power (P in watts), and compare with the actual power measurement on the power meter. Because the table does not contain all values of V and P, you may need to interpolate to get the values you need.

7.Turn the calibration screw (clockwise if the measured power is lower than the power from the table) and repeat steps 6 and 7 until the measured power is the same as the power from the table.

8.Turn off the 12V station power supply for the transmitter.

9.Disconnect the DC voltmeter from the phono connector on the power sensor, and re-connect the power sensor cable in its place.

10.Remove the wattmeter from between the power sensor and the coax to the combiner, and re-connect the coax to the power sensor.

11.Turn on the 12V station power supply for the transmitter.

12.Repeat steps 1 through 11 for the next transmitter until each transmitter has had its power sensor calibrated.

Bi-directional Power Sensors

Use the following procedure to calibrate the bi- directional power sensors used at the output of each combiner. Start with the combiner that feeds antenna #1. The locations of the calibration screws are shown in Figure 21.

1.Disconnect the coax (from the power sensor to the antenna) at the power sensor end, and insert an in-line wattmeter set to measure forward power (make sure the wattmeter is rated high enough to handle the power from all the transmitters feeding the combiner).

2.Disconnect the power sensor cable from the phono connector for the forward power on the power sensor, and attach the DC voltmeter in its place (center pin is

positive). (An alternate method is to disconnect the power sensor cable at the PMU - see interconnection diagram at end of manual - and attach the DC voltmeter to the end of the cable.)

3.Manually key the transmitter using the switch marked “REM KEY”, or press and hold the PTT switch on a hand-held microphone plugged into the transmitter.

4.Measure the DC voltage on the meter, look up this voltage in Table 6 (V in volts) to get the equivalent power calculation (P in watts), and compare with the actual power measurement on the power meter.

5.Turn the calibration screw (clockwise if the measured power is lower than the power from the table) and repeat steps 4 and 5 until the measured power is the same as the power from the table.

6.Disconnect the DC voltmeter from the phono connector on the power sensor, and re-connect the power sensor cable in its place.

7.Set the in-line wattmeter to measure reflected power.

8.Disconnect the power sensor cable from the phono connector for the forward power on the power sensor, and attach the DC voltmeter in its place (center pin is positive).

9.Manually key the transmitter using the switch marked “REM KEY”, or press and hold the PTT switch on a hand-held microphone plugged into the transmitter.

10.Measure the DC voltage on the meter, look up this voltage in Table 6 (V in volts) to get the equivalent power calculation (P in watts), and compare with the actual power measurement on the power meter.

11.Turn the calibration screw (clockwise if the measured power is lower than the power from the table) and repeat steps 10 and 11 until the measured power is the same as the power from the table.

12.Disconnect the DC voltmeter from the phono connector on the power sensor, and re-connect the power sensor cable in its place.

13.Remove the wattmeter from between the power sensor and the coax to the combiner, and re-connect the coax to the power sensor.

14.Repeat steps 1 through 13 for the other combiner (if two transmit antennas are used).
