When preparing a new digital DVB-S Preset, you must first select an existing digital DVB-S Preset from either the digital DVB-S factory default Preset or from your own custom digital DVB-S Presets. The selected Preset will be used as a “make-from” to prepare the new digital DVB-S Preset configuration.Please note that while factory default Presets may be used to prepare a new Preset configuration, these factory default Presets cannot be changed or deleted. They can only be used as “make-froms”. When the new configuration is prepared using the factory default Preset, it cannot be saved with the factory Preset number or Preset name. A new Preset number and Preset name must be assigned to the new Preset.NoPlease Wait!YesWhen using a custom Preset as a “make-from”, the new Preset should be saved with a new Preset number. When you save the new Preset, the Preset number will automatically be increased to the next available Preset number. If you select an existing Preset number when saving the new Preset, the original custom Preset will be overwritten and cannot be recovered. The only way to restore a Preset that has been overwritten is to re-enter the custom Preset data from scratch.If you are updating configuration settings on an existing custom Preset, when you save the configuration settings, the Preset number will automatically be increased to the next available Preset number. You must enter and save the configuration settings using the original Preset number.Note In the following steps, the color LCD display option buttons and pull-down menu options may be selected using either the touch screen or the function keys and the SEL key.1.

When preparing a new digital IP Preset, you must first select an existing digital IP Preset from either the digital IP factory default Preset or from your own custom digital IP Presets. The selected Preset will be used as a “make-from” to prepare the new digital IP Preset configuration.Please note that while factory default digital IP Presets may be used to prepare a new Preset configuration, these factory default Presets cannot be changed or deleted. They can only be used as “make-froms”. When the new configuration is prepared using the factory default Preset, it cannot be saved with the factory Preset number or Preset name. A new Preset number and Preset name must be assigned to the new Preset.When using a custom Preset as a “make-from”, the new Preset should be saved with a new Preset number. If you select an existing Preset number when saving the new Preset, the original custom Preset will be overwritten and cannot be recovered. The only way to restore a Preset that has been overwritten is to re-enter the custom Preset data from scratch.If you are updating configuration settings on an existing custom Preset, when you save the configuration settings, the Preset number will automatically be increased to the next available Preset number. You must enter and save the configuration settings using the original Preset number.Note In the following steps, the color LCD display option buttons and pull-down menu options may be selected using either the touch screen or the function keys and the SEL key.1. Verify the MTX5000 IDU is powered up. See ”Powering the MTX5000 System” on page 3-7.

The wiring harness contains RF/Power cables and function cables. Supplying main power to the MTX5000 IDU is covered in Section 6.6 on page 6-4.6.8.1 Steps to Define the HarnessPerform the following steps to define the wiring harness between the IDU and the ODU.1. Select the type of RF/power cabling required. See ”Select the Type of RF/Power Cabling” .2. Select the function cables required. See Section 6.8.3 on page 6-7.3. Determine the size of the wiring harness required. See Section 6.8.4 on page 6-9.4. When the wiring harness is fabricated, go to “Installing the Fabricated Harness” on page 6-13.6.8.2 Select the Type of RF/Power CablingThe first step is to determine what type of RF and DC power cabling you will be using to connect the IDU to the ODU. There are three different options:• Triax connectors (RF, control, and DC power in one cable). See Figure 6-3 on page 6-6.• Type “N” connectors (RF and control on one cable, DC power in another cable). See Figure 6-4 on page 6-7.• TNC connectors (RF and control in one cable, DC power in another cable). See Figure 6-4 on page 6-7.
Installation 6-6MTX5000 User and Technical ManualThe MTX5000 system may be ordered with Triax, Type “N”, or TNC cable connectors. Existing installations may use Triax, Type “N”, or TNC cabling. ‘ Special Note - Triax Installations Over time, flexing and vibration can cause the connections inside the Triax connector to deteriorate, leading to high resistance in the DC circuit paths. This, in turn, can cause erratic and intermittent problems with the MTX5000 system.MRC recommends you avoid this possibility by performing the following:• Install the Triax connector carefully, following the steps in “Installing Triax Connectors” on page A-1.• Support the Triax cable so that any movement of the cable does not apply stress to the Triax connector.Figure 6-3: Triax Cabling - TypicalRF UNIT 2TRIAXCONNECTORRF UNIT 2TRIAXCONNECTORRF UNIT 1TRIAXCONNECTORRF UNIT 1TRIAXCONNECTOR ANT CONTROLRFU POWER OUTRFU 1 RFU 2HVLCPANT2BAND2GND+- - + +- - + +12POWER INNOTE: Connections from the ODU to the antenna are always Type “N”.

Refer to Table 6-2 to locate typical dimensions, as shown in Figure 6-5. Note these are only typical dimensions. Your harness may be different. The formula used to determine theoretical end-to-end cable lengths (See Figure 6-5) is as follows:Overall Length = (DIM A - 5 ft.) x 2 + DIM B + DIM CFor example, with a mast height of 58 ft., minus 5 ft. inside the truck = 53 ft. x 2 = 106 ft. + 10 ft. + 20 ft. = 136 ft.

Installation 6-10MTX5000 User and Technical ManualMRC strongly recommends using a 4-conductor, 16 AWG wire combination for DC power that supports Standard and High Power ODUs. Specifically, wiring should be in accordance with Table 6-3 for Standard ODU use and Table 6-4 on page 6-11 for High Power ODU use.MRC recommends that installations of the MTX5000 IDU and ODU be carefully considered, especially where the DC power to the ODU is concerned. All ODUs used to support digital (COFDM) transmission require higher linearity and therefore require more input current to the power amplifiers to achieve acceptable levels of Modulation Error Ratio (MER) performance. This is especially true of the optional High Power ODUs.For new Nycoil installations where the cable length is 160 feet (48.8 M) or less, MRC suggests two 16 AWG multi-strand conductors in parallel for both power and return. In a new installation, this is less likely an issue, however for an existing installation, other alternatives may be more appropriate. The following factory recommendation applies to existing installations. At the very least, all cabling in an existing installation must be inspected to ensure that no corrosion or broken strands are present, especially if new conductors are not used.The acceptable cable lengths for existing Standard power ODU installations, or alternatives to the recommendation, are provided in Table 6-3 as a function of mast height. The recommended lengths are end-to-end cable length vs. mast height. The acceptable cable lengths for high power ODU installations, or alternatives to the recommendation, are provided in Table 6-4 on page 6-11 as a function of mast height. The recommended lengths are end-to-end cable length vs. mast height.Table 6-3: Existing Installation Cable Lengths - Standard Power ODU Mast Height RF Connector TypeMinimum Wiring for Power and ReturnAssumed Maximum Cable Length< 58 Feet Triax Triax 160 ft.

8 Theory of Operation 8-1MTX5000 User and Technical ManualTheory of Operation8.1 Chapter OverviewThis chapter provides additional details about the design and function of the MTX5000 Transmitter System (MTX5000). This chapter is intended to complement information contained in the “Product Description” Chapter on page 2-1. The descriptions in this chapter assume you are already familiar with the information contained in Chapter 2. We recommend you review that chapter before beginning to read this one.Here are the topics covered:8.2 System Architecture8.2.1 GeneralThe MTX5000 is a van-mounted, High Definition (HD) ready, Topic PageSystem Architecture 8-1General 8-1Architecture 8-1MPEG Encoding and COFDM Transmission 8-2Analog Video Encoding and FM Modulation 8-2MTX5000 User Interface 8-2ODU RF Output 8-3MTX5000 Internal Software 8-3Outdoor Unit Details 8-5video transmission system capable of both analog and digital operation in different formats. The MTX5000 system provides a sophisticated user interface with an intuitive keypad scheme, touch screen, and an adjustable color LCD display. The MTX5000 system consists of the MTX5000 Indoor Unit (IDU) and the mast-mounted Outdoor Unit(s) (ODU).A fully equipped MTX5000 package is HD ready and provides a robust HD link from field to studio. Several digital video input formats are accepted, as well as analog composite for Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial (DVB-T) and analog FM transmission. In addition, the MTX5000 can accept several digital audio input formats and up to four analog audio inputs for analog or digital transmission.The MTX5000 has several mast-mounted ODU configurations available. These ODUs contain integrated RF up conversion circuitry and high power RF amplifiers for maximum power and signal quality. With the demands of digital modulation, the ODUs have been optimized for improved Modulation Error Ratio/Error Vector Magnitude (MER/EVM) performance with digital transmissions.8.2.2 Architecture The MTX5000 system consists of the IDU and the ODU(s). The IDU is responsible for video encoding, modulation, system control, and power distribution. The ODU contains RF up conversion circuitry and a power amplifier.The ODU is mounted at the top of the van mast and is responsible for all aspects of the RF transmission. Modulated signals are passed from the IDU to the ODU using a 70MHz IF signal. In addition, the IDU and ODU communicate through a bidirectional Frequency-Shift Keying (FSK) modem. This FSK link allows the IDU to control, calibrate, and monitor the state of the mast-mounted ODU.
Theory of Operation 8-2MTX5000 User and Technical ManualA digital attenuator in the ODU RF chain allows you to transmit at high or low power or to increment the power in single dB steps for advanced fine tuning.Inside the IDU, a control processor is responsible for configuring the various sub-systems within the radio. The main processor stores radio information in selectable presets that can be recalled by the user. The MTX5000 employs an advanced MPEG video encoder and digital modulator. The MTX5000 includes the FMT modulator, COFDM modulator and MPEG encoder, DC power supply, and signal control and distribution boards, depending upon the options contained in your MTX5000. A typical functional block diagram of the MTX5000 is shown in Figure 8-1 on page 8-4.8.2.3 MPEG Encoding and COFDM TransmissionThe MTX5000 is capable of encoding both Standard Definition and High Definition video (depending on license). Available inputs include SD Serialized Digital Interface video (SD-SDI), HD-SDI, and Composite Video (CV). Audio input formats include analog, AES/EBU, and AC-3 SMPTE-302. The encoder is also capable of encoding an RS-232 signal as Wayside data.The MTX5000 is capable of generating a fully DVB-T compliant output signal. This provides a robust digital link in any hostile transmission environment.8.2.4 Analog Video Encoding and FM ModulationWhen in the analog FM mode, the MTX5000 will accept a standard composite video input. It will also accept up to four analog audio inputs. The FM analog signal is useful when working with older legacy equipment or when an analog transmission is desired.8.2.5 MTX5000 User InterfaceLocal Mode Operation The MTX5000 IDU front panel provides monitoring and control of the MTX5000 system. The color LCD display panel with touch screen and the function keys are used to select control and diagnostic menu screens for both the IDU and the ODU. The user interacts with the system through the touch-screen or function keys. The user interface is broken into a normal user mode and a system setup or advanced features mode. Normal user mode menus permit basic radio control without exposing you to the more complicated setup features available in the advanced features sections. The advanced features can be password protected to prevent an unwitting user from changing critical settings.Option buttons displayed on the IDU color LCD display panel are used to control Preset selection, RF band selection, channel selection, offset selection, antenna selection, antenna polarization, transmitter operation (on or off), power (low or high), and to monitor the status of the IDU and ODU. For additional information, see the “Routine Operation” Chapter on page 3-1. The front panel color LCD display panel is also used to select local or remote control operation of the MTX5000 system.Remote Mode Operation The MTX5000 system may also be operated from a remote location via the ETHERNET connector mounted on the rear panel of the IDU. The IDU can be connected to a PC at a remote location via your web browser. The remote mode allows you to control the MTX5000 in the normal user mode from the remote location using the PC display, mouse, and keyboard. You cannot perform system setup advanced features from the remote location.
Theory of Operation 8-3MTX5000 User and Technical ManualControl of the local/remote mode of operation can only be controlled from the IDU. You cannot change the local/remote operating mode from the remote location.For more information on remote operation, see “Using the MTX5000 in Remote Mode” on page 3-60. 8.2.6 ODU RF OutputThe MTX5000 communicates with the ODU to set operating frequencies and power levels. A 70 MHz IF signal is up-converted to the RF band of operation. Before up conversion, a digital attenuator adjusts the signal output power based on calibration data and user input.8.2.7 MTX5000 Internal Software The MTX5000 internal software package consists of an embedded controller software package.For additional information on user interface through use of the front panel color LCD display screen with touch screen and function keys, see the “Routine Operation” Chapter on page 3-1.

A Installing Triax Connectors A-1MTX5000 User and Technical ManualInstalling Triax ConnectorsA.1 Appendix OverviewInstalling Triax connectors on a Triax cable is an exacting job. If not performed correctly, it can lead to intermittent or permanent failures due to vibration, moisture, etc.As a service to our customers, MRC is providing a copy of our Triax Cable Assembly Instructions. We have found this procedure to work well and the results to be reliable. A.2 SealingFor any outdoor application, such as mast top connections, we recommend you seal all connections with self-fusing butyl rubber or silicone tape. Ordinary plastic electrical tape and cloth friction tape are not recommended. A good general practice is as follows:• Connect and tighten the connector• Begin wrapping the tape tightly against the enclosure, and wrap in a spiral back toward the cable• Overlap each turn with the next turn by about half its width• Continue wrapping and overlapping until the tape extends at least 2 inches beyond the connector.Self-fusing tape can be purchased from industrial supply companies such as Grainger (www.grainger.com) and McMaster-Carr (www.mcmaster.com). Self-fusing tape is also available at larger hardware stores such as DoitBest.com (www.doitbest.com).COMMUNICATIONSMICROWAVE RADIO

B Analog Color Bar Generator B-1MTX5000 User and Technical ManualAnalog Color Bar GeneratorB.1 Appendix Overview This appendix describes how to set up the optional Analog Color Bar Generator (CBG). The optional CBG is available in either NTSC or PAL versions.The topics covered in this chapter are listed below. Topic PageDescription B-1Functions B-1Operating Modes B-1Configuration B-2 Technical Background B-2Configuration B-2General B-2Entering Characters B-4Preliminary Setup Procedure B-4Configure Text Line A B-8Configure Text Line B B-9Configure Control Line B-9Check the Configuration B-13Configuration Reference B-16Button Functions B-16Full Character Set B-17Character Subsets B-18Delay Values B-18B.2 DescriptionB.2.1 FunctionsThe CBG provides the following functions:• Inserts a color bar pattern conforming to SMPTE Engineering Guideline EG 1-1990 for SMPTE Color Bars • Inserts test tones of 440 Hz and 1 kHz• Lets you create and edit two lines of text that can be added to the color bar display, at locations you select• Allows you to control when the color bars and tones are added to the transmitted signal and when to automatically place the MTX5000 IDU into the standby mode.B.2.2 Operating ModesThe CBG has four operating modes that are selected using the MTX5000 IDU color LCD display panel touch screen and/or function keys. The four operating modes are displayed on the color LCD display panel Color Bars screen and are identified as follows:•Off - Color bars and audio test tones are turned off.•On - Color bars and/or audio test tones are continuously on.•A Gen (Auto Generated) - If a loss of video signal occurs, color bars and/or audio test tones are transmitted after a programmable delay. •A Stby (Auto Standby) - If a loss of video signal occurs, the transmitter is automatically placed into standby (PA turned off).
Analog Color Bar Generator B-2MTX5000 User and Technical ManualB.2.3 Configuration Each of the four operating modes can be configured to meet your needs. Configuration is accomplished using four push button switches mounted on the CBG board. Configuration is normally performed only when the MTX5000 IDU is first installed, or if the CBG has been replaced by the factory. Configuring the CBG will include specifying the following:• If the CBG will generate audio tones, video color bars, or both• What text will be displayed on screen whenever the color bars are displayed. There are two lines of text: Text Line A and Text Line B. Each line contains 16 character fields. Each character field can display any character in the full character set.• Where each text line is displayed on the screen • Which characters in a text line are visible on the default screen and which are hidden• The foreground and background colors of the text lines• The length of time (delay) the CBG will wait after loss of video signal before it begins generating tones and/or bars.Configuration of the CBG consists of selecting the characters for each of the two lines of text and for a seven-character control line.B.2.4 Technical BackgroundThe CBG includes circuits that provide both a video signal, and audio test tones of 1 kHz and 400 Hz on separate audio channels (1 kHz on Audio 1, 440 Hz on Audio 2).Text lines and parameters are stored in memory and are controlled by a microprocessor. A video detection circuit notifies the processor whenever a valid external video signal is present. Non-volatile memory preserves parameters and transmitter ID information. Once set, no battery or other power is required to save these parameters.B.3 ConfigurationB.3.1 General Configuration of the CBG involves using the MTX5000 IDU color LCD display panel touch screen or function keys, four control switches on the CBG board (See Figure B-1 on page B-3), and an external monitor to enter text for the text lines and the numerical parameters for the control line.The MTX5000 IDU must be removed from its mounting rack (if installed). The top cover panel must then be removed to allow connection between the external monitor and the CBG and to allow access to the four control switches. Steps are provided in the following procedures to set all parameters in the CBG. To avoid potential operator problems that could impact operation of the MTX5000 System, the IDU color LCD display panel Color Bars screen Off option must be selected when procedures contained in this Appendix are completed. When performance of these procedures is complete, perform “Select Color Bar Generator Mode” on page 3-52 to select the CGB operating mode required for Analog Preset operations.

Analog Color Bar Generator B-4MTX5000 User and Technical ManualB.3.2 Entering CharactersEntering characters utilizes the four CBG control switches in a similar way to the four arrow keys on a standard computer keyboard. See Figure B-2. In order to maximize your control using only four switches, each switch has multiple functions depending on whether the CBG is in character mode or subset mode.Figure B-2: Button FunctionsCharacter Mode In the character mode, scrolling up or down with switches 1 and 3 will change the highlighted character one character up or down in the full character set. See Table B-3 on page B-17.Subset Mode To make editing the text lines faster, the full character set is divided into subsets. You can jump from one subset to the next instead of scrolling through the full character set one character at a time. In subset mode, scrolling up or down with switches 1 and 3 will change the highlighted character one subset up or down within the list of subsets. See Table B-4 on page B-18.1234UPRIGHTDOWNLEFTHiding Characters If you wish to hide any characters in the default display, press switches 1 and 3 simultaneously while the CBG is in subset mode. That character will show in inverse video and will be hidden from the default display. That character can still be viewed and changed in the editing mode. A black background is a hidden character; a white background is a character that is not hidden. B.3.3 Preliminary Setup Procedure The procedure required to set up the optional Analog Color Bar Generator is contained in the following steps. This procedure must be performed prior to performing any or all of the following procedures.•“Configure Text Line A” on page B-8•“Configure Text Line B” on page B-9•“Configure Control Line” on page B-10•“Check the Configuration” on page B-13WARNING There are electrical conditions of voltage and current in this equipment which can cause death or injury.
