AM5(e) Classic Instruction Manual
1.
OVERVIEW AND UNPACKING
1.1
OVERVIEW
This Instruction Manual describes the operation of the Ameritec Model AM5
and AM5e Classic Voice/Data Transmission Test Sets.
The AM5 Classic and AM5e Classic are microprocessor-based test instruments used to
make Transmission Impairment Measurements ("TIMS") on 2- and 4-wire circuits.
Models are available for IEEE Standards and CCITT Recommendations as follows:
AM5
CLASSIC-120 - - - IEEE Standard 743-1984 (Bell Standard 41009)
AM5
CLASSIC-200 - - - Same as AM5 Classic-120 with extended range to 200 kHz
AM5e CLASSIC-120 - - - CCITT International Recommendations
AM5e CLASSIC-200 - - - Same as AM5e Classic-120 with extended range to 200 kHz
Both the AM5 Classic and AM5e Classic are hereafter referred to as "AM5(e) Classic",
and except where specified "AM5" or "AM5e" all information applies to both types of
Classics.
The AM5(e) Classic also contains a separate full-function test tone generator which
produces operator-selected and automatically-stepped (sweep) tones from 20 Hz to 120
kHz (or 200 kHz) required for tests.
The AM5(e) Classic provides five (5) impedance selections for RX and TX lines,
separate DC hold circuits, and a built-in speaker monitor.
Optional features include a Signaling Adapter with Ring Generator, "Siemens"-type
Line Test Connections, Rechargeable batteries for cordless portable operation, a snap-
on cover, and a rack-mounting kit for permanent installations.
The 200 kHz Model of both the AM5 Classic and AM5e Classic extends the maximum
frequency response measurement and generation from 120 kHz to 200 kHz.

UNPACKING
The AM5(e) Classic was thoroughly tested and carefully packed before shipment, and
was in good condition when given to the carrier for shipment.
Upon receipt, thoroughly inspect the outside of the shipping container for damage. If
damage is noted, immediately contact the carrier. The name of the carrier will be noted
on the packing slip which is attached to the outside of the shipping container.
Open the container carefully and compare the contents with the packing slip. Note any
damage or shortages. Notify the carrier in the event of damage. Notify Ameritec in the
event of shortages.
Save the shipping container for future use in case the AM5(e) Classic must be returned
to the factory.
