Guide to Using Harris Parts List InformationThe Harris Replaceable Parts List Index portrays a tree structure with the major items being leftmost in the index. The example below shows the Transmitter as the highest item in the tree structure. If you were to look at the bill of materials table for the Transmitter you would find the Control Cabinet, the PA Cabinet, and the Output Cabinet. In the Replaceable Parts List Index the Control Cabinet, PA Cabinet, and Output Cabinet show up one indentation level below the Transmitter and implies that they are used in the Transmitter. The Controller Board is indented one level below the Control Cabinet so it will show up in the bill of material for the Control Cabinet. The tree structure of this same index is shown to the right of the table and shows indentation level versus tree structure level.

Example of Replaceable Parts List Index and equivalent tree structure:

Replaceable Parts List Index Part Number Page

Table 7-1. Transmitter 994 9283 001 7-2Table 7-2. Control Cabinet 992 9244 002 7-3Table 7-3. Controller Board 992 8344 002 7-6Table 7-4. PA Cabinet 992 9400 002 7-7Table 7-5. PA Amplifier 994 7894 002 7-9Table 7-6. PA Amplifier Board 992 7904 002 7-10Table 7-7. Output Cabinet 992 9450 001 7-12

The part number of the item is shown to the right of the description as is the page in the manual where the bill for that part number starts. Inside the actual tables, four main headings are used:

• Table #-#. ITEM NAME - HARRIS PART NUMBER - this line gives the information that corresponds to the

• Replaceable Parts List Index entry;

• HARRIS P/N column gives the ten digit Harris part number (usually in ascending order);

• DESCRIPTION column gives a 25 character or less description of the part number;

• REF. SYMBOLS/EXPLANATIONS column 1) gives the reference designators for the item (i.e., C001, R102, etc.) that corresponds to the number found in the schematics (C001 in a bill of material is equiva-lent to C1 on the schematic) or 2) gives added information or further explanation (i.e., “Used for 208V operation only,” or “Used for HT 10LS only,” etc.).

Inside the individual tables some standard conventions are used:

• A # symbol in front of a component such as #C001 under the REF. SYMBOLS/EXPLANATIONS col-umn means that this item is used on or with C001 and is not the actual part number for C001.

• In the ten digit part numbers, if the last three numbers are 000, the item is a part that Harris has pur-chased and has not manufactured or modified. If the last three numbers are other than 000, the item is either manufactured by Harris or is purchased from a vendor and modified for use in the Harris product.

• The first three digits of the ten digit part number tell which family the part number belongs to - for example, all electrolytic (can) capacitors will be in the same family (524 xxxx 000). If an electrolytic (can) capacitor is found to have a 9xx xxxx xxx part number (a number outside of the normal family of numbers), it has probably been modified in some manner at the Harris factory and will therefore show up farther down into the individual parts list (because each table is normally sorted in ascending order). Most Harris made or modified assemblies will have 9xx xxxx xxx numbers associated with them.

The term “SEE HIGHER LEVEL BILL” in the description column implies that the reference designated part number will show up in a bill that is higher in the tree structure. This is often the case for components that may be frequency determinant or voltage determinant and are called out in a higher level bill structure that is more customer dependent than the bill at a lower level.

Section 1 Introduction ATLAS ISDB-T

1.2.4 Transmitter Control System

The transmitter uses a distributed architecture control system. This means that each transmitter sub-system is responsible for its own monitoring and protection and simply reports back to the Main Controller for display on the GUI (Graphical User Interface) or to a remote interface. The heart of the system is the 376 Micro Module which is used in all of the transmitter systems for control, monitoring and protection. The Micro Module is used on each of the following controllers and sub-systems:

a. Main Controller Board - This board is responsible for transmitter control and monitoring. However, with the distributed control architecture, it is not directly responsible for protection of the individual transmitter components. It merely gathers all status and fault data from the individual sub-systems and reports that information to the operator. The Main Controller is responsible for system level control (issues which effect multiple systems) since it is the only part of the con-trol system which can monitor the entire transmitter.

b. Module Controllers (1 in each module) - Responsible for protection and control of the PA Module. Report directly to the Main Controller Board.

c. Power Block Controller Board - Responsible for control and monitoring of the power supplies and distribution of the low voltage. Also responsible for monitor-ing the cooling system, including temperature, flow and leaks. Monitors tempera-ture of combiner reject loads. Reports directly to the Main Controller.

d. External I/O Board - Provides all customer interface connections including paral-lel remote control and serial remote control. Reports directly to the Main Control-ler.

e. RFU - Interfaces with the controller to monitor and select exciter inputs, provide cabinet VSWR protection, and monitor output power

1.2.4.1 Graphical User Interface

The front panel user interface is a 1/4 VGA, LCD touchscreen display. The touchscreen display uses software buttons to monitor the transmitter. Hardware buttons for the primary transmitter functions such as ON, OFF, RAISE and LOWER are provided on the overlay panel next to the display.

Section 1 IntroductionATLAS ISDB-T

Figure 1-6 Front Control Panel

1.2.4.2 Control System Communications

The control system uses a serial communications system called a CAN bus. CAN stands for Controller Area Network. The CAN bus is a closed loop serial network operated by the Main Controller Board. Each circuit board and module connected to the CAN bus is considered a node and therefore has a specific address. This allows the Main Controller to gather information from all parts of the transmitter and display it on the GUI. One big advantage of the CAN bus is that it requires only 2 wires of the system control ribbon cable, eliminating a large amount of discrete wiring which would otherwise be required.

For redundancy, the CAN bus is backed up by parallel hardwired control lines that allow the transmitter to stay on the air even if the CAN bus fails. The parallel control lines also provide the instantaneous OFF and RF MUTE commands necessary for transmitter protection.

1.2.4.3 In-System Programming or ISP

The use of the CAN bus for communication between the various Micro Modules in the transmitter also allows for easy updating of the software used in each transmitter sub-system via a serial port connection to an external computer. This is referred to as In-System Programming or ISP.

NOTE:Software does not need to be loaded into the transmitter unless new components are installed or an update is sent from Harris. The transmitter, as shipped from the factory, is preloaded and ready to run.

All software can also be upgraded remotely via the web network interface: eCDi.

Page 24: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 1 Introduction ATLAS ISDB-T

1.2.4.4 Remote Control

The Atlas ISDB-T transmitter has the basic discrete wired parallel remote control with the standard connections for control, status and analog monitoring.

eCDi™ is an optional Transmitter Network Interface appliance that provides comprehensive remote control and monitoring of every data point within the transmitter. It includes an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) manager which allows integration with most Control Systems via the Internet or LAN.

1.2.5 PA Module

The Atlas ISDB-T PA Module utilizes LDMOS (laterally diffused metal oxide semi-conductor) amplifiers to produce up to 465W average power output. Each module weighs approximately 23.6kg and can be removed while the transmitter is running. A single cabinet Atlas ISDB-T transmitter can have 2, 4, 6, or 8 PA modules to achieve the various power levels shown in Table 1-1. A block diagram of the PA module is shown in Figure 1-7.

Each PA module consists of the following components:

a. PA Module Controller Board - Responsible for all monitoring and protection of the module. Reports to the transmitter Main Controller via the CAN bus but is also connected to the parallel control lines in case the CAN bus is not operational.

b. Phase and Gain Board - Provides for module phase and gain adjustments to mini-mize module combiner reject power. Also provides for cabinet phasing in multi- cabinet transmitters to minimize cabinet combiner reject power.

c. Pre-driver Pallet - Provides enough power to drive the 2 way splitter and the 2 driver pallets.

d. Two (2) LDMOS Driver Pallets - Provide enough power to drive the 4 way split-ters and the inputs to the power amplifier pallets.

e. Pallet Splitter and Combiner - Actually two 4-way splitters and one 8-way com-biner.

f. Eight (8) LDMOS Amplifier Pallets - When combined, they provide up to 465 watts of average power at the output of the module.

g. Liquid Cooled Cold Plate - Mounted directly to the 8 LDMOS power amplifier pallets and power supplies for cooling.

h. RF Output Directional Coupler - Samples both Forward and Reflected power for metering, module automatic level control (ALC) and module VSWR protection.

Section 1 IntroductionATLAS ISDB-T

i. Integrated Power Supply.

Each Atlas ISDB-T PA Module is a self-contained 465W amplifier including the power supply with its own internal control, monitoring and protection. The modules only receive basic On/Off, Mute, Restart, Phase and Gain commands from the transmitter control system. This means that each module will protect itself without relying on the system controller.

Page 26: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 1 Introduction ATLAS ISDB-T

1.2.5.1 Module Control

The primary method for control and monitoring of the PA Modules is by the serial CAN (Controller Area Network) Bus. It is used for control, status and monitoring of all PA Module parameters and for the reporting of Module faults. As a backup to this serial control network, each PA Module has dedicated hardware control lines for functions such as On, Off, Restart and RF Mute.

Page 27: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 1 IntroductionATLAS ISDB-T

1.2.6 Transmitter Power Supplies

The control system in the transmitter is powered by two low voltage power supplies (LVPS).

An autotransformer provides 260VAC to each PA module’s integrated power supply. There it is rectified to 350VDC then applied to an array of DC/DC converters. Depending on the channel frequency, the DC/DC converter’s output is approximately 28Vdc - 32Vdc (30V typical) drain voltage.

1.2.7 Cooling System

The Atlas ISDB-T transmitter uses a 50/50 water/glycol liquid cooling system to remove the majority of the heat away from the transmitter but also has cabinet flushing fans to remove residual cabinet heat. A simplified block diagram of the liquid cooling system is shown in Figure 1-9. A simplified diagram of the liquid cooling system inside the transmitter cabinet is shown in Figure 1-10. The cooling system basically consists of:

a. Cooling System Control Panel

b. Pump Module

c. Heat Exchanger

d. Transmitter Cold Plates

1.2.7.1 Cooling System Control Panel

The cooling system control panel controls the pump module and the heat exchanger and is the interface to the transmitter control system. The cooling system control panel is connected to the External I/O board in the Atlas Transmitter for monitoring and control. It also supplies AC power to the pump module and interfaces the fault and status information from these units to the transmitter.

The cooling system control panel, shown in Figure 1-8 below, has local controls on the front which allow manual selection of pump A or optional pump B and selection of Remote/Local control. It also has the following status indicators:

* These status indications are also sent to the transmitter for display on the GUI and via remote control.

When in Remote mode, the transmitter is responsible for control of the cooling system, including ON/OFF, manual pump selection and automatic pump switching in the case of a failure. Placing the control panel in Local mode allows manual switching of the pumps using the pump select buttons on the cooling control panel.

The lower half of the control panel contains the AC isolation switch which disconnects AC power from the pump module as well as the control circuitry in the control panel itself. The pump control panel is typically mounted on the pump module assembly and normally installed within eyesight of the transmitter (usually next to the transmitter disconnect panel).

1.2.7.2 Pump Module

The pump module is a self-contained unit with a storage tank, pressure and temperature gauges, a strainer filter and optional dual pumps operating in main/standby mode. The pump module is designed for indoor mounting.

Page 29: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 1 IntroductionATLAS ISDB-T

Figure 1-9 Simplified Liquid Cooling System Block Diagram

1.2.7.3 Heat Exchanger

The heat exchanger, which is typically installed outside, has 2 or 3 fans depending on transmitter model. The fans are enabled whenever the pump module is activated, but temperature sensors determine when the fans will actually start. The first fan is factory set to turn on when the coolant temperature reaches 32oC with the second one turning on at 38oC; these settings are adjustable.

1.2.7.4 Transmitter PA Module and Combiner Cold Plates

Each PA Module has an attached liquid cooled cold plate which connects to the cooling system with flexible hoses and quick release connectors. There are also cold plates inside the combiner to which all of the internal combiner reject loads are attached. See Figure 1-10 for cabinet coolant routing.

1.2.8 Apex ISDB-T Exciter

The Apex ISDB-T exciter is used with the Atlas ISDB-T transmitter. This exciter is described in a separate instruction book. A second hot standby exciter, and drive chain switcher is available as an option. The Apex exciter communicates with the main controller via the CAN bus (Controller Area Network). Configuration editing, diagnostics and monitoring is possible using the 1/4 VGA graphical user interface (GUI) display or, via RS-232 or Ethernet ports provided with the exciter. The Ethernet ports on the exciters connect to the eCDi unit as shown in the cabinet wiring diagram.

2.3 Installation Checkboxes

Located to the left of each important step in the installation procedure is a checkbox like the one to the left of this paragraph. As each step in the procedure is completed, the box should be checked. This provides a quick confidence check at the end of the procedure that no steps were skipped. The primary goal of each step is indicated by bold letters, with the rest of the paragraph being support information toward that goal.

NOTE:In case of discrepancy between the connections listed in the schematics versus the information given in this installation section, the wiring information in the sche-matics should be considered the most accurate. All connections listed in this sec-tion should be verified with the schematics before initial turn on.

2.4 Transmitter Cabinet Placement

The transmitter cabinet(s) should be placed where it(they) will have approximately 1 meter clearance in the back. The front of the transmitter should have a clearance of at least 1.5 meters to allow access for removal and installation of the PA modules. There are several drawings included in the drawing package to help plan the cabinet placement:

• Outline Drawing

• RF Equipment Layout

• Liquid Cooling System Layout

Remove the bolts or straps holding the transmitter to the wooden pallet and carefully slide the cabinet off the pallet.

Remove the rear door and set it aside in a safe place for the rest of the installation process.

MULTI-CABINET MODELS:

Place cabinets in position and carefully align.

Attach joining brackets.

2.5.2 Continue Cooling System Installation

Connect the control and status wires between the cooling control panel and the transmitter with the supplied multi-conductor cable. These low level signals connect from terminals X3-1 through X3-12 in the cooling control panel to J12-1 through J12-12 on the External I/O board in the transmitter (pin for pin connection).

Figure 2-3 External I/O Board Cooling Connections: J12 & J18

Connect the test load flow switch to J18-9 and J18-10 on the External I/O board in the transmitter (see the next step for air cooled applications).This will mute the transmitter RF output if there is no coolant flow through the test load (provided the Patch Panel is in position 2, transmitter to test load). Specified wire is 7-2-4C, 4 conductor cable. A closed contact is required to operate the transmitter. Some switches may also use +15V and ground. The connections are as follows:

• J18-9 to flow switch terminal 1 (common)

• J18-10 to flow switch terminal 3 (N.O.)

Depending on the switch the following may also be required:

• J11-1 (+15Vdc) to flow switch terminal 2 (+DC)

If there is a temperature overload switch on the water cooled test load, it can be connected to J18-11 and J18-12. This open interlock contact will mute the transmitter RF output if the test load temperature threshold is exceeded (while the transmitter is operating into the test load). A jumper is installed at the factory which must be removed to use this input. J18-9 and J18-10 must be jumpered if they are not used.

In instances where an air-cooled test load with an over-temp switch is used, connect the two leads to J18-9 (common) & J18-10 (N.C.) and jumper pins J18-11 & J18-12 if not used.

NOTE:Patch Panel status signals will tell the Main Controller to ignore this interlock if the transmitter output is currently routed into the antenna.

Section 2 Installation / Initial Turn-On ATLAS ISDB-T

2.6 Transmitter AC Connection

For conduit connections to the transmitter refer to the Outline Drawing Top View.

MULTI-CABINET NOTE:AC Connections will be similar across all cabinets in multi-cabinet transmitter models. Be sure to verify all connections using the correct schematic drawings.

! WARNING:DISABLE AND LOCK OUT STATION PRIMARY POWER BEFORE PRIMARY POWER CABLES ARE CONNECTED TO THE EQUIPMENT.

NOTE:The Atlas transmitter uses a 3-phase autotransformer. No neutral connection is required in the cabinet. DO NOT run a neutral connection to the transmitter as there is no connection point and the neutral should not be connected to the cabinet ground. A safety ground wire is required and connects to E2 which is shown in Figure 2-4 on page 2-13.

The Atlas ISDB-T transmitters are 3 phase 208/220/240Vac or 3 phase 380/400/415Vac at 50/60Hz delta or wye. If voltage variations in excess of ±10% are anticipated, the transmitter power input must be equipped with automatic voltage regulators (optional equipment) capable of correcting the mains voltage.

NOTE:It is important that the correct voltage and configuration be specified as the MOV protection components are different for delta or wye configurations.

Connect the Primary AC conduit to the top of the transmitter cabinet.The top of the transmitter cabinet has pre-cut holes for conduit connections as shown in the Outline Drawing.

NOTE:For the following two steps it may be helpful to remove the top access cover of the transmitter.

Connect the AC wires to the primary AC terminal block TB5.The AC input wires will connect to TB5 located beneath an access plate on top of the cabinet (on the ceiling of the transmitter see Figure 2-4, below). It will be necessary to

Section 2 Installation / Initial Turn-OnATLAS ISDB-T

use a screw driver to insert-and-pry open the terminal block clamp in order to insert the cable. Release the clamp to secure the cable firmly in place.

Connect the safety ground wire to TB5. Connect AC safety ground to smaller terminal located nearest to sidewall.

Figure 2-4 AC Connections to Terminal Block TB5

Verify that the Primary AC line voltage is correct for the installed MOV board. Measure the primary AC line voltage from phase to phase and write it in the blank below. The transmitter was setup in the factory with a 208/220/240 or 380/400/415Vac Delta or WYE 3 phase configured MOV board. Make sure that the transmitter is set up for the same power configuration used at the site by checking the factory test data sheet.

VAC

NOTE:There must be less than a 10% imbalance between any one phase and the average of all three phases to allow the transmitter to operate, however the phase imbal-ance must be 5% or less to meet transmitter specifications.

Page 46: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 2 Installation / Initial Turn-On ATLAS ISDB-T

2.7 Signal and Ground Connections

NOTE:Control and signal wires should never be run in the same conduit with any AC wiring. A separate conduit should be used for control and signal cables.

Connect the ASI inputs, external reference, and sample cables from the Forward and Reflected directional couplers - including the RTAC sample coupler - at the system output (after the filter). These samples connect to a small I/O panel mounted to the ceiling of the cabinet. If necessary, these samples will be calibrated using the GUI after initial turn-on (see "5.5 Power Calibrations" on page 5-9). These cables are not pre-assembled since the required length is determined at each site.

Connect a ground strap from each cabinet’s E1 ground block to the station ground. A roll of copper strapping is shipped with the transmitter already attached to E1. Roll this strap out and attach to station ground. If any additional copper strap is needed, it must be at least 5cm wide and 0.5mm thick.

2.8 Intercabinet Connections

For multi-cabinet transmitter models DVI5000, DVI6800, DVI7500, and DVI9000, the inter cabinet connections will need to be installed next. See the appropriate System Interconnect Wiring Diagram for reference.

2.9 External Interlock Connections

2.9.1 Fault-Off External Interlocks (J18)

The transmitter has inputs for up to four external Fault-Off interlocks on the External I/O Board. More interlocks may be incorporated by placing 2 or more interlocks in series. The transmitter is shipped from the factory with jumpers in the External Interlock posi-tions which will allow the transmitter to operate with no external interlock connections. The System Interconnect drawing shows that Interlock #1, J18-1 to J18-2, is used by the 3 Port Patch Panel or possibly a motorized switch. The other three are to be used at the customer’s discretion. The External Interlock circuit requires a closed connection on the following External I/O Board terminals to allow the transmitter to turn on:

• J18 pins 1-2 (connected to Output Patch Panel or switch interlocks)

• J18 pins 3-4

2-14 888-2684-001 2/24/09 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 47: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 2 Installation / Initial Turn-OnATLAS ISDB-T

• J18 pins 5-6

• J18 pins 7-8

NOTE:Fault-Off interlocks will shut the transmitter off if opened and are provided for use in protection of personnel.

2.9.2 RF Mute External Interlock Connections (J18)

There are 2 additional interlock connections that can be used to apply a temporary RF Mute condition (vs. a Fault OFF condition as discussed above). The transmitter will RF mute when the interlock is open and automatically unmute when the interlock is restored to a close condition. These are:

• J18-9 to J18-10 (for test load flow, or test load thermal interlock)

• J18-11 to J18-12 (for test load flow, or test load thermal interlock)

! WARNING:RF MUTE INTERLOCKS SHOULD NOT TO BE USED IN ANY SITUATION WHERE PROTECTION OF PERSONNEL IS AN ISSUE.

The two RF Mute interlocks associated with J18 (described above) are only active when the transmitter is in the Test Load mode. They are not active when the transmitter is in the Antenna mode. When the transmitter is in the Antenna mode (normal mode), this logic allows the RF test load flow to be turned off without causing an RF mute condition in the transmitter.

While these RF mute interlocks can be used for any purpose where it is desired to mute the RF temporarily, their primary purpose is for use on a flow switch in a water cooled resistive load.

When the transmitter is first turned on there is little or no coolant flow and if a flow switch is interlocked to the Fault OFF interlock (J18, 1-8), the transmitter cannot be turned on. However, by connecting the flow switch to an RF Mute interlock, only the RF output is held off until the coolant flow is present.

The transmitter is shipped from the factory with jumpers in the RF Mute interlock posi-tions on J18 which will allow the transmitter to operate without external interlock con-nected.

2/24/09 888-2684-001 2-15 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 48: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 2 Installation / Initial Turn-On ATLAS ISDB-T

2.9.3 RF Mute External Interlock Connections (J11)

Another interlock connection on J11 can be used to apply an RF Mute:

• J11-10 to J11-12 (for water cooled reject load flow, or air cooled reject load thermal protection, in multi-cabinet systems)

! WARNING:NOT TO BE USED IN ANY SITUATION WHERE PROTECTION OF PERSONNEL IS REQUIRED.

The difference between the J11 interlock and the J18 RF Mute interlock is that the J11 interlock is always active – regardless of Load or Antenna mode.

As shown in the Electrical Installation drawing the J11-10 to J11-12 RF Mute interlock should be connected to the reject load flow switch in multi cabinet applications. The RF Mute interlock could also be used for an RF switch changeover or a dummy load ther-mal interlock.

The transmitter is shipped from the factory with a jumper in the RF Mute interlock positions on J11 which will allow the transmitter to operate without an external interlock connected.

2.10 Patch Panel Connections

Refer to the Electrical Installation drawing for Patch Panel connections:

! CAUTION:ALWAYS SHUT THE TRANSMITTER OFF BEFORE REMOVING THE PATCH PANEL TO PREVENT POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE CONTACTS.

IMPORTANT: This note only applies to systems without a patch panel or RF switch.

If no patch panel or switch is to be installed in the transmitter RF output line, then a jumper must be placed on the External I/O board from J14-3 (RF_SW_A_STAT) to J14-1 (ground).

2.11 Initial Cooling System Turn ON

NOTE:For further Cooling System start up information see the pump module and heat exchanger manufacturer technical manuals and Appendix B Cooling System Help section.

Verify trip levels for the Pump Module pumps inside the Cooling Control Panel. If necessary, rotate the contactor trip level threshold to match the full load current (FLC) of the corresponding pump or fan motor. The pump load current is given on a metal plate affixed to each motor. See Table 2-3 on page 2-18 for reference.

The contactor switching mode is set to the desired position. Manual position will allow pump contactor to reset on pump failure only when the blue button is pushed by the operator. Automatic will allow a reset to occur a few seconds after an overload without operator action. The recommended mode is MANUAL

Verify contactor trip is set to Manual. If necessary, rotate the trip control to Man for manual reset in the event of a trip.

Table 2-3 Typical Pump Trip Level Settings

NOTE:Table 2-3 provides typical reference values only. Values given are for a single pump module. Check the pump motor labels to verify the actual Full Load Cur-rent (FLC) ratings for each setting.

Energize the AC mains supply to the Cooling Control Panel.

Turn ON the AC mains disconnect (isolator) switch on the Pump Module Cooling Control Panel. This will supply AC power to the Pump Module. AC power is supplied to the heat exchanger via a separate mains supply line, fuses and disconnect switch as shown in the cooling system wiring diagram.

Press the Local button on the Cooling Control Panel (LED should illuminate). There are two operational modes for the cooling pumps: Local and Remote. The selection is made on the Cooling Control Panel. In the Remote mode, pump changeover is controlled by the transmitter. In local, the cooling control panel buttons (front) select the pumps. The local mode can be used for start-up, testing and troubleshooting. In either local or remote modes pump operation requires an enable signal from the transmitter or, if the transmitter is not operational, then temporary jumpers may be installed in the cooling control panel to allow operation of the pump without the transmitter connection. The temporary jumper configuration is described in "2.11.1.1 Starting the Pump" on page 2-21

Select Pump A on Cooling Control Panel (LED should illuminate).

Fill the pump module tank with water. The reservoir is filled via the tank vent cap shown in Figure 2-6. See section B.1 Coolant and Water Recommendations in Appendix B for more information.

! CAUTION:IF FREEZING CONDITIONS EXIST DURING CHECKOUT AND FLUSHING PROCEDURES, THE FLUSHING PROCEDURE AND SUBSEQUENT FILL WITH FINAL GLYCOL/WATER MUST BE FINISHED BEFORE STILL WATER IS ALLOWED TO REMAIN IN HEAT EXCHANGER. IF PROCEDURE CANNOT BE FINISHED, CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO PREVENT WATER FROM FREEZING IN OUTSIDE COOLING SYSTEM EQUIPMENT. SHOULD A DELAY BE ENCOUNTERED DURING THE FLUSHING/CLEANING PROCESS THE HEAT EXCHANGER COULD BE COVERED WITH A TARP AND HEAT APPLIED FROM AN EXTERNAL SOURCE LIKE A PORTABLE HEATER (WITH THE PUMP RUNNING) TO PREVENT THE WATER FROM FREEZING UNTIL FLUSHING CAN BE RESUMED. IF WATER REMAINS IN OUTSIDE EQUIPMENT LONG ENOUGH TO FREEZE, THE UNITS WILL BE DAMAGED. PUMP A MIXTURE OF GLYCOL/WATER INTO OUTSIDE EQUIPMENT TO PREVENT DAMAGE.

NOTE:The system cannot be filled to capacity at this time. Water must be added as pipes and equipment fill up during initial pump turn on. The reservoir tank is equipped with level switches which will issue a warning when the water level is low and shut the pump off if the water level is below the fault level.

2.11.1 Venting Air from Pump

! WARNING:FAILURE TO PERFORM THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE MAY DAMAGE THE PUMP AND CONTAMINATE THE COOLANT AND TRANSMITTER. DO NOT RUN THE PUMP MORE THAN 15 SECONDS WITHOUT NORMAL FLOW OF COOLANT. LONGER RUNNING WITHOUT COOLANT CAN DAMAGE THE PUMP SEALS.

Use this procedure whenever the coolant level in the tank has been below the intake of either of the pumps. This intake is about 1 inch [25 mm] above the bottom of the tank. The procedure must be performed separately on each pump if there are two pumps in a module tank and the coolant has been drained. If a single pump has been removed from a pump module, the procedure need only be performed on the pump which has been removed.

Theory of operation: The check valve at the output of each pump requires about 1 psi pressure to open. When the tank is filled, the closed check valve may not allow the coolant to enter the pump, and the pump will not produce pressure. It may be necessary to vent the air from the pump to allow the level of coolant in the pump to equalize with the level of coolant in the tank.

2.11.1.1 Starting the Pump

In order to start the pump the transmitter must be powered up and connected to the pump module. If the transmitter has not yet been powered up or if it has not been connected to the pump module use the following jumpers to allow independent operation of the pump module for filling and flushing.

The pump module can be operated independently, without being attached to the transmitter. In order to operate properly, without the transmitter connected, jumpers are required on the X3 terminal board inside the Cooling Control Box. Jumper X3-1 to X3-6, X3-2 to X3-3 to X3-9, and X3-9 to X3-10. See jumpers in Figure 2-7.

Figure 2-7 X3 Jumpers in Cooling Control Box

! CAUTION:THE X3 JUMPERS DESCRIBED IN FIGURE 2-7 SHOULD ONLY BE INSTALLED WHEN THE TRANSMITTER I/O PANEL IS NOT CONNECTED TO THE COOLING CONTROL PANEL. INSTALLING THE JUMPERS WITH THE TRANSMITTER ATTACHED TO THE COOLING CONTROL BOX MAY DAMAGE THE TRANSMITTER I/O BOARD OR THE COOLING CONTROLLER.

Section 2 Installation / Initial Turn-On ATLAS ISDB-T

Start the pump. If the pump does not produce pressure and flow within 15 seconds, shut it off. It will be necessary to vent the pump output to the ambient air pressure. With AC power to the pump shut off, remove the vent plug (location shown in Figure 2-8 on page 2-22 or in some instances on the adapter closest to the motor housing) for at least 10 seconds and then replace it. This allows the pump to fill with coolant. Then start the pump and check for normal coolant flow as described above.

If the coolant system is leak free it will be necessary to vent air from the higher parts of the pipework going to the transmitter. This is to avoid air in the return being mixed into the coolant. An air vent valve with a hose connection should be installed in this line. Use a short hose and a bucket to vent the air. When coolant flows from the vent valve, immediately close the valve and collect the coolant in the bucket for return to the pump module tank.

2.11.3 Initial System Leak Tests

Turn on pump A for several minutes. Upon the establishment of a steady (no air bursts) volume of water throughout the system, begin visual check for leaks. Turn off Pump A after thorough leak checks.

Turn on pump B for several minutes. Upon the establishment of a steady (no air bursts) volume of water throughout the system, continue visual check for leaks. Turn off Pump B after thorough leak checks.

! CAUTION:THE SYSTEM MUST BE TESTED FOR LEAKS AGAIN ONCE THE REQUIRED 50/50 GLYCOL/WATER MIXTURE HAS FILLED THE ENTIRE SYSTEM LATER IN THE INSTALLATION PROCESS.

NOTE:The transmitter is equipped with a leak detector which shuts down the pumps in the event of a leak. The leak detector activates when liquid enters its reservoir. There are four holes in the metal shelf underneath the PA coolant hoses to allow the liquid to enter. These holes must be free of obstructions. If there is tape cover-ing these holes (installed during factory testing), remove the tape.

Check immediately for any leaks at the following cooling system points.

• Transmitter inlet and outlet connections at the manifolds

• Pump module inlet and outlet connections

• Heat exchanger inlet and outlet connections

• Test Load valve connections

• Test Load Flow Switch inlet and outlet connections

• All solder joints, system valves, drain valves, and hose connections

Repair any detected leaks. If leaks have developed, and depending upon the nature of the leak, some water may have to be drained from the system before making repairs.

Section 2 Installation / Initial Turn-OnATLAS ISDB-T

2.11.4 Initial System Cleaning

Once the cooling system has been determined to be free of leaks it should be cleaned and flushed before continuing the installation.

Create cleansing solution. Using a mixture of water (see section b.1 Coolant and Water Recommendations in Appendix B) and a cleaning solution (a mixture of 4 cups of a trisodium phosphate-based detergent, such as Cascade, in 2 gallons of water), proceed with the following steps.

Strain mixture into tank through a fine filter.

Run the system for 1 hour. Alternate pumps A and B for 30 minutes each.

Drain the system.

NOTE:The pump module reservoir (tank) can be emptied with a hand or powered pump.

To drain the system, open all of the system and cabinet drain valves. Once draining is complete close all cabinet drain valves.

2.11.5 Initial System Flushing

Flush system of cleaning solution. Before the initial transmitter operation the cooling system must be purged of most of the cleaning solution residue left from the cleaning of the system.

The flushing can be accomplished by alternately filling, running, and draining the system, two to four (or more if needed) times using water.

NOTE:The length of flushing time, and number of fill/drain cycles needed to achieve desired water quality will vary with system size. The smaller the system, the shorter length and lesser number of fill/drain cycles. The opposite will be true for larger systems.

Fill system with water (see section b.1 Coolant and Water Recommendations in Appendix B). Water is added via the tank vent cap.

Run system for approximately 20 minutes. Alternate pumps A and B for 10 minutes each.

Drain system.

Repeat above steps. EXCEPT - During the last flushing with water cycle, the cabinet (PA and chiller plates) and test/reject load connections will be opened to the cooling system. Perform the following three steps prior to the last fill, run, and drain cycle.

• Open cabinet (all cabinets if multi-cabinet Atlas) supply and return line valves.

• Open test and reject load supply and return line valves.

• Close input and return manifold bypass valves.

2.11.6 Final Cooling System Fill

! CAUTION:THE SYSTEM MUST BE TESTED FOR LEAKS AGAIN ONCE THE REQUIRED 50/50 GLYCOL/WATER MIXTURE HAS FILLED THE ENTIRE SYSTEM.

Fill pump module tank with equal amounts of coolant and water (see section B.1 Coolant and Water Recommendations in Appendix B). The amount of residual water in the system must be taken into account when adding coolant and water to the system. The amount of residual water (water that remains trapped in the system and can’t be readily removed by emptying the reservoir tank) and will vary from system to system. The amount of residual water can be estimated if the amount of initial fill water is tracked and compared to the amount of re-fill water required. If the residual water is ignored, the concentration of coolant may be less than the specified 50/50 mixture.

Run pumps for several minutes to start refilling the rest of the system. Alternate pumps A and B.

Check and fill pump module tank with amounts of coolant and water as needed to achieve the 50/50 mixture. Use a conventional float hydrometer and jar or a MISCO DFR 200 or equivalent digital refractometer to verify the 50/50 mixture. The hydrometer should be capable of measuring specific gravity in the 1.02 to 1.08 range. Information regarding specific gravity measurement is given in Appendix B.

pumps to operate but with much degraded performance. If this is the case, see Section 2.11.1.1 section above.

2.13.1.2 Setting the Water Cooled Test Load Flow Switch Trip Level

Prepare to set the flow meter switch trip point. See documentation included with flow meter for procedure details.

! CAUTION:DURING TESTING OF THE FLOW SWITCH RF SHOULD BE MUTED.

Adjust the test load coolant supply valve until the meter reads the correct flow rate shown in Table 2-6, or as indicated in Layout, Liquid Cooling System drawing.

NOTE:Adjusting the flow rate of either the test load or the transmitter will, to some extent, have an affect on the flow rate of the other. Several iterations of adjusting one, then the other, may be necessary to attain the exact flow rates for both.

! CAUTION:IN ORDER TO PROTECT THE TEST LOAD, THE LOAD FLOW INTERLOCK SWITCH MUST BE SET TO OPEN (FAULT OFF TRANSMITTER) IF ADEQUATE COOLANT FLOW IS NOT PROVIDED TO THE LOAD.

Upon completion of adjustment of flow to the cabinets and load, note the operating pressure and then open the sidestream filter valve. Adjust the sidestream filter valve to achieve a 1 psi drop in system pressure. This will allow adequate water flow through the filter while maintaining adequate flow through other components. If opening the sidestream filter valve decreases flow below recommended levels then readjustment of system flow may be required. Flow through the cabinets and loads can be increased slightly to regain nominal values.

Check the Load interlock. Once the flow rate is correct, press OUPUT to go to the RF Output screen. This screen displays status of the load interlock (open or closed).

Adjust the flow switch trip level until the GUI displays Load Interlock: Closed.

Page 66: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 2 Installation / Initial Turn-On ATLAS ISDB-T

Verify that the flow switch operates correctly by decreasing the amount of flow through the load. The interlock should OPEN.

NOTE:This open interlock is designed to mute the transmitter RF while the transmitter is operating into the test load. Patch Panel status signals will tell the Main Control-ler to ignore this interlock if the transmitter output is currently routed into the antenna.

Go back to the nominal flow rate recommended for the test load. The interlock should close.

2.13.1.3 Setting the Heat Exchanger Fan Turn ON Temperatures

The two thermostats that control the heat exchanger fan turn on temperatures were factory set for 32o C (Fan A) and 38o C (Fan B).

Verify the control settings and adjust if necessary. Inside the Heat Exchanger panel, verify that the control setting for the left (Fan A) and right (Fan B) thermostats are set at 32oC and 38ºC, respectively, which will switch fan A on when the coolant temperature reaches 32o C, and Fan B on if the temperature raises to 38o C.

The +/- adjustment controls the differential when the fans will switch off, which is factory set to 4o C for both. This will switch Fan A off when the temperature cools to 28o C, and Fan B will turn off when the coolant temperature reaches 34o C.

2.13.1.4 Verifying Pump Switching

Verify that both pumps operate properly by switching pumps back and forth using the GUI screen. Also verify that correct flow rate is achieved with either pump active.

• Press SYSTEM then SYSTEM COOLING. This screen is shown in Figure 3-25 on page 3-26.

• Select manual pump switching. Button should display MANUAL ENABLED.

• Press pump select button for PUMP A ON then PUMP B ON. The pumps should switch. This is indicated in the transmitter GUI screen, as well as in the Cooling Control Panel status LED indicators.

Switch ON the two, four, six or eight PA circuit breakers (CB1 - CB8 depending on transmitter model) on the mid deck in the rear of the transmitter.

Press the transmitter ON button.

Verify that the reflected power at each PA module is under 50 watts. The PA Meters screen shows the forward and reflected power for each PA Module. Press the BACK button.

All PA modules should show a green (OK) status indication on the GUI (Power Amp screen).

Press OUPUT then OUTPUT METERS. This page shows the forward and reflected powers for the Cabinet and Total System power. The VSWR is also indicated.

Slowly bring up the transmitter power by pressing the RAISE button on front panel to the nominal value, as indicated by the bar graphs. Monitor the cabinet forward and reflected powers, as well as the VSWR reading. A large VSWR (above 1.1) is indicative of a bad RF connection to the test load.

Check PA Module (and multi-cabinet) Phasing. See "5.4 PA Module Phasing" on page 5-6 for steps to observe the below screen. If any of the PA Module (or cabinet) reject load temperature levels are more than 3 degrees C. above coolant temperature, proceed to "5.4.2 Module Phasing Procedure" on page 5-7 for details on adjusting levels.

Verify that the transmitter meter readings are close to the factory test data meter readings, mainly all of the current and voltage readings.

Perform an Auto Bias procedure. See "5.3 PA Module Auto Bias Procedure" on page 5-5 for more information. Due to natural drift of LDMOS devices with age, periodic re-biasing of the pallets within the modules is recommended. However, this procedure has been automated and is done with the press of a button, and only takes a few seconds.

NOTE:This procedure should initially be done every 2 weeks for the first 2 months of operation. Then it should be done once a month for the next 4 months after that, and then once every 6 months of operation from then on.

Verify power output on GUI corresponds with the external power meter. If there is a discrepancy, perform the power calibration procedure "5.5 Power Calibrations" on page 5-9 in this manual.

2.14 Parallel Remote Control Connections

Once proper operation of the transmitter has been initiated, remote control connections can be made. The following tables list the connectors and their corresponding signal names and functions.

NOTE:To access the External I/O board connections, turn the knob on the right side of Control Panel counter clockwise. This will allow the panel to swing open right-to-left. There is knob on the chassis that the External I/O board is mounted on. Pull this knob upwards and pull the I/O board towards you, being watchful of all cables as the chassis slides forward.

External Parallel remote control units can interface at the External I/O Board. J13 through J17 are for remote Control, Status and ISDB-T readings. The connectors are organized as follows:

• J13 and J14 - Remote Transmitter Control Functions

• J15 and J16 - Remote Status Outputs

• J17 - Remote ISDB-T Metering Outputs

NOTE:The forward slash ( / ) in front of a signal name means active low. The signal named "/INPUT 1" for example is activated by momentarily bringing that input low. Signal names without the forward slash are considered active high. This con-vention is used throughout the schematics.

2.14.1 Transmitter Control Functions, J13 and J14

All control inputs use opto-isolators for surge protection. The opto-isolators are powered by an internal +5Vdc from an isolation protection circuit, U54.

All transmitter control functions (except Remote RF Mute, RF Switch Position A and RF Switch Position B, which are active LOW or HIGH level input states) are momentary ground switching and require the remote control equipment to sink at least 15mA to activate the function. The Pinouts of J13 and J14 are listed in Table 2-7

3.1 Introduction

This section gives detailed operational information for the Atlas ISDB-T Solid-State UHF TV transmitter. Information will pertain mostly to the operation and navigation of the Graphical User interface (GUI) Touchscreen display.

NOTE:Operation of the Apex ISDB-T exciter is covered in a separate manual which came with the transmitter.

3.2 Transmitter Control Panel

The front panel user interface is a 1/4 VGA, LCD touchscreen display. This touchscreen display uses software buttons to monitor the transmitter. Hardware buttons for the primary transmitter functions such as ON/OFF, RAISE/LOWER and Remote Enable/Disable are provided on the overlay panel next to the display as shown in Figure 3-1.

NOTE:When the transmitter is turned off using the OFF button under normal conditions, the Pump Module pump will continue to run for approximately 3 minutes.

Section 3 Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

Figure 3-1 Transmitter Control Panel

NOTE:A similar set of GUI screens is available via web browser with an ethernet net-work connection and the optional eCDi hardware interface.

3.2.1 Main Menu "Quick" Buttons

Just to the right of the touchscreen, there are 5 hardware buttons which are part of the front panel overlay. Located next to each button is a Status LED which illuminates green under normal, no fault conditions. These buttons provide quick access to each of the 5 main transmitter groups, namely:

a. Drive Chain

b. Power Amp

c. Output

d. Power Supply

e. System

The Status LED next to the button will turn red if there is a warning or fault condition in that section of the transmitter. It will be green if the sub-system is normal. This provides quick access to the required and relevant diagnostics information, without having to be familiar with a menu structure.

Section 3 OperationATLAS ISDB-T

NOTE:To differentiate these buttons from the ones which show up on the LCD display, these will be referred to as "Quick" buttons in the manual text.

3.3 Graphical User Interface (GUI)

The GUI ("Gooey") was designed to provide an intuitive interface into the transmitter control system. Once you know what information is available, finding the information you want is simply a matter of following the screens to the desired section of the transmitter. Menu Trees of all available screens are given at the end of this section, see "3.10 GUI Menu Structures" on page 3-35.

For the most part, all navigation through the GUI screens is done via the touchscreen and softkeys (software buttons). The exceptions are the 5 hardware buttons mentioned above. The touchscreen display is also divided into an active display area, which will change with each screen, and the global areas which are present on all screens.

3.3.1 Global Status and Navigation

The top 2 sections of the touchscreen display are considered global because they show up on all screens. The top line indicates the transmitter name and model number.

Section 3 Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

The second line of the display has operational and status information including:

a. ON, Standby, Fault OFF, ON/FB (transmitter foldback), PS MUTE, and RF MUTE status indication.

• ON: Normal operating mode

• Standby: Transmitter turned off manually or remotely

• Fault OFF: Transmitter forced off due to fault condition

• ON/FB: Transmitter power folded back. Conditions causing the foldback may by temporary and could possibly be cleared by pressing the ON button. If, after pressing the ON button to reset the foldback, the ON/FB indication resumes the malfunction will need to be determined and the transmitter repaired (see Section 6 for fault log listings).

• PS MUTE: A temporary fault condition caused by a power supply related fault. If underlying fault clears, the mute condition will be lifted and the transmitter returned to normal operating mode. If the mute continues, the underlying fault will need to be determined and the transmitter repaired (see Section 6 for fault log listings).

• RF MUTE: A temporary fault condition caused by an RF related fault. If underlying fault clears, the mute condition will be lifted and the transmitter returned to normal operating mode. If the mute continues, the underlying fault will need to be determined and the transmitter repaired (see Section 6 for fault log listings).

b. Transmitter Forward power output reading in numerical format (for multiple cabinet transmitters this would be a system power reading and not for a single cabinet). It is important to note that this is the power output after the filter.

c. Transmitter Forward power output reading in a Bar graph format. The 100% mark is based on the nominal power level or TPO (Transmitter Power Output) entered into the configuration screen. The barograph will also turn yellow if the power level is more than 10% higher or lower than the nominal 100% level.

d. Main Menu Symbols which are basically status for the 5 main transmitter sections. If illuminated red, that section of the transmitter has one or more faults. These status indicators correspond to the 5 hardware buttons to the right of the display.

The top bar in Figure 3-2 should be all green under normal (no fault) operating conditions. A yellow or red symbol or status indication should be investigated by the station engineer.

These warnings will be indicated by yellow LED indication on PA modules. These warnings can be disregarded as they are due to the fact that the LDMOS devices have not yet reached the nomi-nal operating temperature. To clear warnings press the ON button again to reset.If a PA Bias warning occurs well after the transmitter has attained normal operat-ing temperature it may be an indication that the PA Module Alignment needs to be performed.

4.1 Introduction

This section contains detailed descriptions of the Atlas Series transmitter and its internal sub-assemblies and any pertinent information regarding the external assemblies such as the pump module and heat exchanger.

The rest of this section will be broken up into 4 main topics:

• Control System

• RF System

• Power Supplies

• Cooling System

4.1.1 Active Logic Symbols

Each logic signal has an active and inactive state and a unique name within the system. To differentiate between active high or active low logic states on the schematics, a forward slash (/) is placed in front of an active LOW signal name such as /RF_MUTE. This means that if this logic line is pulled low, the transmitter RF will be muted. By the same logic, the signal RF_MUTE_LED (an active high signal with no forward slash) will turn on the RF mute LED when it goes high.

In some cases, a logic signal may act as a toggle with both states active, as with the signal /ON_OFF, where LOW = ON and a HIGH = OFF. If this signal is inverted it would be ON_/OFF.

Section 4 Theory of Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

4.2 Block Diagram Descriptions

See Figure 1-2 on page 1-4 through Figure 1-5 on page 1-7 for a basic block diagram of the ISDB-T transmitter system. There is also an overall transmitter block diagram at the front of the schematic package that came with the transmitter. As a standard practice, the first page of a PC board schematic is also a block diagram of that board. Table 4-1 gives the basic Atlas ISDB-T model numbers and configurations.

4.3 Transmitter Control System

The Atlas Series transmitters utilize a very advanced but simple to use control system. It is a microprocessor, serial communication based software control system but uses backup Life Support logic circuitry and hard wired control lines, allowing the transmitter to be on the air even if the main control system fails.

Figure 4-1 shows a simplified block diagram of the transmitter control system. The left side of the diagram shows the external connections to the transmitter or more specifically the External I/O Board. The right side of the diagram shows the internal control system inter-connections from the Main Controller to the various sub-systems inside the transmitter cabinet.

Figure 4-1 Control System Simplified Block Diagram

NOTE:eCDi™ is an optional Transmitter Network Interface appliance that provides completely comprehensive remote control and monitoring of every data point within the transmitter. It includes an SNMP (Simple Network Management Pro-tocol) manager, and allows integration with most Control Systems via the Inter-net or LAN.

4.3.1 Micro Module

All of the control boards in the transmitter use the 376 Micro Module. The micro module is a daughter board with a standardized interface which is plugged into a motherboard. It contains Flash memory for storage of its programming and SRAM for program execution. The programming in the flash memory can be re-programmed or upgraded using In-System Programming or ISP (no hardware needs to be changed) via serial connection. In general the micro modules are responsible for control, monitoring and reporting, but have very little to do with transmitter protection which is handled mainly by the CPLD (see "4.3.2 CPLD, Complex Programmable Logic Device" on page 4-4).

2/24/09 888-2684-001 4-3 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 116: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

Features of the 376 module include:

a. Built-in CAN (Controller Area Network) bus controller

b. 16 A/D inputs for analog metering

c. A serial EEPROM for non-volatile memory storage

d. A built in clock running at 4.194MHz which will let the micro run at 16-25MHz

e. Power failure detection

f. A watchdog which will reset the micro if it is not triggered at least every 1.6 seconds (this time interval will change depending on the application). A discrete logic device or CPLD is almost always provided on the motherboard to act as an I/O expansion device and in some cases as life support if the micro module fails.

g. Multiple I/O lines whose direction of signal flow is based on the flash memory programming. These could be control or status, inputs or outputs, depending on the particular use.

The main responsibility of the micro module is control of the CPLD and the reporting and receiving of information over the CAN bus. This means that the CPLD will continue to monitor and protect the systems to which it is connected even if the micro module fails. However, there will be no reporting of information to the rest of the transmitter system since access to the CAN bus is gone without the micro module.

4.3.2 CPLD, Complex Programmable Logic Device

The transmitter control boards with the micro module also incorporate a CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) with the exception of the module controllers. The CPLD is not a microprocessor but is actually just programmed discrete logic and is therefore very stable and reliable. The CPLD’s in the transmitter perform two vital functions in terms of control and transmitter monitoring:

a. I/O Expansion

b. Life Support Backup

4.3.2.1 I/O Expansion

Each Micro Module only has a limited number of Input/Output or I/O lines available. The CPLD’s provide a way to easily expand the available I/O ports on each control board. Basically, the CPLD’s are actually controlling and monitoring the I/O for each control board. The micro module is taking that information and relaying it, via the CAN bus, to the Main Controller for display on the front panel control screen or a remote

4-4 888-2684-001 2/24/09 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 117: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of OperationATLAS ISDB-T

control system. If the micro module wants to send a control command, it simply addresses the correct I/O line on the CPLD and it then sends out the command.

4.3.2.2 Life Support Backup

The CPLD monitors the watchdog circuit or more specifically the RESET line on the micro module. If the micro module stops executing its program, the watchdog circuit will activate the micro reset line and the control board in question is considered to be in "Life Support Mode". Since all metering and status is done via the CAN bus, the CPLD will still monitor and protect the systems to which it is connected, but there will be no information reporting to the rest of the control system, the front panel display or a remote control. Control and protection are now limited to the hardwired control lines on the system control bus and any protection circuits built into the CPLD or the control board itself.

For more information on specific functionality of each control board in a life support mode, see the individual control board descriptions later in this section.

4.3.3 Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus

The Controller Area Network or CAN bus is a high speed serial communications link which is used between the transmitter control boards for transmission of control, status, fault and metering information. The CAN bus is distributed as part of the System Control Bus (ribbon cable). The CAN bus can operate at speeds up to 1Mbps and is designed to operate in hostile industrial environments. The transceivers feature cross wire, loss of ground, over voltage and over temperature protections. A CAN transceiver connected to the CAN bus is considered a Node. There can be up to 110 nodes on the bus with a maximum bus length of about 40 meters for 1Mbps operation.

In a CAN system, data is transmitted and received using Message Frames. Message Frames carry data from a transmitting node to one or more receiving nodes. The messages transmitted from any node on a CAN bus do not contain addresses of either the transmitting node or of any intended receiving node.

Instead, the content of each Message Frame (e.g. ON, OFF, PS 1 Voltage, Coolant Flow OK etc.) is labeled by an identifier that is unique throughout the network. All other nodes on the network receive the message and each performs an acceptance test on the identifier to determine if the message, and thus its content, is relevant to that particular node. If the message is relevant, it will be processed; otherwise it is ignored.

The micro modules have a built in CAN controller which connects to a CAN Transceiver which becomes a node on the CAN bus. The CAN transceiver interfaces

the single ended CAN controller to the differential CAN bus for high common mode noise immunity, as shown in Figure 4-2. All of the control boards can send and receive information over the differential CAN bus, however the Main Controller determines what information is sent and when it is sent for this application.

NOTE:There is an LED on the Main Controller, DS24, which will flicker on and off at a random rate indicating that there is activity on the CAN bus. If the LED is off or always on, then the CAN bus is most likely not communicating.

Figure 4-2 CAN Transceiver Diagram

All fault reporting and status and metering information displayed on the GUI is sent on the CAN bus to the Main Controller and to the External I/O board for remote monitoring. Transmitter control signals are also sent via CAN but are also sent over hardwired parallel control lines.

4.3.4 System Control Bus

The System Control Bus is a multi-conductor ribbon cable which distributes the CAN (Controller Area Network) bus and several parallel control lines to all micro-controllers in the system. System Control Bus connection points include:

1. Main Controller

2. Backplane Interface Board

3. PA Module Controllers (via the Backplane Interface Board)

4.3.4.1 Parallel Control Lines

The parallel control lines are used for quick actuation of critical functions, such as ON, OFF, RF mute, PS mute, AC_Low and Fault Off. These lines are also the backup control lines in Life Support mode when the Main Controller (and therefore the CAN bus) is not operational. Each board in the control system can independently activate some or all of the parallel control lines to protect the transmitter in case of a fault or other condition that may adversely affect the transmitter. These parallel control signals are duplicated in the CAN messages. The following is a brief explanation of each of the parallel control lines included in the system control bus.

a. ON_/OFFThis command corresponds to the transmitter operator pushing the "ON" or "OFF" button, thereby turning the transmitter on or off respectively. This signal is high for ON and low for OFF. This is driven only by the Main Controller and is a sense only line for the rest of the control boards.

b. /RESTRIKE (reset)This command is monitored by all of the control boards but is driven only by the Main Controller board. When the transmitter is already turned ON and the operator presses the "ON" button again, this line will be pulsed low for a minimum of 100ms. This will cause all of the controller boards to reset any faults and status and try to return to normal operation. This line is a sense only line for the rest of the control boards.This command is basically a RESET pulse which will try to turn on any transmitter components which have faulted off due to a critical fault condition. If they are still faulty, this will be detected and the component will simply be shut off again. This will not reset or clear the Fault Log.

c. /FLT_OFFThis command is initiated whenever a fault occurs that requires all RF to be shut off and the PA supplies to be disabled. This is a latching type signal that requires user input to clear the fault and turn the transmitter back on. This signal is active low. The Main Controller, Power Block Controller, External I/O and RF Controller Board monitor this line and have the ability to activate it if necessary.

d. /RF_MUTEThe /RF_MUTE line shuts down all RF output temporarily until the fault condition is cleared. This is a non-latching signal. The Main Controller, Power Block Controller, External I/O, and RF Controller boards monitor this line and have the ability to activate it if necessary.

2/24/09 888-2684-001 4-7 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 120: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

e. /PS_MUTEThe /PS_MUTE line shuts down the output of the 32 Volt PA module supplies temporarily until the fault condition is cleared.This is a non-latching signal. The Main Controller, Power Block Controller, External I/O and RF Controller Boards monitor this line and have the ability to activate it if necessary.

f. /AC_LOWThis signal is an early warning of impending loss of control voltage. When the AC line voltage that powers the LVPS(s) drops below an acceptable threshold the board will pull this open collector line low. Phase samples L3-L1 (C-A) are continuously monitored. The other boards in the control system will use this indication as an advanced warning to save any data and prepare for loss of power.The Power Block Controller board is the only control board with the ability to drive this signal and it will affect the Main Controller, External I/O and RF Controller Boards.

g. ALC - Automatic Level Control. The ALC signal is used to control the transmitter power output and is normally sent digitally over the CAN bus. This line carries a voltage from the Main Controller to the PA Modules which is an analog version of the digital ALC signal sent over the CAN bus. It is a backup signal only used by the modules if the CAN bus fails and the modules lose communication with the Main Controller. If the CAN bus is operational, this signal is not used.

4.3.5 Main Controller

The Main Controller is the primary interface between the transmitter and the operator via the front panel Graphical User Interface or GUI. It is connected to all transmitter subsystems, both internal and external to the transmitter, through the CAN (Controller Area Network) bus and dedicated parallel control lines. The CAN bus and the parallel control lines are distributed on a single multi-conductor cable called the System Control Bus.

The Main Controller is mounted directly behind the front control panel. It is directly connected to the front panel switchboard which is considered a "Mezzanine" board. The front panel switchboard uses a CPLD to serialize the I/O (the control lines and status signals) to and from the Main Controller.

4.3.5.1 Transmitter Control

The Main Controller is the central point for all system control, metering and diagnostics. It reports this information to the operator via the Graphical User Interface or GUI and through several remote control options.

4-8 888-2684-001 2/24/09 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 121: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of OperationATLAS ISDB-T

4.3.5.1.1 Graphical User Interface (GUI)

The GUI is a touchscreen LCD display which is equivalent to 1/4 of a VGA display. This is the primary local interface for the operator but is not required to operate the transmitter. The primary operator controls, ON, OFF, RAISE, LOWER are located on the front panel next to the GUI. Operation and navigation of the GUI is covered in Section 3 of this manual.

4.3.5.1.2 Remote Controls

There are 3 remote control and monitoring options which can all access information gathered by the Main Controller via the External I/O Board. These options are shown on the left side of Figure 4-1.

a. Standard Parallel Remote Control System - The External I/O Board has con-nections for dedicated remote control systems with the standard parallel control inputs, status outputs and analog metering outputs.

4.3.5.2 Serial Connections

The Main Controller has 5 serial ports (these are not for remote control applications):

a. 2 RS-485 serial ports, J5 and J6.

b. 1 serial port (part of ribbon cable J11) is connected to the External I/O Board but is not used at present.

c. 1 serial port, J90, is available for operator connection to run the In-System Programming or ISP software, supplied by Harris, to update the software for the Main Controller and/or any other micro in the transmitter.

d. 1 serial port, J7, is used by the optional eCDi interface.

4.3.5.3 Life Support Mode, Main Controller

The CPLD handles most of the inputs and outputs or I/O to the Main Controller. It also allows the CPLD to be able to maintain the transmitter on the air in a limited protection mode called "Life Support" in case the micro module fails. In this mode, the main function of the CPLD is to monitor the primary transmitter control and status lines and interface the front panel controls (ON/OFF, Raise/Lower, Remote Enable/Disable) to the rest of the transmitter.

2/24/09 888-2684-001 4-9 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 122: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

In Life Support Mode, there is also limited remote control input available from the External I/O Board via J11 on the Main Controller, including:

• Remote ON and OFF• Remote Drive Chain Select• Remote Pump Select• Remote Raise and Lower• External Interlock

Transmitter power will be controlled by the analog ALC (Automatic Level Control) voltage sent over a discrete line on the System Control Cable to all of the PA modules (normally the ALC value is sent over the CAN bus to control transmitter power).

4.3.5.3.3 Manual Switching

There are 3 momentary switches on the Main Controller board, 2 of which are primarily for use in a life support mode when the micro module has failed and the GUI is therefore not available. These switches are for:

• Micro RESET, S2

• RF SEL, S4 - Not used in Atlas ISDB-T transmitter

• Pump Select, S5. This switch is labeled PUMP SEL. This will select the alternate coolant pump in the pump module.

These switches can be used at any time to reset the microprocessor or switch to the alternate coolant pump, but are meant for use during a life support mode when the GUI is not operational. Note the corresponding LED will illuminate for the pump selected.

Under normal operating conditions, the GUI or a remote control should be used to switch pumps. Also keep in mind that pump switching is an automatic function should there be a loss of coolant flow.

NOTE:To switch between the A or B RF Drive chain, press the Drive Switch (blue but-ton) on the front panel of the RFU. The corresponding LED will illuminate.

4.3.5.4 Manual RF MUTE

The Main Controller has a toggle switch, S3 which can be used to mute the transmitter RF output without shutting it off. This switch is primarily used for initial turn on and troubleshooting but can be used for any purpose which requires the RF output to be

muted. When activated, the LED (DS13) next to S3 will illuminate and the GUI will indicate an RF MUTE is present.

4.3.6 External I/O Board

The primary function of the External I/O Board is exactly as its name implies. It is the interface between the internal transmitter control system and all external or peripheral devices. Input/Output or I/O ports on the External I/O Board include:

a. System Control Bus connection to the Main Controller which includes the CAN bus and parallel control lines.

b. External I/O Control Cable which connects to the Main Controller. This cable has an RS-232 connection and several discrete remote control and status lines which will be used in the event of a failure of the CAN bus. These remote control and status lines include:

1. On and OFF

2. Raise and Lower

3. Driver A / Driver B Select

4. Pump 1 / Pump 2 Select

5. Driver A / Driver B Status

6. Pump 1 / Pump 2 Status

7. External Interlock

NOTE:These 7 lines represent the basic remote control functions and status indications that will be available if the CAN bus is not functioning.

c. Four (4) RS-232 communications ports.

1. One (1) is connected directly to the serial port on the micro-module and is used for VT-100 diagnostics and for ISP (In-System Programming).

2. Two (2) are for connection to an external computer or modem for serial remote control applications (applications provided by customer).

3. The last one is part of the External I/O Control cable which connects to the Main Controller, but is not used at present.

d. Five (5) parallel remote control connections.

1. Two (2) Remote Control Input Connectors (J13 and J14)

2. Two (2) Remote Status Output Connectors (J15 and J16)

Section 4 Theory of Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

3. One (1) Remote Metering Output Connection (J17)

NOTE:A complete listing of the parallel remote control connectors is given in Table 2-7, Table 2-8, and Table 2-9 starting on page 2-39.

e. External Interlock Terminal Block which gives a connection point for up to 6 external interlocks.

f. Pump Module Control Cable connection.

g. External System I/O Cable (J11) which is the connection point for an N+1 controller as well as Isolation load connections.

4.3.6.1 External Interlocks (J18 and J11)

J18 is designed to allow connection of up to 6 serially connected external interlock con-tacts. Four are used for Fault-Off activation and two are used for RF Mute activation. The transmitter is shipped with 6 jumpers installed on J18; bypassing all of the J18 external interlocks. The External Interlock circuit requires a closed contact between J18-1 and ground. This activates the External interlock relay K1 and allows the trans-mitter to turn on.

To use any one of the interlocks simply remove a jumper and connect the terminals to the interlock contacts of the external device. If the device opens the contact, the trans-mitter will be shut off. If the external interlock is not going to be used, all 6 jumpers must be installed, effectively connecting J18-1 to ground to allow the transmitter to turn on.

The External Interlock circuit uses relay K1 to directly drive the parallel control lines on the System Control Bus. If an interlock circuit is opened, relay K1 will relax to the posi-tion shown on the schematic. This will apply an RF Mute, PS Mute and most impor-tantly Fault-Off. During a Fault-Off condition the transmitter is shut off and cannot be turned on again until the external interlock circuit is closed and a new ON command is given locally or by remote.

J11 also provides an external interlock contact that will produce an RF Mute condition designed for use with a water cooled reject load or air cooled reject load thermal protec-tion. The transmitter is shipped with a jumper across this interlock connection.

Additional information regarding the interlock connections for J18 and J11 are provided in the Electrical Installation drawing (sheets 1 and 2).

4.3.6.2 Fault-Off Interlocks (J18)

There are four External Interlock terminals provided on J18 which will shut the trans-mitter off when the circuit is opened. These are primarily to be used for the protection of personnel. The Fault-Off jumpers are installed as follows:

• J18 pins 1-2 (connected to 3 Port Patch Panel or switch)

• J18 pins 3-4

• J18 pins 5-6

• J18 pins 7-8

NOTE:Fault-off interlocks will shut the transmitter off if opened and are provided for use in protection of personnel.

Page 126: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

4.3.6.3 RF Mute Interlocks (J18)

There are two interlock connections on J18 which can be used to apply an RF Mute con-dition while in Test Load mode. These are:

• J18-9 to J18-10 (for test load flow, test load thermal protection)

• J18-11 to J18-12 (for test load flow, test load thermal protection)

! WARNING:NOT TO BE USED IN ANY SITUATION WHERE PROTECTION OF PERSONNEL IS AN ISSUE.

The two RF Mute interlocks associated with J18 (described above) are not active when the transmitter is in the Antenna mode. They will be active when the transmitter is in the Test Load mode. When the transmitter is in the Antenna mode, flow to the RF test load can be turned off without causing an RF mute condition in the transmitter. By connecting a flow switch to an RF Mute interlock, only the RF output is held off until the coolant flow is present.

Control of the J18 RF Mute interlocks is accomplished via connections at J12 on the External I/O board. Closed contacts S1A on the patch panel status switch connected across J12-1 and J12-3 cause the transmitter to be in the Antenna mode (disabling the RF Mute interlocks on J18). Closed contacts S2A on the patch panel status switch con-nected across J12-1 and J12-4 cause the transmitter to be in the Test Load mode (enabling the RF Mute interlocks on J18).

When the transmitter is first turned on there is little or no coolant flow and if a flow switch were to be connected to a Fault OFF interlock (J18, 1-8), the transmitter cannot be turned on. However, by connecting a flow switch to the RF Mute interlock, only the RF output is held off until the coolant flow is present.

While the J18 RF Mute interlocks can be used for any purpose where it is desired to mute the RF temporarily (with transmitter in Test Load mode), the primary purpose is for use on a flow switch in a water cooled resistive test load.

The RF Mute interlocks on J18 can also be used for a dummy load thermal interlock. To use either of the interlocks simply remove a jumper and connect the terminals to the

interlock contacts of the external device. If the transmitter is in the Test Load mode and a device opens the contact, the RF will mute. If the RF Mute external interlocks are not going to be used, jumpers must be installed.

4.3.6.4 RF Mute Interlock (J11)

Another interlock connection on J11 can be used to apply an RF Mute:

• J11-10 to J11-12 (for water cooled reject load flow, or air cooled reject load thermal protection, in multi-cabinet systems)

The difference between the J11 interlock and the J18 RF Mute interlock is that the J11 interlock is always active – regardless of Load or Antenna mode.

! WARNING:NOT TO BE USED IN ANY SITUATION WHERE PROTECTION OF PERSONNEL IS AN ISSUE.

As shown in the Electrical Installation drawing the J11-10 to J11-12 RF Mute interlock should be connected to the reject load flow switch in multi cabinet applications. The interlock is active in both Antenna and Test Load modes.

4.4 Transmitter RF System

4.4.1 Apex Exciter(s)

The Atlas transmitter comes standard with a single Apex exciter. A second, standby exciter is available as an option along with an exciter changeover switch in the RF Unit (RFU). Operation and information about the Apex exciter is contained in the instruction manuals shipped with the exciter. The output of the exciter(s) are connected to the RFU.

4.4.2 RF Unit (RFU)

The RF Unit or RFU is a configurable unit which will have different components and uses depending on the transmitter power level and the number of exciters. It is a 2 RU device mounted in the front of the transmitter just above the exciters. Its basic function is to house the exciter changeover switch when required, and provide for exciter and

cabinet power metering. The RFU in cabinet 1 for multi-cabinet systems also provides for total power metering, and drive power splitting to feed each of the PA cabinets. The following examples cover the different configurations which are shown on the RFU Wiring Diagram, 843-5585-003:

Configuration 1: With Single Exciter

• For this configuration the RFU contains of the RFU Controller for monitoring of the drive and power outputs. In multi-cabinet configurations it will also contain a two or 3 way splitter.

Configuration 2: With Dual Exciters

• For this configuration the RFU will include the RFU controller, and an RF drive switch with a dummy load for the off-air exciter. This allows for RF monitoring of the output power, and of both exciters and automatic (or manual) changeover in case the output of the on-air exciter fails. In multi-cabinet configurations it will also contain a two or 3 way splitter.

The RF output(s) of the RFU connect to the Backplane Interface Boards for distribution to the PA Modules in each cabinet.

4.4.3 RF Controller Board

The RF Controller board is located inside the RFU subassembly towards the top of the cabinet rack. The RF Controller is responsible for the following:

a. Communicating with the System Controller via the internal Controller Area Net-work bus

b. Monitoring system and cabinet forward RF power

c. Monitoring cabinet reflected RF power

d. Maintaining hardware trip points for reject loads and forward and reflected power sense ports to generate an exception on the transmitter parallel bus in the event of a fault while in Life Support mode

e. Calculation of VSWR based on Forward and Reflected power samples (Not applicable in Life Support mode)

While this board utilizes the micro module, it is basically just responsible for communicating information from the CPLD to the Main Controller.

4.4.3.1 RF Detectors

There are 2 types of RF detectors used on the RF Controller board:

• Relative - Used to monitor the reject load power levels. These detectors are very accurate at a calibrated power level, but are not linear across a wide dynamic range.

• Precision - Used for metering of critical (metered) forward and reflected power levels of the cabinet and the system. These are true RMS detectors that are linear at all power levels, giving the accurate readings required for metering and VSWR protection.

Parameters monitored by the RF detectors include:

a. Precision RF power measurement #1 Cabinet Forward Power

b. Precision RF power measurement #2 Cabinet Reflected Power

c. Precision RF power measurement #3 System Forward Power

d. Precision RF power measurement #4 System Reflected Power

e. Precision RF power measurement #5 Drive Chain A Power

f. Precision RF power measurement #6 Drive Chain B Power

4.4.3.2 Cabinet Reject Load RF Detector (Relative)

The cabinet reject load RF detectors are a diode based envelope detector. These detectors are intended to provide relative readings only, not accurate absolute power measurements. The inputs for these detectors come from the customer I/O panel.

The reject load RF detector samples are used for 2 purposes:

• Overload protection of the reject loads

• Cabinet RF phase alignment

4.4.3.3 PA Module Reject Load Protection

The PA module reject loads, located inside the module combiner, are sized with enough margin to allow operation under any imbalance condition that may be encountered, with only one exception. In cases where four consecutive PA modules (1 thru 4 or 5 thru 8)

2/24/09 888-2684-001 4-17 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

are off or missing the reject load in the final stage of the combiner will see maximum power. The transmitter will continue to operate in this condition for for one minute before the transmitter shuts down to protect the combiner reject loads. When shutdown occurs the error screen shown in Figure 4-3 will appear as a reminder to relocate PA modules.

When four consecutive PA modules are inoperative they will need to be repositioned so that there are no longer four failed modules in either postions 1 thru 4 or 5 thru 8. Any combination of four failed modules is acceptable except for locating them all in 1 thru 4 or 5 thru 8.

Figure 4-3 Fault-Off Message Screen

4.4.3.4 PA Module Phase Alignment

NOTE:The 6-way combiner (for 6 PA module cabinets) is not equipped to individually phase each module, nor is it capable of supporting the "Auto Phase" mode. Therefore, the individual phasing adjust buttons or the Auto Phase button will not appear on the GUI screens as described in the following section.

The outputs of the reject load temperature sensors are multiplexed into a 10bit ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) on the micro module. The ADC output will correspond to the reject load temperature in degrees Centigrade. This temperature value shows up on the "PA Reject Service" screen on the GUI. A value of 0234 would correspond to a reject load temperature of 23.4 degrees C. A higher level of green in the bars indicates

If all of the modules have the correct insertion phase, the reject loads temperatures will be mininum on the PA Reject Service screen, and the temperature levels for each reject load will be similar and approximately 3 degrees above coolant temperature.

The reject load phasing can be done manually by selecting the module button and then adjusting the + or - buttons while monitoring reject load temperature or autophasing can be selected which will automatically minimize the temperature of each reject load. The automated process takes approximately 15 minutes to complete.

4.4.3.5 Normal Mode / Life Support Mode

The RF Controller operates in one of two modes, Normal and Life Support (micro module failure). Normal Mode differs from Life Support mode only in that reporting capability back to the Main Controller is lost in Life Support mode. All other fault handling functions, including comparator thresholds, are maintained by the CPLD even though the micro module is not functioning.

4.4.4 Backplane Interface Board

The Backplane Interface Board is accessed from the rear of the transmitter and is located just above the PA Module compartment. Its function is to distribute low voltage and control signals to the PA modules.

4.4.4.1 RF Splitter

The output of the RFU drives the 8-way, in phase, splitter located behind the backplane interface board in the rear of the transmitter. This type of splitter is broadband, covering the entire UHF range. When fewer than 8 PA modules are installed, the unused splitter outputs are terminated with a 50 Ohm element.

4.4.4.2 Control Distribution

The System Control Bus is also distributed to all of the PA Modules from here. The control bus includes both dedicated parallel control lines and the CAN (Controller Area Network) bus.

4.4.4.3 Low Voltage Power Supply Distribution

The LVPS is distributed to all of the PA Modules and includes:

• +7.5Vdc

• +15Vdc

• -15Vdc

For more information on the Low Voltage Power Supplies or LVPS, see "4.5.6 Low Voltage Power Supplies (LVPS)" on page 4-35

4.4.5 PA Module

The Atlas ISDB-T PA Module is a wide band, high gain, liquid cooled RF amplifier. Each PA module has a maximum RF output of 465W average power with a liquid cooled heat sink. The number of PA modules is determined by the transmitter power level or model and is given in Table 4-1. A fully populated cabinet has 8 PA Modules. Each PA module has a smart controller which interfaces via the CAN and parallel

i. PA Module Controller board (this includes a micro module)

j. Power Supply board

k. Power Supply Front End board

4.4.5.1 Phase and Gain Board

The RF enters the module and is routed directly to the Phase and Gain Board. This board provides several functions which are key to operation of the module:

a. It acts as a gain block to increase the RF input to a level that is sufficient to drive the predriver pallet.

b. It has an RF input switch which is used to mute and un-mute the RF through the module.

c. Input power sampling for metering and Input over-drive detection.

d. Receives I and Q vector control signals from the Module Controller Board which are used for module insertion phase and gain. This allows all of the modules to be adjusted for best phase and gain by the Main Controller in order to reduce the reject power in the module combiner and optimize PA efficiency. For 2 cabinet systems, all modules in a cabinet can be adjusted at the same time to permit cabinet phase and gain adjustment to minimize the cabinet combiner reject power. All phase and gain adjustments are done from the GUI.

e. Automatic Level Control or ALC to keep the power output of the module constant.

The RF output from the Phase and gain board connects to the Predriver pallet

Section 4 Theory of OperationATLAS ISDB-T

Figure 4-6 Phase and Gain Board Block Diagram

4.4.5.1.1 Automatic Level Control (ALC)

Each PA module uses an Automatic Level Control or ALC circuit to keep the module power output constant. The Module Controller receives an ALC control signal from the Main Controller via the CAN bus. This signal is driven by the raise and lower buttons on the control panel. A backup analog ALC voltage is also sent to each module via one of the parallel control lines. This analog voltage will only be used if CAN communications are lost.

The forward power output of the module is based on the factory calibration of the forward power sample from the pallet combiner inside the module. The ALC circuit on the Phase and Gain board will increase or decrease the drive level to the predriver to keep the module output constant. However, if a pallet were to fail, the PA Module Controller will reduce output RF signal so that the pallets are not over-driven and pre-correction requirements do not change significantly.

4.4.5.2 RF Pallets

The PA module utilizes several LDMOS RF amplifier pallets. The pallet is actually made up of 2 push-pull amplifiers with a hybrid splitter on the input and a hybrid combiner on the output. Eight (8) pallets are used as the main power amplifiers or PA

pallets, two (2) are used as Driver Pallets and 1/2 of one pallet is used for a Predriver. A simplified diagram of the pallet is given in Figure 4-7.

Figure 4-7 Pallet Simplified Diagram

4.4.5.2.2 Auto Bias Circuit

As LDMOS devices age, their biasing requirements change. To account for this, the module controller has the ability to automatically re-bias the pallets for the correct idle current by adjusting the gate bias voltages. This Auto Bias procedure should be done at regularly scheduled intervals and is initiated manually using the GUI.

NOTE:When the biasing procedure is initiated, the module will be muted and transmitter RF output will be affected. This procedure takes about 5 seconds.

The pallets get their gate bias voltages from 10 bit DAC’s (Digital to Analog Converters) on the Module Controller. Each pallet is divided into a Side A and Side B with each side having one Push-Pull Pair (PPP) LDMOS device. Each PPP has its own bias signal from a DAC output, but there is only one current sensor for each pallet. Therefore, the Auto Bias adjustment will be carried out on one side of all 8 pallets at a time, then it will do the other side to assure that each half is drawing its share of the idle current.

To bias the module, the controller will disable the ALC and mute the RF by opening the RF switch on the Phase and gain board. Then it will zero the bias currents for one side of all the pallets and adjust the bias for the desired idle current on the other half of each pallet. Then it will store these settings and repeat the procedure for the other half of the pallets.

Section 4 Theory of OperationATLAS ISDB-T

If during the bias procedure, one or more of the pallet currents does not fall within the acceptable margin of error, the procedure will be aborted and a warning of "Auto Bias Failure" will be sent to the Main Controller and the Fault Log.

For information about running the Auto Bias procedure refer to "5.3 PA Module Auto Bias Procedure" on page 5-5.

4.4.5.3 Pallet Splitters and Combiner

The two 4-way drive splitters and the 8-way pallet combiner are stripline hybrid circuits. The pallet combiner also has a directional coupler to sense forward and reflected power at the output of the module. The forward power sample is used for power monitoring and module ALC (Automatic Level Control). The reflected sample is used to protect the module from excessive VSWR.

4.4.5.4 Module Controller

The Module Controller uses the 376 micro module and is responsible for the following:

• Communicating with the Main Controller via the CAN bus.

• Monitoring drain current to each of eight RF pallets (from internal +32V PA power supply), driver, pre-driver and phase and gain board in the module for over-current conditions and for pallet biasing.

• Monitoring the coldplate temperature at the pre-driver, and PA Power Supply board temperature.

• Control and monitoring of PA power supply, including over and under voltage fault warnings.

• Executing phase adjustment commands from the Main Controller by generating I and Q control signals for the Phase and Gain Board.

• The Module Controller receives an output power reference level from the Main Con-troller via the CAN bus. This signal is used by the Module Controller ALC circuit to control the module output power by adjusting the level of I and Q signals to the Phase and Gain board.

• Fault monitoring and alarm generation, and control of module 3 Strike process.

• Monitoring RF input and output power to/from the module.

• Determining when to use the backup analog Automatic Level Control or ALC volt-age.

4.4.5.5 PS Front End Board

The main function of the PS Front End board is to rectify the 3 phase AC entering the module to high voltage DC used by the DC/DC converters. This board also serves to filter the power source of common mode noise.

Figure 4-8 Front End Block Diagram

4.4.5.6 Power Supply Board

The Power Supply Board is designed to connect the 5 DC/DC converters in parallel in order to provide sufficient DC power for one Atlas ISDB-T PA module. This board accepts high voltage DC as an input from the Front End board which converts the three phase mains voltage to DC with a three-phase, full-wave bridge rectifier. The high voltage DC is passed through a fuse to each converter. The primary or high-voltage side of the converters is floating with respect to earth ground. The converter outputs are low-voltage, ground referenced DC and are connected to a common bus through OR-ing diodes. This low voltage is used to supply the drain voltage requirements of the RF transistors on the PA pallets, drivers, predriver and phase/gain boards.

The Power Supply Board provides input short-circuit protection for each DC/DC converter. It provides status monitoring for each converter and a single temperature sample for the circuit board. The Power Supply Board provides a means to electronically adjust the converter output bus voltage, and provides current monitoring for each load with the ability to turn off any converter independently.

4.4.6 PA Module Combiner

The module combiner is a compact set of Wilkinson combiners optimized to work across the entire UHF frequency band from 470MHz to 860MHz. There are several combiner configurations depending on the number of PA modules. Figure 4-9 shows a full 8-way PA module combiner assembly. All four combiner sizes are designed for equal phase relationships of each input.

NOTE:All of the systems use the 8-way Backplane Interface board with any un-used splitter outputs terminated as in the case of the 2, 4 or 6 module systems (6-way RF system is not shown).

4.4.6.1 Combiner Isolation Loads

The combiner isolation loads are located inside the modular combiner. Except for the 6-way combiner, the reject load temperatures are monitored by the power block controller board and then minimized by adjusting the module Phase and Gain from the control panel. The isolation loads are mounted on the water cooled heatsinks (or Cold Plates) inside the combiner.

4.5 Power Supplies

This section covers both the AC and DC portions of the power supply as well as control, protection and monitoring. Actual sub-assemblies involved include:

a. MOV Board

b. OVP Board

c. Low Voltage Power Supplies or LVPS

d. Power Block Controller Board

4.5.1 AC Input

The AC mains input comes into the transmitter and attaches to TB5 on the cabinet ceiling, then is internally routed to CB9, the AC Mains breaker in the front of the transmitter. This is tied into terminal block TB1 which gives the necessary tie points for distribution to the 3 phase auto-transformer.

4.5.2 Autotransformer

Nominal 3 phase input voltage is 208, 220, 240, or 380, 400, 415VAC. Tolerable AC line variation is ±10%.

Nominal 3 phase output is 260VAC to supply the PA modules, and it also provides a 230VAC secondary output to power the LVPS units and the exciter(s).

4.5.3 MOV Board

The MOV board supplies a scaled AC current sample of each of the phases to the Power Block Controller board. The phase samples are an AC rms value such that 400VAC rms primary = 16.7milliamps AC rms. This AC rms signal is averaged to generate a scaled

DC representation for metering and protection. Table 4-3 on page 4-33, shows the analog metering sample levels and scaling factors used for the metering display.

The MOV board also provides four discrete lines to the Power Block Controller Board to indicate when a fuse is open on the MOV board.

4.5.4 Overvoltage (OVP) Board

The OVP board protects the auto-transformer output via fuses and polysistors. The status of these circuits is sent to the Power Block Controller board along with the temperature signal from the auto-transformer thermal sensor.

4.5.5 Power Block Controller Board

The Power Block Controller board monitors and controls the various power supplies and monitors the internal transmitter cooling. It uses the 376 micro module and is interfaced to the Main Controller via the CAN bus and the parallel control lines (System Control Bus). As is standard with all of the control boards, a CPLD is used for processing the digital I/O and interfaces with the micro-module. This allows the CPLD to be able to provide control and status monitoring in the event that the CAN bus or micro-controller fails. The following paragraphs give a detailed description of the individual Power Block Controller Board functions.

4.5.5.1 S2, Power Block Controller Board Configuration Switches

Dipswitch S2 has 8 switches, 3 of which are used to set the cabinet IDs. Table 4-2 shows the settings for the Cabinet ID sections of S2 (3-cabinet shown).

Page 143: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of OperationATLAS ISDB-T

4.5.5.2 LVPS Interface and Cabinet ID

The Power Block Controller Board controls the low voltage power supplies and acts as the distribution point for the low voltage to the rest of the system. The 2 supplies will be diode OR’ed on this board to provide redundancy should one supply fail. The CAN bus is then used to send the fault status of the failed supply to the Main Controller to alert the operator.

There are 2 Power Bus cables, J8 and J9, which carry the +7.5Vdc and +/-15Vdc from the LVPS, and the Cabinet ID (Identification) from dipswitch S2. J9 connects to the Backplane Interface board for distribution of low voltage and Cabinet ID to the PA modules. J8 distributes low voltage and cabinet ID to the RF Controller Board (in the RFU), External I/O Board, and the Main Controller. This allows one dipswitch to set the cabinet ID for all other sub-assemblies in the PA cabinet reducing the possibility of an error in setting the cabinet ID on each board.

4.5.5.3 AC Line Monitoring

The Power Block Controller board monitors the condition of the incoming 3 phase AC lines and provides status updates to the main controller via the CAN network. Upon detecting certain conditions, the Power Block Controller can activate the /FLT_OFF, /RF_MUTE, /PS_MUTE, or /AC_LOW command based on the fault. The following AC line conditions are monitored:

• AC line voltage

• Phase imbalance

• Phase sequence (rotation)

4.5.5.4 Cabinet Cooling System Sensors

The Power Block Controller connects to five sensors which are monitoring the cabinet cooling system.

• Ambient Temperature (Control Enclosure)• Fan Tachometer• Coolant Temperature - inlet & outlet• Coolant Flow• Coolant Leak

Page 144: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

Four of the sensors are located off the board with the ambient air temperature sensor physically mounted on the Power Block Controller Board. Sensor levels and the scaling used for the display metering are shown in Table 4-3.

4.5.5.4.1 Ambient Temperature

A temperature sensor is installed on the Power Block Controller board. This sensor outputs a voltage that is directly proportional to the temperature in degrees Celsius. The micro-controller monitors this reading and reports it to the main controller. A warning message will be sent when the temperature is >= 50 degrees C. When the temperature is >= 65 degrees C, the CPLD will illuminate the air temperature LED.

Figure 4-12 Cabinet Airflow Diagram

4.5.5.4.2 Fan Tachometer

The five flushing air fans are brushless, DC fans and each have a tachometer output to indicate the RPM of the fan. The Power Block Controller board controls and monitors the fan tachometers in the transmitter cabinet. The fans will be turned on only when the transmitter is in the ON state. If the fan is enabled and the fan tachometer reading is

Section 4 Theory of OperationATLAS ISDB-T

below the trip point (default 1500 RPM or 25 Hz.) a fan warning message will be issued and the Fan LED will be illuminated (but the transmitter continues to operate). The micro-controller will monitor its status and report it to the Main Controller.

4.5.5.4.3 Coolant Temperature - Inlet & Outlet

The Power Block Controller board monitors the liquid coolant temperature at the inlet and the outlet of the cabinet. The sensors output a voltage that is directly proportional to the temperature in degrees C. The micro module will monitor these readings and report to the Main Controller. The CPLD will monitor the output of both comparator circuits which are calibrated to trip when the coolant temperature exceeds 65oC (a GUI Warning is issued at 55ºC). If either of the coolant temperatures exceeds 65oC the transmitter will mute, but the pump module will be allowed to continue running. The most likely cause of this fault would be a loss of one or more fans (or AC power) to the heat exchanger.

4.5.5.4.4 Coolant Flow

The Power Block Controller board also monitors the coolant flow. The coolant flow sensor, mounted on the coolant outlet pipe, provides a pulsed output signal whose frequency is proportional to the amount of flow through the device. The micro then scales the frequency of the signal from the sensor to coolant flow in liters per minute (lpm). If the coolant flow drops below 50% for more than 5 seconds, the transmitter will switch pumps (only in optional dual pump systems). If after 5 more seconds the flow is still not sufficient the transmitter will be muted.

4.5.5.4.5 Leak Detector

A leak detector is installed inside the transmitter cabinet to detect if a cooling system leak has occurred. It is mounted in the bottom center of the cabinet. The Power Block Controller board will monitor this leak detector to alert the system should a leak occur. The micro-controller will monitor its status and report it to the main controller. A leak detection will cause the transmitter and the pump to be shut off.

4.5.6 Low Voltage Power Supplies (LVPS)

The standard cabinet configuration comes with two Low Voltage Power Supplies or LVPS. The supplies are located near the middle of the cabinet and are accessed from the rear of the transmitter. The outputs from the LVPS are connected to the Power Block Controller Board.

The outputs from the 2 supplies are diode OR’ed together on the Power Block Controller Board. Should one supply fail, the low voltage will still be available throughout the transmitter. The failure will be reported via CAN to the main controller in order to alert the transmitter operator.

The Power Block Controller Board also acts as a distribution point for low voltage to the rest of the transmitter. The outputs from the LVPS are:

• +7.5Vdc @ 100W (13.3A) - This voltage is used to drive all the logic contained on the various control boards throughout the Atlas transmitter. The 7.5 volt output will be regulated on each board with a linear regulator to step down the voltage to 5Vdc and/or 3.3Vdc as needed.

4.6 Cooling System

The Atlas ISDB-T liquid cooling system consists of:

a. Pump Module with dual pumps in main/standby mode for redundancy and the coolant reserve tank.

b. Heat exchanger (mounted outside).

c. Cooling plates or heatsinks in the transmitter.

d. Cooling system control panel which interfaces the transmitter control system and AC power to the pump module.

4.6.1 Pump Module

The pump module is a 50/50 glycol/water pump system with the following components:

a. Dual pumps used in a main/standby mode for redundancy.

b. An isolating valve on each pump and an electrical isolator switch for each pump to allow one pump to be changed while the other is still operating.

c. A reserve tank for the coolant.

d. Two (2) coolant level switches

1. Coolant Warning - Indicates low coolant level - Alarm only, system contin-ues to operate.

2. Coolant Fault - Tank is empty, system is shut off.

e. An in-line coolant strainer and a filter with isolating valves to allow the filter to be changed while the pump module is operating.

f. Output pressure gauge and coolant temperature gauge both visible from the front of the unit.

For the following refer to the Cooling System Electrical Diagram. The pump module receives its AC inputs from the cooling system control panel contactors K1 and K2. K1 activates Pump A while K2 activates Pump B. Each pump has an electrical isolator switch that can be used to remove AC from the pump for servicing. The pump status lines for the control panel pass through the 4th pole on the isolator switches S1 and S2 which prevents an active status LED on the control panel if the isolator switch is open. For detailed pump module and cooling system control information see "4.6.4 Pump Control Panel."

4.6.2 Heat Exchanger

The heat exchanger is a simple multiple fan radiator system divided into two control zones. Zone A contains the first fan which comes on at a specified coolant temperature. Zone B contains the second (and third, if so equipped) fan(s) which come on at a higher specified temperature. The heat exchanger receives AC for the fans from the AC mains distribution panel and should be equipped with separate fusing and an emergency disconnect box located near the heat exchanger unit. The heat exchanger has an electrical isolator switch which can be used to manually remove AC from the motors for servicing.

4.6.3 Transmitter Cold Plates

There are up to 10 cold plates in a single Atlas PA cabinet, depending on the number of PAs included. Eight (8) module cold plates which are physically mounted to the PA modules and must be removed with the module and two (2) cold plates to which the PA module combiner reject loads are mounted. The reject load cold plates are mounted inside the combiner.

NOTE:It is important to note that there are contactors mounted inside the box while the other small relays are mounted on the PC board. The wiring diagram shows dashed lines enclosing those parts not on the PC board (labeled Control Box).

4.6.4.1 Transmitter Interconnect

The pump control panel connects to the transmitter External I/O board. The X3 connector on the Pump Control Box is a pin for pin connection to the J12 connector on the External I/O board.

4.6.4.2 Front Panel Controls

The Pump Control Panel has the following controls:

a. Primary AC disconnect or Isolator switch, S1 - This disconnects the AC from the pump module. It also disconnects the single phase power to the step-down trans-former T1 which provides voltages to the pump control circuitry. The heat exchanger should be outfitted with a separate emergency disconnect switch. The heat exchanger also has an isolator switches in the heat exchanger unit.

b. Local/Remote Switches

1. Remote - Remote is the normal operating mode. Pressing the Remote but-ton puts the Cooling Controller into Remote mode. While in Remote mode, the transmitter will have control over the pumps and the pumps can be switched using the GUI. Pressing the pre-select buttons (Pump A or Pump B) will only determine what pump the Cooling Controller will switch to when switched to Local mode. If power is lost while in Remote Mode, the mode will be restored as remote when the power is restored.

2. Local - This button is used to put the Cooling Controller into Local mode. While in Local mode, the transmitter will not be able to switch pumps. The transmitter will only be able to enable or disable the pumps via the interlock signal. The Cooling Controller will switch to the pre-selected pump (determined by which button has been pressed, Pump A or Pump B) when the Local button is pressed. While in Local mode, the pumps can be switched using the cooling control panel pre-select buttons labelled Pump A or Pump B. If power is lost while in Local Mode, the mode will be restored as local when the power is restored.

3. Pump A - This button is used to pre-select Pump A. When the cooling controller is switched from Remote to Local control, the unit will automatically switch to Pump A.

Section 4 Theory of Operation ATLAS ISDB-T

+24VDC – While this would lead one to believe that the voltage after rectification and filtering would be a nominal +24VDC, the fact is that the voltage will be between +25.4VDC and 32.4VDC. The maximum value is set to ensure that the power dissipated in the series resistance of the contactor driver circuit does not exceed the rating of 1W per resistor and to ensure that the input voltage to the 5VDC power supply does not exceed its maximum input voltage. The minimum value is set to ensure that the current flow through the contactor coil is above 150mA.

+5VDC – This voltage is produced by using a switching power supply. The minimum input voltage for this circuit is 18.2 VDC and the maximum is 32.5 VDC. This power supply is capable of handling a load as high as 7.5W.

+3.3VDC – This voltage is produce by using a simple 3.3v LDO regulator. The input is from the +5v power supply. It’s capable of handling a load as high as 1W.

4.6.4.8 Logic

CPLD – The purpose of the CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) is to consolidate a large number of small logic circuits into a single package. The logic determines which buttons are being pressed, determines what LED’s are to be lit, deciphers the commands from the transmitter, informs the transmitter of any coolant faults, determines whether it’s in Local or Remote mode and what mode it will start up in after a power reset, determines what pumps are to run after a power reset, determines which pump to turn on, and determines when the heat exchangers are to be turned on.

RELAYS – There are 6 relays on the Cooling Controller board. Two relays are latching relays. The remaining relays are general purpose relays. They all are +5V relays. The general purpose relays are used to switch the control voltages for the heat exchangers and to isolate the CPLD from the transmitter for the Coolant Fault and Coolant Low signals. The latching relays are to assist the CPLD to determine what state it was in prior to a power reset.

4.6.4.9 Cooling Controller Board Circuit Descriptions

The following are descriptions of key circuits on the Cooling Controller board. They are each followed by a figure showing a sample circuit.

4.6.4.9.1 PUMP/MODE LATCH CIRCUITS

The latch circuits for the pumps and the mode work the same. They were designed to retain the pump and mode settings in case of power outage. Once the power is restored,

4-46 888-2684-001 2/24/09 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 159: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 4 Theory of OperationATLAS ISDB-T

the CPLD will read the latch signals and initialize itself to the state it was in prior to the power loss.

The circuit is an H-bridge circuit using IGFET transistors acting as switches. The transistors are controlled by the signals that turn on the status Led’s. The pump latch circuit is controlled by the Pump A ON and the Pump B ON status LED signals. The mode latch circuit is controlled by the Local and the Remote status LED signals. Only one transistor can be on at a time due to the logic in the CPLD. The transistors control the direction of current flow through the coil of the latching relay.

In Figure 4-14, the latching relay is shown in a ‘reset’ state. This means that Pump A is latched on. To latch pump B, the relay must be put into the ‘set’ state. This is done when the Pump B ON LED is lit. The signal that turns on that LED will turn on Q12. Current will then flow from the +5V power supply, through R81 to Ground through Q12.

To latch pump A, Q12 must be turned off and Q11 must be turned on. This will cause the current to flow the other direction placing the relay in a ‘reset’ state.

The mode latch circuit works exactly the same way. The only difference is that the mode latch circuit also controls /REMOTE_SELECT_OUT which is used to let the transmitter know what is the current mode of the Cooling Controller.

4.6.4.9.2 PUMP CONTACTOR DRIVER CIRCUIT

The purpose of this circuit shown in Figure 4-14 on page 4-47 is to ensure that the desired pump is turned on and that only one pump can be on at a time. The circuit can be divided into three sub circuits: control logic, pump A driver, and pump B driver.

The control logic circuit is used to ensure that only one pump is on at a time. If pump A is selected, then PUMP_A_ON will be a ‘1’ and PUMP_B_ON will be a ‘0’. The PUMP_A_ON signal is sent to the pump A AND gate. It is also inverted before being sent to the pump B AND gate. The PUMP_B_ON signal will be sent to the pump B AND gate and will also be inverted before being sent to the pump A AND gate. This will put ‘1’s on both inputs of the pump A AND gate and ‘0’s on both inputs of the pump B AND gate.

The pump A AND gate will output a ‘1’ to be sent to a circuit formed by Q3 and Q2. The output of this circuit will be approximately 15 volts, limited by the zener. This is to ensure that Vgs of Q1 does not exceed its maximum rating. With approximately 15v on the gate, Q1 will turn on and saturate to allow maximum current to flow. This will cause current to flow through the coil of K1. This current is limited by the coil resistance and the series resistance. The series resistance consists of four 267 1W resistors that are in parallel to create essentially a 67 4W resistor. The +24V power supply will actually be somewhere between 25V and 33V depending on which AC power source is used at the transmitter site and how the transformer T1 in the Cooling Control box is tapped. Based on this power supply, the series resistance and the coil resistance of the Contactor, the current flow through the contactor coil will be between 170mA and 225mA. This will energize the contactor allowing pump A to be turned on.

The pump B AND gate will output a ‘0’ to be sent to a circuit formed by Q6 and Q5. The output of this circuit will be approximately 0 volts since Q6 will be turned on effectively placing ground potential on the gate of Q4. This will force Q4 off, stopping current flow through the coil of the pump B contactor. This will cause pump B to turn off.

Figure 4-15 Cooling Control Board Pump Contactor Drivers

4.6.4.9.3 PUMP STATUS SIGNAL CHAIN

The purpose of the pump status LED is to show that a pump should be running. This can only happen when the contactor is closed and the service switch is in its normal operation position. When this is true, a path for current flow will exist. The current source is from the +15V power supply located on the External I/O board in the transmitter. The current will flow through an opto-coupler and shunt resistor on the External I/O board. The opto-coupler is used to inform the transmitter that the pump should be running. The current flows past the service switch and the closed contacts of the pump contactor. It then flows through another opto-coupler and shunt resistor on the Cooling Controller board. This opto-coupler lets the CPLD know that the pump should be running. The CPLD will then light either the Pump A ON or the Pump B ON status LED’s depending on which contactor is energized.

4.6.4.9.4 HEAT EXCHANGER DRIVER CIRCUITS

There is a possibility of having up to two heat exchangers. Each heat exchanger will have two contactors in them. Each contactor will control a zone within the heat exchanger. Zone A will be a single fan. Zone B will be the two remaining fans.

If a pump is running, the CPLD will make all of the heat exchanger control signals active. HEAT_EX_1_ON will energize K1 by turning Q7 on. HEAT_EX_2_ON will energize K2 by turning Q8 on. Having K1 or K2 energized does not mean that the fans will be running. There are thermocouples in series with the contactor coils. The thermocouple in Zone A closes when coolant temperature reaches 32C. The thermocouple in Zone A closes when coolant temperatures reaches 38C. Once the thermocouples are closed and the relays are energized, current will then be able to flow through the contactor coil. This will turn on the fan by energizing the contactor.

4.6.4.9.5 HEAT EXCHANGER STATUS CHAIN

The reason for dividing the heat exchangers into two zones is to insure that the only status that can be received is from the contactor’s fourth contact. Because of this, the front panel will use the following status LED’s: EXCHANGER 1 ZONE A ON, EXCHANGER 1 ZONE B ON, EXCHANGER 2 ZONE A ON, and EXCHANGER 2 ZONE B ON.

When a contactor is energized, its contacts will close. This will complete a current path that starts at the +5V power supply on the Cooling Controller board. This current will flow out to the contactor located in the heat exchanger. It will go through the closed contacts and be returned to an opto-coupler back on the Cooling Controller board. This will turn on the transistor in the opto-coupler pulling the status line for that fan down to ground. The CPLD will then see the status line is now in its active state and will then light the desired status LED.

5.2.1 PA Module Removal

PA Modules can be removed (or installed) while the transmitter is turned on, but the module needs to be shut off via the GUI (Graphical User Interface) first.

STEP 1 Prepare a clear path to a location to put the module once it has been removed.

STEP 2 To initiate the removal process, navigate to the Power Amp Service screen in Figure 5-1, using the key presses shown below. This screen allows you to disable the module by pressing the individual module button on the touchscreen (Figure 5-2 shows the module numbers and location). This will mask any faults that could be generated by the following steps.

STEP 5 Put on the protective gloves provided. Turn the top hose coolant valve to the off position first, then turn the bottom hose coolant valve to the off position.

STEP 6 Disconnect the quick coupler connecting the top hose to the back of the module first, then disconnect the quick coupler connecting the bottom hose to the back of the module. Have a rag or towel handy to clean up any drips from the module or hoses.

! CAUTION:DO NOT LET THE MODULE SWING DOWN WHEN PULLING THE MODULE OUT WITH THE FRONT HANDLE. THIS COULD CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE CONNECTORS ON THE BACK OF THE MODULE.

STEP 7 Grab the handle on the front of the module, press down the latch and slide the module out about halfway. With the other hand, grab the handle located in the middle of the module. Then press the 2nd (halfway) latch and, using proper lifting techniques, slide out the module while lifting.

5.2.2 Installing a PA Module

To install a PA Module simply reverse the above procedure, noting below suggestions

NOTE:In some cases it has been noted that it can be difficult to connect the coolant hoses to a hot PA module. Reconnecting the coolant hoses in the proper reverse order - reconnecting the bottom hose first and opening its valve, then connecting the top hose and opening its valve - should help. If the connection is still difficult, simply allow the module to cool sufficiently before reconnecting the coolant hoses.

NOTE:It is helpful to have an assistant maintain pressure on the module from the front of the transmitter as the coolant hoses are being attached in the rear.

Reapply pressure from the front of module. To make sure the connections are securely made, return to the front of the transmitter and again press each of the modules toward the rear.

Figure 5-2 PA Module and Circuit Breaker Locations

Once the PA Module is back in place, coolant flow restored, its circuit breaker turned on, and it has been enabled via the GUI, the phasing will need to be checked and possibly adjusted. Since only one module has been changed, simply go to the PA Reject Service screen in Figure 5-4, and note the bargraph and numerical reading above the number of the new module. The numerical value above the module number indicates the reject load temperature. For example, a display of 0236 would indicate a reject load temperature of 23.6 degrees C. A properly phased pair of modules would indicate a reject load temperature that is approximately 3 degrees C. above coolant temperature. If the temperature is approximately 3 degrees above coolant temperature then the phasing is OK and no further adjustment is necessary. However, if the reading is more than 3 degrees above the water temperature, then press the button with the PA Module number on it. Now use the Phase Adjust +/- buttons to get the temperature reading above the button, to a value that is as low as possible (approximately 3 degrees above the coolant temperature). For a complete phasing procedure see "5.4 PA Module Phasing".

5.2.3 Operation With Inoperative PA Modules

The PA module reject loads, located inside the module combiner, are sized with enough margin to allow operation under any imbalance condition that may be encountered, with only one acception. In cases where four consecutive PA modules (1 thru 4 or 5 thru 8) are off or missing the reject load in the final stage of the combiner will see maximum power. The transmitter will continue to operate in this condition for for one minute before the transmitter shuts down to protect the combiner reject loads.

NOTE:When four consecutive PA modules are inoperative they will need to be reposi-tioned so that there are no longer four failed modules in either postions 1 thru 4 or 5 thru 8. Any combination of four failed modules is acceptable except for locat-ing them all in 1 thru 4 or 5 thru 8.

5.3 PA Module Auto Bias Procedure

Due to natural drift of LDMOS devices with age, periodic re-biasing of the pallets within the modules is recommended. However, this procedure has been automated and is done with the press of a button, and only takes a few seconds. The schedule for this procedure is as follows:

• Once every 2 weeks for the first 2 months of operation

• Once a month for the next 4 months after that

• Once every 6 months of operation from then on

NOTE:Transmitter carrier power will be removed for about 5 seconds. However, lock up times on receivers may be as much as 3-5 seconds after that. Therefore, it is not recommended that this procedure be done during regular broadcast hours.

To perform the Auto Bias of the PA Modules, you will need to access the screen shown in Figure 5-3. The quickest way to get there is to press the Power Amp quick button to the right of the GUI, then press - PA SERVICE - PA MOD ALIGN.

Figure 5-3 Auto Bias, PA Module Alignment Screen

To activate the Re-Bias procedure simply press the Re-Bias button on the screen. Please be sure to read the Warning note on the screen above. And remember, even though the carrier will only be removed for about 5 seconds, many receivers may take several more seconds to re-gain lock and start decoding pictures again. In other words, this procedure should only be done when an interruption of service is not critical.

5.4 PA Module Phasing

Due to the use of a Wilkinson combining system, each pair or group of modules is being combined with an in phase relationship. Except for the 6-way combiner, this requires adjustment to the phase of individual modules and module groups while monitoring temperature at each of the reject loads and adjusting for a minimum reading. Once this is done at a particular operating frequency, it should not need to be re-adjusted except on an annual or semi-annual basis to optimize the transmitter efficiency. Access Figure 5-4 as follows:

NOTE:Before adjusting the module phasing to reduce the reject load temperatures, check the power output of the PA modules to make sure they are all producing approximately the same power level.

The temperatures from each of the combiner reject loads are displayed in degrees centigreade below the bar graphs in Figure 5-4. A displayed value of 0294 would correspond to a 29.4 degrees centigrade temperature.

5.4.1 Phase Control Voltage

Each module has a Phase number at the bottom of the screen which has a range of 0000 to 1023, with 0512 being the ideal. This is a reference number which is relative to the phase control voltage used to adjust the module phase. This number will change as the Phase Adjust +/- buttons are pressed. There is no correct value for this number. It is just a reference to allow the operator to see the changes being made and how far he has gone in a particular direction. However, it is always going to be better if the number is close to center to give maximum adjustment range when needed. Final phasing is based on reject load temperature, not the phase number.

5.4.2 Module Phasing Procedure

NOTE:Steps 1 through 5 are not applicable to the 6-way module combiner of a 6 module cabinet. However, STEP 6 may be performed on cabinets equipped with the 6-way module combiner.

GOAL: Get all reject load temperature readings as low as possible ( typically 3 degrees C. higher than coolant temperature). (A secondary goal would be to leave all modules as close to a 0512 phase reading as possible, although this is not required and will not actually improve performance).

Section 5 Maintenance and Alignments ATLAS ISDB-T

STEP 1 Start on the left side with buttons 1 or 2 and work your way to the right. Changing module phasing will affect the phasing of the module groupings further to the right.

STEP 2 Check the tempeature reading just below the bargraph. Adjust the +/- buttons until the temperature value reaches a minimum level then go on to the next one.

STEP 3 Move to the right and press one of the buttons below that reading, such as the #4 module button shown here or you could choose the #3 (either one will work). Note the phase numbers at the bottom of the screen before you start.

STEP 4 Press the +/- phase adjust buttons to try to lower the temperature reading (and bargraph level). Tap for fine adjustment or press and hold the button for faster action. Go back an forth between the 2 buttons under the bargraph and try to minimize the reading using the phase adjust buttons. Try to keep the DAC readings at the bottom of the screen close to or centered around 0512.

STEP 5 Once the individual modules are phased (1-8), keep working to the right, phasing the pairs and the groups of four. Repeat STEP 3 and STEP 4 until each temperature value is minimized.

STEP 6 For multi-cabinet models: Once a cabinet phasing procedure has been completed sucessfully, select NEXT CAB to perform the phasing procedure on the next cabinet by repeating above steps. The Next CAB and PREV CAB buttons will be visible in multi cabinet models to the right of the PA REJECT SERVICE screen shown in Figure 5-4If a 3rd cabinet is present, repeat the above steps to optimize its PA module phasing. Once all cabinets are individually phase balanced, select CAB COMB (button on the right hand side of the PA Reject Service screen) to balance the outputs, minimizing the combiner reject load reading, using the same method as previous steps.

Section 5 Maintenance and AlignmentsATLAS ISDB-T

The Atlas Series transmitter features auto phasing to minimize power to module reject loads. Auto phasing is initiated by pressing the auto phase button located to the right of the +/- buttons on the PA Reject Service Screen shown in Figure 5-4.

STEP 1 Make sure all PA modules are operating and have approximately the same power from each module.

STEP 2 Press the auto phase OFF button on the PA Reject Service screen. Once the OFF button is pressed it will change to say ON and auto phasing will be initiated. In addition to seeing the ON button the user will note that the PA module phase control voltages (DAC values on the bottom of the screen) will all change to read 0512. As the phasing progresses the DAC values will begin to change and the module reject load temperatures will begin to vary. Eventually, the reject load temperatures will begin to reduce.

STEP 3 The auto phase process will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Upon completion the ON button will change to OFF indicating that the phasing process has finished. Upon completion the temperature of the reject loads should be minimized to a level that is approximately 3 degrees C. above the temperature of the coolant.

STEP 4 For multicabinet transmitters the auto module phasing must be completed for each cabinet. Once all cabinets are individually auto phase balanced, select CAB COMB (button on the right hand side of the PA Reject Service screen) to manually balance the cabinet outputs, minimizing the combiner reject load reading, using the same method as descubed in the 5.4.2 Module Phasing Procedure. Auto phasing is not available for cabinet phasing.

5.5 Power Calibrations

Other than for installation, power calibration should only be required if the controller containing the calibration settings is replaced, or if a directional coupler is replaced. However, calibration is very simple and can be done whenever it is deemed necessary. The only required power calibrations are:

a. Total System Forward Power (after filters)

b. PA Cabinet Forward Power (before filters)

c. Total System Reflected Power (after filters)

d. PA Cabinet Reflected Power (before filters)

NOTE:Be sure to enter the Incident coupler’s offset into the meter.

5.5.2 Reflected Calibrate

This procedure establishes the values used to calculate the VSWR protection thresholds for Foldback and Fault events. These values are based on the "Nominal Power Output" value entered into the System Setup screen in Figure 3-31 on page 3-31.

• The foldback level (based on Total power) is calculated using a VSWR = 1.4:1. Therefore the actual foldback power can be calculated as:

To determine the Nominal Output factor:

Foldback Power = Nominal Power Output x 0.0278

• The fault threshold (trips, based on Total or Cabinet reflected power) is calculated using a VSWR = 1.9:1. Therefore the actual fault threshold can be calculated as:

VSWR Fault Threshold = Nominal Power Output x 0.0963

5.6 Miscellaneous Maintenance

5.6.1 Cooling System Checks

Inspect the cooling system monthly for coolant leaks and check the coolant level.

The heat exchanger fins and pump motor housing fins should be examined for dust and dirt buildup once a month. Clean as necessary with water hose or compressed air.

Every three months select the opposite Pump to run in order to keep both pumps in a proper working state. Also, this is a good time to manually operate all valves to assure proper movement and closure.

NOTE:See the cooling system drawings, manufacturers component manuals and the cooling system Technical Manual for details.

5.6.1.1 Pump Module Strainer Cleaning

The strainer is shown in Figure 5-9. Monthly inspection and cleaning of the cooling system strainer is recommended. The strainer must be disassembled and cleaned when the transmitter is off the air since the coolant flow must be disrupted prior to opening the strainer assembly. Follow the steps that follow to clean the strainer:

a. Turn off the transmitter and pump.

b. Remove strainer housing cap

NOTE:A small amount of liquid will still be present in the pipe and strainer housing, and a receptacle will be necessary to contain the spillage.

c. Pull strainer

d. Inspect and clean strainer as needed

e. Replace the strainer, and perform the above steps in reverse order to restore the cooling system to normal operation

6.1 Introduction

This section contains diagnostic and troubleshooting information for the Atlas Series UHF transmitter. Included is a complete description of all faults which can be displayed via the transmitter front panel display or GUI (Graphical User Interface). Due to the complexity of the control system and the extensive use of surface mount components, the scope of this diagnostics section is to isolate the problem down to a PC board or module which can then be easily exchanged.

The GUI buttons and icons use a symbol and color code system. Some examples are given below:

a. Green with a 1 (or bar) - ON and operating normally.

b. Dark Gray with an O - Shut off (not faulted off)

c. Light Gray - "Grayed Out" - Not communicating or not available.

d. Yellow - Warning - A non-critical sub-system or parameter is out of tolerance and should be addressed by engineering personnel.

1. Yellow with a 1 (or bar) - Warning condition - Still on

2. Yellow with an O (circle) - Warning condition - Shut off

e. Red - Critical fault - This could be a sub-system fault in which the sub-system is muted or shut off (such as a PA Module) or could be a system level fault which could mute or shut the transmitter off.

1. Red or Red with an O (circle) - Critical Fault - Shut module off

When a fault occurs one of the LED’s next to the five Quick buttons will illuminate RED. To track down the cause of the fault, press the quick button. This will take you to one of the 5 main menu screens. There will be a red button or icon on this screen which will allow you to track the problem deeper into the system. The other option is to start

by going to the System Log and seeing what faults have occurred and in what order. If you are not familiar with GUI navigation, refer to Section 3.

6.2 GUI System Log

The GUI contains a System Log which is a listing of all faults which have occurred. To see the System Log press SYSTEM then SYSTEM LOG. This will bring up the screen in Figure 6-1. The System Log gives the following information:

a. # - This gives the number of the fault. There can be up to 99 faults in the log, then it is FIFO (First IN, First Out)

b. Fault Type - This is simply the name of the fault.

c. Time and Date - This gives the exact time and date that the fault occurred.

d. Active or Inactive - If the fault is highlighted in red, it is still active and cannot be cleared. If the fault is not highlighted, then the fault is gone and can be cleared if so desired.

Function Buttons:

a. RESET - Will erase all inactive faults in the log.

b. NEXT and PREV - These buttons allow you to scroll through the entire fault list if necessary.

c. BACK - Will take you back to the System main menu.

NOTE:Tables 6-1 and 6-2 give a complete listing of all possible faults in the Atlas trans-mitter. They also give a brief description of each fault, the trip point and the transmitter action taken in response to the fault.

6.3 Atlas Three-Strike Fault Actions

6.3.1 Reflected Power Faults

The RFU Controller monitors reflected power at the Cabinet output and at the System output. When the reflected power level (typically 10% of the rated power or a 1.9:1 VSWR) is exceeded the RFU Controller generates an RF MUTE. If after three attempts to restart (three strikes) subsequent faults occur, the transmitter will turn OFF and operator intervention will be needed to turn it back ON. The three strike counter resets after 30 seconds with no faults.

Reflected power faults that initiate a three strike procedure are:

• Cabinet Reflected Power

• System Reflected Power

6.3.2 Module Faults

Should a module failure occur (say a power glitch) the PA Module Controller will use a three-strike action on its own –independently from the transmitter’s Main Controller. This action will cause a reset of only the PA Module experiencing the fault and not the entire transmitter.

2/24/09 888-2684-001 6-3 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 194: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Section 6 Diagnostics ATLAS ISDB-T

The module three strike policy is:

• The PA Module Controller will try to restart the module three times within a 10 secondwindow. After that, if a fault is still present, the module will be turned OFF until it receives the restart command from the Main Controller (ON Command).

• There is a 3 second delay between restart attempts.

• The fault-strike restart process is the same as the system restart command, all of the module faults will be reset.

• During the 10 second three-strike window, any of the nuisance faults will be reported to the Main Controller.

These are the module faults which will be allowed three strikes:

• Over Voltage Pallet

• Under Voltage Pallet

• Over Temperature Module Controller

• Over Current Module Driver

• Over Temperature Pre-driver Heatsink

• Over Drive Module RF Input

• Over Drive Module RF Output

• Under Current Phase and Gain Board

• Over Current Phase and Gain Board

• Over Currrent Pallet

• Under Current Pre-Driver

• Over Current Pre-Driver

• Over Temperature Power Supply Board

• Low Voltage Output DC Converter

• Short Circuit

• High Module Reflected Power

a.1 Suggested Cutting And Soldering Procedure

The purpose for this procedure is to provide guidelines for field cutting and soldering of RF transmission line used to interconnect the transmitter to the RF system.

Try to cut and flange the longest pieces first. Complete one run at a time in order to avoid accumulated errors. (i.e.: Cut, solder, and hang line from antenna port of Bandpass filter to patch panel. Then cut, solder, and hang line from the Amplifier output to the input port of the Bandpass filter.)

Listed in Table 0-1 are some tools and materials that have proven effective for RF Feed Line Construction.

a.2 Line Cutback and Flange Soldering Procedure

1. Determine the flange-face to flange-face length of the transmission line run needed. If the run includes an elbow, see Figure 0-1 to determine the elbow length.

2. Subtract twice the cutback dimension of the flange. This dimension varies with flange manufacturer. See Figure 0-2.

3. Using one of the suggested methods for cutting the line given in Section a.3, cut the outer conductor to the length just calculated.

4. If holes in the outer conductor are needed for directional couplers, tuning paddles, etc. they should be added now with the holes properly deburred.

5. Using the suggested techniques for installing the flanges given in Section a.4, solder a flange to each end of the outer conductor.

6. Measure the flange-face to flange-face dimension after soldering to confirm the prop-er length and to determine the initial length of the inner conductor.

7. Determine the length of the inner conductor by using the flange-face to flange-face dimension of the outer conductor and subtracting the dimension of the anchor connec-tor (bullet) shown in Figure 0-3. This dimension determines the proper cutback of the inner conductor for both ends of the line at the same time. do not double this dimen-sion when subtracting from the outer conductor length.

8. Cut the inner conductor and debur the cut edges.

9. Ensure the inside of the outer conductor is clean; then insert the inner conductor. The line is ready to install.

a.3 Cutting The Transmission Line

A square smooth cut is required. Several methods, listed below, may be used with the choice depending on tools and labor available.

1. Method 1. A hand hack saw and cast iron cutting guide are a good combination for making a cut with a minimum of tools for one or two pieces, but can be very labor in-tensive for putting up an entire system. See Figure 0-4.

2. Method 2. Hand Band Saw. These popular saws can be rented or purchased. See Fig-ure 0-5.

3. Method 3. Swing Arm Band Saw. This is a good way to go if one can be rented or borrowed. Many pipe fitters and electrical contractors own them. If the saw has an au-tomatic feed, cut slowly. It is critical that the support saw horses be made level with the saw. Test cuts should first be made using scrap pipe or a wood 4x4 to verify that the blade is not creeping and the saw is in alignment. See Figure 0-6.

CautionDO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE VISE USED WITH THESE SAWS. IT WILL BE DIFFICULT TO PUT THE FLANGE ON AN OUT OF ROUND PIPE.

The amount of cutback vary for differenttransmission line manufacturers.

Page 235: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Appendix-a Cutting & Soldering ATLAS ISDB-T

4. Method 4. Tubing Cutter. This is generally not recommended. Many cuts end up with crimped ends due to dull cutters or trying to cut too fast. Use with caution. Avoid if possible unless someone is available that has had a lot of experience using a tubing cutter on this type of installation. See Figure 0-7.

5. Method 5. Cut Off Saw. These saws are similar to radial arm saws. It is rare to find one big enough to cut 6-1/8” line. The set up is similar to the swing arm band saw. See Figure 0-6.

a.4 Soldering Flanges

Transmission line flanges that are supplied with the optional transmission line kit are the silver solder type. Although the attachment of this type of flange may require more care and skill than the soft solder type, it has been found that the silver soldered flange provides much greater reliability. The services of a steam fitter or plumber may be helpful if personnel are not available that are experienced with silver soldering.

1.4.1 Soldering Procedure

1. The line should be free of burrs. The outer corner may be beveled slightly to make as-sembly of flange easier. See Figure 0-8.

2. Emery cloth should be used to clean the outside of the line where it will meet the flange. Also clean the inner surface of the flange with emery cloth.

3. Insert the solder ring into the groove on the flange. If solder rings are not included with the flange, they can be made from 0.062-inch diameter silver solder wire (30-45% silver).

4. Apply a thin coat of flux to the line and to the flange.

5. Slide the flange onto the end of the outer conductor.

WarningSKIN BURN HAZARD. TEMPERATURE OF THE HEATED LINE IN THE FOLLOWING STEPS IS QUITE HIGH AND PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN TO AVOID CONTACT WITH EXPOSED SKIN.

6. Stand the line on end (vertical) for soldering (flange to be soldered pointing down). Ensure that the flange remains square with the outer conductor.

7. Using a #3 or #4 torch tip, heat the entire circumference of the line and flange. Keep the torch moving and heat 2 or 3 inches of the line/flange at a time. Aim the torch at the copper just above the crack between the flange and the line. This will minimize the need for fill solder. If the brass flange is heated more than the copper line, the flange will expand and create an unnecessary gap to fill with solder. Use caution. There is a fine line between melting the solder and melting the brass flange or burning a hole in the copper. The solder will pull up into the joint from the solder ring by cap-illary action. Once it starts to flow, do not stop until the entire circumference of the joint has solder appearing in it. If the solder from the internal solder ring does not “wick up” and become visible at the joint after a few minutes, a small amount of sol-der can be applied to the joint to enhance the heat transfer. See Figure 0-9.

a.5 Cleaning The Soldered Joint

Vigorous scrubbing with a wire brush and steel wool will remove torch black with good results. In addition, cleaning with an acid solution can make this job easier. The procedure is as follows:

WarningMURIATIC ACID USED IN THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE IS HAZARDOUS. USE EYE AND SKIN PROTECTION WHEN HANDLING OR MIXING. KEEP AN EXTRA BOX OF BAKING SODA HANDY FOR FIRST AID OR TO NEUTRALIZE SPILLS. PERFORM THE PROCEDURES OUTDOORS IF POSSIBLE. IF THE WORK MUST BE DONE INDOORS, WORK ONLY IN WELL VENTILATED AREA.

Page 240: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Appendix-a Cutting & Soldering ATLAS ISDB-T

WarningIN THE FOLLOWING MIXING PROCEDURE, ALWAYS PUT WATER IN THE CON-TAINER FIRST AND THEN ADD ACID TO THE WATER. ADDING WATER TO A CON-TAINER OF ACID MAY RESULT IN A VIOLENT & DANGEROUS REACTION.

1. Prepare three plastic 5 gallon buckets as follows:

A. Bucket #1 - Water

B. Bucket #2 - One quart muriatic acid in four gallons of water (See Warnings Above)

C. Bucket #3 - One pound baking soda in five gallons of water

2. After soldering is finished, dip the end of the line in the water to cool.

3. Set the cooled end of the line into the acid-water mixture for 5-10 minutes. This will loosen the film and brighten the silver.

4. Immerse the end of the line into the soda solution. This will stop the action of the ac-id.

5. Use a Scotch Bright pad or steel wool to scrub off the remaining torch black.

6. If the flux scale is particularly stubborn repeat the process.

7. When finished, rinse thoroughly when done with water and dry the line before assem-bling.

1.5.1 Alternate Cleaning Method

The following is an alternate procedure to clean the soldered transmission line. The following materials are needed.

• Water and Hose

• Small Paint Brush

• Rubber Gloves

• Scotch Brite Pad or BBQ Grill Cleaning Pad With Handle

• Naval Jelly (or equivalent rust remover).

WarningNAVAL JELLY CONTAINS PHOSPHORIC ACID AND CAN BE DANGEROUS IF IT COMES IN CONTACT WITH SKIN OR EYES OR IF IT IS SWALLOWED. READ AND FOLLOW THE PRECAUTIONS AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES ON THE NAVAL JELLY CONTAINER BEFORE USING.

1. After soldering the flange, dip the end of the line into water or spray it with a hose un-til it is cool.

Page 241: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Appendix-a Cutting & Soldering ATLAS ISDB-T

2. Using a small paint brush, apply a coating of Naval Jelly to the torch black and flux scale on the outside and inside of the line. Let the Naval Jelly set from 10 to 20 min-utes.

3. Scrub the line with Scotch Brite or the BBQ Grill pad to loosen the torch black and flux scale.

4. Flush with water until the Naval Jelly residue is gone.

5. Repeat the process until all the torch black and flux scale is removed.

The first application of the Naval Jelly will remove the torch black and some of the flux scale. Normally, if vigorous scrubbing is done, repeating the process a second time will completely clean the line.

SINCE THE WATER USED TO MIX WITH THE GLYCOL WILL AFFECT THE CORROSIVITY OF THE MIXTURE, ONLY HIGH QUALITY DEMINERALIZED WATER THAT HAS BEEN DISTILLED, DEIONIZED OR REVERSE-OSMOSIS PROCESSED SHOULD BE USED. THIS WATER MUST HAVE A CONDUCTIVITY OF NO MORE THAN 5 MICROSIEMENS (OR HAVE A RESISTANCE OF LESS THAN 200K OHMS.

The quality of water mixed with glycol concentrate can impact system performance. Poor quality water can cause scale, sediment deposits, or sludge throughout the cooling which will reduce heat transfer efficiency. Poor quality water can also cause damage to the system by depleting the corrosion inhibitor and can lead to the creation of a number of corrosions including general and acidic attack corrosions.

Good quality processed water contains:

• Less than 50 ppm of calcium

• Less than 50 ppm of magnesium

• Less than 100 ppm (5 grains) of total hardness

• Less than 25 ppm of chloride

• Less than 25 ppm of sulfate

b.2 Plumbing System Installation

B.0.1 Materials needed

• Mapp gas torch set

• Extra Mapp gas tanks

• Welders mask or goggles

• Tubing cutter for 2.5 inch tubing (a hacksaw may be used instead of the tubing cutter)

• Flux (Stay Clean Flux) or equivalent (Harris part number 086 0004 040; one 16 oz. bottle provided with plumbing kit)

• Soft silver solder (96.5% tin; 3.5% silver) such as Aladdin #450 (Harris part number 086 0004 038) is needed. Three 1 lb. rolls of 1/16 inch soft silver solder is supplied with plumbing kit. 1/8 inch silver solder (Harris part number 086-0004-047) is also available.

• Wire brush and rags

• Water hose

• Thread rod, angle iron or channel and hangers needed to support the plumbing

• Tubing cutter or a hack saw (always de-bur the line (remove any rough points or flared-in edges at the cut after cutting)

Warning

TEMPERATURE OF THE HEATED LINE IN THE FOLLOWING STEPS IS QUITE HIGH. PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN TO AVOID CONTACT WITH EXPOSED SKIN.

b.2.1 Pipe Sizing and Routing

If a typical system layout is not used, the typical plumbing layout should still be consulted for pipe size information and connection details and techniques at the amplifier cabinets, RF loads, pump module and outside heat exchanger. A custom plumbing installation must not unduly restrict flow rates or change the design of the cooling system. Locate the plumbing so that access to transmitter system components is not restricted.

NOTE:Pipes must be sized no smaller than shown on the typical plumbing layout draw-ing. Their routing should minimize turns and long runs.

2/24/09 888-2684-001 b-3 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 246: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Appendix-b Cooling System Help ATLAS ISDB-T

If additional amplifier cabinets are to be added to the system in the future, consider these plans when sizing and laying out the cooling system. Doing so now may slightly increase the installation cost, but will greatly lower the cost of conversion later.

The plumbing lines must be type “M” hard drawn copper with soft silver soldered joints (96.5% Tin, 3.5% Silver; Aladdin #450 silver solder or equivalent). An adequate amount of soft silver solder (Harris part 086-0004-038) is supplied with the plumbing kit. Good silver brazed joints are acceptable but not required. A poorly done brazed joint is much harder to repair than a soft silver solder joint.

b.2.2 Standard Coolant Plumbing Practices

Good plumbing equipment installation practice is required to ensure system integrity. Appropriately measured, cut, deburred, supported and soldered copper pipe sections, facilitate mechanical integrity of the coolant transportation system. The “glue” that holds the system together is quality soldering.

This process includes the need to condition all surfaces to be soldered by thorough cleaning with emery cloth or a non-sudsing scouring pad, with an even application of flux, liquid flux being preferred. This applies to all common surfaces of plumbing fittings and straight pipe sections. Any improperly cleaned and poorly fluxed surfaces, either one or both, will not allow the solder to flow properly for continuous adherence of the solder to the two surfaces being soldered. After cleaning and fluxing, a continuous and evenly distributed application of heat without overheating will result in an evenly distributed flow of solder between the surfaces being soldered for a plumbed system that does not leak. Remember that solder flows from a colder surface to a hotter surface no matter the orientation of the surfaces being soldered.

Since considerable heat is necessary to make the solder flow, some torch black and flaking may develop inside the pipe. Before hanging the line, it is recommended that a hose and wire brush or rag be used to clean and flush the inside of the line where possible. It is also recommended to wash the flux off the final soldered joint to prevent future tarnishing.

NOTE:Keep in mind that an over application of solder can result in solder balls falling in to the associated piping with the possibility of water flow restriction and/or blockage. Also, an under application of solder can result in water leakage paths between the common surfaces of the fitting being soldered.

Propane or Mapp gas is the recommended fuel for soldering copper plumbing pieces. These gasses are available in small metallic bottles that mate directly to appropriate torches. Also, a “Turbo Torch” or equivalent with appropriately sized regulator and hose combination can be used with larger gas tanks (large cooking stove tank). If these

b-4 888-2684-001 2/24/09 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 247: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Appendix-b Cooling System HelpATLAS ISDB-T

gas sources are not available, use of acetylene gas with an acetylene only torch is acceptable. In any event, only skilled plumbing and soldering practitioners, knowledgeable of the specific soldering equipment being used, should perform the required work.

NOTE:A soldering combination of silver bearing solder, i.e. Harris (not Harris Broad-cast) Stay-Brite R (086-0004-038), and “Stay Clean” liquid soldering and tinning flux (086-0004-040) or equivalent, is recommended. Also, pipe thread joints should be conditioned with Teflon tape (299-0018-000) and a thin film applica-tion of a smooth, non-hardening thread sealing, compound with integrated Teflon is recommended, i.e. Locktite #565, or “Gasoila” (690-0017-000), prior to mat-ing any two threaded pieces together.

When connecting threaded plumbing fittings, use a layer of teflon tape and some pipe dope on the male fittings. Do not use pipe dope on the female fittings because it will bunch up on the inside surface of the plumbing and interfere with normal cooling system operation. It is difficult to remove excess pipe dope from inside the system.

A final comment about the installation process centers around the need for the discipline of personnel in and around the cooling system installation area. Under no circumstances should anyone, cooling system installer and/or workers in other disciplines and areas, walk on pipes and fittings that have or have not been positioned and soldered. Although probably convenient for passage between adjacent work areas, walking on already soldered pipe can and historically has led to premature loss of solder joint integrity, among other self evident undesirable integrity results.

Caution

IF FREEZING CONDITIONS EXIST DURING CHECKOUT AND FLUSHING PROCEDURES, FLUSHING PROCEDURE AND SUBSEQUENT FILL WITH FINAL GLYCOL/WATER MUST BE FINISHED BEFORE STILL WATER IS ALLOWED TO REMAIN IN HEAT EXCHANGER. IF PROCEDURE CANNOT BE FINISHED, CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO PREVENT WATER FROM FREEZING IN OUTSIDE COOLING SYSTEM EQUIPMENT. IF WATER REMAINS IN OUTSIDE EQUIPMENT LONG ENOUGH TO FREEZE, THE UNITS WILL BE DAMAGED. PUMP A MIXTURE OF GLYCOL/WATER INTO OUTSIDE EQUIPMENT TO PREVENT DAMAGE.

b.3 Routine System Operation and Maintenance

a. As a general rule of thumb, the entire system including all cabinets should be inspected for leaks on a routine basis. And any indication of a potential leak noted and corrected. The transmitter cabinet is equipped to detect internal leaks. For the rest of the system plumbing; however small leaks could evade detection.

If a system leak, is detected around a plumbed solder joint, the coolant should be drained, the leak point resoldered, and the system refilled and tested.

Repairs for a leak originating at a threaded joint may be initially attempted by tightening the affected joint without draining the system. If this tightening effort does not correct the problem, then the system must be drained, the problem area opened and replumbed as necessary, followed by a system refill and test.

b. Probably the single most important maintenance step: Inspect the bottom of the heat exchanger bi-monthly. Inspect the coil itself for any debris that may have become trapped on the coil face. This would block air flow and decrease cooling efficiency of the heat exchanger. Debris can be removed using a hose and pressurized water system. In dusty environments or areas where an abundance of vegetation is present this inspection will be required weekly

c. To achieve even usage time per unit and ascertain that back-up integrity exists, it is recommended that the pumps in the pump module are operated alternately one month at a time.

d. Check the pump module pressure gauge to ensure that a consistent stable pressure is indicated.

e. Inspect and clean the filtration loop.

f. Check flow rate.

g. Per the comment included in b.2.2 Standard Coolant Plumbing Practices section, mandate a continual discipline of NOT allowing plumbing pipe, fittings, etc., to be walked on.

h. The system must be analyzed for glycol concentration, annually. Analysis can be provided by the glycol manufacturer or via use of an analytical test kit supplied through the manufacturer.

b.3.1 Reserve Coolant Supply

A sufficient reserve supply of coolant and corresponding deinonized water should be kept on hand to refill the entire system in the event of a major leak.

b.3.2 Clean-Up Plan

A plan for containment and spill clean-up acceptable to local environmental regulations should be considered.

b.3.3 Operating Environment

Ambient air temperatures near the heat exchanger dry cooler should not rise above 45°C for typical installations.

b.3.4 Measuring Specific Gravity

Specific gravity can be measured with a conventional float hydrometer and jar or a MISCO DFR 200 (or equivalent) digital hydrometer to verify the 50/50 mixture. The hydrometer should be capable of measuring specific gravity in the 1.02 to 1.08 range.

Extract a sample of the coolant being used and cool it to 60oF (Note: this is the temperature to which your hydrometer has been calibrated.)

Read the specific gravity as accurately as possible. With this number the concentration or per cent of glycol in the solution can be determined. Let us assume the S.G. reads 1.060 on the hydrometer scale.

NOTE:The specific heat and specific gravity of water is not always equal to 1.0, see Tables B-2 and B-3 on page B-8.

Reading across the 1.06 S.G. line to the intersection of the 60oF curve (Point A) and then vertically down to the percent of UCARTHEM in the solution, shows that this particular sample is a 40% (by weight) glycol mixture.

b.4 Heat Transfer Solutions

b.4.1 Ethylene Glycol

Commercial Grade “Ucartherm” (Union Carbide Corporation) Ethylene Oxide/Glycol is the recommended heat transfer fluid to be used for the liquid portion of the cooling system. Ucartherm can be purchased from Harris in 55 Gallon lots using the following part numbers:

051-1010-021 - Ucartherm 50/50 solution

051-1010-001 - Ucartherm 100% concentrate

Automotive grade antifreeze is not recommended due to the silicon additives which can cause incompatibility problems with pump seals and other components within a system.

Due to a tendency of the glycol to break down over time when mixed with chlorinated water, it is recommended that distilled water be used for the solution.

The life expectancy of a “Ucartherm” system can be as long as 10-15 years for a clean system installed and monitored per the recommended procedures.

Glycols are excellent penetrants. Systems tested with water and checked to be tight sometimes will leak when glycol solutions are then added. Recheck the system for leaks after installing the glycol mixture.

Distribution information may be obtained by contacting Union Carbide Corporation (800-568-4000).

2/24/09 888-2684-001WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior

c

c.1 Surge and Lightning Protection

A lightning storm can cause transients in excess of 2kV to appear on power or field signal lines. The duration of these transients varies from a few hundred nanoseconds to a few microseconds. Power distribution system transient protectors can efficiently protect the transmitter from transients of this magnitude. Transients are shunted to ground through the protection devices and do not appear on the output. To protect the transmitter from high transients on field cables, electronic surge protectors are recommended.

All lightning protection is defensive in nature, that is, reacting to a lightning strike that has already occurred; therefore, its effectiveness is limited. Nothing can provide total immunity from damage in the case of a direct lightning strike. However, surge protectors installed immediately after the main power disconnect switch in the power distribution panel will afford some protection from electrical surges induced in the power lines.

Surge protection devices are designed to operate and recover automatically. When operated within specifications, a surge protector does not require testing, adjustment, or replacement. All parts are permanently enclosed to provide maximum safety and flexibility of installation.

To assure the safety of equipment and personnel, primary power line transformers must be protected by lightning arrestors at the service entrance to the building. This will reduce the possibility that excessive voltage and current due to lightning will seek some low impedance path to ground such as the building metallic structure or an equipment cabinet. The most effective type of power line lightning protection is the one in which a spark gap is connected to each primary, secondary, and the case of the power line transformer. Each spark gap is then independently connected to earth ground. In cases where driven ground rods are used for building ground, the primary and secondary neutrals must be separated by a spark gap. If two separate ground rods are used, the rods

Appendix-c Grounding, Surge & Lightning ATLAS ISDB-T

must be at least 20 feet apart. All connections between lightning arrestors, line connections, and ground must be made as short and straight as possible, with no sharp bends.

c.2 System Grounding

Signals employed in transmitter control systems are on the order of a few microseconds in duration, which translates to frequencies in the megahertz region. They are therefore radio-frequency signals, and may be at levels less than 500 microvolts, making them susceptible to noise appearing on ground wires or adjacent wiring. Thus, all ground wiring must be low in impedance as well as low in resistance, without splices, and as direct as possible. Four basic grounds are required:

1. AC ground

2. DC ground

3. Earth ground

4. RF ground

c.2.1 Ground Wires

Ground wires should be at least as large as specified by the local electrical code. These leads must be low impedance direct runs, as short as possible without splices. In addition, ground conductors should be insulated to prevent intermittent or unwanted grounding points.

Connection to the earth ground connection must be made with copper clamps which have been chemically treated to resist corrosion. Care must be taken to prevent inadvertent grounding of system cabinets by any means other than the ground wire. Cabinets must be mounted on a support insulated from ground.

c.2.2 AC Ground

The suggested grounding method consists of two separately structured ground wires which are physically separated from each other but terminate at earth ground. The green ground wire from the AC power input must connect to the power panel and the ground straps of the equipment cabinets.

The primary electrostatic shield of the isolation transformer, if used, connects to the AC neutral wire (white) so that in the event of a transformer primary fault, fault current is returned directly to the AC source rather than through a common ground system. The AC neutral is connected to earth ground at the service entry.

c-2 888-2684-001 2/24/09 WARNING: Disconnect primary power prior to servicing.

Page 261: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Appendix-c Grounding, Surge & ATLAS ISDB-T

Use of separate grounds prevents cross-coupling of power and signal currents as a result of any impedance that may be common to the separate systems. It is especially important in low-level systems that noise-producing and noise-sensitive circuits be isolated from each other; separating the grounding paths is one step.

Noise Grounding Plate. Where excessive high-frequency noise on the AC ground is a problem, a metal plate having an area of at least 10 square feet embedded in concrete and connected to the AC ground will assist in noise suppression. The connection to AC ground should be shorter than 5 feet, as direct as possible, and without splices. Local wiring codes will dictate the minimum wire size to be used.

Peripheral Equipment Grounds. All peripherals are supplied with a separate grounding wire or strap. All branch circuit receptacles must permit connection to this ground. This service ground must be connected through the branch circuit to a common grounding electrode by the shortest and most direct path possible. This is a safety ground connection, not a neutral.

Often, circuit common in test equipment is connected to power ground and chassis. In these cases, isolated AC power must be provided from a separate isolation transformer to avoid a ground loop.

c.2.3 DC Ground

DC grounds in the transmitter are connected to a ground bus, which in turn is routed to a common cabinet ground and then connected to an earth ground. The use of separate ground busses is a suggested method of isolation used to prevent cross-coupling of signals. These ground buses are then routed to the cabinet ground and to earth ground.

c.2.4 Earth Ground

The transmitter must be connected to earth ground. The connection must have an impedance of 5 ohms or less. For example, a one-inch metal rod driven 20 feet into moist earth will have a resistance of approximately 20 ohms, and a large ground counterpoise buried in moist earth will exhibit a resistance on the order of 1 to 5 ohms.

The resistance of an electrode to ground is a function of soil resistivity, soil chemistry and moisture content. Typical resistivity of unprepared soil can vary from approximately 500 ohms to 50kohms per square centimeter.

The resistance of the earth ground should be periodically measured to ensure that the resistance remains within installation requirements.

Page 262: Manual Trans Miss Or Atlas ISDB Series

Appendix-c Grounding, Surge & Lightning ATLAS ISDB-T

c.2.5 RF Ground

Electrical and electronic equipment must be effectively grounded, and shielded to achieve reliable equipment operation. The facility ground system forms a direct path of low impedance of approximately 10 ohms between earth and various power and communications equipment. This effectively minimizes voltage differentials on the ground plane to below levels which will produce noise or interference to communication circuits.

The basic earth electrode subsystem consist of driven ground rods uniformly spaced around the facility, interconnected with 2 or 4 inch copper strap. The strap and rods should be placed approximately 40 inches (1 meter) outside the roof drip line of the structure, and the strap buried at least 20 inches (0.5 meters). The ground rods should be copper-clad steel, a minimum of eight feet (2.5 meters) in length and spaced apart not more than twice the rod length. Brazing or welding should be used for permanent connections between these items.

Where a resistance of 10 ohms cannot be obtained with the above configuration, alternate methods must be considered.

Ideally, the best building ground plane is an equipotential ground system. Such a plane exists in a building with a concrete floor if a ground grid, connected to the facility ground system at multiple points, is embedded in the floor.

The plane may be either a solid sheet or wire mesh. A mesh will act electrically as a solid sheet as long as the mesh openings are less than 1/8 wavelength at the highest frequencies of concern. When it is not feasible to install a fine mesh, copper-clad steel meshes and wires are available. Each crossover point must be brazed to ensure good electrical continuity. Equipotential planes for existing facilities may be installed at or near the ceiling above the equipment.

Each individual piece of equipment must be bonded to its rack or cabinet, or have its case or chassis bonded to the nearest point of the equipotential plane. Racks and cabinets should also be grounded to the equipotential plane with a copper strap.

RF transmission line from the antenna must be grounded at the entry point to the building with 2 or 4 inch copper strap. Wire braid or fine-stranded wire must not be used.

All building main metallic structural members such as columns, wall frames, roof trusses, and other metal structures must be made electrically continuous and grounded to the facility ground system at multiple points. Rebar, cross over points, and vertical runs should also be made electrically continuous and grounded.

Conduit and power cable shields that enter the building must be bonded at each end to the facility ground system at each termination.

d.1 Introduction

What can be done with a 2 million volt pulse pushing 220,000 amps of current into your transmitting plant? Like the 500 pound gorilla it does what ever it wants to. There is not much that can be done to protect against a major direct lightning strike. This is called a significant impulse lightning stroke. It usually lasts less than 100 microseconds and is most destructive to electronic equipment because it contains huge amounts of high frequency energy.

Here are some examples of this damage:

• Melted ball and horn gaps.

• Ground straps burned loose.

• H.V. rectifier stacks shorted.

• Massive arc marks in the output circuit of AM transmitters.

• Ball lightning traveling into building on outer conductor of transmission line.

Figure 0-1 is a map of the United States that shows the number of lightning days expected in any year, with Colorado, New Mexico, and Florida leading the list.

Figure 0-2 shows the incidents to tall structures. A triggered event is one that happens because the tower was present. Without the tower the strike would not have occurred.

d.2 Environmental Hazards

There are devices and procedures that do offer protection from lessor environmental hazards than lightning. Some of these anomalies are listed and defined:

1. Over voltage/under voltage (brownout). Where the lines voltage differs from the nominal RMS for longer than one cycle.

Remedy - Automatic voltage regulators, preferably individual regulators on each phase. This can only be accomplished when the power feed line is delta or 4/wire wye connected, See Figure D-3.

2. Single phasing. This is where one leg of the three phase service is open.

Remedy - Protection afforded by a loss of phase detector. Without protection power transformers and 3 phase motors over heat.

3. Radio frequency interference (RFI). This is something we must design into all trans-mitters, however, equipment may be purchased that is susceptible, is not protected, and may develop problems.

Remedy - RFI filters on the ac lines and control lines are sometimes effective. Some-times the entire device must be enclosed in an RF free space.

4. Electromagnetic pulse (EMP). This is a interfering signal pulse that enters the system by magnetic coupling (transformer). Generally caused by lightning.

Lightning from cloud to cloud produces horizontally polarized waves while lightning from cloud to earth produce vertically polarized waves. The waves couple into the power lines and transmission lines causing large induced voltage that destroy high voltage rectifier stacks and output circuit faults. High frequency energy is coupled back into the transmitter causing VSWR overloads, See Figures D-4 and D-5.

Remedy - Ball or horn gaps at the base of the antenna prevent the voltage from ex-ceeding some high potential. Transient suppressor devices on the input power lines remove excessive voltage spikes. Buried power and transmission lines will reduce the amount of coupled energy to a great extent. This does not totally eliminate the prob-lem because there are currents traveling in the earth, which prefer to travel on the metal conductors, when lightning strikes close to the station.

5. Surge. A rapid increase in voltage on the power lines usually caused by lightning. The duration is less than 1/2 cycle and can be very destructive.

Remedy - Transient protectors are very effective in preventing damage to the equip-ment when properly designed and installed, See Figure D-6.

d.3 What Can Be Done?

Installation of the transmitter building, antenna tuning unit if applicable, and antenna should be done so that the risk of destruction due to lightning is minimal and the efficiency of the over all system is maximized. To do this, separate ground systems should be installed for the building and antenna. This forces all of the RF return currents to flow in the transmission line shield. The coax can be buried below the antenna ground plane to still further reduce the RF current coupled to it.

In medium and short wave installations the antenna ground plane is very important as it is of the radiating element. RF current leaving the antenna must return via the ground path (ground wave). For this reason the “antenna coupling unit” must be close to the base of the tower and securely connected to the ground plane.

Figure D-7 shows the basic elements of a properly designed antenna system.

• Good ground plane.

• Ball gap on tower.

• Series inductor in tower feeder.

• Antenna coupling unit connected to antenna ground.

• The circuit is equivalent to the normal Tee used by Harris.

• Underground coax.

• Guy wire length broken by insulators and grounded at the bottom end.

The transmitter building must be given extra protection to insure reliable equipment operation. A low impedance safety ground system must be installed using 3 inch wide copper strap hard soldered at all joints and connected to multiple ground rods located at the perimeter of the building. The ground rods should be wet to make good connection to the earth water table. All equipment cabinets within the building must be connected to the ground straps for safety reasons.

d.4 AC Service Protection

All incoming ac lines should have a choke connected in series to limit the high frequency surges on the lines followed by a surge protector. The surge protector must be connected to the building ground system by short direct connections, see Figure D-6.

A surge protector is a solid state device that has a high impedance until the voltage across it reaches its rated clamping voltage, at which time its impedance suddenly decreases. The protector will then conduct hundreds to thousands of amperes to ground. All protectors are rated for maximum voltage and maximum surge energy. If the surge energy exceeds rating of the device it will normally short and for this reason must be fused so it will disconnect itself from the line being protected. When this happens all protection is lost so some warning system must be used to tell the operators that a new protector should be installed.

Speed is essential to protect equipment from current surges with rates of rise exceeding 10,000 amps per microsecond and pulses that last no longer than 100 microseconds. Very short, low inductance ground straps are required to pass surges of this type.

The surge protectors must be selected for the line to ground voltage and the maximum energy to be diverted. Bigger is always better in this case. There are several manufacturers of surge protectors:

• Lightning Elimination Associates., Inc.

• Current Technology

• Control Concept

• MCG Electronics, Inc.

• EFI Corp.

• General Electric

All of these vendors provide parts and systems to protect broadcast transmitters.

All audio and control lines should be protected the same as described for ac lines with components sized accordingly.

All coaxial lines should have the shield connected to the system ground at the point of entrance and in addition have a ferrite choke around it located between the entrance point and the equipment rack. This will provide a high impedance for current flowing in the shield but does not affect the signal currents.

d.5 Conclusion

The 1% chance of a major lightning strike probably can not be protected against but the other 99% can be controlled and damage prevented. Install surge protection on all incoming and outgoing lines at the wall of the building connected to a well designed ground system. Properly install the antenna ground system with spark gap adjusted correctly and maintained. With this done you can sleep peacefully at night if your bed isn’t under the feed line.
