MAINTENANCE
This section explains the setup and use of the receiver.
7.1
Test Conditions
Refer to Figure 3-2, Receiver Rear View, and Figure 7-2, Test Setup. For all RF and audio
tests, when input power is required, supply a 10-30-Vdc power supply capable of supplying
three amperes to rear-mounted TB 1 as follows: 10.6-30V TB 1-2 (on right) to (+), GND
TB1-1 (left) to (-). A standard test signal consists of an RF carrier supplied to RF INPUT
J1 at a level of -47 dBm, modulated by a 1000-Hz tone at +1-3-kHz (+/-1.5 kHz for narrow-
band) deviation. Figure 7-2 illustrates how test equipment is to be attached.
7.2
Power Supply (PS/A board unless noted)
Perform the following procedure to check the power supply operation. Note that the power
supply output is fixed.
Power Supply Check
1.
Check that input power (28 Vdc or within range of specifications) is supplied to rear-
mounted TB1-2 (10.6-30V) and ground TB1-1 (GND).
2.
Turn on front-panel power switch. Front-panel POWER LED (IF board) should light.
3.
Check that input power is present at D4-cathode (near right-rear corner of pcb).
4.
Check voltage at red TP1. Voltage should be 11.5 to 12.5 Vdc.
5.
Check voltage at red TP2. Voltage should be 14.5 to 15.5 Vdc.
7.3
Local Oscillator Setup (synthesizer board, unless noted)
Perform the following procedure whenever it becomes necessary to set the receive
frequency. If an external oscillator is normally used when the receiver is in an equipment
rack, set JR1 to 2-3 and remove (set movable jumper so that it makes no electrical connec-
tion) JR3. An internal reference oscillator must be present before the procedure can be
performed. Restore jumpers to normal operating positions when done. Figure 7-1, Synthe-
sizer Controls and Indicators, shows synthesizer controls and indicators.
Synthesizer Programming Procedure
1.
Determine required receive frequency. If the frequency is listed in Table 7-5, Synthe-
sizer Switch Settings for Common Frequencies, use appropriate switch settings. Oth-
erwise, calculate hexadecimal and binary values of A and N and switch settings by
using BASIC program listed with Figure 7-4, Test Setup, or use formula with calcula-
tor.
2.
Set segments of DIP switches Si and S2, as required by results of step 1. Note that 1
= off = up and 0 = ON = down.
