    2.1 Front panel layout: Power key ① When XPA125B is turned on, press this button and hold for 2 seconds, XPA125B will shut down. When XPA125B is turned off, press this button and hold for 2 seconds, XPA125B will turn on.
  • Page 5 2.2 Rear panel layout: Power supply socket: ⑥ DC IN The XPA125B requires a 12 - 15 V DC supply ○ 7 ANT Connector: The ANT socket is connected to the antenna, the connector model is SL16-K.
  • Page 6 The TRX interface is connected to the transceiver output, the connector model is SL16-K. ○ 12 CIV interface: This interface is for XPA125B firmware updates and connection to a PC. 2.3 Display interface layout: ⑴ Input SWR value: Displays the SWR value of the XPA125B input. ⑵ Operating voltage: Displays the value of DC voltage supply to the XPA125B.
  • Page 7 Automatic antenna tuner unit (ATU) status: (10) Displays the status of the automatic antenna tuner. OFF: Indicates that the XPA125B is not connected to the automatic antenna tuner unit. (BYPS) ON: Indicates that the XPA125B is connected to the automatic antenna tuner unit.
  • Page 8 3.1 Wiring connection method 3.1.1 Method for connecting XPA125B with X108G The XPA125B can be directly connected to an X108G, which can then control the band switching and ALC functions of the amplifier. The ACC data cable supplied with the XPA125B is connected between the ACC ports of the two units.
  • Page 9 XIEGU COMMUNICATIONS 3.1.3 Connection method between XPA125B and other QRP radio If you want to start the XPA125B power amplifier and put it into the transmit mode, you need to set the PTT port to a low level [level≤0.1V]. If the PTT output signal of the transceiver is at high level, the high level needs to be converted into a low level, and then input to the XPA125B [ACC-PTT] port.
  • Page 10 Warning: 1. Do not allow the maximum output power of the amplifier to exceed 100 W. 2. Using the XPA125B at high power levels for extended periods can lead to overheating and potential damage to the PA stage. 3.2.2 Band switching You can switch between the two modes of [AUTO-MANUAL] via this key.
  • Page 11 3.2.5 Flexible configuration of PA unit and ATU unit The ATU unit and PA unit of XPA125B can be used independently of each other. You can therefore use the XPA125B as either an automatic antenna tuner or a separate power amplifier.
  • Page 12 XIEGU COMMUNICATIONS Warning When the XPA125B current d r a w is too high (more than 25A), o r a short circuit occurs, the fuse on the rear panel may blow. The unit will then no longer turn on. Please check the status of the fuse if this occurs.
