GENERAL INFORMATION.
SCOPE.
This Technical Bulletin (TB) provides information and procedures for installing Embedded GPS Receiver (EGR)
CCA into the RT-1523E(C)/U and the RT-1523F(C)/U.
Refer to the latest issue of DA Pam 25-30 to determine whether there are new editions, changes, or additional
publications pertaining to the equipment.
Reports of Maintenance and Unsatisfactory Equipment. Department of the Army forms and procedures used
for equipment maintenance will be those prescribed by DA Pam 750-8, as contained in Maintenance
Management Update.
Reporting of Item and Packaging Discrepancies. Fill out and forward SF 364 ( Discrepancy Report) as
prescribed in AR 735-11-2.
Destruction of Army electronics materiel to prevent enemy use shall be in accordance with TM 750-244-2.
If your equipment needs improvement, let us know. Send us an EIR. You, the user, are the only one who can tell
us what you don't like about your equipment. Let us know why you don't like the design or performance. If you
have Internet access, the easiest and fastest way to report problems or suggestions is to go to
https://aeps.ria.army.mil/aepspublic.cfm (scroll down and choose the “Submit Quality Deficiency Report” bar). The
Internet form lets you choose to submit an Equipment Improvement Recommendation (EIR), a Product Quality
Deficiency Report (PQDR or a Warranty Claim Action (WCA). You may also submit your information using an SF
368 (Product Quality Deficiency Report). You can send your SF 368 via e-mail, regular mail, or facsimile using the
addresses/facsimile numbers specified in DA PAM 750-8, The Army Maintenance Management System (TAMMS)
Users Manual. We will send you a reply

1. INTRODUCTION. This Technical Bulletin provides information and procedures for installing Embedded
GPS Receiver (EGR) CCA into the RT-1523E(C)/U and the RT-1523F(C)/U.
2. PURPOSE OF INSTALLATION. Provide RT-1523E(C)/U and the RT-1523F(C)/U with EGR capability.
3. ITEMS TO BE INSTALLED. Embedded GPS Receiver (EGR) CCA will be installed into the RT-1523E(C)/U
and the RT-1523F(C)/U.
4. PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION. Either a Manpack or Vehicular GPS kit will be issued for this
procedure. Upon opening the kit, the contents should be inspected and compared with the appropriate list below
to verify all items are included.

6. INSTALLATION PROCEDURES. The following instructions provide detailed information for installation of
the Embedded GPS Receiver (EGR) CCA and required hardware.
CAUTION
Static electricity can damage the RT modules. Ground the RT and all tools before
installing/removing a module. Use a grounded wrist strap when handling a
module.
CAUTION
Steps marked with HCP must be performed exactly as written. They are critical
in maintaining the nuclear hardness of the RT. Seals must not be damaged. All
screws must be torqued to the limits specified in the installation procedures.
NOTE
Procedures apply to the RT-1523E(C)/U and RT-1523F(C)/U unless otherwise stated.

NOTE
At this time, GPS Time Load Operational Check (LIT 780) is a PLGR check. It does not
test the EGR CCA and will fail. During Function Switch BIT Check of operational check,
when operator instructions indicate to connect P4 to UUT J4 (PLGR) do not connect P4.
Upon failure of GPS Time Load (LIT 780) the debug mode screen will appear twice. Both
