NORMARC 7033 TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OF NORMARC 2-FREQUENCY TRANSMITTER Functional Description The transmitter section generates the ILS signal with the required RF power levels and modu- lations levels. The section comprises two identical transmitters, TX 1 and TX 2, where one is connected to the antenna, while the other is connected to dummy loads, acting as a back-up.
TRANSMITTER DESCRIP- NORMARC 7033 INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM LF1223A Low Frequency Generator General Description: LF1223A provides the audio signals to be modulated onto the carrier signal in the transmitter (AC 1226A). The levels of the 90Hz, 150Hz, RF level and ident signals and the morse code of the ident signal are programmable from the RMS.
NORMARC 7033 TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM COUNT = FRQ / 7.5011KHZ In order to set the frequency on the OS1221, the count must be rounded off to the nearest integer value and converted to a binary number. Insert shunts for binary zeros on the pin arrays P2 or P102 (COU/CLR) starting with the most significant bit on P2/102,A0 and the least significant bit on P2/102,N9.

TRANSMITTER DESCRIP- NORMARC 7033 INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM General Description: The function of FD1236A is to provide feedback signals for amplitude and phase correction of the 90 and 150 Hz modulated RF signals. Two dual directional couplers sample the main RF signal from the 90 Hz and the 150 Hz modulated power amplifiers, respectively.
NORMARC 7033 TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM the modulation. When this output is fed back to the power amplifier via the Amplitude Control board, RF power and modulation depth will be held constant, and distortion will be practically eliminated. This detected output voltage is also used for measurement purposes.
