6.1 Tuning the High-Power (Cavity) Amplifier

WARNING:

This procedure exposes the operator to high voltages. Take all 
appropriate safety precautions! Exercise extreme care!

2.

Turn on the low voltage power supply to energize the tube filament. 

CAUTION:

Do not apply rf input or high voltage supply until at least 3 minutes 
after turning on the low voltage power supply.

3.

After 3 minutes

, energize the high voltage supply.

4.

Enter 

tn='C13'

 

dn='H1'

 

dm='n'

 

su

 to switch to CW unblanking.

5.

Apply 37 dBm (5 W) of rf drive CW by setting 

dpwr

 to an appropriate value and 

entering 

dm='y'

 

su

.

You can check the upper limits of 

dpwr

 by entering 

dpwr=63

 and pressing Return. 

Check in 

dg

 for the value of 

dpwr

. If 

dpwr=49

 appears, the upper limit on the 

dpwr

 parameter can be changed using 

config

 (refer to the VNMR and Solaris 

Software Installation Manual). 

Adjust the input tuning and matching (slide coupling with hose clamp, see 

Figure 

19

) for minimum reflected power on the thru-line wattmeter. This is an repetitive 

procedure, much like probe tuning.

6.

Adjust the TUNE and LOAD tuning controls repetitively for maximum output 
power. Check that the grid current is well within the limits of ±160 mA.

CAUTION:

To avoid damaging the internal sense antenna, do not exceed the 3-
o’clock position shown in 

Figure 19

 in a counter-clockwise direction. 

The antenna is damaged when it contacts the moving load wall of the 
cavity. Also, do not over-loosen the locking ring because the antenna 
will become loose, move freely, and be damaged.

7.

Rotate the output coupling lever to achieve maximum power output and then tighten 
the locking disk to hold this position.

8.

Again adjust the TUNE and LOAD tuning controls repetitively for maximum output 
power. Check that the grid current is well within the limits of ±160 mA.

9.

Enter 

dm='n'

 

su

.

Fine Tuning the Cavity Amplifier (Pulsed Mode)

1.

Apply 46 dBm of power in 1 ms pulses with 10% duty cycle to the amplifier by 
setting the following parameters: 

seqfil='s2pul' pw=1e3 tn='H1' 

sw=1e5 at=.01 d1=0 nt=1e6

If the amplifier trips off with an OVERDR indication, lower the input power until the 
protection circuit does not activate.

2.

Monitor the grid current at the test point on the status panel with an oscilloscope. The 
scope shows 1 mV for each mA grid current. If necessary, raise the current set point 
of the protection circuit (R83 on the cavity control board 990556), as described in 

“Adjusting the Overdrive Interlock” on page 46

, to allow for 46-dBm pulses.

3.

Attempt to maximize the output power while minimizing the grid current. Rotate the 
output coupling to maximize the output—typically the 6 o'clock position. Adjust 
both TUNE and LOAD to maximize the output. The gain should be 14 dB at 46 dBm 
input.
