The following theory of operation describes the operation of the Antenna Relay Module at a functional level. The
information is presented to give the service technician a basic understanding of the functions performed by the
module in order to facilitate maintenance and troubleshooting to the module level. Refer to Figure 7 for a block
and interconnect diagram of the Antenna Relay Module.
The Antenna Relay Module contains a relay with a set of normally open
and normally closed contacts. The relay coil is controlled by the Antenna
Relay signal from the Station Control Module to connect either the Receiv-
er Module or the Power Amplifier Module to a single transmit/receive an-
tenna.
With the relay de-energized, the antenna is connected to the Receiver
Module. To connect the antenna to the Power Amplifier Module, the Sta-
tion Control Module must energize the relay (one side of which is connect-
ed to +14.2 Vdc) by grounding the Antenna Relay signal.
