    10 KHz, with an RF output power adjustable up to a maximum of 300W into a 50 Ohm standard load. The TEX300LCD is designed to being contained into a 19” rack box of 2HE. This exciter contains a low-pass filter that reduces the harmonic emissions to below the limits allowed by international regulations (CCIR, FCC or ETSI), and can therefore be used as a transmitter connected directly to the antenna.

    The fuse to be used is this type: Mains Fuse: 8 A-T 5X20 Check that the TEX300LCD switches are in the “OFF” position. The exciter has two switches: one is incorporated in the VDE base for the mains power supply, whereas the second one is on the front panel and inhibits the switching power supply of the machine.

    Activate the RF power output from the “Fnc” menu (chap. 5.4.1). 5.3 Settings and calibration The only adjustments to have made manually on the TEX300LCD are those relating to the audio operation levels and modes. A trimmer for each one of the exciter’s inputs is on the rear panel of the device.

  • Page 16 TEX300LCD After having set a new frequency value, press the ENTER button to confirm the choice. The exciter will release from the current frequency (the LOCK LED turns off) and it will latch onto the new operating frequency (LOCK turns back on). Instead, if you press ESC or let the timeout go by, the frequency will remain set at the previous value.

    TEX300LCD • Modulating signal measurement 8.3.2 PLL/VCO section This board section generates the modulated radiofrequency signal. It is based on a PLL scheme that uses an integrated MB15E06 type. 8.3.3 Driver section Before passing to the final power amplifier, the RF signal is preamplified in this section by an ERA3 transistor. When the exciter is placed on stand-by, the driver is by-passed.

  • Page 28: Control Board

    TEX300LCD 8.5 Control Board The main function of this board is to check and correct the MOSFET polarization voltage of the RF amplifier section. It also provides the measurement of the absorbed current and contains a circuit for signaling power supply unit faults. If no alarms are present, the voltage is adjusted only depending on the set output power, with a feedback mechanism based on the reading of the power really delivered (AGC).
