figure 5.1
Connect a switch, via a cable, to the REMOTE 3 connector on the rear panel so
that the switch is able to short the central conductor to its screen. Leave the switch
in the short-circuit position.
Verify that TEX150 is switch off.
Connect line power to the unit via the VDE socket.
NOTE: This device shall be correctly connected to ground. Correct grounding is
essential both for safety and to reach the rated performances.
5.2 Operations
Switch the power On switc to the ON position and check that the three green
internal voltage led and the red UNLOCK led are all on.
Select the desired operating frequency using the corresponding selector. The red
UNLOCK led should switch off within 30 seconds, indicating that the oscillator has
locked onto the operating frequency. The frequency selector comprises five figures
of which the three to the left of the decimal point represent (from left to right)
hundreds of MHz, tens of MHz and MHz. The two figures to the right of the decimal
point represent (from left to right) hundreds of KHz and tens of KHz.
Eg: 098.45 = ninety eight megahertz and four hundred and fifty Kilohertz.
Eg: 103.94 = one hundred and three Megahertz and nine hundred and forty
Kilohertz.
Furthermore, if a frequency is selected beyond the two limits of the 87.5-108 MHz
band, the amplifier will continue to work even through the displayed frequency no
longer corresponds to the operating frequency of the unit.
NOTE: Transmitting outside the legal band (87.5-108 MHz) is an offence and may
lead to prosecution.
