Modulation Balance; Tone Deviation - RF Technology Eclipse Series Operation And Maintenance Manual

6 FIELD ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE
3. Key the PTT line.
4. Measure the carrier frequency at the output connector, and adjust XO1 until the correct
carrier frequency is measured, ±50Hz.
6.4

Modulation Balance

1. Set RV3 fully counter clockwise (CCW) (sub-tone off).
2. Set RV1 fully clockwise (CW) (maximum deviation)
3. Set RV2 mid-position
4. Set JP7 for flat response
5. Set JP4 for Hi-Z input
6. Key the transmitter on
7. Set the audio input to 150Hz, 0dBm.(387mV)
8. Measure deviation and adjust RV4 (line Level) for a deviation of 5kHz (2.5kHz for
narrow band transmitters).
9. Set the audio input to 1.5kHz, 0dBm.
10. Adjust RV2 (Mod. Bal.) for a deviation of 5kHz (2.5kHz for narrow band transmitters).
11. Repeat steps 6-9 until balance is achieved.
12. Key the transmitter off.
13. Return JP7 to its correct setting.
14. Carry out the Deviation (section 6.6) and Tone Deviation (section 6.5) alignment
procedures.
6.5

Tone Deviation

1. Remove the audio input.
2. Key the transmitter on
3. Adjust RV3 for the desired deviation in the range 0-1kHz.
(CTCSS) coding is not to be used, adjust RV3 fully CCW.
