Quick Reference

The following instruction permits you to manage this transmitter quickly.

1. Two modes of operation are possible:
   • Single visualization mode
   • Programming mode
2. You can move between various slides by using the four “function keys” (audio, frequency, power, check) and the up & down keys of the “navigation ring”.
3. Pushing the central button of the “navigation ring” for more than 4 sec., you can enter to the programmable functions menus.
4. You can program all audio functions and audio parameters, frequency, power etc. When a value as been modified press the central button to confirm.
5. Una volta programmati, i dati verranno memorizzati premendo a lungo il tasto centrale. Se nel frattempo non viene effettuata nessuna regolazione per i successivi due minuti (tempo di abbandono) il trasmettitore chiude automaticamente la modalità di programmazione e tutti i nuovi dati, compresi quelli modificati, non verranno memorizzati.

Once programmed, the data will come memorized pushing the central key for long time. If in the meantime does not come made any regulation for two minutes (abandonment time) the transmitter closes automatically the programming mode and all the new data, comprised those modified, will not come memorized.

Use

• This FM transmitter has been projected to be operated in a manner as simple and consistent as possible.
• Many options/selections are accessed by an easy direct action dedicated keys and thematic subsequent menus.
• A full description of the menus and how to move around them is described in the later sections.

First Use

Demounting instructions
WARNING : before the instalaltion follow this instructions:

• REMOVE THE TWO SCREWS BLOCKING THE COVER
• SLIDE OUT THE COVER
• REMOVE THE FOAM CUBE HOLDING THE VCO
• CLOSE THE COVER WITH THE TWO SCREWS
• USE THE TRANSMITTER IN HORIZONTAL POSITION

REMEMBER: Insert supplied PLUG into DB 9 CONNECTOR located on rear panel to allow the power distribution(interlock)

Power supply requirements and setting

• Insert the mains plug in the VDE place in the rear panel.

• The power supply can work at any voltage between 95 and 130 Vac or between 195 and 265 Vac. A label on the rear, glued close to the ON/OFF switch, indicates the preset voltage range. If you want to change this voltage, or for fuse replacement, follow next instructions:

• SWITCH-OFF AND DISCONNECT from mains the equipment

• Open the transmitter (see standard “demounting” instructions)

• Unscrew the cover of the power supply (please control if the plug of input power cord is out of its receptacle!!), see photo:

• Slide out the internal black plastic cover of the mains socket and change the two fuses.

• Replace the fuses by using two 1.25 A fuses for 220/230 V range and 2.5 A for 110/117 V. Insert the plastic cover.

• Move the jumper in the position “A” for 110V and B for 220V:

• Place the supply cover in the original position and fix the screws.

• Close the transmitter with the top cover.

• PAY ATTENTION: the transmitter cannot work without the cover. The air-cooling system is designed to work in a closed box.

• Serious problems can result if the transmitter is operated without cover.

• Reconnect the mains.

Switch On

• Connect the transmitter to a 30 W dummy load and start it by the switch (03 pag.22) placed on the rear panel.
• The first image that you see in the front display is similar to:

The PLL (phase locked loop) enters in function and are necessary approximately 10-40 sec. (depends on the frequencies) because the oscillator locks on the established frequency. The slowness of the operation is due to a slow answer of the PLL filter that is designated in order to increase the stereo separation to the lower audio frequencies.

Keyboards and indicators description and use

• Are presents nine key on the front panel that control the transmitter.
• The five buttons placed in the left side of the front panel (identified in page 21 from numbers 06 to 10) are necessary to “navigate”, in usual mode, through various slides and functions.
• The central button (10 pag.21) is a standard “ENTER” key. By pushing this key for a long time you have access to program functions and you can change various parameters. An equivalent long action closes the access to program and the transmitter returns to visual mode operations.
• The other four buttons are (listed in sequence):
• AUDIO (audio function) (11pag.21)
• FREQ (frequencies programming) (12 pag.21)
• RF PWR (power programming) (13 pag.21)
• CHK (information and control slides) (14 pag.21)
• When the red LED (05 pag.21) is lighting, the program mode is active and the operator must be very alert.
• The four green LEDs (01 pag.21), (02 pag.21), (03 pag.21), (04 pag.21) indicate selection of the correspondent key.
• The lighting of the five red LEDs (16 pag.21), (17 pag.21), (18 pag.21), (19 pag.21), (20 pag.21) indicates:
• Transmitter unlocked (PLL)
• Internal limiter disabled
• Preemphasis disabled
• RF OUT disabled
• An external alarm is active

The four yellow LEDs (21 pag.21), (22 pag.21), (23 pag.21), (24 pag.21) indicate the active memory M1 to M4 (not implemented). The green LED (27 pag.21) is the standard “power” indicator. The DB9 connector (25 pag.21) permits the RS232 connection to the PC. The last connector (26 pag.21) is a BNC female type for monitoring and measurement purposes.

Visualization mode
It’s possible to check all parameters and stored data, without modifications, during the normal functioning of the equipment. The available menus regard audio setting, frequency setting, internal supply voltages control, general information about firmware version, Internet manufacturer’s web, serial number etc.

Audio menu
The audio menu, through the selction of the UP (08 pag.21) and DOWN (09 pag.21) buttons, shown the follow parameters:

1. L & R bars show the peak modulation. The filled square blocks indicate 10%/ each of modulation, unfilled block show 100% modulation.
2. Peak deviation indicator. Unfilled block= 75 kHz
3. SCA/RDS peak deviation indicator. Unfilled block= 7.5 kHz
4. 19kHz % control bar. (internally adjustable)
5. AUX peak deviation indicator. Unfilled block= 7.5 kHz
6. All set audio parameters synthesis slide :

• HI-Z: Impedenza degli ingressi bilanciati. Scelta tra 10 Kohm (HI-Z) o 600 Ohm (LO-Z).
• 50uS : Preemphasis value. You can choose between “FLAT” (no preemphasis) and 50/75 uS. The value, that is depending on specific local rules, can be modified by moving a jumper located on the mother board.
• Limiter OFF: status of internal limiter. This limiter, when active, performs a strong cutting of all peaks that exceed the authorized 75kHz deviation
• -0.50dBm. Audio sensitivity. You can set this value from -3.75 and 12 dBm in 0.25 dB/step. Remember that 0 dBm = 1mW on 600 Ohm or 774 mVeff. or 2.19 Vpp.
• MO = Mono. The internal coder stereo is disable. To able select ST = Stereo.
• +L, +R is the channels status and fase. The other options are -L, +R; -L, -R; +L (R=off); -L (R=off); +R (L=off); -R (L=off).

Frequency menu
When you push the audio button a slide similar to the following will appear:

R.F. power menu
The following image is an example of the slide obtained pressing the RF PWR button (13 pag.21) :

• Fwd: forward power measure
• Ref: reflected power measure
• RF: distributed power status (ON or OFF)

Information and control menu
This slide shows for control purposes:

• V + : Positive internal power supply +7.5V (± 0.15V)
• V – : Negative internal power supply -7.5V (± 0.15V)
• VRF: power supply voltage of the final stage of power . This voltage can varies between 5V and 28V depending by the RF output power.
• Vtu: VCO voltage expressed in percentage.

These informations are interesting for the technicians in case of a failure taken place.

One more screen is present in this menù, that shows the software version and the serial number of the machine.

Programming mode
In order to vary the different parameters of the transmitter is necessary to enter the programming mode. In order to begin, select the parameter to change and to press the corresponding key, press for some seconds key “ENTER” (10 pag.21) (the central key of the navigation keys). The red LED (05 pag.21) will illuminate itself. This indicates that the access to the modification of the parameters of the apparatus has been made.

Audio setting menu

• Let’s start from the audio key: There are five pages available containing data to insert:

• Sensitivity: is the input level sensitivity (it refers to the L and R balanced input placed on the rear panel). The value can be set from -3.75 and 12 dBm with 0.25dB step, as described in the following picture:

• It is needed to move the cursor under the character that you want to modify, increasing or decreasing the value with the UP and DOWN keys

• The second page allows you to program the input impedance value. The two permitted values are 600 Ohm or 10 kOhm:

• The third page allows you to set the limiter status and the preemphasis value:

• The value of 50uS o 75uS depends on the different rules and can be set inside equipment by shifting a jumper bridge.

• The processor recognises the internal set value showing it on the display.

• The fourth slide sets the input status as Left: +, -, On, Off; and Right : +, -, On, Off:

• The fifth and last page sets the transmission mode between mono and stereo:

Therefore the programming of the AUDIO parameters finishes. As last step will be necessary confirm with “ENTER” key and will appear to confirm the modifications the slide of LOADING.

Frequency setting menu

• It is possible to program the frequency very easily by observing the following picture:

• The cursor must be moved under the character with LEFT and RIGHT keys and then the value can be modified through the UP and DOWN keys.

• The range limits are: 87.50 MHz e 108,00 MHz. The default step is 10kHz but it is possible, on request, to choose different step values (i.e. 25 or 50 kHz).

• At the end press ENTER to confirm. The modification can, in any case, be abandoned selecting NO at the moment of the demand for confirmation.

• RF power setting menu.

• Through the UP and DOWN keys is possible choose the wished power value observing at the same time the effect.

General advises

Ordinary precautions
To maintain the transmitter in a good state in long operating times, we suggest to read the following instructions.

• Make sure that the rear part is ventilated adequately. If the internal temperature of the RACK, where the transmitter is contained, is too much high (we recommend that the temperature does not exceed the 40°C) make sure that comes guaranteed the adequate ventilation.
• Not operate without the cover of the container. Moreover make sure that the cover is placed and pushed until the end of the rabbet.
• Avoid that the voltage variations exceed the limits. The worse conditions take place with lower power RF (p.e. 5W) and with higher mains voltage (p.e. 250V) or viceversa.
• Not exceed the maximum power of 30W. The transmitter can increase of 10% this power. Not allow that these limits are exceeds.
• Improved versions of the software will be prepared. Ask to your retailer approximately the upgraded versions of our software or visit our web address.
