FM Polarity

The

FM Polarity

page (see

Figure 2.92

) allows users to invert the polarity of the frequency

modulation. You can set FM polarity using the remote AUI (see

Setting FM Polarity - Using the AUI

)

or the local front panel UI (see

Setting FM Polarity - Using the front panel UI - see page 2-111

Setting FM Polarity - Using the AUI

To view the AUI’s

FM Polarity

screen (see

Figure 2.92

), select

Exciter FM Polarity

from the

System

Settings

options.

Figure 2.92: System Settings - FM Polarity

Select either

Normal

(default; positive going modulation signal yields negative deviation) or

Inverted

(positive going modulation signal yields positive deviation) and confirm your setting when prompted.

Note:

Adjusting FM polarity is used to synchronize transmitters for a single-frequency network. It
determines whether positive audio input results in positive or negative modulation.
