Do not discard any packing material until told -’ to do so by the can'ier. Also, notify Communication Microwave Corp (COMWAVE) of any damages or of missing materials from the shipment. ” While unpacking, carefully compare the packing list with the Retain original boxes and internal packing materials to adequately protect equipment to be returned to the factory for repairs, upgrades, or modifications. Physical Installation COMWAVE transmitters have been designed to accept standard 19-inch rackmounts with slide rails. Slide rails enable easy access to internal adjustable controls and other maintenance/adjustments. In most cases, COMWAVE provides a system equipment rack layout diagram that will assist in the proper installation and orientation of equipment. The transmitter system requires 8.75” of vertical rack space (including a modulator) Generally, all equipment is mounted in close proximity in the same rack for the convenience of cabling. Mount the slide rails into the rack with the hardware supplied. Use tapered screws for mounting the front brackets (tapered screws allow the drawer to be fully seated). Pull slide rails outward until they lock into place. Carefully align drawer with slide rails and mate. Unlock slide rails by depressing the lock button on each rail while pushing drawer inward. Drawer should slide easily into rack. If binding occurs, rail mounting brackets are in need of adjustment. Loosen brackets and manipulate drawer to seat rails to match receiver drawer. Tighten brackets once free sliding motion has been achieved. System Grounding For proper system operation, it is imperative that the system be adequately grounded, Each individual equipment rack requires grounding to the main building ground When bolting ground wires to racks. sand finish to remove paint ensuring a good bond.

However, moderate temperatures generally extend equipment life. Although the equipment may be operated with relative humidity of up to 95%, the equipment must be protected from conditions which cause condensation within the equipment. If a rear door is used to secure the rack cabinet, forced ventilation through the cabinet is required (600 cfm minimum per transmitter is recommended). An air or temperature interlock should be incorporated for protection against interruption of ventilation. The area should be kept dry and clean, There should be sufficient space in front of the receiver cabinet for the serviceman and test equipment, plus the full extension of the racked 22" deep chassis. A minimum of 36” behind the cabinet should be free for rear cabinet access and air movement. Also, ample room must be available at the cabinet rear for cable placement Safety Considerations This equipment utilizes a grounding plug on all power cords. For personal safety, do not defeat this feature. As with all similar types of equipment, high voltage can be accessed when the chassis cover is removed. Special care should be given in areas of fuses, line switches, and power supplies. Modern high power solid state equipment contains low output voltage power supplies with very high current capability, To prevent severe burns, avoid contact of rings, watches etc, with these circuits. When servicing the transmission line and antenna. care must be taken to avoid exposure to high-energy microwave. onfidm 1 Document #: DOC] 7-000) 2 mt prop: my to COMWAVE and mum be disclosed REV: A mow the priorwritten permission ofCOMWAVE.

Q COMAVE Ill MHz Reference Input to the Transmitter A Theme-n n, 10 MHz REFERENCE IN An externally applied 10 MHZ reference signal is needed to determine the stability of an individual transmitter PLL synthesizer. This signal can originate from an optional 10 MHZ Reference Drawer, Loran C. GPS receiver, or from another transmitter which contains a 10 MHZ reference oscillator intemally. An intemal 10 MHz reference can drive up to three additional transmitters. Use RGS9/U 75-ohm cable. Reference Signals Two methods are available to apply 10 MHZ reference signals to phase lock a transmitter system. An internal reference card is used to lock up to four transmitters. When more than four transmitters are to be locked to the same reference, an external reference drawer is required. The reference signal level should be +10 dBm +5 dB/-10dB. lntemal Phaselocking of Transmitters: (Option Kit) In a one to four channel co-located transmitter system, one transmitter, usually the lowest channel unit, will contain a precision 10 MHZ reference oscillator module assembly. A three way signal splitter with cables is provided to distribute the reference signal to the remaining three units. Should this Qn'mgy transmitter be taken off line, the reference oscillator assembly must be removed and placed into another transmitter of this type. All transmitters have the provision to accept this reference oscillator assembly. External Phaselocking of Transmitters: (Standard Configuration) When more than four transmitters are co-located, the 10 MHZ reference normally located inside the lowest transmitter channel of the group is removed and an external 10 MHz reference drawer along with a 10 MHZ cable kit are used. This drawer contains a precision 10 MHZ reference oscillator and distribution system. Options are available for redundancy and/or tighter tolerances including an option that will lock to the global positioning satellite system. See attached document for cabling details. NOTE: The 10 MHZ output signals are ofa high level (+17 dBm) and should NOT be directly cabled to any transmitter/modulator, These signals must first be routed through splitters to reduce the signals to acceptable levels. Located in the 10 MHZ cable kit are four 8-Way CATV splitters with cable and appropriate connectors. When connected to any rear panel 10 MHZ jack of the reference drawer, each output of the 8-way splitter may be connected directly to any transmitter 10 MHZ input. The 8-way splitter has -10 dB typical loss.

The surge suppressor value is dependent upon the AC line input voltage. 117 VAC employs a 150 VAC MOV and 230 VAC uses a 275 VAC MOV. Thermal Protection: Thermal protection is accomplished using thermostats that close when the internal temperature exceeds +140 degrees Fahrenheit (+ 60 degrees Celsius). When thermal shut down occurs, a logic control board removes power from the finals until the unit is sufficiently cooled. Interlocks: Interlocks are designed for transistor bias protection for both the FET gate and drain power supply voltages. See the logic control PC assembly description, Document # DOC13- 0016.

These microwave carriers are sent through a common amplifier chain to produce an RF output signal. The transmitter provides a visual output of 20 watts peak sync and a 15 dB ratio or visual to aural power. An RF signal path block diagram follows, document # DOC15-0008, The visual (-8dBm) and aural (-23 dBm) IF carriers are combined internally by the transmitter, (It is also capable of accepting an extemally combined signal, depending upon the needs of the system). The IF input signal is cabled to an IF Processor where preconection is introduced to reduce most linear distortions of the final amplifier. The IF Processor also contains an Automatic Level Control (ALC) circuit for maintaining 100% output power over a iZdB IF input range. Both precorrection and ALC can be turned off by individual switch controls located on the module exterior. The IF Processor output is applied to a driver module where the IF signal is converted with a microwave local oscillator, A bandpass filter follows the mixer to prevent out—of-band products from being amplified and transmitted The signal then goes back to the driver, where it is amplified. The Final Amplifier is a broad band, fixed gain linear amplifier that does not require any timing. A -20 dB directional coupler follows providing forward and reflected power samples to an envelope detector. The envelope detector sends the detected samples to the motherboard for metering. The Notch Filter is the last module the signal passes through before exiting the transmitter, here, the signal is corrected for inter-modulation distortions. 43 dBm peak visual and + 28 dBm aural power are available at the RF output. SBOZOD-l FRONT/REAR DESCRIPTIONS This section explains the SBOZOD-l front and rear panel features. FRONT PANEL Refer to document # DOC23-0018 for numerical references. 1.

Linearity correction circuitry pre-corrects for non—linearities developed in the solid state power amplifiers. The ALC maintains lOO% output power over a 1 2 dB IF input range. An IF signal is applied to J 1 with a precorrected ALC regulated output signal appearing at J 3. The IF input signal is attenuated by a variable pin diode attenuator circuit. Depending upon the amount of forward bias, pin diodes act as variable resistors to the RF signal. Following input attenuation, a two port passive combiner receives the IF signal. The combiner is typically used in systems when an auxiliary IF carrier signal is required. The aimiliary carrier is combined to the IF signal and is amplified in common service. The IF signal is sent through two stages of amplification and is applied to temperature compensated linearity correction circuitry. The signal is applied to three linearity correction circuits each correcting for a separate part of the signal. With switch Si ON, a voltage is applied to each circuit forward biasing schottky diodes, enabling compensation. When the switch is OFF, a voltage is applied reverse biasing the diodes, disabling compensation. Compensation of each circuit is adjustable by potentiometers. These adjustments control the amount of forward bias through the compensating diodes. A band switching circuit is employed when used with an agile transmitter. This circuit selects the biasing network to a pin diode. A control signal is received that enables a relay to select between two levels of compensation. This allows improved compensation at the band extremes. The signal is sent to a final pin diode circuit where a reference signal determines the RF output attenuation/level control. Switch, 52, selects between automatic ALC or a predetermined manual reference level. A manual reference is determined by varying the output from an 8 VDC regulator. The ALC circuitry compares a voltage proportional to average output power with a predefined reference and adjusts , the variable pin diode attenuator to FIGURE 13-0034-1 make the two voltages equal.

Mixer: This section consists of a balanced mixer being driven from the LO injection input via the 180° balun and an IF signal input via a low pass filter. A microwave short is formed by a capacitor. The heterodyned product is coupled out of the diodes by a printed Wilkinson hybrid. This hybrid will substantially reduce the LO injection signal at the output due to its out of phase cancellation, The microwave signal is amplified by a low noise, 50~0hm hybrid amplifier that is biased by a resistort Decoupling of the supply is by a printed decoupling line, two capacitors, and a resistor. Intermediate Amelitrer #1: This amplifier consists of two identical bi-polar transistor amplifiers in cascade. A transistor base bias via two resistors is derived from a common collector resistor. As current attempts to rise above the nominal 14 mA, voltage to the base circuit is reduced, thus causing a stabilizing feedbackt A printed decoupling line, two capacitors and a resistor provides base and collector decoupling. Drive Amglitrer # : This amplifier consists of two similar FET transistor amplifier stages in cascade. From a common module feedthrough filter, +10 VDC is supplied to each transistor’s drain circuit via a printed decoupling 1ine and two capacitors. From a common -12 volt feedthrough, negative gate voltage is divided down and calibrated by two resistor networks. The potentiometers set the drain current of each device.

The operating frequency is determined by programing of the phase locked loop fi'equency synthesizer. Miniature DIP switches SW] and SW2 set N counter and A counter PLL programming inputs. A 10 MHz input reference signal applied to J 1 determines the frequency stability of the PLL. The synthesizer module uses a microwave prescaler, dual modulus prescaler, and internal dividers to reduce the 10 MHz reference and microwave voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) frequencies to 25 kHz for the 09—049 series or 125 KHZ for the 09—073 series. These signals are applied to separate inputs of a phase detector. Input signals of equal phase generate no change in output. Should the VCO deviate in frequency, a phase shifi is detected causing an integrator/low pass filter to generate a DC control voltage proportional to the offset frequency. This control voltage is applied to the microwave VCO to return it to the selected frequency The microwave local oscillator frequency is derived by adding (or subtracting in certain cases) the desired transmitter channel frequency to the incoming IF frequency: EXAMPLE: Visual Output Frequency + Visual IF = Microwave LO Frequency 2501.25 MHZ + 45.75 MHZ = 2547 MHZ Aural Output Frequency + Aural IF : Microwave LO Frequency 2505.75 MHz + 41.25 MHz = 2547 MHz as a“?

Tuner for Tuner for Tuner for Tuner for Notch #1 Notch #3 Notch #2 Notch #4 Section A Section B FIGURE [3-0032-1 For digital use: Section A consists of Notches One and Two which are tuned to minus 1.5 times and minus 1 times the channel bandwidth with respect to the center frequency of the channel (Fc - BW and Fc - 1,5 BW). Notches Three and Four, Section B, are tuned as section A, FC+BWand Fc+ 1.5 BW. For analog use: Section A consists of Notch One and Notch Two which are tuned to the frequency of the video carrier (fv) minus the separation of the frequency between the Visual and aural carriers (fv — Q) and 2(fv » fA). Therefore, Notch One and Notch Two are tuned to fv - (fv - £4) and fv - 2(fv - fA). Notch Three and Notch Four, Section B, are tuned for fv + (fv - fit) and fv + 2 (fv - Q).

ASSEMBLY This plug-in circuit board serves to control the operation of the upconverter/amplifier by providing eight basic functions: A. Auto ON/OFF Transmitter Conuol E. Thermal Interlock B. Video Presence Control Bypass F. External Amplifier Interlock C. Power Supply Comparator Interlock G, Local Standby Control D. FET Bias Interlock H. Remote Standby Control Tum ON of the transmitter/power supply occurs upon logic satisfaction of AND gates U3A and U3B. With all AND gate inputs satisfied with TTL highs, the output of USB is high tuming on Q3. Q3 sinks current from Q4, keeping it in cutoff allowing +5 VDC to the power supply enable and turn on the switching power supply. Failures or missing input signals disable the switching power supply. The Logic Control Board contains three status LED’s. Under normal operating conditions all LED’s illuminate verifying successful tum ON and satisfaction of conditional logic: Red LED Dl verifies that each amplifier module has proper -12 VDC gate bias. Green LED D2 indicates the presence of an applied video input signal. Yellow LED D3 verifies the switching power supply enable. A. Auto ON/OFF Transmitter Control: Transmit ON/OFF operation is initiated by a TTL high (>3.l volts) from a modulator video sense circuit, receiver auto-on circuit, or any other external control voltage applied to board inputs at connector E] (V) originating from rear panel connector J—l, pin 1, When a video presence voltage is available, Darlington transistor Q2 is biased ON illuminating D2, the Video Presence Green LED. The turn ON signal is delayed to U3B pin 4 by the time constant of R22 and C]. This prevents an instantaneous turn ON of the transmitter due to nansients. B. Video Presence Control Bypass: A video presence control bypass switch SW-l is located on the side of the PC board assembly. The normal position for this switch is DOWN. DOWN is the equivalent of OFF. When the switch is down, an external input video presence signal must be supplied to turn the transmitter ON. This signal typically originates from a video presence board contained inside the modulator. When this switch is positioned UP, this places the transmitter into BYPASS mode or in a constant ON condition by providing +5 VDC to the input of AND gate U3B pin 4. This enables the transmitter to continue transmitting even though there is no video signal present. C. Power Supply Comparator Interlock: +ll VDC switching power supply voltage is sampled and monitored by comparator U2B. A series resistive summing circuit consisting of mother PC board fuses F1fF2/F3, resistors R34, R35, R36, and R14 form a voltage divider at a nominal 3.0 VDC input to pin 3 of the comparator.

Q COMWAVE Logic Control 7 33-124 A nut-mm Company A fixed threshold voltage of 35 VDC is applied to the inverting input of U2B pin 2 and creates a “window” for monitoring the power supply. The operating window is 8.95 to 12.4 VDC. A switching supply voltage sample within the window causes the comparator to output a logic low and sink the +5 VDC pull up voltage from the gate of SCR D4. With D4 disabled, a logic high is present on U3A pin 9. Satisfaction of AND gates U3A and B pass a tum ON signal through Q3. With Q3 biased on, Q4 remains in cutoff, The +5 VDC source powers yellow Power Supply enable LED D3 and supplies a turn On signal to the switching power supply. A switching power supply deviation above +124 VDC causes the comparator to output a logic high and enable the SCR gate. The SCR fires and pulls U3A pin 9 low removing the power supply enable signal. Comparator UlOB on the Diagnostic Interface Board determines the low limit parameter. Any open mother board fuse(s) reduces the comparator input voltage and toggles UlOB low resulting in illLunination of the RED front panel PWR SUPPLY diagnostic LED. D. FET Bias Interlock: Negative 12 VDC gate bias from driver and final amp are fed back to edge card connector E-1 pins M. N, P, R, and S. These inputs provide protection in the event of a low or missing amplifier gate voltage. For each circuit, a comparator with fixed voltage reference of +1 .15 VDC on the non—inverting input and gate bias sample on the non-inverting input is used. The -12 VDC gate bias is reduced by an input resistors and is combined with +5 VDC providing +75 VDC to the inverting inputs. Absence of -12 VDC allows the inverting input to be higher than the non-inverting input causing the comparator to toggle low. A low output from any of the five comparators sinks the pull up voltage, This action extinguishes the red gate bias LED DI and applies a logic low to AND gate U3A pin 10, shutting down the transmitter. Illumination of the on board red status LED (D1) indicates that all module gate bias inputs are present. E. Thermal Interlock: A thermal interlock is provided to shut down the transmitter in the event the internal temperature exceeds +160 degrees Fahrenheit (+71 degrees Celsius). Actuation of the thermostat closes internal contacts and supplies a ground to monitoring circuitry. The ground removes the TTL high from U3A pin 12 thereby disabling the +11 VDC switching power supply, The thermostat automatically resets after a cooling period. F. Extemal Amplifier Interlock (Remote B t: A remote/agile standby control is available for extemal ON/OFF control of the transmitter without any delays. This interlock return is available at E1 pin T or rear mounted connector I 1 pin(2). Voltage is held at +5 VDC by R26/D6.
