General InformatIon

IntroduCtIonThe MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard integrates the MT-3 Front Panel Board, MT-3 FM Audio Processor, Synthesizer module and Amplifier module together to comprise a MT-3 series transmitter.

The front panel board and the audio processor are soldered directly to the transmitter mainboard while the amplifier and the synthesizer modules are frequency band sensitive, plug-in modules.

Circuitry and jumpers on the transmitter mainboard control the operation of the modules as well as the overall operation of the MT-3 FM transmitter. Power and signal connections are made through the 48-pin Type F connector on the rear of the transmitter mainboard where they are then routed to the other MT-3 modules.

The transmitter enclosure is formed by the front panel face plate and aluminum shell attached to the transmitter mainboard and the rear panel plate attached to the aluminum shell.

tHeory of oPeratIon

mt-3 fm tranSmItter maInBoard GeneralSwitch SW1 on the Front Panel Board is a double pole, double throw (DPDT) switch that controls the operation of the transmitter.

When SW1 is in the OFF position the transmitter is turned off; however, +13.8 VDC is still present on the transmitter mainboard as the +13.8 VDC supply is not switched. When SW1 is in the KEYED position, +9.5 VDC is supplied to the transmitter circuitry and the transmitter is continuously keyed on. When SW1 is in the NORM position, +9.5 VDC is supplied to the transmitter circuitry and the transmitter can be keyed from any of the several Push-To-Talk inputs.

Theory of Operation6

MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard Instruction ManualIM20-MT3TXMN

transmitter Push-to-talkAll three of the Push-To-Talk (PTT) inputs that key the transmitter are active low (< +2 VDC). One PTT input is on the front panel microphone connector. The other two PTT inputs: PTT WTO (PTT with Time-Out-Timer) and PTT NTO (PTT No Time-Out-Timer) are on the backplane connector of the transmitter board. If required, the microphone’s PTT input can be configured to activate the transmitter’s Time-Out-Timer (TOT). An isolated PTT input can be made available by installing an optional relay (RELAY1) and configuring jumpers J1 to J4 so that the relay controls the PTT circuitry.

microphone PttJumper J1 on the Front Panel Board configures the microphone’s PTT input (MIC PTT) to either bypass or activate the transmitter’s TOT. Installing surface mount jumper J1 in the ‘X’ position (default) selects the MIC PTT NTO line, which bypasses the TOT. Installing surface mount jumper J1 to the ‘Y’ position selects the MIC PTT WTO line, which activates the transmitter’s TOT. When SW1 is in the KEYED position, the MIC PTT NTO line is automatically grounded.

Ptt with time-out-timerPins B10 and Z10 of the backplane connector are the PTT WTO input. When the PTT WTO signal, which is normally high, falls below +2.0 VDC, the transmitter is keyed. The transmitter is disabled when the PTT WTO input rises above +2.3 VDC or if the TOT’s time-out period is exceeded. If the time-out period is exceeded, the PTT WTO input must go high (> +2.3 VDC) and then low again in order to re-key the transmitter.

The PTT WTO threshold of approximately +2 VDC (0.3 VDC hysteresis) is set by U1a, R1, R2, R3, R4, R9 and R10 while diodes D1 and D2 provide over-voltage protection for U1a. The PTT WTO signal output from U1a is ‘AND’ed with the MIC PTT WTO by U2a. When either the PTT WTO or the MIC PTT WTO is activated, the output of U2a goes low, which triggers the transmitter’s TOT located on the FM Audio Processor. The TOT’s output is ‘AND’ed with the MIC PTT NTO signal (U2c) and the PTT NTO signal (U2d).

When any one of the preceding three signals (TOT’s output, MIC PTT NTO, PTT NTO) go low, the transmitter is activated by transistors Q1 to Q7 which switch power to the various modules.

Ptt no time-out-timerPins B14 and Z14 of the backplane connector are the PTT NTO input. When the PTT NTO signal, which is normally high, falls below +2.0 VDC, the transmitter is keyed. As long as the PTT NTO signal remains below +2.0 VDC, the transmitter will remain keyed. The transmitter is disabled when the PTT NTO signal rises above +2.3 VDC.

The PTT NTO threshold of approximately +2 VDC (0.3 VDC hysteresis) is set by U1b, R5, R6, R7, R8, R9 and R10 while diodes D3 and D4 provide over-voltage protection for U1b. The PTT NTO signal is ‘AND’ed with the output of U2c (MIC PTT NTO signal ‘AND’ed with the TOT output) by U2d. When the output of U2d goes low, transistors Q1 to Q7 activate the transmitter, which switch power to the various modules.

Ptt relayThe transmitter’s PTT circuitry can be completely isolated by installing RELAY1. Jumpers J1 to J5 configure the relay to provide an isolated PTT input for either the PTT WTO line or PTT NTO line. Energizing the relay enables the isolated PTT input. The transmitter board will accept any of the Aromat TF2E line relays. These relays are DPDT, single side stable, and have coil voltages ranging from +3 VDC to +48 VDC. Only one set of relay contacts is used to activate the PTT circuitry.

To configure the isolated input for PTT WTO operation, jumpers J2, J3 and J4 must be in the ‘Y’ position. In this mode, pins B10 and Z10 no longer function as the PTT WTO input; however, pins B14 and Z14 continue to function as the normal PTT NTO input.

To configure the isolated input for PTT NTO operation, jumpers J2, J3 and J4 must be in the ‘X’ position. In this mode, pins B14 and Z14 no longer function as the PTT NTO input; however, pins B10 and Z10 continue to function as the normal PTT WTO input.

MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard Instruction Manual IM20-MT3TXMN

Ptt outputPin B24 on the backplane connector is an open drain output (Q9), which is pulled low anytime the transmitter is keyed and the synthesizer is locked. An N-channel MOSFET Q9 is capable of sinking currents up to two amps and is activated by Q8, which is activated by the Qualified PTT signal (JS2-6) of the synthesizer module. The Qualified PTT signal also controls the LED ENA line for diode D1 on the front panel board and enable line for the MT-3 Amplifier Module (JP1-1).

Ptt Voltage SwitchingThe PTT voltage switching circuitry is comprised of transistors Q1 through Q7 and the associated resistors. The base of Q1 is driven by the output of U2d, which is the combined PTT signal from all of the PTT inputs. When the transmitter is keyed, Q1 is turned off and subsequently transistors Q3, Q4 and Q6 are turned on.

Transistors Q3, Q4 and Q6 provide three separate functions:

Q3 Provides the active low signal for the synthesizer module PTT input.

Q4 Turns on Q5, which turns on the +9.5 VDC Switched supply.

Q6 Turns on Q7, which turns on the +9.5 VDC PTT Switched supply.

The +9.5 VDC Switched supply (Q5) can also be activated by installing jumper J6 or by externally grounding the TX Standby Line (pins B12 and Z12). The +9.5 VDC PTT Switched supply and the +9.5 VDC Switched supply both provide +9.5 VDC but, depending on how jumpers J6, J7 and J18 are configured, the transmitter’s standby mode will change.

front Panel BoardThe Front Panel Board is attached to the MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard and is used to mount the front panel switch, diode and microphone connector. The main purpose of the board is to eliminate a wiring harness for the front panel components. Jumper J1, located on the rear of the circuit board, is used to select whether or not the MIC PTT line activates the transmitter’s TOT. Jumper J2 is used to select whether or not RX Audio or 13.8 Volt is supplied to Pin 4 of the microphone.

transmitter Standby modesThe MT-3 series transmitters have eight different standby modes that trade off standby current consumption for start-up speed. Three jumpers are found on the transmitter mainboard:

J6 Continuously enables the +9.5 VDC switched supply.

J7 Selects the power source for the FM Audio Processor.

J18 Selects the enable line for the Synthesizer module.

Additionally, there is a jumper on the FM Audio Processor Board:

JU36 Determines the power source for the dual compression amplifiers.

If JU36 is not installed on the FM Audio Processor, both microphone and balanced audio compression amplifiers will be disabled, eliminating the use of the front panel microphone jack for local microphone operations. With this configuration, the balanced audio is routed around the compression circuitry via JU11 (installed) with JU1 and JU2 removed.

audio CircuitsThe FM Audio Processor performs audio signal conditioning (e.g., limiting, filtering and pre-emphasis). The transmitter mainboard routes the audio lines from the backplane connector to the audio processor and then to the synthesizer.

The audio lines routed to the audio processor are two subtone inputs (backplane pins B22 and Z24), a direct modulation input (pin Z28), a squelched / flat audio input (pin Z20), a 600 Ω balanced input (pins B18 and Z18), and an audio control line (pin Z22). The audio processor’s balanced input pins are isolated from pins B18 and Z18 by a transformer (T1).

Two audio outputs from the FM Audio Processor are routed to the synthesizer modules.

microphone audioNormally the microphone audio is sent from the attached transmitter, however the MIC IN and MIC OUT lines can be configured on the transmitter mainboard such that the microphone audio modulates a different transmitter. The configuration of the MIC IN (pin Z4) and MIC OUT (pin B4) lines on the MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard are controlled by jumpers J16 and J17 respectively. Jumper J16 selects the audio source for the FM Audio Processor’s microphone input. Jumper J17 is used to enable or disable the MIC OUT line. Normally the transmitter’s microphone is selected (J16 in the X position) and the MIC OUT line is enabled (J17 is installed).

received audioPin B20 is the audio input from the transmitter’s corresponding receiver. The default setting for this line is to have it AC coupled (Jumper J9 is out) and directly connected to the front panel board RX AUDIO line.

Channel SelectionSynthesized transmitter Seven backplane connections are used to communicate with the synthesizer unit. Pins D28, D30 and D32 are used (in house) to program the synthesizer. Channel select lines CSEL 0 (least significant bit) through CSEL 3 (most significant bit), which are available at pins D20, D22, D24 and D26, are used once the synthesizer is programmed to select one of 16 channels. If the channel select lines are all low (Channel 1) the channel for the synthesizer is read from switches FSW1 (most significant), FSW2, FSW3 and FSW4 (least significant); otherwise one of 15 pre-programmed frequencies is selected. Refer to the channel designation tables (manual IM20-VT3H040CT) to set the operating frequency.

Theory of Operation10

MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard Instruction ManualIM20-MT3TXMN

Amplifier CircuitsThe MT-3 series Amplifier has six connections that are cabled to the transmitter board:

+13.8 VDC• +9.5 VDC• Enable• Forward Power Sense• Reverse Power Sense• Ground•

The +13.8 VDC supply (JP1-3) is always on while the +9.5 VDC supply (JP1-2) is always switched by a PTT signal. The enable line (JP1-1) is active low and is controlled by the Qualified PTT signal from the synthesizer module.

Jumpers J12, J13, J14 and J15 are used to configure the amplifier’s forward and reverse power sense lines (JP1-4 and JP1-5). Normally jumpers J13, J14 and J15 are in the X position, which directly connects the amplifier’s forward and reverse power sense lines to the backplane connector (pins B26 and Z26 respectively).

The forward and reverse power sense lines from the amplifier can be open collector or linear outputs depending on how they are configured in the amplifier module. In open collector configuration, the lines are active low, that is, the output will go low when a “fail” condition is detected. If both lines from the amplifier module are configured as open collector outputs, the power sense lines can be ‘OR’ed together to make a general fail indicator (jumper J12 in, jumpers J13, J14 and J15 in the Y position).

The Fail Indicator is also an open collector output; however, the Fail Indicator is active high (the output goes high when a “fail” condition is detected). When the transmitter is configured with the general fail indicator option, pin Z26 (VSWR reverse) is not used and pin B26 becomes the Fail Indicator output.

Theory of Operation 11

MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard Instruction Manual IM20-MT3TXMN

time-out-timer CircuitryThe MT-3 FM Transmitter also has an associated programmable push-to-talk (PTT) time-out-timer (TOT) circuitry on the transmitter mainboard. The TOT circuitry is powered via J34 from the continuous +9.5 VDC supply and is programmable for various time-out periods.

The TOT input trigger (enabled by J33) is normally high and in this state the timer is disabled. When the input trigger level falls below +2.0 VDC, the timer is activated, the TOT output trigger (enabled by J35) is pulled low and the transmitter is keyed. If the input trigger rises above +2.4 VDC or if the time-out period is exceeded, the output trigger will go high, disabling the transmitter. If the time-out period is exceeded, the TOT input trigger must go high and then low again in order to re-key the transmitter.

The time-out duration is jumper selectable from 1 second to 8 hours (see Table 1). The positions of the jumpers are on the top (through-hole component) side of the transmitter mainboard.

fm audIo ProCeSSor

IntroductionThe FM Audio Processor is a versatile circuit board that can provide several types of audio processing for voice or data transmission (see Figure 1).

Bandwidth table

term Channel Spacingrated System deviation

wide band (wB) 25 kHz or 30 kHz ±5.00 kHz

Features include:

• Automatic level control using a compression amplifier with a 25 dB dynamic range

• Limiter and splatter filter that removes noise and harmonics

• Selectable pre-emphasis or flat audio response

• Temperature compensated audio output

• Ability to transmit data and voice switched by a single control line

• Multiple jumpers that can be configured to allow maximum flexibility in routing signals from inputs to outputs and disabling selected circuits to reduce operating current

• Dual microphone and balanced audio compression circuits

• On-board multi-configurable temperature compensation to correct for changes in transmitter deviation over temperature caused by changing characteristics of synthesizers and oscillators

• A single chip 10th Order Linear Phase Low Pass Splatter Filter for increased cut-off attenuation responses

• Separate voice and direct modulation outputs, each individually configurable

• Direct modulation input for LTR®, DCS, paging and other digital modulations that require very low frequency modulation to the synthesizer module

• Multiple audio inputs for various audio filter or modulation configurations

NOTE: If dual mode CTCSS and LTR® / DCS is desired in the same transmitter, it may be possible with dual port modulation synthesizers. It is not feasible with single port modulation synthesizers. These synthesizers are characterized by the lack of a modulation port in their VCO circuit. Contact the Daniels factory for further details.

A continuous +9.5 VDC supply and a switched +8.0 VDC supply are required to power the module which is normally supplied by the transmitter mainboard.

The FM Audio Processor’s balanced input pins are isolated by a transformer (T1) on the transmitter mainboard. Two audio outputs from the FM Audio Processor are routed to the synthesizer module.

For the interconnections and functions of the FM Audio Processor external connections, see Figure 2. Connectors P1, P2, P3, and P4 are four-pin audio processor headers soldered directly to the transmitter mainboard. For troubleshooting isolation, the audio processor could be unsoldered from the mainboard and analyzed. Power and I/O connections, as well as their expected levels, are shown in this diagram.

turn-on timeTurn-on Time is the time it takes the FM Audio Processor to output a stable audio signal to P3-1 once the +8.0 VDC power is enabled. The turn-on time can be virtually eliminated by configuring the audio processor for continuous audio standby; however, this results in increased current consumption. Powering of the compression amplifier contributes to most of the time delay, so transmitters configured with the compression amplifier disabled (for data or non-compressed audio) will exhibit the fast turn-on time. The response measurement is made with the standard factory settings with a 1 kHz tone applied to the balanced input.

low frequency modulationThe transmitter has an additional option to address low frequency user modulation requirements. A phase modulated bandwidth from 0 (DC) to 100 Hz (PLL loop filter bandwidth) allows specialized applications such as paging or trunking where a separate low frequency digital / analog modulation channel is required. Low Frequency Modulation allows external access to the low frequency modulation capabilities of the synthesizer module. The DIRECT MODULATION inputs on the J1 control connector of the MT-3 Motherboard will be used (B20 for TX A, and A20 for TX B).

fm audio Processor SignalsThe FM Audio Processor has six audio inputs, two audio outputs and one audio control input. Five of the audio inputs are used primarily for voice and tone signals. The sixth, the Direct Modulation Input, is used primarily for data signals. The audio control input is used to switch audio outputs so the transmitter can transmit voice or data.

The audio inputs on the audio processor are:

• Dynamic microphone input

• 600 Ω balanced input

• Subtone inputs

• Auxiliary input

• Direct modulation input for data signals

fm audio Processor outputsBoth the audio outputs, Modulation Output (P3-1) and Low Frequency / Direct Modulation Output (P4-2), are gated by audio switches U5 and U6 respectively which are controlled by the Transmit Audio Control Input (P4-4). The audio switches can be operated complimentary to each other so that only one source modulates the transmitter. In standard configuration, the Modulation Output port is used so switch U5 is always on.

MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard Instruction ManualIM20-MT3TXMN

fm audio Processor modulation outputsThe Modulation Output port is used by all voice input signals. The voice inputs are passed to U1A and U1B, a dual programmable compressor-expander that is configured as an automatic level control amplifier. Op-Amp U3A provides the limiting action for the audio processor.

After the audio signals have been combined, limited and buffered, they are filtered by a 10th order Linear Phase Low Pass Filter (U4). The output signal from the filter is then level adjusted by the deviation control pot, R29, at the input of buffer amplifier U3D. In special applications, jumper JU6 can be disabled and JU7 enabled allowing the transmitter to be modulated directly from the auxiliary input. External filtering may be required since jumper JU7 bypasses the limiting and filter circuits.

The Low Frequency / Direct Modulation Output port has two functions depending on whether the transmitter is synthesized. In a synthesized transmitter, this port is used to modulate the synthesizer reference frequency. The frequency response of this port is typically DC to 300 Hz.

fm audio Processor microphone Input The microphone input has an automatically level controlled (ALC) pre-amplifier U1 whose input level is controlled by R2. The microphone input level control (R2) can accommodate a -25 dBm to 0 dBm input signal. The microphone input is limited and filtered and is output at the standard modulation output port. The microphone input can have a standard 6 dB/octave pre-emphasis response or a flat-audio response, jumper JU1 at Y and X position respectively.

fm audio Processor Balanced InputThe 600 Ω balanced input uses the ALC pre-amplifier U1B with input level control pot (R31). The balanced input level control can accommodate a -25 dBm to 0 dBm input. (Install JU17 when using the lower input levels). Like the microphone input, the balanced input is limited and filtered and is output at the standard modulation output port.

If no compression is required (i.e., customer is providing their own), JU11 can be enabled providing a path through R48 (Auxiliary Input Level Control) to amplifier U2C where pre-emphasis or flat audio can then be selected from its output.

fm audio Processor auxiliary InputThe auxiliary input is a special input and does not have an ALC. This input can be configured for a pre-emphasis response (enable JU9 Y) or a flat-audio response (enable JU9 X). The level for this input is set by R48. The auxiliary output is normally summed with the voice signals by Op-Amp U3A, limited, then filtered and output at the standard modulation output port. The value of R57 (Select) can be tailored for specific applications.

When jumper JU6 is disabled and jumper JU7 is enabled, the auxiliary input can be used to directly modulate the transmitter. Care should be taken when directly modulating the transmitter with the auxiliary input because the MT-3 transmitters use direct FM modulation and there is no filtering or limiting action provided by the auxiliary input. The input level to the auxiliary input should be -18 dBm and can be driven by one of three inputs:

• balanced input – JU11

• tone / digital input – JU12 X or Y enabled

• direct modulation input – through JU28

When the 600 Ω balanced input is connected to the auxiliary input, the balanced input level control can be used to adjust the level for the auxiliary input.

MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard Instruction Manual IM20-MT3TXMN

fm audio Processor Subtone InputsThere are two subtone inputs available on the FM Audio Processor. Both subtone inputs can be individually configured to be output from the standard Modulation Output port or to be output from the Low Frequency / Direct Modulation Output. In standard configuration, Subtone 1 is summed with the voice signals to be output from the standard Modulation Output port while Subtone 2 is used for DCS. Both subtone inputs have an input level control.

In order to maintain a uniform frequency response from 50 Hz to 300 Hz, dual-port modulation techniques are used. Refer to the schematic diagrams and alignment procedures included in this manual.

direct modulation InputThe Direct Modulation Input is an extremely versatile input. This port is designed to be used for data signals. Depending on the application, the signal can be amplified, AC or DC coupled and output to the Modulation Output or the Low Frequency / Direct Modulation Output port. Please consult the factory for specific jumper settings for your application.

MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard Instruction ManualIM20-MT3TXMN

fm audio Processor Signal PathsVoice band audio normally enters the Balanced Input at P1-1 and P1-2 on the subrack connector while microphone audio enters at P1-3. Potentiometer R31 sets the balanced compression level of U1B while R2 sets the microphone compression level of U1A (see Figure 3).

Each amplifier has a dynamic range of 25 dB. Jumper JU17 is only installed when using very low input levels (-18 to -25 dBm) and allows better tuning range for R31. The output of the compression amplifiers are normally set for pre-emphasis (6 dB/Octave) but can be set for a flat audio response using jumpers JU1 and JU2.

The microphone and balanced audio signals are summed and limited by U3A. Op-Amp U3B provides audio level temperature compensation (for synthesizer sensitivity variations). Due to the many different characteristics of various synthesizers, many components are selected for best performance over the temperature range.

The audio is then filtered by a 10th order linear phase low pass splatter filter U3a and U3B (see Figure 4). This is to provide the linearity and cut-off attenuation response required for narrow band operation and digital applications.

The filter output level is set by R29, the deviation control. From this point, the signal goes to U5 a bilateral audio switch. U5 is normally configured to be always on. The output of U5 goes to the final buffer amplifier U3D. Installing JU23 lowers the audio level by one half facilitating a quick conversion of a wide band transmitter for narrow band operation. The output of U3D has many capacitors with values selected depending on the installed synthesizer module type.

MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard Instruction ManualIM20-MT3TXMN

If no compression circuitry is required, the balanced input signals can be routed around the compression circuitry using jumper JU11. Op-Amp U2C then provides buffering and amplification. Pre-emphasis filtering at the output is enabled or disabled using jumper JU9. The audio signal is then normally routed to U3A, the summing amplifier / limiter and processed as indicated previously.

NOTE: If compression is bypassed (see Figure 5), the THD may be higher due to the reduced dynamic input range causing more clipping. “Key down” current consumption can be reduced by 9 mA by disconnecting the compression amplifier power (removing JU36), however, the microphone circuit will be disabled.

Assuming no data modulation, a second way to route around audio compression is via the direct modulation port P4-3 and route through JU28 to R48 and Op-Amp U2C. Sub-audible tones enter at P2-2 where level is controlled by R42. A single jumper JU16 enables the audio path to U3A, the summing amplifier / limiter.

Voltage regulator U2A provides a regulated +4.0 VDC to all Op-Amp stages. Optional potentiometer R14 can be installed (and JU15 removed) for special applications where a voltage other than +4.0 VDC is required.

Data normally enters at P4-3, the Direct Modulation Input, and is connected via many possible routes selected with jumpers. JU43 allows direct or on-board capacitor coupling. Op-Amp U2B can be configured as a buffer with a DC offset to accommodate input data that has a positive DC voltage offset. The data signals can be sent to gain buffers U2C and U2D through potentiometer R48. Jumper JU14 is normally installed so that the output from U2D provides the correct data polarity when using two-port modulation. See Figure 6.

A single TX Audio control line on P4-4 has 2 functions. It can be configured to switch U3D inputs between data and voice. Alternately, it can be configured to remotely switch between wide band and narrow band applications by switching between the regular audio path and one carrying half the audio level as determined by resistive divider comprised of R22 and R21.

rePaIr noteMT-3 FM Transmitter modules are mainly made up of surface mount devices which should not be removed or replaced using an ordinary soldering iron. Removal and replacement of surface mount components should be performed only with specifically designed surface mount rework and repair stations complete with Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection.

When removing Surface Mount Solder Jumpers, it is recommended to use solder braid in place of manual vacuum type desoldering tools. This will help prevent damage to the circuit boards.

reCommended teSt equIPment l IStAlignment of the complete transmitter requires the following test equipment or its equivalent. It is assumed that any adjustment of the transmitter mainboard will also involve the other modules.

Dual Power Supply: Regulated +9.5 VDC at 2 A (e.g., Topward TPS-4000) Regulated +13.8 VDC at 2 A

Oscilloscope: 20 MHz or better (e.g., Fluke 97 Scopemeter)

Digital Multimeter: For DC, RMS AC voltage and current (e.g., Fluke 75)

Radio Communications Test Set: E.g., Marconi Instruments 2955R

VSWR 3:1 Mismatch Load: E.g., JFW 50T-035-3.0:1

Alignment Tool: Johanson 4192

Audio Signal Generator: 600 Ω output impedance, 67 Hz to 5 kHz range

It is recommended that the radio communications test set be frequency-locked to an external reference (WWVH, GPS, Loran C) so that the high stability oscillator may be accurately set to within its ±1 ppm frequency tolerance.

General InformatIonBefore proceeding with the transmitter alignment, check that the appropriate jumpers are installed. See Standard Factory Settings and Jumper Configuration section.

Transmitter alignment is simplified by using a MT-3 Subrack, SM-3 System Regulator and RF extender cable to provide transmitter power and signal interconnection. Alternatively, connect power and audio to the subrack connector as follows:

Subrack Connector P1 Pin+9.5 VdC B6, Z6+13.8 VdC B2, Z2Ground B30, Z30, B32, Z32600 Ω Balanced Audio across B18 and Z18

SyntHeSIZer module InStallatIon and remoValTo remove the Synthesizer module, simply remove the centre screw from the module lid and pull the module out. The module should be pulled straight out so that the four alignment pins do not bend or damage the circuit board.

Installation of the synthesizer module is facilitated by alignment pins on each corner of the module. When the four pins are aligned with their corresponding hole in the transmitter mainboard, push the module down, ensuring that the connector pins on the bottom of the synthesizer module are not bent.

Standard faCtory SettInGS and JumPer ConfIGuratIonSThe standard jumper configuration for the transmitter mainboard is normally employed for transmitter alignment. In a standard configuration, the only alignment required on the MT-3 FM Transmitter Mainboard for a synthesized transmitter is to set the frequency switches (FSW1, FSW2, FSW3 and FSW4) for the desired channel frequency. FSW1 is the most significant digit of the frequency switches. The switch settings for the desired channel frequency can be found in the channel designation tables (IM20-VT3H040CT).

fm audIo ProCeSSor alIGnmentPrior to commencing the standard deviation adjustment procedure, determine the specific configuration of the transmitter (e.g., flat audio, pre-emphasis).

The following points should be noted:

• If the transmitter’s operating frequency is changed beyond the factory recommended bandwidth or if the synthesizer is changed, the FM Audio Processor should be realigned to optimize the transmitter’s performance. The settings tolerance is +/- 0.1 kHz.

• There are slight differences when setting up the transmitter for Flat Audio or Pre-emphasized audio. Although the tuning procedure is the same, there will be skipped sections depending on the transmitter type being tested.

• Although the transmitter is most commonly set up for a single frequency operation, there are times when an application requires multiple frequencies per transmitter. This also changes the standard tuning procedure slightly.

• Due to the variations in the circuitry between models of synthesizer, oscillator and audio processor, version specific tuning steps are outlined in italics.

• Section C is not an alignment procedure but is included as a final performance measurement that confirms correct audio processor alignment.

multiple Channel transmittersIn the tuning of the FM Audio Processor for multiple channel transmitters, the procedures on the following pages apply.

NOTE: The maximum deviation is set on the channel, which gives the maximum deviation when using a 1.8 kHz tone @ +10 dBm. Once that level is set (R29), it is not adjusted again.

The rest of the tuning instructions are carried out while the transmitter frequency is set for the channel, which is roughly in the middle of the band of pre-programmed channels.

frequency response testMeasurements are made at JU8 with respect to ground.

1. Reduce Audio Generator level to –18 dBm (98 mV RMS).

2. Step frequency to 300, 500, 1000, 2000 and 2500 Hz.

3. Ensure that the results conform to the 6 dB/octave +/- 1 dB from 500 Hz to 2500 Hz referenced to 1000 Hz (+1/-2 dB at 300 Hz).

Subtone Input test

1. Change Audio Generator frequency to 100 Hz and maintain level at –18 dBm (98 mV RMS).

2. Connect signal to Subtone Input 1 (P2-2) and ground (P1-4).

3. Refer to the Waveform Levels Table above and confirm levels.

temPerature ComPenSatIonThe FM Audio Processor includes temperature compensation circuitry to maintain a constant transmitter audio deviation with a fixed level input signal. It is capable of not only compensating for temperature related level variations within the audio processor (typically –0.3 to –0.5 dB at –40ºC), but can also compensate for changes caused by the synthesizer that is not equipped with its own temperature compensation.

Specifications:When a 1.8 kHz tone is applied at a level of +10 dBm to the balanced input of the transmitter, the transmitter deviation shall be ±4.4 kHz at room temperature and can vary from ±4.4 kHz to ±5.0 kHz from -40ºC to +60ºC.

Since the specifications of the components used in the synthesizer or oscillator may change over time, changes to the temperature compensation circuit may be necessary even for the same type of equipment.
