202.5 CONTROL SYSTEMThe control system allows the user to monitor the most important measures of the transmitter, voltageand current of the power supply, temperature of the RF board, forward and reflected power, by usingthe two keys placed on the frontal panel. The turn-on key allows to turn on and off the transmitter.In case one of the monitored measures is in alarm, the transmitter will show this. If the value of themeasure goes back to normal, the control system will turn on the transmitter again.After 5 cycles of turning on and off the transmitter will be kept switched off until the user turns it off.Meaning of the LEDs- LED ON: The LED ON is lit when the turn-on command of the transmitter is inserted.- LED REMOTE: the LED REMOTE is lit when the remote commands have been enabled by the   telemeasuring connector or when the transmitter is controlled trough the RS232 port.- LED ALARM: the LED ALARM is lit when the transmitter has been turned off due to a failure.2.6 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCETo ensure maximum performance and minimum repair trouble, we strongly recommend you to followthe below stated headlines for preventive maintenance:1. check antenna installation and ground connection at regular intervals;2. keep your apparatus clean and dry externally: this will ensure continuous functioning of the frontpanel controls;3. if the apparatus has not been used for a long period of time combined with exposure to extremeenvironmental conditions, open the unit and make a visual inspection.Remove salt, water or ice with a moist cloth before turning the apparatus on. Check that the cooling fansare running freely.4. for general maintenance and top performance, call an authorized service technical to give the appara-tus and the complete antenna/earth connection installation a general check each 12-18 months;5. check at regular intervals that the air intake located on the front panel is free of dust. If there is visibledust, remove it by means of a soft brush.

29- Calibration stepsSTEP 1. Close the input and the output of the module by connecting them to a 50ΩΩΩΩΩ dummy loadand connect the spectrum analyser through a directive sample, in order to look for self-oscillation of themodule, if any (anyway the module has been designed so that it would not self-oscillate even if totally de-coupled, without any input or output load).STEP 2. Check the voltages of the polarisation circuits without assembling the transistors first:connect the 32V power supply to the proper turret by means of a fastening screw, then give power and checkdata:- the stabilised voltage on the zener diodes DZ1 and DZ2 is about 15V compared to the ground;- the stabilised voltage on the zener diodes DZ3 and DZ4 is about 6.8V compared to the ground;- the voltage on the pads to which the gates of the LDMOS transistors will be soldered (R23 and R24resistors side) changes from 0V to a maximum value of about 6V when moving the relevant trimmer (R7-R8).STEP 3. Check the work of the protections.- Set both trimmers so that there is a value of about 4.5V on the pads of the gates;- solder some wire to the pad between the two LEDs, next to the serigraphy of the input hybrid H1;- in order to check the work of the protections aboard, a power of about 4V has to be supplied to the wire,for example by touching with it the reophore of C23 or C24 which is not connected to ground; the two redLEDs will immediately light up and the two RF transistors will be switched off at the same time: the polarisationcurrent (2A) will decrease to 0 and of course the gain curve displayed by the spectrum analyser will decrease;- after this it is important to restore the position of the two trimmers for the minimum voltage! Thendisconnect the 32V power supply.STEP 4. Fastening of the LDMOS transistors: after properly cleaning the plate surface, smear a thinlayer of silicone fat on the lower side of the flange of the MOSFETs, fasten them to the heat sink and solderthe gate first, then the drain. Solder the two 13pF (ATC) chip capacitors and above them the two 1-5pFSolder a wire
30capacitive trimmers, between the two pair of gates, as shown by the mounting plan.STEP 5. Connect serially a c.c. amperometer to the power supply, with scale starting from more than 5A(i.e. 10A).STEP 6. Power the module and check the MOSFET is not absorbing current; this means that the deviceis integral and working correctly.STEP 7. Slowly turn the R7 trimmer until the MOSFET absorbs 1A, always checking that there are noself-oscillation; under this conditions it is possible to check by means of a digital tester that the voltage on thegate is about 5.2-5.4V.STEP 8. Repeat the previous step for the other section of the module, this time turnign R8 and checkingthat the indication of the current on the amperometer increases to 2A total (which includes the current of theother device left on).STEP 9. Check the response curve of the module by means of the network analyser.STEP 10. Check the response curve for low signal with centre 660MHz and span 500MHz, 2dB/div.STEP 11. The curve should be similar to the one enclosed, with a tolerance of ± 0.5dB. To obtain this, acton the four trimmers C41-C41a and C42-C42a with the proper “calibrator”, inorder to flatten the curve asmuch as possible, especially at the edged of the band which represents the minimum values.STEP 12. Finally, check that the current in stand-by does not increase by more than 15÷20%, reaching atworst 2.3÷2.4A when the heat sink is hot and not ventilated.Note: when mounting-removing the PALLET on the heat sink, tightly fasten the screw of each all “N” input and outputconnectors. These are mounted with a single 3mm screw and if it is not properly fastened it may be detached from the PCBby a movement of the connector once it has already been soldered to the path.

36CONTROL BOARD AND DISPLAY SCH0122BR1DESCRIPTIONThe control board performs all the logic and control fucntions of the amplifier. Both the RF and power supplyparameters are continuously monitored in order to guarantee optimal performance in every working environment:- amplifier supply voltages Vdc;- amplifier supply currents Idc;- power module working temperature Temperature;- amplifier forward RF power FWD Power.- amplifier reflected RF power REF Power.The board is based on a flash microcontroller working at a frequency of 20MHz, able to read the parameters,control the amplifier and communicate with any PC connected through RS232/RS485 line. Besides, themicrocontroller is programmable, thus it is possible to change the internal program by connecting the appropriateprogrammer to the J3 connector and this to a computer. The boards contains a 16 characters x 2 lines displayand two keys to change the parameter currently shown. There are also 3 different LEDs. The green LEDindicates when the amplifier module is ON, the red one is lit when an alarm in occur and the yellow oneindicates the remote control of the amplifier.OPERATING CONTROLAs indicated in the previous section, the boards is able to read in real time all the necessary parameters tocontrol the amplifier. When the operator turns the amplifier on the display shows the software release number.After a few seconds the amplifier is switched on and the first parameter shown on the display is the forwardRF power (“FWD Power”).When a value read is out of the allowed boundaries, the microcontroller activates (after five scans to besure) the corresponding alarm indicating this on the first line of the display, and showing on the second line thephysical value. When the alarm is active, the microcontroller switches the amplifier off and restarts the timecounter (3 and 6 seconds). The microcontroller internally stores the number of occurred alarms and if itreaches 5 the whole equipment is definitively switched off. In this case, if the operator needs to restart themachine, it is necessary to switch it off and on again (locally o by remote). When the machine is workingnormally on the first line shows “TV AMPLIFIER UHF” and the second line shows the parameter with theformat “parameter   =   xx.x unit”. The two keys on the frontal panel allow to change the currently shownparameter: the left one goes to the next parameter and the right one goes back (in sequence Vdc, Vac,Temperature, Idc, FWD, REF). If the amplifier is switched off, the “STAND BY” indication is shown on thedisplay and the backlight is turned off.The amplifier can be remotely controlled by serial line (contact ELETTRONIKA for details). It isconfigurable as RS232 or RS485.
37Note: When changing the voltage of the device from 230 to 110VAC, it also takes acting onthe SW3 switch on the display board. Failure to do this may result in damages to the device.

49TECHNICAL DESCRIPTIONThe output UHF filter is made up of a resonators bandpass filter and two notches. It can be regulated on allthe channels of UHF TV band (470 - 8690MHz) and according to all world-wide standards (intercarrier 4.5- 6.5MHz). The bandpass section is composed by the three middle resonators, while the two resonatorsapart are the notches. The filter is symmetrical, therefore the choice of lowest and highest notch is indifferent.The bandwidth and the notch depth are predetermined, so they don’t need any regulation.The input/output coupling are regulated by means of the two screws which are in position opposed toevery connector. The regulation is carried out with a screwdriver, considering that when the screwlines are parallel to the longer side of the filter the coupling is maximum, otherwise if orthogonal it isminimum. The twist friction of the couplings can be set acting on the hexagonal clamps with a no. 12key.TUNING INSTRUCTIONSThe advised sequence is the following:1. Set the instrument state as follows:- C.F. = (V.C. + S.C.) / 2- SPAN = INTERCARRIER * 5 (E.G. 27,5MHz std. B/G)- TRANSMISSION SCALE = 5dB/div.- REFLECTION SCALE = 5dB/div.2. Turn the bandpass section on the required channel, and match input and output until a correct responseis achieved. During this step keep the tunings of the two notches well far away from the response. Fit thecurve at the center of the screen, so as to get the same attenuation at the borders. The input/outputcouplings can influence the external resonators, therefore it will be necessary to repeatedly fix theformer after the latter in small steps.3. Tune the two notches to P.V.-INTERCARRIER and P.A.+INTERCARRIER frequencies. This willvary the response and matchning.4. Adjust the bandpass external tunings. The lower notch side tuning shall be a little unscrewed, whereasthe upper notch side tuning will have to screwed.5. Enhance a little the lower notch side coupling (the coupling screw toward the filter lenghth). Improvethe calibration alternatively acting on two sides according to this sequence: regulate the couplings, re-tune
