Section 1 — Warranty/Product Registration 1.1 Warranty Sine Systems, Inc. agrees to repair or replace the AFS-1 Audio Failsafe at no cost, if the unit fails in normal use, during the first year of original ownership. This Warranty does not include damage caused by improper installation or use nor does it include damage caused by any other external means.
Because of exposed terminals, high voltage (greater than 25 volts) should not be connected to the relay terminals, or any other terminals on the AFS-1. If the AFS-1 is connected so that loss of audio turns a transmitter off, the return of audio could turn a transmitter back on.
Section 3 — Specifications 3.1 General Output Relay Operation Output relay contact closes within one second after audio becomes present and remains closed as long audio is present. Output relay contact opens at the end of an adjustable delay period after audio becomes absent.
4.2 Physical Description The AFS-1 is contained in a small "modem-sized" case (5.5" x 5.5" x 1.75") and can be mounted in any convenient location such as on a wall, inside an equipment rack, or it may be rack mounted with an optional kit.
This makes wiring to these connectors considerably easier. 5.4 Power Connection Power to operate the AFS-1 is supplied by a 12 volt AC "wall plug" transformer supplied with the AFS-1. The leads of this transformer should be stripped and connected to the terminals marked "12 VAC"...
5.7 Loss of Power to AFS-1 It should be noted that if power is lost to the AFS-1, the control relay will open. If it is necessary to disconnect power to the AFS-1 without opening the relay contacts, place the switch on the front panel in the "DEFEAT"...
5.9 Modifying Operating Parameters The AFS-1 operating parameters can easily be modified to suit special applications. The period of time required after the loss of audio before the relay contact opens is set at the factory to approximately 4.5 minutes.
Section 6 — Circuit Description 6.1 Audio Section The first two sections of U1 are balanced audio input stages of the "A" and "B" audio inputs. Overall, these have a gain of 0.33 (loss). The next stage combines the two channels and has a gain of 10.
