3.7.3 System with more than 4 carriers and a
radiator under a balcony
Figure 3.18 Radiation path length difference for two
radiators
Figure 3.18 shows a radiation signal delay which needs
to be compensated. For a system with more than four
carriers, add one delay switch position per 8 meters
difference in signal path length to the radiators that are
closest to the overlapping coverage area. In figure 3.18
the signal path length difference is 12 meter. Add one
delay switch position to the switch position(s) for the
radiator(s) under the balcony.
3.7.4 System that mixes TAIDEN radiator with
other brand compatible radiator
The radiators in above-mentioned systems are all
TAIDEN
HCS-5100 Series Radiator. The delay of
electric input to light output of this radiator is 360 ns.
Other brands on the market have a higher electric input
to light output delay - for example 760 ns which
means a 400 ns higher delay compared to
TAIDEN
HCS-5100 (equivalent to the delay caused by about 80
m of cable, i.e.16 steps of delay switch position).
The reason for these delay differences is due to the
use of different AD converters.
If
TAIDEN
HCS-5100 radiators are worked together
with radiators of other brands in a system, the
differences in delay of electric input to light output must
be taken into consideration.
