produce a low RF alarm, providing that the low RF alarm option is enabled.
•
At this point, be sure that the forward RF alarm threshold level is set to a value
corresponding to the desired output level for the SSPA in question. The factory pre
-set for this value is always 10 dBm below the specified P
1db
compression point of
the SSPA. However, you may wish to set this level closer to the desired output level
in order to catch any minor fluctuations below the set level. If the level is set too
high, the low RF alarm may be displayed when there are no legitimate problems. If
the RF input signal has been lowered, this will also lower the output of the SSPA
and may cause a low RF alarm.
•
If the user is certain that the amplifier is in an alarmed state due to problems other
than the ones stated above, the user should verify that no other fault conditions are
present. If a power supply fault, current fault, or voltage fault is present, this may
also cause the low RF alarm to show. If any of these is the case, the user should
refer to the sections corresponding to that specific fault.
3.1 Modular SSPA Architecture
The Teledyne Paradise Datacom SSPA Chassis consists of a modular design, which
allows for quick and easy maintenance and replacement in the event of a catastrophic
failure of one of the SSPA components.
3.1.1 Removable Fans (intake and exhaust)
The intake and exhaust fan assemblies can be easily replaced with minimal
interruption of service. Replacement fans are available from Teledyne Paradise
Datacom.
The front panel (intake) fan tray is secured by six captive thumb screws. To remove,
loosen the screws and carefully remove the fan tray from the chassis. See
Figure 3-2
.
Unplug the fan power cord from the connector at the top of the plenum, and carefully
separate the connectors to fully remove the fan plate assembly. See
Figure 3-3
.
