  • Page 31 MHPTV TX Quick Start Guide 3. You are now ready to bring the TX up to power. To accomplish this, slowly increase the drive level out of the Exciter by increasing the POWER setting in the Exciter RF submenu while watching the Sys FWD power increase accordingly on the Controller touchscreen.
  • Page 32 MHPTV TX Quick Start Guide 5. Continue to slowly raise the FWD power until you reach the max power rating of the TX or your lower desired TPO. Check to be sure that the PA device currents do not exceed the full power operating currents as shown in your Factory Test Report.
  • Page 33 MHPTV TX Quick Start Guide Linear and Non-Linear corrections were performed and optimized at the TX rated TPO in the factory and so the stored correction coefficients should produce good results if you are operating at or close to the TX max output power.
  • Page 34 MHPTV TX Quick Start Guide Set Target AGC Power to desired TPO Press AGC button to turn AGC ON (will illuminate Green) 8. Press the HOME button to return to the HOME screen to monitor FWD power With the AGC engaged, the FWD power metering may vary up to +/- 5%, so for a 1500W TPO, meter variations from 1425W to 1575W may be experienced.
  • Page 35 MHPTV TX Quick Start Guide 10. Your TX should now be up and running properly into your load or on-air antenna. Continue to monitor system parameters as you allow the transmitter to warm up to temperature and stabilize at full output power for another 30 minutes.
