INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
2001 NEW
■ Linear amplifier connections (not usable in European countries)
CONNECTING THE IC-PW1
Turn OFF the transceiver’s antenna tuner while tuning the IC-PW1’s tuner.
CONNECTING A NON-ICOM LINEAR AMPLIFIER
R WARNING:
Set the transceiver output power and linear ampli-
fier ALC output level referring to the linear amplifier
instruction manual. Be sure the linear amplifier key-
ing circuit control voltage is compatible with the IC-
746PRO, before connecting to [SEND] jack.
The ALC input level must be in the range 0 V to –4
V, and the transceiver does not accept positive volt-
age. Non-matched ALC and RF power settings
could cause a fire or ruin the linear amplifier.
The specifications for the SEND relay are 16 V/DC
0.5 A. If this level is exceeded, a large external
relay must be used.
■ External antenna tuner connection
CONNECTING THE AH-4
The AH-4 must be connected to [ANT1].
