CHAPTER 1: DESCRIPTION OF INTERFACES DESCRIPTION OF INTERFACES Description of Interfaces QPAIR Redundant Amplifi er System Front View QPAIR Redundant Amplifi er System Rear View The QPAIR system (the system) has fi ve sections: two modular amplifi er sections, the RF switch section and two replaceable power supplies. - Page 6 CHAPTER 1: DESCRIPTION OF INTERFACES amplifier has its input at the right lower side of its amplifier board (see Figure 2). The signal flows up to the adjacent input pad, then left to the adjacent input equalizer, then back down to the hybrid module. From the output (left) side of the hybrid module, the signal flows up to the output pad socket, left to the adjacent output equalizer, through the output test point coupler and up to the output located at the upper left portion of the board.

50 dBmV per channel. However, if only part of the TV channel spectrum is used, the maximum signal level per channel may be higher than 50 dBmV and the minimum signal level should be higher than 20 dBmV. If needed, contact ATX Networks for assistance in calculating the correct levels. - Page 10 CHAPTER 2: DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION This page left intentionally blank.

CHAPTER 3: SET-UP PROCEDURE SET-UP PROCEDURE Set-up Procedure Remove the front cover. See Appendix 1 for the proper method to remove the front cover. Connect main input cable to the RF INPUT on the left rear part of the chassis. Connect a cable from the TO AMP 1 port to RF IN of AMP 1 on the rear of the chassis. - Page 12 CHAPTER 3: SET-UP PROCEDURE APPENDIX APPENDIX 1: Method of Removing the Front Cover The front cover is held in place by captive thumbscrews. A partially threaded hollow tube guides the screws on the back of the cover. When removing, the screws need to be turned counterclockwise until they feel loose from the fastener located in the bottom of the amplifier/switch sections.
- Page 13 CHAPTER 3: SET-UP PROCEDURE 2 (secondary amplifier) on the back of the chassis and complete the troubleshooting methods as described above for AMP 1. APPENDIX 4: Removal/Replacement of Power Supply (See next page for Figures 3 & 4) If you need to remove and replace either of the power supplies, you will need to remove 5 screws and unplug 2 wires connecting the power supply to the chassis.
