Chapter 111INTRODUCTIONExternal extra rugged digital high power VHF radio transceiver programmable in frequencyranges from 138 to 174 MHz. It has GMSK, DBPSK, DQPSK, 4FSK, D8PSK, and D16QAMmodulations with advanced forward error correction and data scrambling. The output power isprogrammable from 320 mW to 35 W. Figure 1-1. HPT135It takes incoming data, modulates it with GMSK, FSK, PSK or most spectrum efficient QAMmodulation and transmits it at RF power output levels from 25 dBm up to 45 dBm operating inVHF frequency band 138 to 174 MHz.The VHF transceiver is also capable of receiving RF signals through a 50 Ohm impedanceexternal antenna port. These signals are demodulated and output to the JAVAD GNSS receiver. HPT135 delivers a reliable radio link at up to 38.4 kbps over the air for the 25 kHz channelspacing, 19.2 kbps for 12.5 kHz, and 9.6 kbps for 6.25 kHz.The unmatched features of HPT135 include data scrambling, frequency hopping, user selectabletransmit output power level, low power consumption sleep modes, autoscanning for base.The unit’s user settings can be changed through the built-in Command Line interface (CLI), TracySoftware or through ModemVU.

Chapter 215www.javad.com CONFIGURATION2.1. Powering HPT 135To Power the HPT135, you can use the Battery kit 2 (p/n 99-587100-10).Figure 2-1. Powering HPT4352.1.1. Power supply requirementsA single external power supply is necessary to operate HPT135. The external power supply needsto be Listed for US and Certified for EU countries, it needs also to be a Limited Power Source andrated for Outdoor Use and have an output rated for +12V, 10A. This may not be the same range asother JAVAD GNSS products with which you are familiar.CAUTION:To avoid the introduction of hazards when operating and installing, before connecting of theequipment to the supply, make sure that the supply meets local and national safety ordi-nances and matches the equipment’s voltage and current requirements.CAUTION:Never attempt any maintenance or cleaning of the supply while plugged in. Always removesupply from AC power before attempting service or cleaning.
ConfigurationPowering HPT 135Power supply requirements16 www.javad.comWarning:If the voltage supplied is below the minimum specification, the modem will suspend operation. If thevoltage supplied is above the maximum specification, the modem may be permanently damaged,voiding your warranty.Make sure cords are located so that will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwisesubjected to damage or stress. Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord or plug –replace immediately. To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment, pull by the plug bodyrather than the output cord when disconnecting the equipment.Do not operate the supply if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwisedamaged. Do not disassemble the supply. Warning:Before connecting the external power source and the modem, make sure that the power sourcematches the modem’s voltage and current requirements.
