FRONT PANEL CONTROLS and INDICATORS

F1 - POWER Indicator
Lights when the unit is connected to the
required source of DC power.
F2 - PILOT LOCK Indicator
Lights to indicate that a video signal is applied
to the rear panel VIDEO INPUT connector and
that the MMTS20 is locked to the video
horizontal sync.
F3 - TEST TONE Switch
Switch to the 'ON' position to enable an internal
test tone to aid system audio level setup. See
the 'Installation' section of this manual for setup
information. The normal position of this switch
is the 'OFF' position.
F4 - OVERMODULATION Indicator
Lights to indicate greater than 25 kHz of main
channel deviation. After system audio
modulation levels are properly set, and with left
and right audio source input, adjust the AUDIO
LEVEL control (see item F5) to a point where
the OVERMODULATION indicator just
remains off.
F5 - AUDIO LEVEL Control
The setting of this screwdriver adjustment
determines the audio input signal level. After
system audio modulation levels are properly
set, and with left and right audio signals within
the 250 mVrms to 2.5 V rms range, set this
control to a point where the
OVERMODULATION indicator just remains off
(see item F4).

250 mVrms to 2.5 V, front panel adjustment.
High impedance, intended to be paralleled with paired
A/V modulator unit.
Input Level Range: 0.5 Vp-p to 2 Vp-p.
100 Ohms, intended to drive high impedance audio
input of paired A/V modulator.
10 mV/kHz, ±10%.
1.1 Vp-p for a 100% modulation signal.
Greater than 20 dB.
Less than .25%.
Greater than 65 dB.
Within ±1 dB from 40 Hz to 12.5 kHz.
-50 dBc typical.
System performance is dependant upon paired modulator.
10.396 kHz ±50 Hz.
0.5 Vp-p ±10%; all output levels are calibrated to the
level of this tone and is used to set system audio
levels for proper stereo operation. The paired A/V
modulator audio response must be set for “Flat”
(pre-emphasis defeated).
