Section 1 Introduction
ZX Series
•
Micromax FM – FM exciter with analog modulator.
•
Digit CD – Digitally synthesized FM exciter.
•
FlexStar HDX - Tri-mode exciter capable of either traditional FM or digital HD
Radio transmissions.
1.3.2
Amplifier
The amplifier chassis accepts a low level on-channel RF signal from the exciter and
amplifies it to the desired output level for transmission. The transmitter models
addressed in this manual have five standard FM power levels: 2500W, 3750W, 5000W,
7.5kW & 10kW.
This manual chiefly addresses the ZX amplifier chassis and the operation of the
transmitter as a whole. A manual dedicated to the exciter is provided separately.
1.4
Transmitter Nomenclature
The complete ZX transmitter is named according to the particular combination of
exciter and amplifier chassis being employed. The number following the ZX prefix
indicates the full nominal FM power level
,
either in watts for power levels below
5000W or in kilowatts for power levels above 5000W. A suffix of FM, CD, FLX, or
HD+ is assigned according to the exciter type.
For example:
ZX5000 = 5000W amplifier with no exciter
ZX5000MX = 5000W amplifier with MicroMax
(TM)
FM exciter
ZX5000CD = 5000W amplifier with DIGIT CD
(TM)
digital FM exciter
ZX5000FLX = 5000W amplifier with FlexStar
(TM)
HDX-FM digital FM exciter (FM
only, no HD Radio)
ZX5000HDPL (HD plus) = 5000W amplifier with FlexStar
(TM)
HDX-FM digital FM
exciter (both FM and HD Radio capable)
NOTE:
In addition, the FlexStar exciter may have one or two RF outputs, depending on
the model number. The use of dual RF outputs is advantageous in certain appli-
cations.
