OTHER FUNCTIONS

D

Adjusting the transmit signal output from
the TNC

When setting data transmission speed to 9600 bps, the data
signal coming from the TNC is applied exclusively to the in-
ternal limiter circuitry to automatically maintain band width.

NEVER apply data levels from the TNC of over 0.6 V p-p, oth-
erwise the transceiver will not be able to maintain the band
width and may possibly interfere with other stations.

1. When using a level meter or synchroscope, adjust the

TX audio output level (DATA IN level) from the TNC as
follows.

0.4 V p-p (0.2 V rms)

: recommended level

0.2 V p-p–0.5 V p-p (0.1 V rms–0.25 V rms) : acceptable level

2. When NOT using a measuring device.

q

Connect the transceiver to a TNC.

w

Enter a test mode (“CAL”, etc.) on the TNC, then transmit
some test data.

e

When the transceiver fails to transmit the test data or trans-
mits sporadically (TX indicator doesn’t appear or flashes):
- Decrease the TNC output level until the transmit indicator

lights continuously.

When transmission is not successful even though the TX
indicator lights continuously:
- Increase the TNC output level.

Video monitor function

The LCD can be used as a video monitor for an NTSC or PAL
video signal.

NTSC : U.S.A., Australia, Asia, Latin America, Korea and

Taiwan versions

PAL

: Europe and Italy versions
