Transmit Deviation
Limit Alignment
From the MAIN MENU, press F2 twice and then F5 to access the
TRANSMIT DEVIATION LIMIT screen.
This procedure is used to correct for deviation sensitivity versus RF
frequency variations in the VCO. The transmit and receive bands are
divided into frequency zones with a calibration point (value) in each
zone.
Note: Compensation for each of these points must be checked
and adjusted if the VCO is replaced.
The status bar at the bottom of the screen shows the relationship
between the softpot value for each frequency as a value between the
minimum and maximum settings.
Refer to your Radio Service Manual for the Transmit Deviation Limit
Alignment procedure.
Programming Procedure 1. Press F6 to key up the radio. (The radio’s RF output must be
terminated into a 50 ohm load.)
2. Apply the appropriate signal according to instructions provided in
your Radio Service Manual. While transmitting, modify the VCO
Attenuator setting with the UP/DOWN arrow keys.
3. Measure the actual RF power with a service monitor.
4. Press F6 to de-key the radio.
5. Press F8 to save the new value.
6. Use Tab to move between frequency points, repeating steps 1
through 5 for each field.

Caution
This procedure should be attempted only by qualified
service personnel. Failure to perform alignment
procedures properly may result in seriously degraded
radio or system performance.
