R V R TEX700LCD Exciters Transmitters
Product Information
- The RVR TEX transmitters are a series of exciters/transmitters that offer uncompromised transmission quality at an attractive price. They are ideal for use as drivers for mid-power stations or as transmitters in stand-alone applications. The transmitters have adjustable power output from 0 watts to maximum output power.
- Key audio features of the RVR TEX transmitters include low distortion and intermodulation values, as well as a high noise/signal ratio. The transmitters are compact and indeformable thanks to the stainless steel chassis, with a depth of only 525mm and occupying 3 rack units.
- The RVR TEX transmitters have user-friendly features such as a universal multi-voltage power supply (80-260 V), pushbuttons for user/device interaction, and configuration software with a simple, intuitive interface. The transmitters also have advanced module engineering for ease of access and maintenance.
- Reliability and continuity are ensured with the SMD technology, Automatic Power Control (APC), and Foldback protection. The transmitters offer total control through a microprocessor that can be easily programmed from a menu or via RS232, with all key parameters displayed on an LCD.
- The transmitters have built-in interfaces including a high-performance stereo coder, L&R analog audio inputs, Mono inputs, MPX composite signal, and auxiliary inputs for SCA/RDS signals. They also feature a built-in Telemetry System with a GSM modem, battery, and battery charger (optional).
- The RVR TEX transmitters are in full compliance with EC, FCC, and CCIR standards.
Product Usage Instructions:
To use the RVR TEX transmitters, follow these steps:
- Ensure that the transmitter is connected to a power source within the universal voltage range of 80-260 V.
- Connect the desired audio inputs to the corresponding L&R analogue audio inputs or Mono inputs on the transmitter.
- If necessary, connect additional signals such as SCA/RDS signals to the auxiliary inputs.
- Adjust the power output of the transmitter according to your requirements. The power output can be set from 0 Watt to the maximum output power.
- If remote control is desired, ensure that the Telemetry System with the GSM modem, battery, and battery charger (optional) is properly installed.
- For advanced control and configuration, use the microprocessor to program the transmitter. This can be done either from the menu on the transmitter or via RS232.
- Monitor the key parameters displayed on the LCD to ensure optimal transmission performance.
- For maintenance purposes, access the transmitter’s modules easily through the advanced module engineering design.
Refer to the user manual for more detailed instructions and troubleshooting information.
