Page 13: Installation & Overview
Installation & Overview 2 Installation & Overview General Description This section describes the installation and theory of operation of the transmitter module. The modules are stand-alone Transmitter Systems powered from 24 VDC and 110/220 VAC power sources. They will amplify an input signal from an L-Band RF source up to power levels of 8, 10, or 12 Watts CW in Ku-Band as shown below. - Page 14 Installation & Overview RF Performance ± 2.5 dB, typ. (±3.5 dB max) over full band Gain Flatness (small signal) ± 0.3 dB, p-p, max. over any 40 MHz at 10 dB back-off Gain Stability with power (expansion) 0.5 dB, max.

Maintenance 3 Operation This chapter describes the verification of the operation and control of the transmitter module. It shall be performed by authorized personnel prior to maintenance and/or repair. Procedure Verify that the installation procedure described in Chapter 2 was completed. A complete physical check of the customer’s system is suggested. -
Page 22: Interface
Maintenance CAUTION! It is strongly recommended not to exceed -20 dBm maximum RF Input level. The RF amplifier will be in deep saturation if overdriven. RF performance will degrade significantly, and proper operation is not possible. This operational condition is the survival mode for the transmitter module. -
