    PJ1002C-LCD 5. Quick guide for installation and use This section provides a step-by-step description of equipment installation and configuration procedure. Follow these procedures closely upon first power-on and each time any change is made to general configuration, such as when a new transmission station is added or the equipment is replaced.
  • Page 16 PJ1002C-LCD √ For operating tests only: dummy load with 50 Ohm impedance and adequate capacity (1000W for P�1���2C��CD as a minimum). √ Connection cable kit including: • Mains power cable. • Coaxial cable with BNC connectors for interlock signal connection between exciter and amplifier.
  • Page 17: First Power-On And Setup

    PJ1002C-LCD Ensure that the POWER switch on the front panel is set to “OFF”. Connect the mains power cable to the MAINS terminal board on the rear panel. Note : The mains must be equipped with adequate ground connection properly connected to the machine. This is a pre-requisite for ensuring operator safety and correct operation.

    PJ1002C-LCD 7. Working Principles 7.1 Panel board The panel board contains the microcontroller (PIC18F452) that implements the equipment control software, the display and the other components needed to interface with the user. 7.2 Telemetry board This board is designed to inform the user of the equipment operation state. All input and output signals are available on the DB25 connector.
