantly different from their later version). The later Detailed manual is the only source I know of for the HLN6150A Hear Clear schematic.
• The Basic service manuals have the same setup with early and later versions. Unless you are looking for specific model charts, feature matrixes, etc., use whichever you have on hand for general reference use. The Spectra II (i.e. Spectra E) information is only found in the later manuals. At the time of this writing, the VHF, UHF and 800 MHz early Basic service manuals have been phased out and are no longer available from Motorola.
• The Detailed Supplements can be used with either the early or later version of the Detailed service manual. Also, some parts of the 68P80102W79 SPECTRA 9000 early supplement can be used with the later Detailed service manual.
• The individual Interconnect Board schematics are scattered through the Detailed, Basic, supplements and other control head manuals. There is no definitive single source. Various early manuals are the only source of documentation for the oldest Interconnect Boards.
• A Motorola Mobile Radio parts catalog lists the early version manuals as being for the "A Model" radios and the later version manuals as being for the "B Model" radios.

• The manuals with bold part numbers are the ones I have actually checked. The other manual numbers come from Spectra manuals or the AccessPoint web site.
• *Note: several manuals are required to completely document a VRS. The end of the VRS model number (AASP02, AWSP02, BASP02 and BWSP02 ) will determine which manuals are needed. The AASP02 and BASP02 are VRS units and are housed in an External Options Housing. The AWSP02 and BWSP02 are combination Siren/PA and VRS units, that are both housed in a Siren/PA housing. There is a field conversion for placing a VRS circuit board inside a Siren/PA housing and making it an AWSP02 or BWSP02 (a 26-06360T01 low profile shield is used in the field conversion). Here is a link to the VRS model numbers.
• The PAC-PL and PAC-RT are older vehicle repeater systems. The PAC-PL has no priority resolution ability to prevent multiple mobile transmitters from interfering with each other. The PAC-RT has a priority resolution scheme which is compatible with the later Systems 9000 VRS priority resolution (PAC repeaters are not programmable - you need Vibrasponder tone reeds). A special NKN6442A cable is needed to interface a PAC-PL or PAC-RT with a Spectra radio (I do not know what else may be required?).
• The DTMF Decoder manual documents the optional HLN6151A DTMF decoder circuit board which is required for decoding DTMF. The HLN6150A Hear Clear circuit board also has a DTMF decoder circuit traces built into the circuit board (the Hear Clear circuit board is documented in the later version Detailed Service manual).
• The 68P80102W55-D manual has 938 Securenet Physical Security Housing Option information that was left out of the 68P81081E65 Spectra Desktop Station manual.

• The above unidentified manuals were found through Motorola's AccessPoint web site. However, the manual descriptions were not adequate.
• I suspect the last 2 inexpensive manuals may be operator instruction manuals.
• Any help identifying these manual will be appreciated.
