Detailed Alignment Procedures
This translator was aligned at the factory
and should not require additional
adjustments to achieve normal operation.
the Power Amplifier Module in the
exciter/amplifier chassis assembly.
These two cables must first be removed
before the PA module will slide out.
This translator takes the On channel RF
input to the Receiver Tray and converts it
to the desired UHF On Channel RF Output
at the systems output power level.
Slide the new module in place and make
certain it connects to the backplane
board. If the new module is a PA
Module replace the two cables on the
rear of the exciter/amplifier chassis
assembly. If the new module does not
slide in easily, verify it is properly
aligned in the nylon tracks both top and
bottom.
If the (Optional) Modulator Kit is
purchased, this translator can also
operate using the baseband audio and
video inputs or, if the (Optional) 4.5-MHz
composite input kit is purchased, either a
single composite video + 4.5-MHz input
or separate baseband video and audio
inputs.
Note: Each Module has an assigned slot
and will not fit properly in the incorrect
slot. Do not try to place a Module in the
wrong slot as this may damage the slot
or the connectors on the backplane
board.
The exciter/amplifier of the Pioneer
Series translator is of a Modular design
and when a Module fails that module
needs to be changed out with a
replacement module. The replacement
module can then be sent back to Axcera
for repair. Contact Axcera Customer
Service Department at 724-873-8100 or
fax to 724-873-8105, before sending in
any module.
Each module has the name of the
module on the front, bottom for
identification and correct placement.
The Modules are placed in the unit from
left to right; (1) Blank panel, (2)
Modulator (for transmitters) or a Blank
panel for a Translator, (3) IF Processor,
(4) Upconverter, (5) Controller/Power
Supply and (6) Power Amplifier.
Module Replacement
Module replacement on the Pioneer
series products is a relatively simple
process. All modules plug directly into
the backplane board except for the
power amplifier module, and in higher
power units, the power supply and
power amplifier modules, that plug into
a blind mating connector. To replace a
module, refer to the following
procedure.
Initial Test Set Up
Check that the RF output at the coupler
is terminated into a dummy load of at
least 100 watts. While performing the
alignment, refer to the Test Data Sheet
for the translator and compare the final
readings from the factory with the
readings on each of the modules or tray.
The readings should be very similar. If a
reading is way off, the problem is likely
to be in that module or tray.
Loosen the two grip lock connectors,
located on the front panel, at the top
and bottom of the module,
counterclockwise until the module
releases. The IF Processor, Upconverter
and Controller/Power Supply can then
be gently pulled from the unit. There
are two cables connected to the rear of

the Controller/Power Supply in the ALC
screen. Move the MAN/AUTO ALC switch
back to Auto, which is the normal
operating position.
The exciter/amplifier chassis assembly
operates using an external IF input from
an external receiver tray. The IF source
connects to J6, the modulated IF Input
jack, on the rear of the chassis assembly,
which is cabled to the IF Processor
Module.
To adjust the AGC Cutback setting, raise
the output power of the translator to
110%. Adjust R2, AGC Cutback, located
on the front panel, CCW until the LED
DS1, AGC Cutback, just starts to flash.
Return the output power of the translator
to 100%.
On the LCD Display, located on the
Controller/Power Supply Module, push
the button to switch the translator to
Operate. The setup of the RF output
includes adjustments to the drive level of
the Power Amplifier, the adjustment of
the linearity and phase predistortion to
compensate for any nonlinear response
of the Power Amplifier on the front panel
of the IF Processor module.
5.2.1 Linearity Correction
Adjustment
As shipped, the exciter was preset to
include amplitude and phase predistortion. The pre-distortion was
adjusted to approximately compensate
the corresponding non-linear distortions
of the Power Amplifier.
Verify that all red LEDs located on the IF
Processor front panel are extinguished.
The following details the meaning of each
LED when illuminated:
•
NOTE: On the IF processor board inside
the module the correction enable/disable
jumper W12 on J30 will be in the Enable
position, on pins 2 & 3.
DS1 (input fault) – Indicates that
either abnormally low or no IF is
present at the input of the module.
•
DS2 (ALC fault) – Indicates that the
ALC circuit is unable to maintain the
signal level requested by the ALC
reference. This is normally due to
excessive attenuation in the linearity
signal path or the IF phase corrector
signal path, or that switch SW1 is in
the Manual ALC Gain position.
•
DS4 (Mute) – Indicates that a Mute
command is present to the system.
Set up a spectrum analyzer with 100 kHz
resolution bandwidth and 100 kHz video
bandwidth to monitor the
intermodulation products of the RF
output signal of the Power Amplifier. A
typical red field spectrum is shown in
Figure 5-1. There are three Linearity

Equalization Adjustment
5.2.3 Calibration of Output Power
and Reflected Power of the
translator
The procedure for performing a
frequency response delay equalization
adjustment for the translator is described
in the following steps:
Note:
Perform
the
following
procedure
only
if
the
power
calibration is suspect.
The center frequency for the first stage is
46.5 MHz. Adjust R103, the top
frequency response equalizer pot, located
on the front panel of the IF Processor
Module, for the best depth of frequency
response correction at 46.5 MHz.
Switch the transmitter to Standby and
preset R205, the aural null pot on the
Amp Control board, fully CCW. Adjust
R204, the null offset pot on the Amp
Control board, for 0% visual output.
Perform the following adjustments with
no aural present by removing the aural
carrier from the test modulator. Connect
a sync and black test signal to the video
input jack of the test modulator. Switch
the transmitter to Operate.
The center frequency for the second
stage is 41.5 MHz. Adjust R106, the
middle frequency response equalizer pot,
located on the front panel of the IF
Processor Module, for the best depth of
frequency response correction at 41.5
MHz.
Next, set up the transmitter for the
appropriate average output power level:
The center frequency for the second
stage is 44 MHz. Adjust R274, the
bottom frequency response equalizer pot,
located on the front panel of the IF
Processor Module, for the best depth of
frequency response correction at 44 MHz.
Sync + black 0 IRE
setup/wattmeter=59.5 watts
•
Sync + black 7.5 IRE
setup/wattmeter=54.5 watts
Note: The transmitter must have 40
IRE units of sync.
After the three delay attenuation
equalizers have been adjusted, fine tune,
as needed, for the best frequency
response across the channel.

panel display in the % Visual Output
position.
The Bandpass Filter is factory tuned to
the proper bandwidth and should not
need tuned. If you think tuning is
needed consult ITS Corp. Field Support
Department before beginning.
With the spectrum analyzer set to zero
span mode, obtain a peak reference on
the screen. Reconnect the aural carrier
from the test modulator. Turn the power
adjust pot on the front panel until the
original peak reference level is attained.
Adjust R203 for a 100% aural power
reading. Switch to the Visual Output
Power position and adjust R205 (aural
null pot) for 100% visual power.
The Traps are labeled with their Center
Frequency relative to the Frequency of
the Carrier. (For Example: The Traps
labeled -4.5 MHz are tuned for a Center
Frequency of 4.5 MHz Lower than the
Frequency of the Visual Carrier.)
The Trap Sections are Reflective Notches,
adjustable across the entire UHF
Frequency Band. The electrical length of
the Outer Sleeve and the Center Rod of
the Notch can be adjusted to Tune the
Notch Frequency. The Depth of the
Notch is set by the gap between the
Center Conductor of the Trap Section and
the Center Conductor of the Main Line.
Tight Coupling makes a Deep Notch,
while Loose Coupling makes a Shallow
Notch.
To calibrate the reflected output power
reading of the translator. Reduce manual
gain pot R3 to a 10% reading on the LCD
front panel display in the % Output
Power position. Place the translator in
Standby. Remove the load from J4 on
the (A4) Direction Coupler Board and
switch the LCD Display screen to the
Reflected Output Power position. Switch
the translator to operate. Adjust the
reflected power calibration adjust pot
R163 on the power amplifier module to a
10% reading. Reconnect the load to J4.
The Trap Sections have been factory
tuned and should not need major
adjustments. The Frequency, relative to
Visual Carrier, that the Trap is tuned to is
marked on the Notch. Fine Tuning of the
Notches Center Frequency can be
accomplished with the Tuning Bolts
located on the side of the Filter Section.
Loosen the nut locking the Bolt in place
and adjust the Bolt to change the
Frequency of the Notch. Monitor the
output of the Transmitter with a
Spectrum Analyzer and Null the
Distortion Product with the Bolt. Red
Field is a good Video Test Signal to use to
see the +8.08 MHz Product. Tighten the
nut when the tuning is completed. Hold
the bolt in place with a screwdriver as
the nut is tightened to prevent it from
slipping.
After this calibration is completed, move
switch SW1 on the upconverter module
to the Automatic AGC position. This is
the normal operating position for the
switch.
The Translator is now aligned, calibrated,
and ready for normal operation.
This completes the detailed alignment
procedures for the Pioneer Series
translator.
If a problem occurred during the
alignment, help can be found by calling
Axcera field support at 724-873-8100.
5.3 Alignment Procedure for the
Bandpass Filter Assembly
For major tuning, such as changing the
Notch Depth or moving the Notch
Frequency more than 1 MHz, the Outer
Conductor and the Center Conductor of
the Trap Section must both be moved.
This requires an RF Sweep Generator to
The Bandpass Filter Assembly is tuned to
reject unwanted distortion products
generated when the signals are diplexed
and also during the amplification process.
Pioneer, UHF Translator, Rev. 0

accomplish. Apply the Sweep signal to
the Input of the Trap Filter and monitor
the Output. Loosen the Clamp holding
the Outer Conductor in place and make
the length longer to Lower the frequency
of the Notch or shorter to Raise the
frequency of the Notch. Loosen the
Center Conductor with an Allen Wrench
and move it Deeper for a Lower
Frequency Notch or out for a Higher
Frequency Notch. These adjustments
must both be made to change the Notch
Frequency. Moving only the Center
Conductor or the Outer Conductor will
effect the Notch Depth in addition to the
Center Frequency. The variable that is
being adjusted with this procedure is the
length of the Center Conductor inside the
Trap Filter. The gap between the Trap
and the Main Line should not be changed.
Moving only the Inner or the Outer
Conductors by itself will effect the Gap
and the Notch depth.
To effect the Notch Depth Only, both
sections will have to be moved. The
Notch Depth is controlled by the Gap
between the Center Conductor and the
Trap Section. This Gap also has an effect
on the Center Frequency. To Deepen the
Notch, Shorten the Outer Conductor and
pull the Center Conductor Out until the
Notch is back in the same place. Move
the Sections in the opposite direction to
make a Shallow Notch.
Pioneer, UHF Translator, Rev. 0
After tuning has been completed, tighten
the Clamp and the Allen Screws which
hold the Conductors. Use the Fine
Tuning Bolts to bring the Frequency In.
The Final Tuning Adjustments should be
completed with the Transmitter driving
the Output Trap Filter for at least one
hour to allow for warm-up drift.
This completes the Alignment Procedure
for the Bandpass Filter Assembly.
