This section is applicable to the three phase supplies only, as well as other three phase equipment. For many years HARRIS engineers have recommended that the three phase power distribution system should be either a closed delta or WYE configuration to provide better radio and television transmitter performance by helping prevent line unbalance.
For this reason, along with their inherent susceptibility to transients, Harris does not recommend the use of open delta systems. Figure 2-19 3 Phase Closed Delta vs. Open Delta...
Section 2 Installation & Initial Turn-On Platinum Z16HD+ Many transmitters are located at the end of a long transmission line which is highly susceptible to transient phenomena. Devices such as Metal Oxide Varistors are inexpensive and very effective in reducing over voltage spikes. These units are limited in the amount of energy that can be dissipated, but will handle, if designed properly, very large currents.

Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ outputs from the IPA_AB Backplane board drive the inputs to Z-Planes A and B. The 2 outputs from the IPA_CD Backplane Board drive the inputs to Z-Planes C and D. 4.2.2.2 The Z16HD+ PA can be broken down into several levels. First, there are two Power Blocks, each Power Block contains two Z-Planes, each of which could be considered Power Blocks.
Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ allowing greater redundancy. This also allows the PA Modules to be HOT- PLUGGABLE, meaning that a PA module may be removed while the transmitter is operating. If a module is removed, the short interlock pins disconnect first, causing a 120mS system mute.
Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ BoostPro Circuit Descriptions Refer to Figure 4-2 on page 4-7 for the following descriptions. The BoostPro boost amplifier can be divided into three parts for sake of circuit discussion: Control, amplification, and display.

Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ The IPA modules plug into the IPA Backplane Boards. This board interfaces all inputs and outputs for the IPA module. It is also responsible for: • Main/Alternate IPA switching (active with standard, dual IPA configuration) For IPA Status press [STATUS A,B].
Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ • IPA Forward Power (IPA FWD PWR). A sample of the IPA forward power is taken by the directional coupler (shown right after K3 on the schematic) and detected by CR1. The DC voltage at TP1 will therefore be relative to the IPA output. This is sent to the controller for monitoring and main/alternate IPA switching.
Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ Each Z-Plane assembly contains: • Edge connectors for 8 PA amplifier boards (4 in front and 4 in the rear). These con- nectors are labeled J1-J8. • An 8 way Wilkinson Divider, driven by the IPA, which feeds RF drive to each of the 8 PA amplifiers.

Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ The gate control voltage (Vg) is -18V to turn the amplifier off (or mute), and 0V to turn the amplifier fully on. In the Backup FM (using an analog exciter) mode, the variable APC voltage is applied to the IPA gates for power level control.
Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ Maximum RF output per PA is 350W peak, with typical output of 250Wavg at nameplate TPO. The power module is designed for single amplifier field replacement. In the event an RF power MOSFET fails, field replacement is not practical due to the cost of components, time and test equipment involved in repair and alignment of phase, gain and response.
Section 4 Overall System Theory Platinum Z16HD+ the isolation resistor for the 2-way Wilkinson combiner. Each Isolation Board has a pair of ID jumpers, JP1 and JP2, which have to be set to designate into which Z-Plane that particular Isolation Board is plugged. Proper setting for each Z-Plane is on the schematic and silk-screened on the PC board.

Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.11 General Troubleshooting Tips 6.11.1 Foldback Conditions The Master Controller is responsible for transmitter power foldback conditions, however a foldback condition by itself will not cause a fault to be registered in the Fault Log. Foldback limits in the transmitter are always set lower than the actual fault limit. This allows the transmitter to stay on the air at some maximum power level without shutting off, but since the actual fault level was not reached, no fault will be logged.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ IMPORTANT: It is very important to note that once the HDE-100 Exporter is properly connected and configured, the following HDx-FM settings on the Output Setup page 1/4 must be made for normal HD operation. HD Carriers: ENABLED Exgine Input: EXPORTER Exgine Output: NORMAL 6.11.3 Turning the Transmitter ON with No Power Output...
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ reading. If the thermistor circuit becomes open, the detector input goes high which gives a cold temperature reading. This leaves the device to which the thermistor is connected, unprotected from an over-temperature condition. Once this fault is detected it will stay active in the log until the Fault Log is reset.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ c. If the thermistor is not open, turn the low voltage back on and check to see if there is voltage across the thermistor. No voltage to the thermistor means an open between the controller and the thermistor. Trace the connection back to the con- troller board.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.12.5 RFL_PWR, Reflected Power Fault This fault is activated when the VSWR overload trip point is exceeded. This fault will only show up if there is a large and quick change in the transmitter load impedance or if the VSWR foldback setting is too close to the overload setting.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.12.8 POWER_FAIL, Fault This fault is activated as a result of an AC power failure. This fault is detected by monitoring the +20Vdc supply on the Life Support Board (IC U37). If the +20Vdc supply drops below the power fail threshold (approximately 12V) the POWER_FAIL signal is sent to the Master Controller telling it to save the time and ignore certain types of faults which will obviously be present during a power failure.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ AFTER THE INPUT VOLTAGE HAS BEEN SHUT OFF. ELECTRICAL SHOCK IS POS- SIBLE. 6.12.11 CPLR_NC, Coupler Cable Not Connected This fault is active anytime the sample cable from the Forward power directional coupler to the Life Support Board is disconnected. The fault immediately mutes the transmitter until the cable is re-connected due to the effect this would have on the Automatic Power Control (APC) loop.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.12.17 IPA_LOAD, Fault To check for bad RF Cables, the Master Controller checks Z-Plane currents for proper IPA load balance. If a severe imbalance is found, the transmitter is muted. 6.12.18 PSC#_COMM, Fault This fault means there is a communication failure between the Power Supply Controller and the Master Controller.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ • ISO_AZ, BZ, CZ AND DZ - These 4 are the ISO loads located in the middle of the Isolation Boards. Their component designation is R9 on the Isolation Board sche- matic. • ISO_AB and ISO_CD - These 2 are the ISO (reject) loads on the hybrids which are combining the outputs of the respective Z-Planes.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ the IPAs and the exciter and the PA Controllers will mute the PAs. At this point an ISO_Load fault will be reported in the fault log and the transmitter will mute momentarily. The possible faults are: •...
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ schematics for each of these boards must apply to any position, the labeling is also generic. For instance, the PA Controllers have the ability to control and monitor 8 amplifiers. These lines to and from the amplifiers are labeled PA1-PA8 on the PA Controller schematic.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.14.2 A, B, C or D#_OC, PA Over-Current Fault The PA Current overload threshold for each PA is nominally 14.0 amps, provided there are no failed PAs. If an individual PA exceeds this current, the PA will be muted and the Combiner isolation switch will disconnect the associated isolation resistor from the combiner and apply a ground to the PA output.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.14.5 A, B, C or D#_OT, PA Over-Temperature The temperature of each PA is sensed by thermistor, RT1 (located on each individual amplifier board). If the temperature reaches 100°C, the transmitter will mute and disconnect the problem PA via the isolation switch. If one of the thermistors or its wiring is shorted the temperature indication will be 155°C or higher.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.14.8 PA_ISO_OT This is a general over-temperature fault which will shut the transmitter off if one of the PA Isolation resistors in the combiner physically reaches 150°C (no prediction). This protects against a failure in the combiner system where the Isolation resistor does not get switched out of circuit.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ Controllers will mute all of the PAs. The system can be reset by pressing an ON button. This fault will only show up if the Master Controller is not operational or if the ISO APC Foldback routine initiated by the Master Controller fails to reduce the temperature of the ISO load.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.14.13 PAC#_VOLTS, Power Supply Fault This fault is activated if the supply voltage to the PAs under the control of an individual PA Controller is under 30Vdc or over 65Vdc. All PAs under that controller (and power supply) will be muted and switched out.
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ 6.15 Power Supply Controller Faults The following paragraphs give a detailed description of all faults associated with the PS Controller Boards. A quick reference of these faults is given in Table 6-4 on page 6-50. There are two types of power supply faults: •...
Section 6 Troubleshooting Platinum Z16HD+ normally. Due to the distribution of voltage to the PAs, this will affect all of the PAs associated with one of the PA Controllers. Therefore the effect is the same as the loss of a PA Controller and the transmitter will have a maximum power out- put of about 30% of nominal.
