2.3. Local control panel
The Local Control Panel (PCL) consists of two units:
♦ an LCD touch screen,
♦ a display circuit.
It is the principal user interface for the transmitter. It gives the
operator the facilities to display the various status conditions of the
transmitter and its main sub-units.
2.3.1. Indicator lamps and message displays
There are no status indicator lamps to indicate the status conditions of the display card. The indicator
lamps on the front of the PCL indicate the overall status of the transmitter.
2.3.2. Adjustment controls
R435
TEST
R475
The sensitivity controls on the front of the PCL are used to set the parameters which are displayed by
the bar graph on the PCL and in the "RF REFLECTED LEVEL" and "RF LEVEL" windows; these
adjustments set the input signals and are as follows :
♦ R435 “POWER INDICATION” : sensitivity control for output power indication,
♦ R475 “ANTENNA VSWR” : sensitivity control for antenna SWR indication.
The output power level is displayed on the bargraph.
Return SWR values are displayed on the "RF REFLECTED LEVEL" window.
2.3.3. Test points
Pressing on the "TEST" button on the front panel of the PCL with a pointed object will check that the
indicator lamps and bargraph LED’s are working properly.

2.5.1. Indicator lamps and message displays
♦ A LED indicator on the front panel of the amplifier card indicates the status
of the transmitter as follows :
• LED extinguished : voltage supply has failed or is ≤ 24V,
• green LED : amplifier voltage supply is present and it is working
satisfactorily,
• red LED :
- transistor failure as follows :
I < 2.4 A for a group of 4 power transistors with polarisation (P input >
-4dBm)
- overdrive (over current or power protection system activated and fault
stored : 45 A for 4 double transistors),
- P input > -4 to -3dBm and P output <250W
- SWR protection system activated and fault stored (≥ 2 ),
- thermal protection system activated and fault stored (air input
temperature ≥ 60°C),
• orange LED : internal power supply absent in the protection system card.
NOTE: The PCL «AMPLIFIERS» window displays the status
conditions of a power amplifier as follows :
• transistor current values:
- T1 : amplifier modules 1 and 2,
- T2 : amplifier modules 3 and 4,
- T3 : amplifier modules 5 and 6,
- T4 : amplifier modules 7 and 8,
- T5 : transistors in class AB drive amplifier,
- T6 : transistors in class A preamplifier,
• ON,
• general fault,
• SWR fault,
• overdrive fault,
• internal temperature fault,
• presence/absence.

fuse isolator for protection of the power supply,
accessible to the operator on the front panel.
2.6.2. Indicator lamps and message
displays

DC voltage and that the power supply is in
operation,
Green Led

♦ when extinguished it indicates that there is no output DC voltage and that the power supply is shut
down or faulty.
Note : The «POWER SUPPLY» window which can be displayed on the PCL displays the status
conditions for the power supplies in a bay as follows :
♦ POWERED OFF : power supply shut down but fault-free,
♦ POWERED ON : power supply in operation and fault-free,
♦ FAULT : mains input failure; this indication is independent of the power
supply operational status (on or off),
♦ MISSING : power supply absent,
♦ BREAKER OFF : fused isolator open circuited,
♦ MAINS FAULT : one of the mains fuses F2 to F4 has failed,
♦ UNKNOW : internal power supply fault in the multiplex card.

2.7. 860 Cabinet Mains distribution
The Mains Distribution Panel provide selective protection for the installation so that only the protective
device immediately ahead of the fault will be activated :
• Circuit breaker Q6 : protects the mains feeds of the very low voltage power supply for the
Control Processor Unit via the management rack,
• Circuit breaker Q7 : not used,
• Circuit breaker Q8 : protects the mains feeds of external exhaust fan EV3.
• Circuit breaker Q5 : protects the mains feeds of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) - option,
This configuration, with an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is an option. Without this
element, Q5 is not used and the mains come from “emergency mains input” (see “LV
distribution” drawing for TB1 terminal block configuration )
• Circuit breaker Q2 : protects the mains feeds of Sirius 1,
• Circuit breaker Q3 : protects the mains feeds of Sirius 2,
• Circuit breaker Q4 : protects the mains feeds of the very low voltage power supply for the
screen of the control panel via the management rack
2.7.1. Indicator lamps and message displays
♦ An orange indicator lamp on the mains monitoring relay K1 gives further information on the
incoming main supply as follows:
• Lit up : OK,
• Extinguished: absence or inversion of phases.
♦ E1 includes 4 surge arrestors “over voltage protection” ( 3 between Phases and Ground , the 4 th.
one between Neutral and Ground .When one surge arrestor is damaged, the light on the
corresponding arrestor is on : the plug-in module has to be replaced .
2.7.2. Test points and adjustment controls
The front panel of the Mains Distribution Panel does not have any test points or adjustment controls,
which can be used by the operator.
