TX System Overview
Final assembly and test of each transmitter is performed at the Anywave factory.
The Exciter is setup on the desired channel frequency and the TX is tested with the
complete RF system (if purchased) at full power into a load. All TX operating
parameters are optimized and the Transmitter Forward and Reflected power meters are
properly calibrated. Linear and Nonlinear precorrection is performed and automatically
stored in non-volatile memory inside the Exciter. A Factory Test Report is completed
for each system, providing a record of full power operating parameters and performance.
The TX then goes through a final 24-hour burn-in period and check out before being
shut done and packed up for shipment.
In your shipment, you should receive a copy of the following documentation.
- Packing Checklist
- Transmitter Factory Test Report
- 280W TX Quick Start Guide

Checklist when you receive your system to be certain you have received all your system
