Introduction
1.3 Quick set-up guide
Using a transmitter stand-alone (without RDS encoder)
This set-up uses the built-in audio limiter and stereo generator. The transmitter as shipped from factory is already
configured for this set-up, so there are no internal changes to be made.
Place a transmitter in a well ventilated space. If it's rack-mounted, leave at least 1U free above and be-
low it for adequate cooling.
Connect the antenna to the RF output N-connector on the back of the transmitter.
Connect the left and right program audio signals to the XLR input connectors on the back of the transmit-
ter.
Plug in the power cord to the transmitter.
Once the transmitter is operating, set the correct carrier frequency from the front panel (this can also be
locked and set internally).
Adjust the desired power output level using front panel. Check reflected power is OK.
Check the gain reduction of the built-in limiter - it should be doing a couple of dB with normal program
level. If necessary adjust the audio input level trimmers on the back of the transmitter.
That finishes the set-up. A much more detailed explanation is available in the appropriate sections of this manual as
well as additional options. You should read through it!
