Changing The Transmit Meter; Meter Peak-Value Hold; Analog Meter Response Speed - Kenwood TS-990S Instruction Manual

Type 2 (Analog 1 Meter)

CHANGING THE TRANSMIT METER

1 Press [METER] (F)
Parameters vary according to the meter type:
For Type 1 (Digital Meter)
SWR > Id > Vd > TEMP > SWR
For Type 1 (Digital Meter) and displayed as the compressed
mode
Po > SWR > Id > ALC > Vd > TEMP
For Type 2 or Type 3 (Analog Meter)
P0 > SWR > Id > COMP > ALC > VD
P0 Indicates the transmit power. (Indicates the peak
transmit power value.)
SWR Indicates the Standing Wave Ratio showing the
antenna impedance matching state.
COMP Displays the amount of compression of the transmit
signal by the speech processor.
ALC Indicates the voltage in the Automatic Level Control
circuit.
Id Indicates the drain current in the final FET circuit.
Vd Indicates the drain voltage in the final FET circuit.
TEMP Indicates the temperature of the internal circuit.
S-meter for the sub band appears on the upper right side of
the main display.

S-meter for the sub band
Note:
◆ If an analog meter is connected to the METER terminal on the rear
panel, the signal level can be observed on both the front panel and
the external meter. {page 16-15}
◆ COMP meter can be selected while the Speech Processor is
active.
METER PEAK-VALUE HOLD
Indicates the held peak-value in the digital meter.
1 Select Group No. 0, "Basic Configurations", from the
Menu screen.
2 Access Menu 11, "Meter Display Peak Hold".
3 Press [SELECT] (F4) to allow editing of the parameter
box.
4 Press [-] (F4) or [+] (F5) to select "Off" or "On".
The default is "On" (use with Meter Peak Hold). Selecting
"Off" disables the Meter Peak Hold. In this case, the peak
values remain displayed for the duration below.
Upper Display: 0.5 seconds
Middle and Lower displays: 0.3 seconds (except SWR meter)
5 Press [ ] (F1).
6 Press [MENU] to exit.

ANALOG METER RESPONSE SPEED

You can configure the response speed of the needle on
the analog meter.
1 Select Group No. 0, "Basic Configurations", from the
Menu screen.
2 Access Menu 09, "Meter Response Speed".
3 Press [SELECT] (F4) to allow editing of the parameter
box.
