2.4.9 AUX 1 (J9)

The Auxiliary 1 (AUX 1) connector provides:

TTL faults

External high stability reference

AGC output voltage

The faults are open collector levels to indicate a modulator or demodulator failure. A
logic 1 indicates the faulted condition. The signals are primarily used in operating a
protection switch.

The external high stability reference clock input is 5, 10, or 20 MHz.
AGC-OUT is the voltage for a receive signal level between -25 and -50 dBm.

The AUX 1 connection is a 9-pin female D connector located on the rear panel of the
modem. Screw locks are provided for mechanical security on the mating connector.
