Calibration Procedure for the BBE 482 (REV/S/ON 1.1)

NOTE: THIS UNIT WAS TESTED AND CALIBRATED AT THE FACTORY. THIS PROCEDURE IS FOR QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.

INITIAL SETTINGS:

1.BBE Process controls VR1 and VR3 to minimum.(C.C.W.)

2.Lo Contour controls VR2 and VR4 to minimum.(C.C.W.)

3.Power switch “ON” and BBE function switch “IN”.

POWER SUPPLY TEST:

1.With DVM set to DC volts, measure the positive end of C27. You should read less than +30vdc.

2.With DVM set to DC volts, measure the negative end of C29. You should read less than -30vdc.

3.With DVM set to DC volts, measure the voltage on JMP5. Reading should be +15vdc, (+/-0.5vdc).

4.With DVM set to DC volts, measure the voltage on JMP4. Reading should be -15vdc, (+/-0.5vdc).

BBE PROCESS TEST:

1.Input a 5khz signal @ -l0dBu into channel A [B] input.

2.With DVM set to AC volts, measure the channel A [B] output.

3.With Process control at minimum (C.C.W.) DVM should read -11.5dBu (+/-1dBu).

4.With Process control at maximum (C.W.) DVM should read +2dBu (+/-1dBu).

LO CONTOUR TEST:

1.Input a 50hz signal @ -l0dBu into channel A [B] input.

2.With DVM set to AC volts, measure the channel A [B] output.

3.With Lo Contour control at minimum (C.C.W.) DVM should read -11dBu (+/-1dBu).

4.With Lo Contour control at maximum (C.W.) DVM should read +3dBu (+/-1dBu).

BYPASS TEST:

1.Input a 500hz signal @ -l0dBu into channel A [B] input.

2.With DVM set to AC volts, measure the channel A [B] output.

3.With the process “IN”, DVM should read -9dBu (+/-1dBu) and the Process “IN” LED should be on.

4.With the Process “OUT”, DVM should read -11dBu (+/-1dBu) and the Process “OUT” LED should be on.

LED TEST:

1.Input a 5khz signal @ -20dBu into the channel A [B] input. The yellow -20 LED should light.

2.Change input level to -l0dBu. The yellow -12dBu LED should light.

3.Change input level to -5dBu. The green -6dBu LED should light.

4.Change input level to 0dBu. The green 0 LED should light.

5.Change input level to +18dBu. The red clip LED should light.

END TEST.
