Safety instructions
The transmitter must be installed in accordance with IEC 60728-11 and national safety standards.
The transmitter is powered from a 12 V power supply unit. This voltage is not dangerous to life.
The power supply unit must have a short circuit protection.
Any repairs must be made by a qualied personnel.
Do not connect the 12 V power supply unit into the mains socket until all cables of transmitter have been correctly connected. The mains socket must
be easily accessible.
Disconnect the transmitter power supply by removing the power supply cable from the mains socket.
Do not expose this transmitter to moisture or water splashes, make sure no liquid lled objects, e.g. vases, are placed near or on the unit.
Avoid placing the transmitter near heat sources, e.g. central heating components or in areas of high humidity.
Keep the transmitter away from naked ames.
If the transmitter has been stored in cold conditions for a long time, bringing it into a warm environment may cause condensation. In such cases let it
warm up for at least 2 hours before plugging it into the mains.
To ensure proper ventilation do not block the ventilation openings
IMPORTANT: Mounting of the transmitter is allowed vertical only and the free ow of air through the unit must be not restricted. If the transmitter is
installed in a 19” rack system additional forced air cooling fans may be required (see Table 7 - Operating temperature range). Always leave 10 cm of free
space from the top, front and bottom of the unit to allow heat dissipation.
Safety of laser product
Optical Transmitter module contains laser diode sources operating at 1310/1550 nm. These devices are rated under IEC60825-1:2007 “Safety of Laser
Products”, Part 1: Equipment classication and requirements as CLASS 1M laser product.
When operating the equipment note the following:
Most ber optic laser wavelengths (1310 nm and 1550 nm) are totally invisible to the eye and will cause permanent eye damage.
Never look into the end of a ber on a powered device through a magnifying device (microscope, eye loupe, magnifying glass, etc.). Before using such
devices always double check that power is disconnected or, if possible, completely disconnect the unit from any power source.
To verify the light output always use an instrument, such as an optical power meter.
Operate only with the proper optical ber installed in the transmitter optical connector.
Whenever the optical connector is empty the laser transmitter should be turned off.
Before applying power always connect a ber to the output of the device.
Never leave equipment with radiating bare bers accessible - always cap the connectors
Cleaning of optical connectors
The ber ends may be damaged if contaminated connectors are inserted. The warranty does not cover some types of damage, made by the customer.
The standard optical connector for optical transmitter is SC/APC.
During the operation each ber connector may be contaminated by dust or dir. Even tiny particles of dust will affect the transmission quality. Dusty ber
optic connector will contaminate other connected optic parts. If optical reception power and output level of the receiver decrease, active ber connection
should be cleaned and maintained.
Always clean all the ber optic connectors before setting.
Reel cleaners or prepackaged lint free wipes or swabs with alcohol are the most convenient means of cleaning optical connectors.
Fiber connectors should never be left uncovered.
Do not exceed the minimum bending radius when connecting cable to the system.

Figure 11. Transmitter control page
Detailed description of control page:
• Laser
Laser diode can be switched On or Off.
ON: laser diode switched on.
OF: laser diode switched off.
• Load power
The transmitter has a built-in RF power meter, which monitors the total power in the RF test point. This value directly relates to the laser optical modulation
index (OMI). It depends on input signals values and number of channels and can be changed by the attenuator.
If RF output power is less than -20 dBm, web server generates error message “Low RF level”, if it is more than -5 dBm, then the message” High RF
level” is displayed.
Note: measurement of RF output level has not instrument accuracy, it indicates the approximate output level power and output level variation.
6
• Optimal power
It is xed power, dened by factory measurement for CENELEC 42 channels signals and intermodulation distortion level, according technical specication.
• Attenuator
RF attenuator can be adjusted 0...15 dB with 0.5 dB step.
• Equalizer
RF equalizer level can be adjusted in the range of 0..10 dB, step 0.5 dB
Note: Attenuator and Equalizer values may be changed step by step using Up/Down buttons at right side of parameter window or entered directly
from keyboard. Take in mind that some browsers (e.g. IE) don’t support Up/Down control element. In this case the appropriate value should be entered
from keyboard.
• Gain control
The transmitter can be operated in non-AGC (“Manual”) as well as two different AGC modes (“Auto” or “Auto Optimal”).
“Manual” – AGC is switched off.
“Auto” - Is used to set automatic RF level control for constant load to the laser.
The operating AGC level is set by the user when the button “Apply settings” is pressed. After that, RF level instability is compensated automatically by
the internal attenuator. If attenuator can’t compensate RF level drift, diagnostic error message “AGC out of range” is displayed.
Auto Optimal - The operating AGC level is equated to optimal power, dened by factory measurement.
Note: Auto (Auto Optimal) AGC mode should be changed through the “Manual” mode.
• Freq Band
Bandwidth can be selected 47-862 MHz or 47-1002 MHz.

SNMP and the Management Information Base
A Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information Base (MIB) is a hierarchically organized collection of information. MIB’s
consists of managed objects that are identied by object identiers (OIDs). Some attributes in the MIB are xed while others are dynamic values calculated
by the agent software running on the device.
Ethernet SNMP agent operates together with optical transmitter and provides remote diagnostics and control of the transmitter via Ethernet type network
using SNMP protocol.
The agent of transmitter can receive SNMP requests from a number of SNMP managers and can send traps to dedicated trap receiver.
The SNMP agent generates all alarms and events as SNMP traps (notications) if parameters of the transmitter exceed limits and/or abnormal situations
occur. These traps will be sent to trap manager, identied by host IP address. The SNMP agent generates traps containing an object ID (OID) that uniquely
identies the alarm. The traps also contain a date/time stamp that shows the date and time of the alarm.
The a network management system (NMS) can be implemented to enable a more sophisticated alarm management with alarm ltering, alarm
acknowledgement and automatic messaging through Emails or SMS etc.
The table 2 shows the notication type and the MIB object for each event notication.

Installation example
There is a recommended installation example when it is necessary to ensure a high reliability of optical system. For this purpose a power supply UP412
is recommended, as it is designed for operation in parallel connection to ensure the back-up function.
The server of transmitter has an additional useful feature to receive data from up to two UP412 power supplies. In this case the server of optical transmitter
works as a network element controller, which polls equipment that is connected to the data bus.
Therefore, the web browser allows supervising and controlling the function of the transmitter and power supply UP412.
Note:
1. The server can manage only up to two UP412 devices.
2. Please pay attention to the different power supply settings. Address of power suppliers does not have to match and will be as follows:
Table 6. Address settings of power supply
Supply Group address Module address
No 111
No 212
In order to enable the communication of an UP412 power supply with a device server of optical transmitter, the data bus connector of the UP412 has
to be connected to the data bus connector of the transmitter (Figure 1, pos 7), as shown in the diagram below. The data and power distribution cables are
supplied together with the optical transmitter.
