Service
Notes
Performance
Checks
All
performance
checks
are
in-cabinet procedures
to be
used
for
checking
specifications
after
repair or for
incoming
quality
control
inspection.
Note:
All
measurements should
be made
with
the
5306
and
test
equipment power
cords connected
to
a nominal
120
V
AC,
50/60
Hz line
voltage.
The
following
test
equipment
is recommended:
Audio
Test
Oscillator—
Krohn-Hite model
4100,
or
equivalent.
Harmonic
Distortion
Analyzer—
Hewlett Packard
Model
333A,
331 A
or
equivalent.
Intermodulation
Distortion
Analyzer—Crown
Model IMA,
or
equivalent.
AC
Voltmeter—
Hewlett Packard
Model
427A
or
equivalent.

Using the test set-up
illustrated,
replace the
AC voltmeter
with the
harmonic
distortion analyzer
at the 5306
output
terminals.
2.
With the microphone
gain control
at maximum
and
Master
Gain
at
"7,"
set the test oscillator
at any frequency
between
30
Hz
and 20 kHz. Adjust
amplitude
to
indicate
6.2V RMS (-MS
dBm) on the distortion
analyzer.
3.
Total harmonic
distortion
of
the mixer
should
be less
than
0.2% on any input
channel.

Response
1.
Connect
the
test
oscillator to any
one
of
the six
micro-
phone
inputs
through
a 40-dB pad
with
a
standard
microphone
cable.
A pad is
not necessary when testing
through
one of
the two program inputs.
2. Connect
an
AC
Voltmeter and a 620-ohm, 1-watt load
resistor
across
output terminals marked
"600 n
Balanced."
Note
that the two center terminals should
be
strapped.
3.
With
one
microphone
channel and
Master
Gain at maxi-
mum,
set the
test
oscillator frequency
to
1000
Hz
and
adjust
its
amplitude
to indicate
1.95V
RMS
(-f
8
dBm)
on
the
AC
voltmeter.
4. Using
1 .95V
RMS
as a
reference level, the mixer should
be
within
+
1.0 dB
from 20-20,000 Hz.
Microphone

.
With
the test oscillator
still connected
to any one of
the
six
microphone
inputs, connect the
AC
voltmeter
across
the
output
of
the oscillator.
2.
Set the microphone
gain control at
maximum, and
the
Master
Gain
at
"0".
3.
Set the
test oscillator
frequency
to 1000 Hz
and increase
the amplitude
until the overload indicator
starts to flash.
The
AC
voltmeter
should
read
40 mV nominal.
