WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Overall System Theory

SUPPLY_DISABLE at U30-11 to shut off the power supplies and a 
SYSTEM_MUTE via U30-10 which will mute the exciter and IPA.

4.7.6.1.2.1

Remote Transmitter Turn OFF

REM_OFF(BAR) is activated via the remote control interface. When the remote 
control pulls this line low, it will activate optical isolator, U23, bringing U23-6 low. 
This is inverted at U27-6 and applied to U25-10 as an active high signal. The input 
at U25-9 is not used and will always be high. Therefore the AND gate output at 
U25-8 will follow the U25-10 input. The remote off command is then tied in to the 
same off command circuitry discussed earlier.

4.7.6.1.2.2

Failsafe

The Failsafe input can be used for any purpose which requires muting of the 
transmitter output, such as failure of the remote control, or external RF switching 
systems. Customer connection to the Failsafe circuit can be done in one of three 
places:

a.

At the TB1 remote control terminal strip in the rear of the transmitter (see 
Section II, Installation). As shipped from the factory, there is a jumper from 
TB1-8 to TB1-10(ground).

b.

It can also be connected directly to the Life Support Board to J4-7 and J4-8. 
Be very careful when connecting to these terminals. The pressure necessary 
to operate the Wago connector on the rear of the board must be properly sup-
ported to keep from bending and possibly damaging the Life Support Board.

c.

Lastly, it can be connected at J20-8, a 37 pin D connector, located on the Dis-
play/Backplane Board directly behind the controller front panel. This con-
nects to the Life Support Board at J1-A6.

In any of the three cases, Failsafe is an active low signal which must be pulled low 
before the transmitter will output any power. To use the failsafe, the factory jumper 
must be removed.

When the failsafe circuit is satisfied, it will cause U23-8 and U25-4 to go low and 
U25-6 will stay low, having no effect on transmitter operation. If the Failsafe 
connection is opened, U23-8 and U25-4 will go high, but the signal is gated by U25-
5, which is the FAILSAFE_ENABLE signal from the Master Controller This line is 
not used and is always high, allowing a Failsafe open condition to pass the high to 
U29-10 which ties into the SYSTEM_MUTE circuit. In the Life Support Mode the 
signal MASTER_NORMAL(BAR) will be high at U31-2 and will enable U25-5 
and the Failsafe signal.
