14.3HOW TO CONFIGURE THE AUDIO OUTPUT (AUDIO MODULE SETUP)

14.3.1 SETTING THE PREEMPHASIS

The Audio Module Setup / Preemphasis menu allows You to select one of the following options:

-50uSec Internal pre-emphasis enabled on the processor audio outputs at 50 usec

-75uSec Internal pre-emphasis enabled on the processor audio outputs at 75 usec

-50uSec External pre-emphasis disabled on audio outputs (an external 50 usec preemph. must be applied)

-75uSec External pre-emphasis disabled on audio outputs (an external 75 usec preemph. must be applied) European countries use a 50 uSec preemphasis, while US countries use a 75 uSec preemphasis.

The processor generates two types of pre-emphasis: dynamic and fixed. The former may vary in relation to the modulation peak, thereby considerably increasing the average modulation within the maximum deviation of 75KHz, while the latter is fixed at 50 or 75uSec depending on the country in which it is used. The latter may be removed from the analog audio outputs if necessary, while the first is always present to ensure proper modulation at all times.

ONLY ONE PRE-EMPHASIS MUST BE KEPT ACTIVE IN A TRANSMITTING CHAIN.

IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO USE THE PRE-EMPHASIS WITHIN THE PROCESSOR AND TURN OFF THE ONE GENERATED BY EXTERNAL TX OR MPX CODERS.

NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PREEMPHASIS SET TO THE APPROPRIATE VALUE FOR YOUR APPLICATION BEFORE CALIBRATION AS THIS WILL AFFECT THE OUTPUT LEVEL
