7.1.3 Receiving
In Operate mode, the tuner power supply is engaged, and the tuner is prepared to receive RF Input Drive and a
PTT signal. The front panel meters are active, band/frequency data is processed, and the tuning solution is
applied.
7.2 Tuning
There are two modes of tuner operation: manual and automatic. In automatic mode, the user initiates a tune
operation to better match the transmitter and the antenna system. If one is found, the match solution (L/C/L
values and frequency) is retained in tuner non‐volatile memory and automatically used when the frequency of
the transmit slice is within the Match Frequency Range (with the same antenna selected).
7.3 What is a successful match?
The Tuner Genius XL tries different combinations of capacitance and inductance values during automatic tuning
until it finds a combination that yields an SWR less than the set maximum for the frequency. The minimum
value can be set in two ways:
Press the center knob on the front panel, then adjust the value up and down. Finally, press the knob
again to save the result.
Adjust the minimal value in the Band Configurator screen. See section 8.3.5, Other Tab for details.
