EXC RF OUT
Internal Exciter RF output connector. This BNC connector outputs the internally generated
exciter power level RF signal. For 1kW systems this should be jumped to PA RF IN using a coaxial
connector. For all other system types this should be connected to the RF SPLT IN on the
combiner module.
RDS
Radio Data System input connector. This BNC connector allows input of an externally generated
RDS standard signal to broadcast time, station identification, and program service information.
This input is enabled and disabled independently
RF OUT
The final power amplifier output. This N-connector output carries the amplified RF output at the
maximum 3kW, (FM-only) forward power level to connection to a 50 Ohm antenna
RF SAMPLE
Power amplifier RF sample connector. This BNC carries a coupled RF signal from the module’s PA.
This is intended to be used in 1kW systems in optional monitoring of RF output.
Nominally generates about 19 dBm at about 1kW PA output power. The output level scales with
total output power of the PA module.
Ground
Ground bolt that should be used to connect chassis ground to equipment rack or station ground.
AC Input & Power Switch
AC power switch. This hand operated switch turns on or off power service to the device.
Complete power-down of the module may take a few seconds.
