3.2Adjustment of Transceiver Unit

Selecting audio frequency

Select audio frequency of 1000 Hz or 900 Hz by jumper connector JP2 on pcb 06P0192 in the transceiver unit. The default setting is 1000 Hz. Refer to Figure 3-1 for the location of JP2.

Signal offset adjustment

When noise appears on the screen, adjust R61 (offset) on pcb 06P0192. Turning R61 clockwise slices off low level signals in a similar way to the CLUTTER con- trol on the display unit. (While the CLUTTER control on the display unit elimi- nates low level signals without changing signal level of strong signals, R61 shifts signal level of all signals.) When the offset adjustment is necessary, set R61 fully counterclockwise. Refer to Figure 3-1 for the location of R61.
