  • Page 5: Surface Mount Repair

    Surface mount products require special techniques and equipment. Improper servicing can permanently damage the printed circuit board and/or components; any such RESULTING DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED by the Kantronics warranty. 4.1.2 Precautions For Handling CMOS Devices CMOS parts require special handling, because their circuits are very susceptible to damage from electrostatic or high voltage charges.
  • Page 6: Unit Disassembly

    Do not insert or remove CMOS devices with power applied. Check all power supplies used for testing, to ensure no voltage transients are present. 4.1.2.6 Soldering Use a soldering iron having a grounded tip for soldering CMOS circuitry. 4.1.2.7 Lead-Straightening Tools When straightening CMOS leads, provide ground straps on the straightening tool.

    4.2.5 If your unit has an I/O, A3, CCA This will be the CCA on top. If your unit does not have an I/O CCA the Controller, A2, CCA will be on top. In either case the top CCA is held on by three #4 screws and lock washers.

    • If the Front Panel is not attached to the ANT connector, twist the connector clockwise and loop the coaxial cable so it will lie over the top of the backside of the connector, with the connector facing towards the front. •...

    equipment, and have an output which can drive the FM demodulator and frequency counter at the correct level. Audio oscillator: Must have sine wave and square wave output and adjustable output frequency and amplitude. Voltmeter for dc: 10 M input impedance. Any good DMM will have this. Oscilloscope: 20 MHz bandwidth and X10 probe.

    Press the “1” key for the RX FREQUENCY TRIM and set the 1 LO on frequency using a frequency counter connected to the ANT port. (The 1 LO frequency is indicated on the VDT screen next to the RX FREQUENCY). The offset voltage at A2P1-7 will be 2.50 V dc.
  • Page 11: Transmitter Rf Power Output Adjust

    Press the “5” key for the RECEIVER GAIN ADJUST. Adjust this to get a 1 V pp signal at MX919B IC terminal 23 (A2U3-23). Go back and check the RECEIVER DC OFFSET ADJUST, because the RECEIVER GAIN ADJUST interacts with it due to a dc offset in the radio transceiver. 5.2.6 TRANSMITTER RF POWER OUTPUT ADJUST Set service monitor to measure transmitter power.

    • Adjust the balance SMD potentiometer, A1R180. This is adjusted with a small, non- conductive, flat blade screwdriver through a clearance hole (MTH1) in the Controller, A2, CCA. Adjust such that the oscilloscope display shows a square wave with no rounded corners or overshoot.

    6 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR A1 ASSEMBLIES The A1 assembly is made from the A1A1 circuit card assembly Ritron radio transceiver. 6.1 Internal Adjustments Note: All internal adjustments for optimum performance have been performed at Ritron’s factory. These adjustments should not be changed unless one is fairly certain alignment is necessary, or repairs have been made to appropriate sections of the CCA.
