Internal System Alignment Routine
This process uses a programmed routine in the transceiv-
er which simplifies many previously complex discrete
component settings and adjustments with digitally-con-
trolled settings via front panel keys and LCD indications.
Set the transceiver to the 430MHz band, then turn the
Set the transceiver to the 430MHz band, then turn the
transceiver off. Now, press and hold in the [F/W], [MD],
and [ ] keys (at the same time) while powering the radio
on again. The display will show the first setting. Thereaf-
ter, the frequencies used during alignment will automat-
ically be set without further action by the technician.
In the alignment process, each adjustment is selected by
In the alignment process, each adjustment is selected by
rotating the DIAL knob. Alignment is performed by:
¦
Pressing the [V/M] key;
¦
Injecting a signal of the required frequency and level;
then
¦
Pressing the [V/M] key after a level setting or adjust-
ment is made. This second pressing of the [V/M] key
stores the alignment data at the desired value.
To exit the alignment routine, press the [HM/RV] key. Af-
ter performing the system alignment in its entirety, indi-
vidual settings can be returned to and adjusted should
the need arise.
