3.6.13.3 ATU CONTROLS
If a Nautel antenna tuning unit (ATU) is being
used, view and edit its control parameters as
follows:
NOTE
A serial interface allows communication
between the transmitter and the ATU. This
interface connects to the transmitter via the
INTERNAL RS-485 connector (25-pin D-sub)
on the rear of the exciter/control assembly.
(a) The screen below appears if the ATU is
in local mode of operation and auto-
tuning is active and is tuned. This screen
allows viewing of ATU status only. No
adjustments are possible while the ATU
is in local mode.
(b) If the ATU is set to the remote mode of
operation, the screen is as shown below.
This screen allows ATU tuning to be
controlled from the transmitter GUI.
Press Coil Control.
(c) In the coil control screen shown below,
use f and g to select the desired coil to
control - Resistive Coil or Inductive
Coil. Press Continue.
