1 ON/OFF Switch, AC MAINS FUSE AND AC POWER RECEPTACLE. main ON/OFF switch, the LED
inside switches on/off accordingly. An AC
mains fuse
is provided which disconnects the Falcon 50 from
the wall outlet’s AC power under fault conditions. If this fuse should “blow” for any reason, replace it
only with the same value fuse. If it blows a second time, please contact your Axel Technology dealer
for service.
Two fuses (one for spare) are contained in a small drawer close to the cord receptacle.
For 220/230 V AC the fuse is slo-blo 5x20mm rated at 315 mA T; for 110 V AC it is rated at 630 mA T
This apparatus uses a single pole mains switch and does therefore not separate the
unit completely from the mains power. To completely separate from mains power;
unplug mains power cord.
Never operate the Falcon 50 with ungrounded outlets: plugging the processor into an
ungrounded outlet or defeating the ground pin, can create a potentially hazardous
condition. Axel Technology can not be held responsible for problems caused to Falcon
50 or any associated equipment with improper AC connection.
2 RS232 Serial Port: This port is intended for the processor setting and programming by means of the
supplied Pc control software application (bidirectional connection). Supported Baud Rate: 19200. A
regulat POTS modem may be connected to the same port to, for the remote control of the processor
from a telephone line.
3 USB
port:
Type B connector (1.1 version). It supports full connection to Pcs equipped with USB ports.
4 Sync-out: 19KHz synchronism output at 5Vpp, to lock external equipment (such as RDS coders)
5 MPX
OUT
1: main MPX output. Accordingly to the current configuration, the output BNC connector will
include the composite / MPX program signal with the RDS / SCA subcarrier mixed into and with or
without signals injected from AUX inputs. The output level is set via software.
6
MPX OUT 2: additional MPX output, with independent level control. This output can be reconfigured in
software as a Pilot Reference Output useful for RDS (RBDS) subcarrier generators that require an
external sync reference
.
