Level and Frequency Response Check, Intercom Channel to Speaker

1Set all front panel buttons to off. Set all volume controls to minimum.

2Connect an 8 ohm load across the speaker output (J27, tip and ring)

3Connect an AC voltmeter and an oscilloscope across the speaker output.

4Connect the signal generator to intercom channel 1, and adjust the generator output to –1 dBu, 1 kHz.

5Set the SPKR ON and CH 1 TALK buttons to on.

6Rotate the CH 1-3 volume control (R1), and check that the speaker output level reaches +18 dBu (17.4 Vp-p) before clipping.

7Set the CH 1-3 volume control to get +15 dBu (4.4 VAC) at the speaker output. The volume control should be approximately at the 2 o’clock position.

8Activate speaker muting by grounding J22 pin 25 to pin 10. The speaker output level should drop to 5 mV or less, and the SPKR LED should turn off. Remove the ground connection.

9Activate speaker dim by grounding U15 pin 9.

10Adjust R157 to the maximum clockwise position. The speaker output should be –5.5dB ±1 dB below the level set in step 7.

11Adjust R157 to the maximum counter-clockwise position. The speaker output should be –39.5 dB ±2 dB below the reference level set in step 7.

12Reset R157 to the maximum clockwise position, and remove the speaker dim ground (U15 pin 9).

13Set the signal generator to –1 dBu, 100 Hz. The speaker output should be 10.8 dBu ±2 dBu.

14Set the signal generator to –1 dBu, 10 kHz. The speaker output should be 17.5 dBu ±2 dBu.

Level and Frequency Response, Program to Headphones and Speaker

Program A to Left Headphone

1Set all front panel buttons to off. Set all volume controls to minimum.

2Set program jumpers J16, J17 and J18 to assign PROGRAM A and PROGRAM B inputs to the headphones and speaker (pins 1 & 2 shorted on all three jumpers).

3Remove the signal generator from channel 1, and reconnect it to the PROGRAM A input (J14 tip and ring).

4Set the signal generator to 0 dBu, 1 kHz.

5Set the PGM VOL control to maximum.

6Measure the level at the left headphone output. It should be 1.3 dBu ±2 dBu.

7Set the signal generator to 0 dBu, 100 Hz. The left headphone output should be 0.8 dBu ±2 dBu.

8Set the signal generator to 0 dBu, 10 kHz. The left headphone output should be –3.8 dBu ±2 dBu.

9Reset the generator to 0 dBu, 1 kHz.

10Remove jumper J16 (program not assigned to left headphone). Verify that the signal level drops at least 35 dB from the reference level in step 9.
