2.1 Introduction
This section details the procedures for installation and the steps required for the initial turn ‐ on of the FAX series
transmitters. All steps should be followed in order to ensure the installation and turn on process are completed
properly. Please refer to the exciter manual for more detailed information about the model installed in the
transmitter.
2.2 Unpacking
When the transmitter is delivered to the site, the shipment should be inspected and inventoried before installation
is begun. Each transmitter shipment will be accompanied by a packing check ‐ list identifying which items are packed
in the various crates or boxes. Be sure to locate and save this document when the shipment arrives.
The contents of the shipment should be as indicated on the packing list. Carefully unpack the transmitter and
perform a visual inspection to assure that no apparent damage was incurred during shipment. Retain the shipping
materials until it has been determined that the unit has not been damaged. If the contents are incomplete, or if the
unit is damaged electrically or mechanically, notify the carrier and Harris Broadcast immediately.
2.3 Returns and Exchanges
Damaged or undamaged equipment should not be returned unless written approval and a Return Authorization is
received from Harris Broadcast. Special shipping instructions and coding will be provided to assure proper handling.
Complete details regarding circumstances and reasons for return are to be included in the request for return.
Custom equipment or special ‐ order equipment is not returnable. In those instances where return or exchange of
equipment is at the request of the customer, or convenience of the customer, a restocking fee will be charged. All
returns must be sent freight prepaid and properly packed and insured by the customer. When communicating with
Harris Broadcast, specify the Harris Broadcast order number or invoice number and serial number.
2.4 Transmitter Documentation
Prior to installation, this technical manual, the factory test data, and the accompanying drawing package should be
studied carefully to obtain a thorough understanding of the principles of operation, circuits, and nomenclature used
in the Flexiva FAX series transmitter. This will facilitate proper installation and commissioning. Store the
documentation, including the factory test data, in a secure location for future reference.
Note
The information contained in the drawing package should be considered the most accurate in the case of
a discrepancy. Document any changes and all external connections, sign and date them, and keep this info
with the doc package.
2.4.1 Installation and Outline Drawings
In Section 100 of the accompanying documentation package there are several drawings that will aid in the
installation and initial turn ‐ on of the transmitter. It is always a good practice to locate and review all documentation
prior to continuing.
In the case that both generic and custom drawings are provided, the generic drawings are superseded by site/
model ‐ specific drawings.
