Preface

Radio for occupational use

The SAILOR 6000B MF/HF DSC fulﬁ ls the requirements of the SOLAS directive and is intended for use in maritime environment. SAILOR 6000B MF/HF DSC is designed for occupational use only and must be operated by licensed personnel only. SAILOR 6000B MF/HF DSC is not intended for use in an uncontrolled environment by general public.

Training information

The SAILOR 6000B MF/HF DSC is designed for occupational use only and is also classiﬁ ed as such. It must be ope- rated by licensed personnel only. It must only be used in the course of employment by individuals aware of both the hazards as well as the way to minimize those hazards.

The radio is thus NOT intended for use in an uncontrolled environment by general public. The SAILOR 6000 MF/HF DSC has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for Occupational Use Only. The radio also complies with the following guidelines and standards regarding RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels including the recommended levels for human exposure:

• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, evaluating compliance with FCC guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic ﬁ elds.

• American National Standards Institute (C95.1) IEEE standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic ﬁ elds, 3 kHz to 300 GHz

• American National Standards Institute (C95.3) IEEE recommended practice for the measurement of potentially hazardous electromagnetic ﬁ elds - RF and microwaves.

Warning

The SAILOR radio set generates electromagnetic RF (radio frequency) energy when transmitting. To ensure that no personnel will be exposed to excessive amounts of RF-energy and to avoid health hazards from excessive exposure to RF energy, the following safety distances must be followed:

Antenna Safety distance

150W Calculated: 1.71 m or 5.7 feet

250W Calculated: 2.21 m or 7.3 feet

500W Calculated: 3.12 m or 10.3 feet

Calculations cover a whip antenna with a maximum gain of 3dBi, worst case frequency (30 MHz), full power and 100% duty cycle (transmitter always on) considering the most conservative limits mentioned in:

 FCC OET Bulletin 65 (1997)  Canada RSS102 (2010)  Canada Safety Code 6 (2015)

Installation Example for 150W

1. A whip antenna with a maximum gain of 3 dBi must be mounted at least 12.3 ft. (3.71m) above the highest deck where people may be staying during continuous radio transmissions. The distance is to be measured vertically from the lowest point of the antenna. This provides the minimum separation distance which is in compliance with RF exposure requirements and is based on the MPE radius of 5.7 feet (1.71 m) plus the 6.6 ft. (2.0 m) height of an adult.

2. On vessels that cannot fulﬁ ll requirements in item 1, the antenna must be mounted so that the lowest point of the antenna is at least 5.7 feet (1.71m) vertically above the heads of people on deck and all persons must be outside the 5.7 feet MPE radius during radio transmission.

• Always mount the antenna at least 5.7 feet from possible human accessNever touch the antenna when transmitting.

• Never touch the antenna when transmitting.

• Use only authorized T&T accessories.

• Only allow trained and certiﬁ ed operators knowing about RF-energy and hazards to operate the radio.

3. If the antenna has to be placed in public areas or near people with no awareness of the radio transmission, the antenna must be placed at an even greater distance. Consult the appropriate standard for exact limits, depending on national speciﬁ cations.

Failure to observe any of these warnings may cause RF exposure exceeding above mentioned limits or create dangerous conditions..

General information

1.1 Introduction

The 150 W/250 W/500 W MF/HF transceiver with integrated DSC and telex (NBDP) is designed for maritime applications in voluntary as well as compulsorily ﬁ tted vessels. It offers simplex and semi-duplex SSB radiotelephone communication in the maritime mobile frequency bands between 1.6 and 30 MHz. The basic version of the transceiver includes voice, DSC and a dedicated 2187.5 KHz DSC watch receiver, forming an ideal system for MF GMDSS installations. The equipment consists of a compact transceiver control unit, a fully remote controlled transceiver unit and an automatic antenna tuning unit. The microprocessor controlled Antenna Tuning Unit automatically matches the impedance of antennas between 8 and 18 metres in length and requires no presetting at the installation. It is designed for outdoor installation and may be located up to 100 metres from the Transceiver Unit. The Transceiver Unit contains all receiver and transmitter circuits. The fully protected solid state 150 W/ 250 W /500 W power ampliﬁ er matches a 50 ohm antenna system, but is normally used in connection with the Antenna Tuning Unit. The DSC/Telex modem contains two demodulators, one connected to the built-in watch receiver for continuous watch on the DSC distress frequencies, the other connected to the communication receiver which may be used to keep simultaneous watch on other DSC frequencies or telex communication. The transceiver can be upgraded to scan 6 DSC channels, and Telex operation to comply with MF/HF requirements in sea area A4. Codes are purchased as accessories for the system. The Control Unit is for operation of radiotelephony as well as DSC and conﬁ guration. Use of the equip- ment is simple, logic and straight forward. DSC operation is based on the use of soft keys. Guiding texts are provided and the large display is able to show the contents of a complete call in one screen. For telex operation the Message Terminal must be connected to the system via the CAN bus. The equipment is designed for operation from a 24 V DC supply, like e.g. a battery. With the optional AC Power Supply unit installed the equipment may be supplied from 115/230 V AC main or emergency supplies with automatic switch-over to 24 V DC supply in the absence of AC supply voltage. Also optionally, a battery charger for AC is available in the product line. The built-in test facilities and easy-to-replace module design of the equipment simpliﬁ es the service concept.

Dissipated heat: The dissipated heat in standby RX mode is typically 45 W depending on attached ancillary equipment. In transmit mode, use the consumption ﬁ gures for the appropriate mode, multiplied by 0.66. E.g. 0.66 x 175 W = 115.5 W dissipated heat for a 150 W system in SSB speech mode.

For a ﬁ gure in kilocalories (kcal), multiply dissipation effect by on-time in hours and then by 0.860. For the 150W system, e.g. 115.5 W x 2 h + 45 W x 22 h (TX 2 hours + RX 22 hours a day) = 1221 Wh. 1221 Wh x 0.860 ~ 1050 kcal a day.

2.2.4 Recommended ATU installation

On a metal-hull vessel

Install the ATU using the ATU Mounting Kit. The kit is stainless steel which can be bolted or welded to ship's hull to ensure good and solid connection as the radio system primary ground point. The mounting kit will, at the same time ensure straight and ﬂ at mounting surface for the ATU cabinet and provide good airﬂ ow around the ATU for better heat dissipation.

On a wooden or ﬁ breglass hull vessel

Install the ATU using the ATU Mounting Kit. The kit is made of stainless steel and may be bolted to ship’s hull and serve as the ATU grounding point and the radio system’s primary ground point. The ground-plane should preferably be provided by as wide a surface as possible with shortest possible connection to the ATU grounding point. The ground-plane may be establish in various ways such as e.g. through connecting all accessible metal parts together and connecting to the ATU ground point.

ATU Mounting Kit

An optional ATU Mounting Kit as shown below is available in two versions:

1. Comprises mounting plate and ﬁ ttings for mast - part no. 737589 For mounting the ATU directly on a mast, where the Mounting Plate and ﬁ ttings for mast can form a sufﬁ cient earth connection on a steel mast welded to the superstructure.

2. Comprises the mounting plate only  - part no. 737588 To get an even mounting surface on an uneven support.

Grounding considerations

2.3 Ground connections

2.3.1 Grounding considerations

Proper system grounding is the most important installation detail for obtaining proper RF performance of the MF/HF system. Two areas of grounding must be considered:

a) The grounding connection between the ATU and grounding plane. b) The grounding connection of the TU and the externally connected equipment.

Each area requires separate considerations even though they are interrelated. Ideally the Control Unit, Transceiver Unit, Antenna Tuning Unit and the antenna ground-plane should all have the same RF ground potential. Unfortunately this is seldomly achievable, but interference problems will be reduced proportionately to how close to this "ideal" situation the actual grounding of the installation is achieved. Ground loops may cause problems with heavy interference in an installation. A ground loop is caused by more than one ground path being present for a given unit. This will introduce circulating RF currents which may cause malfunction of other equipment onboard the ship as well as a “hot” handset.

2.3.2 RF ground loop

It is not always possible or practical to install the ATU so as to allow for a very short connection to the actual ground-plane. In such a case the coaxial cable connecting the ATU and the TU each with a different ground potential, will cause RF loop currents to ﬂ ow.

2.3.3 Minimizing ground loops

By routing the coax cable very close together with the ATU grounding strap (i.e. secure good RF coupling between the two) all the way down to the ground-plane, there will be no RF ground loop left to generate any interference.

2.3.4 Antenna start

The vertical antenna always "starts" at its electrical ground-plane, whether or not it is physically mounted there. First determine the antenna’s electrical ground-plane, which is where the ATU should preferrably be installed. Where possible always take the ATU to the ground, not the ground to the ATU. In case of a ﬁ breglass boat, the ground-plane may well be at the hull grounding terminal. Then this will be where the antenna actually "starts" and hence where the ATU preferrably should be installed.

2.3.5 Antenna Tuning Unit

It is of the utmost importance that the ATU grounding connection provides the lowest possible RFimpedance. Losses in the ground connection will result in a decrease in radiated power which means that the range of the transmitter will be reduced. For ATU grounding in steel ships a 100 x 0.5 mm copper strap is connected between the ground terminal at the bottom of the Antenna Tuning Unit and the Antenna Mounting Kit welded to the superstructure or, if not using the ATU Mounting Kit then to two or three ½" or M12 bolts welded to the superstructure. The length of this copper grounding strap should be kept as short as possible within app. 0.5 m in order to ensure that its RF impedance remains within reasonable limits.

Chapter 2: Installation

98-144591-D

In case the described copper strap material should not be readily available, a corresponding length of a 3-conductor cable of minimum 25mm² (AWG 3) stranded conductor cross sectional area may be used as illustrated below. This illustration further shows how shielding of the grounding connection to reduce RF radiation from the ground leads may be achieved, if required, by grounding the cable shield at the ATU end only.

Shielded ground downlead

It is recommended to install the ATU by means of the ATU mounting bracket shown in section 2.2.4 as this stainless steel bracket can be welded to the super structure and will provide the best possible none corroding ground connection. On ships constructed of non-conductive material such as wood or ﬁ berglass other means of establishing a ground plane must be found, such as an external copper ground plate below the water line (e.g. a standard Dynaplate) or utilizing existing internal steel framing or e.g. connecting all accessible metal parts together and use this a ground-plane. As stated in paragraph 2.3.4 it is important that ground loops be minimized by taking the ATU to the ground rather than taking the ground to the ATU. However, it should not be attempted to install the ATU indoors as this would result in a need to pass the antenna feed wiring through deck and/or bulkhead feedthroughs etc. having severe impact on the RF performance, not to mention the RF ﬁ elds generated around the feed wiring causing problems in other installations and equipment.

In situations where the grounding connection of the ATU/antenna system cannot be kept within the indicated length limit, ﬁ nding workable alternative means of grounding through e.g. a longer grounding connection between the ground-plane and the ATU, may require trial and error methods to be applied in order to ﬁ nd a workable solution. It is important here to keep in mind the initial statement of this paragraph saying that the longer the grounding connection, the higher the RF impedance of this and consequently the RF loss, resulting in less power radiated from the antenna. It should also be noted that, as no two situations are alike, having found a workable solution for one situation this may not necessarily prove workable for another.

2.3.6 Transceiver Unit and Control Unit

The Transceiver Unit is preferably grounded separately to the ships metal in the shortest possible way. A 10mm² (AWG 7) to 16mm² (AWG 5) ground wire is connected to the ground terminal (cable clamp) at the bottom of the unit.

2.4 Antennas

With the SAILOR 6000B-series MF/HF a two-antenna conﬁ guration is introduced which implies that SSB, DSC and Telex reception all take place using a separate RX antenna, as opposed to previous SAILOR MF/HF systems (SAILOR 6000A-, SAILOR 5000-, SAILOR 4000- and SAILOR 2000-series) in which SSB reception takes place using a common TX/RX antenna.

The fact that SSB reception in the SAILOR 6000B-series takes place using a separate RX antenna implies that the same considerations that were given to selecting the proper position of the combined RX/TX antenna in previous systems, must be given to the position of both the RX and TX antenna in a SAILOR 6000B MF/HF system installation.

2.4.1 Transmitter Antenna

The transmitter antenna should be erected in the open, away from conducting object such as derricks etc. which may cause reduction of the radiated power. Insulators used should be of the best type having low leakage even when wet. Stays, wires, steel masts etc. should be either effectively grounded or

insulated. The antenna should also be kept as far away as possible from electrical equipment in order to minimize noise. Electrical installations such as cable braiding (screens) and instruments in the vicinity of the antenna should be grounded effectively, and the instruments in question should be ﬁ tted

with noise-interference suppression

devices, effective in the range 0.1 MHz

to 30 MHz to avoid malfunction of these instruments. The Antenna Tuning Unit will tune on any frequency in the range

1.6 to 27 MHz to good whip and/or wire installations of 12 to 18 m total electrical length. Shorter antennas, total electrical length down to 8 m, can be used. Where possible longer antennas should be installed to maximize the radiated power in the lower frequency bands.

In general a recommended 12 m antenna installation can be made up using an 8 m whip and 4.5 m feeder or a 10 m whip and 2.5 m feeder. In both cases the whip should be mounted on a pole allowing for the feeder to be erected at an angle of no less than 45-60 degrees to create a vertical antenna system. Using horizontal feeders or feeders mounted at an angle below 45 degrees usually transform the antenna radiation resistance to a lower

value reducing the radiated power. The total antenna system should be kept well away from conductive objects such as the mast, stays, wires etc. a horizontal distance of 6-8 m should be aimed at.

The antenna is terminated at the insulator at the top of the Antenna Tuning Unit. The insulator must be relieved from mechanical stress by using max. 1 meter ﬂ exible wire between the insulator and a support. To maximize the radiated power and avoid ﬂ ash over keep distance to metal parts as long as possible. All wire junctions in the antenna system must be made with cable lugs of correct size according to the wire gauge. This will prevent bad connections due to corrosion. For further corrosion prooﬁ ng grease may be applied to the cable joints.

2.4.2 Considerations on antenna length requirements

Antenna impedance

The length of the transmitting antenna used with MF/HF equipment in general and the MF/HF equipment speciﬁ cally for purpose of this discussion is of utmost importance for the proper performance of the equipment, i.e. the ability to tune properly to the antenna and the effective transmission range. In terms of transmission range, more important than increasing the transmitter RF output power from say 150 W to 250 W is in fact the use of an adequate length antenna. Comparatively, any practical length whip antenna remains too short for the wavelength for which it is used, especially at the lower frequencies. For the frequency range 1.6 – 30 MHz deﬁ ning the commercial MF/HF marine band, the wavelength spans the range 190 – 10 m approximately.

A proper ground-plane for the TX antenna is essential in order for this to effectively radiate power into the air. An RF transmitter connected directly to a whip antenna which is in the presence of the ground-plane, looks into an impedance between the whip antenna and the ground-plane which varies considerably with frequency and hence would cause varying load on the transmitter power ampliﬁ er.

As an illustration of the typical impedance variation versus frequency of a whip antenna refer to below ﬁ gure.

Function of the Antenna Tuning Unit (ATU)

The MF/HF transmitter power ampliﬁ er (PA) provides a ﬁ xed output impedance of 50 ohms over its operating frequency range to which the load (the antenna) should be matched (i.e. load should preferably be 50 ohms also) in order for the transmitter to deliver its full power output to the load. However, with the varying impedance of an antenna, as described above such conditions will not be met . On the remaining frequencies within the transmission band the varying mismatch between the transmitter ﬁ xed output impedance and the different impedance of the antenna at any given frequency, will result in reduced RF power delivered to the antenna – in worst case hardly any power at all - if the antenna was connected directly to the transmitter. To overcome the frequency dependant mismatch between the transmitter output impedance and the antenna (load) impedance, the ATU is put into the antenna circuit to provide variable compensation counteracting the varying impedance of the antenna, the end result of which is the “transformation” of this into a “ﬁ xed” app. 50ohms load, as seen from the transmitter.

The required compensation is achieved through insertion of the correct combination of inductors and capacitors in series with the antenna to form a resonance circuit at the given frequency. Hence, depending on the impedance of the antenna (i.e. the transmission frequency) a suitable combination of inductors and capacitors are put in-circuit through a number of relays, all controlled by the ATU processor during the tuning process.

MF/HF ATU

The 6000-series ATUs will easily tune to the varying impedance of an 8 m whip antenna with a properly installed 4 m feed wire, over the operating frequency range 0.15 – 30 MHz. A slightly shorter antenna system might be used at the possible sacriﬁ ce of the ability to tune at the extreme low end of the frequency band below 2 MHz. However, the impedance of the antenna system is inﬂ uenced by any nearby metallic objects such as the vessel's superstructure and/or nearby metal poles/masts or stays/wires. Consequently, in order not to alter the impedance of the antenna system which may eventually cause difﬁ culties for the ATU to match the resulting impedance, the transmitting antenna should be kept at a distance of no less than 6-8 m from any such objects. Similarly goes for the feed wire connecting the ATU to the antenna which should be kept at a minimum of 1 m from metallic objects. It should be noted that even though the ATU will tune to the mentioned antenna system length, the effective radiated power (i.e. the efﬁ ciency of the antenna) in the low frequency end may suffer com- pared to longer antenna systems of recommended electrical length 10-18 m.

Electrical connection of transmitting antennas

The connection to the transmitting antenna is by a single ended wire - the feed wire - connecting from the ATU insulator (see ﬁ gure on page 2-12). This feed wire adds to the electrical length of the antenna (when correctly installed), thus in effect increasing the efﬁ ciency of the antenna. The longer the feed wire the better the efﬁ ciency of the antenna system consisting of transmitting antenna and the feed wire. For direct addition of feed wire length to antenna electrical length, the feed wire should be vertically installed as an extension downwards of the transmitting antenna. In practice, where the ATU is placed between the feed wire and the ground-plane (steel deck), the direct vertical installation of the feed wire may be difﬁ cult in terms of total height. This may partly be accounted for by allowing the feed wire installed at an angle of at least 45 degrees with the horizontal plane. Installing the feed wire at lower angles will create capacitance to the ground-plane in turn decreasing the efﬁ ciency of the antenna.

2.4.3 Receiver antenna

A passive type antenna is recommended as receiver antenna. The antenna should be erected well in the clear and kept away as far as possible from electrical equipment to minimize noise interference. Electrical installations such as cable braiding and instruments in the vicinity of the antenna should be grounded effectively and the instruments in question should be ﬁ tted with noise interference suppression devices effective in the frequency range 0.1 to 30 MHz. The antenna feed-in shall be by coaxial cable. It is recommended to provide the installation with an impedance matching transformer inserted at the antenna. The matching transformer grounding cable should be as short as possible and connected to ground through welded bolt. Recommended type of antenna is a 6 to 10 meter whip antenna.

Antennas

In case a passive antenna for practical reasons cannot be installed, an active antenna may be used. It is however, important to emphasize that an active antenna may decrease the receiving capabilities through reduction in received signal level and receiver dynamic range. It is of utmost importance for an active receiver antenna to work properly with the MF/HF system that it be installed as high as at all possible with unobstructed horizontal view.

Active RX antenna

Example of possible MF/HF antenna placements with an active RX antenna.

Installation of any type of receiver antenna should be completed by verifying that the

receiving capability is adequate in applicable receiving modes (SSB, DSC, Telex).

In order to avoid any unnecessary decrease in receiving capabilities an active antenna used with the SAILOR 6000B MF/HF systems should meet the following main requirements:

Electrical requirements

Operating frequency: 0.15 – 30 MHz Output impedance: 50 Ω Ω Noise ﬁ gure: below 12 dB Intermodulation: Reference signal 30 dBμV/m Intermodulation level above 80 dBμV/m

Mechanical requirements Length of the antenna element: 1.0 to 1.5m

Cobham have tested and recommends the AC Antennas KUM121 as a suitable choice.

2.7 Position and time information

2.7.1 Connection of Navigation Equipment

Navigation equipment complying with the NMEA 0183/IEC 61162-1 standard may be connected for automatic position and time updating. Connection is made to the NMEA+/NMEA- connections in the Control Unit ACC connector or the NMEA+/NMEA- connections in the Transceiver Unit AUX or SYSCON connector. The NMEA receive circuit consists of an optoisolator with a 470 ohms series resistor to insure current mode operation and a shunt diode to limit reverse bias as shown below. The circuit is isolated from ground.

NMEA IN -

NMEA IN +

The circuit operates with a minimum differential input voltage of 2 volts and draws less than 2 mA from the line at that voltage. The maximum voltage is 15 volts.

Interconnection between devices may be by means of two-conductor shielded twisted-pair cable. Multiple listeners may be connected to a single talker. The receivers are connected in parallel. The shield should be connected to the navigator chassis and should not be connected at any listener. However the shield should be continuous (unbroken) between all listeners.

Supported sentences:

GLL (longitude, lattitude, utc, status, mode)

GGA (longitide, lattitude, utc, quality )

RMC (longitude, lattitude, utc, status, mode)

The PA and Filters module includes PA drivers, PA-stage, protection circuits, bias circuits, key circuit and ﬁ ve low-pass ﬁ lters with relays and relay drivers. The PA and Filters receive the modulated RF input signal from the RX/EX Signal Path and delivers the ampliﬁ ed and ﬁ ltered output signal to the TX/RX connector via a receive/transmit relay on the Control/Intercon module. The low-pass ﬁ lters remove the unwanted harmonic frequencies from the PA signal. The Filpeak and PAprotec outputs are monitoring signals for the Control/Intercon module. The driver and ﬁ nal power ampliﬁ er stages are galvanically isolated on input and output as they are supplied directly from the 24 V DC input. The selection of low-pass ﬁ lter is controlled by the Control/Intercon module.

Should the temperature reach unsafe levels, the power for the PA will be switched off.

3.10 Antenna Tuning Unit

3.10.1 ATU module 60-122883 (150 W/250 W)

The ATU module comprises of a tuning network, measuring system and micro-controller circuits. The ATU module matches the impedance of the antenna to 50 ohm in order to gain the best possible SWR towards the TU. The TU communicates tuning process and frequency information with the ATU. The tuning network consists of capacitor bank 1, capacitor bank 2, and an inductor bank. With these banks it is possible to form either an L-network or a pi-network. The capacitor banks and inductor bank are built up by binary related capacitors and coils. The setting of capacitance and inductance is accomplished by relays. To prevent overload of the relays, current detectors are incorporated in the inductor bank and in capacitor bank 2 and information fed back to the transceiver unit to decrease the output power if maximum permissible current is exceeded. To prevent overheating a temperature sensor is incorporated which at excessive temperatures commands the transceiver to reduce the output power. In receive mode an RX-Ampliﬁ er included in the Antenna Tuning Unit is utilized, to improve the sen- sitivity of the system by providing 50 ohm impedance. This is only used when connected to a 6000A MF/HF System.

3.11 Power control and protection system

The Transceiver has an automatic power level system, which ensures that optimum power is delivered to the Antenna. The Tune Sequence, which is automatically initiated when keying the transmitter after a frequency change, makes the Tuning Network of the Antenna Tuning Unit tune to the best obtainable SWR. This is followed by an Automatic Level Control (ALC) adjustment according to the available power supply voltage, measuring the output current of the PA Filters (FILPEAK @ 10 Vp at full output), transmitting AM carrier, and setting the overall gain by the ALC voltage. It is now possible to transmit at full output power unless protection is activated or LOW POWER is selected. The output power is continuously monitored by the TU, and is automatically adjusted during transmission to provide reliable communication.

Technical description

Chapter 3: Technical description3-6 98-144591-D

3.11.1 Power Ampliﬁ er Protection

The protection of the power ampliﬁ er consists of V+I protection, SWR protection, and thermal protec- tion. When the output signal of the voltage detector at the output of the power ampliﬁ er exceeds 10 V the output power is reduced to a safe level. The thermal protection consist of a temperature sensor on the power ampliﬁ er. The available power supply voltage is measured in the DC power supply and the information is transferred to the ECM module. If the supply voltage drops the microprocessor will adjust the output power to keep distortion below the limits.

3.11.2 Antenna Tuning Unit Protection

The ATU is protected by several detectors all monitored by the ATU's microprocessor, which calculates the SWR, temperature, maximum voltage and current. If these parameters are not below safe operating limits it requests for lower power.

4.1 Preventive maintenance

Due to the modern design of the transceiver preventive maintenance can be reduced to a minimum provided the equipment is correctly installed. To ensure maximum performance and minimum repair trouble we recommend following the below stated items for preventive maintenance:

1. The condition of the GMDSS Reserve source battery/batteries should be checked at frequent intervals.

2. Check the condition of antenna installation, ground connection and cables at regular intervals. Salt deposits on insulators must be removed with fresh water to avoid ﬂ ash-over when transmitting.

3. Keep antenna feed through insulators clean.

4. Ensure that no objects are obstructing the free airﬂ ow through the cooling channels of the Transceiver Unit and keep the units free of dust accumulation to prevent overheating.

5. For cleaning use a damp cloth. Sticky dirt may be removed using a cloth with a weak soap solution. Wipe off with a clean cloth.

6. Due to aging it is necessary to calibrate the oscillator after each 3 years of operation as described in section 4.2. Calibration shall be performed by a qualiﬁ ed technician with the necessary equipment at disposal.

Calibrating the master oscillator

4.2 Calibrating the master oscillator

Calibration of the Master Oscillator is achieved by means of a PPS (Pulse Per second) signal generated by e.g. a (D)GNSS position sensor like the TT-6588A (D)GNSS Receiver.

1. The equipment ambient temperature shall be within 20° to 30° Celcius.

2. The TU must be powered up and left idle for 30 minutes prior to calibration.

3. Connect the PPS (Pulse Per second) signal from the (D)GNSS Receiver to the TU AUX-connector pins 7 (+) and 8 (-) as indicated in the AUX termination table for Cable 10, page 2-21.

To access the TU AUX connector use cable p/n S-406209-941. Should the cable need be extended

the TT-6209A Connection Box may be used as shown in below drawing.

If the TT-6288A (D)GNSS receiver is used for sourcing the PPS signal, connect a 10k pull up resistor

between the (D)GNSS Receiver positive supply input (+) and J21 Out terminal.

11.

The calibration process should result in a ﬁ nal ppm value to lie within +/-0.030 and the Service Interface indicate "Calibration OK". However, if the ﬁ nal ppm-value lies outside the +/- 0.030 limit the calibration attempt is ignored automatically and the original calibration value restored. The Service Interface will indicate "Calibration failed".

To restore correct frequency accuracy of the transceiver the Exciter Control Module should be replaced.

12. Power down the radio system, disconnect the service PC and the AUX interface cable (PPS source connection).

Cleaning the Air ﬁ lter (500 W Transceiver only)

4.3 Cleaning the Air ﬁ lter (500 W Transceiver only)

The transceiver unit uses 2 fans to cool all circuitry inside the unit. To keep the cooling air clean an air ﬁ lter is placed in front of each fan. These air ﬁ lters should be cleaned frequently, especially under dusty working conditions. A clogged air ﬁ lter will block efﬁ cient cooling and the transmitter output power will be reduced to avoid over-heating. Remove the air ﬁ lter cover from the buttom of the transceiver unit by gently pushing towards right and pulling it out from the cabinet. Take out the air ﬁ lters from the cover. Clean the air ﬁ lters reﬁ t and re- assemble the unit.
