Remote Control:
The remote head is not supplied from RM Italy however the circuit diagram below shows the requirements
of creating a remote front panel if required. The connector is an RJ45 type and cable length should be no
more than 3m in length. The remote front panel controls offer the same functionality as the front panel of
the KL506.
The function of the pins present on the remote connector as as follows:
1.
Ground
2.
Preamplifier ON input
3.
Wattmeter signal output
4.
Power output for the remote command
5.
Hi power input
6.
Linear amplifier ON input
7.
Low power input
8.
SSB input
At no time should should voltage appear on pins 5 & 7 at the same time.
When using the remote control, the switches on the front panel should be set as follows:
Preamplifier OFF
Linear Amplifier OFF
SSB / AM - AM Mode
Power set to Mid, (center), position.
The digram below shows the circuit diagram of the remote control circuit and pin out of the RJ46 front
Warranty:
The KL506 is covered by a 24 month warranty against manuafacturing defects, from the
date of purchase. The RF transistors, external and asthetic damage are not included in the
warranty.

  • Page 6 Running the amplifier a little under max output will also allow the amplifier to run cooler and make it more reliable for many years of use. The KL506 may be used for all of the common narrow band transmission modes such as SSB, CW,AM,FM, SSTV and data modes etc.
