Hardware Setup
Note: If a mono plug or a shorted stereo plug is inserted into the rear I/O Accessory Speaker jack, damage will
occur to the audio output IC. Do NOT short these stereo pins or connect either side to ground!
Install the 4 supplied rubber feet.
The ANAN transceiver should be placed to allow unobstructed airflow around and beneath the housing.
Damage can occur if the ventilation openings on the bottom or rear panel of the ANAN Transceiver are
blocked. Allow room for airflow between the housing and other equipment.
Connect the supplied 13.8VDC cable to the rear panel power connector and to a filtered 13.8VDC +/-
5%, power supply capable of providing up to 7A.
Connect a suitable ground cable to the rear panel ground terminal and to a suitable RF ground, in
accordance with good amateur practices.
Connect a 50 ohm transmission line between the rear panel ANT1 BNC connection and a 50 ohm
dummy load.
Connect powered stereo speakers, or a stereo headset to the front panel 1/8"/3.5mm stereo jack.
Note: Do NOT connect powered stereo speakers or headsets to the rear panel speaker jack! This is a
balanced output and damage can result if either tip or ring is connected to ground.
For Phone operation connect a condenser PC microphone equipped with a 1/8"/3.5mm mono plug
into the front panel mic jack.
For CW operation, connect your favorite paddles to the KEY jack on the front panel.
Connect a CAT 5 Ethernet cable between the front panel RJ45 LAN jack and your router or PC Ethernet
port.
