Going On-Air
IMPORTANT!
Before going on the air, if you want the safety interlocks to operate properly, the
shorting jumpers installed in “Pre-Commissioning Tasks” on page 1.11.2 , Step 3 should be removed (if
installed).
1. Disconnect the Ac plug from the rear panel.
2. Connect the transmitter's RF output to an antenna system (or verify that the current connection is
intact).
3. Connect the Ac plug to the rear panel to power up the transmitter.
4. Verify audio input levels using the AUI or front panel UI.
5. Use the local AUI or front panel UI to begin transmitter operations. For detailed instructions, refer
to the VX Operating and Maintenance Manual.
 Set for desired power level.
 Turn the RF on via the remote AUI or front panel UI.
WARNING! If a jumper is placed between the INTLK inputs on the rear
panel of the transmitter, safety features controlled by the external
interlocks will be disabled. A fail-safe method of alerting personnel to this
fact should be implemented. Voltages which are dangerous to life will be
present on the RF output stages and the antenna system if the transmitter
is turned on.
