INSTALLATION AND USE
STL TRANSMITTERS
FOREWORD TO INSTALLATION
Install the transmitter in a dry, vented, dust-free environment, with a mean
temperature of +10~+35 °C. Do not install on surfaces or racks subjected to vibrations,
external vibrations can impair S/N ratio.
Connect your audio source using suitable cables and connectors.
The STL10 Series audio circuitry is similar to hi-fi equipment and should be installed
and wired with the same attention; avoid earth loops as much as possible. When these
conditions are met, the transmitter will deliver excellent audio characteristics.
The STL10 Series are fully RF shielded and can be installed close to the production
studio, this type of installation allows constant monitoring of audio levels, deviation and
power parameters. The transmitter can also be installed in other locations away from the
studio and connected with several meters of LF co-axial cables with no adverse effect on
modulation quality. Remote installation usually requires STL (Studio to Transmission Link
equipment).
Final modulation performance is based upon the system installation, give careful
consideration to where you will locate the transmitter. Additional advices are given in
the appropriate paragraphs in this manual to assist you to achieve an optimum
environment.
