7.6.3.1.1. NONE:
No failure communication failures between ADE and BDE modems.
7.6.3.1.2. Receive IF Path:
The Following possibly points of failures assumes LED illumination on both modems.
1. Modem Configuration
Verify BDE modem and ADE modem are properly configured (jumper block settings).
2. Coax Cable failure
Verify continuity on the below coaxes, repair or replace as required.
a. BDE Modem to connector bracket (Base Rack Panel Assembly)
b. (CFE) BDE to ADE Rx IF (Base Rack Panel to radome Connector bracket)
c. Rx N to SMA Adapter (Located on connector bracket at radome base)
d. SMA to SMA (From connector bracket to bottom the bottom side of the
rotary joint)
e. SMA to SMA (From top side rotary joint to PCU/ADE Modem
3. Rotary Joint (Receive channel)
Verify continuity on the receive channel for its entire 360 degree range of motion.
Replace rotary joint if any sector of it has failed.
