General Information

The HLN3333B Repeater Interface Communications Kit (RICK) is a device that connects between two Radius series mobile radios to construct an intermittent duty radio repeater. The unit can be configured as single or bi-directional, and can be used in single or crossband applications (depending on radios used).

The manual that has all of the setup and cabling instructions for the RICK is Motorola part number 6880901Z79. It is recommended that all users of a RICK purchase this manual. It covers much more detail on the system than can be presented here.

A typical RICK kit consists of:

  • HLN9809 RICK Board
  • HLN9822 RICK Hardware
  • HKN9837 RICK Intercabling
  • JLN9839 Mounting Hardware

If you want to be able to use the Setup/Knockdown features of the RICK, you must configure the transmit radio for Ignition Control. To do this, you must clip or remove fuse F801 or jumper JU801 on the logic board of the transmitter radio.

Radio and Repeater Configuration Compatibility

Radius

The following compatibility chart is from the Motorola RICK manual, and describes the radios that the RICK is intended to be interfaced with. This is the list Motorola provides, there may be others that will work with the RICK as well, some Maxtracs being one model. Both 8 and 16 channel GM300's are compatible with the RICK, their configuration is covered in an addendum to the RICK manual.

Standard Configurations

Receiver RadioTransmitter Radio

Radius

The M200 series radios include the newer models M208 and M216 or the older models M206 and M214 with either the B308 option for the Local Setup/Knockdown operation or the B833 option for the Remote/Local Setup/Knockdown operation.

The VLC configuration requires radios with logic boards date coded 8937 and later, which have been shipping since late 1989. The date codes are ink-stamped on the top surface of the PC board.

All of this information came from the Motorola Radius Service Manual 6880101W58A circa 1988/1989 with lots of revision sheets. All of the boards listed below are used in the MaxTrac mobile radios; see the MaxTrac Detailed Service Manual for schematics. All electronic parts are interchangeable except the firmware, which governs the radio's model number and features. (You can replace the EPROM with MaxTrac firmware but then you'd need to use MaxTrac software to program it, and the model number would change.) The front panel labels and volume control knob are slightly different. The RADMBL (HVN9173 or HVN9174) DOS-only RSS package is used to program the Radius radios. These radios are all conventional; trunking was only available on the MaxTrac models.
M100 series have 2 modes. M206 series have 6 modes. M214 series have 14 modes and seem to be the only ones that offer Scanning. They require an expanded logic board (one with firmware on an EPROM). Motorola introduced the M208 and M216 series, which have 8 and 16 modes respectively. The model numbers have Revision letter B for the 8 and 16 mode radios. Channel Steering is also available on radios with the 16-pin accessory jack. The only Radius firmware IC is HLN9277A.
This is not meant to be an all-encompassing, know-all, do-all article about Motorola Radius radios. As such, there may be additional, newer information available from other sources. It's just a summary of information extracted from the above-mentioned service manual. For all intents and purposes, the Radius models mentioned here are identical to the MaxTrac 50, 100, and 300 models documented elsewhere. A lot of assemblies can be mixed, matched, and swapped between the two radio series. The radios and RSS are no longer sold but some of the more common parts are still available from Motorola.
