Installation SFC6400A/SFC1450A Synthesized Frequency Upconverter
2-2 TM106-Rev. 1.1
2.1 Unpacking
The SFC Upconverter was carefully packaged to avoid damage and should arrive complete with the
following items for proper installation:
SFC Upconverter Unit
Power Cord, 6 foot with applicable AC Connector (for North America)
Installation and Operation Manual
2.2 Removal and Assembly
SFC Upconverters are shipped fully assembled and do not require removal of the covers for any
purpose in installation.
Carefully unpack the unit and ensure that all of the above items are in the carton. If available AC
mains power available at the installation site requires a different cordset form the one included in the
package, then a suitable and approved cordset (for the country where the equipment is to be
installed) will be required before proceeding with the installation.
Should the Power Cable/AC Connector be of the wrong type for the installation, either the cable or
the power connector end should be replaced. The power supply itself is designed for universal AC
application. See specifications for the appropriate voltages and currents.
2.3 Mounting Considerations
When mounted in an equipment rack, adequate ventilation must be provided. The ambient
temperature in the rack should be between 10°C and 35°C, and held constant for best equipment
operation. The air available to the rack should be clean and relatively dry.
2.4 Initial Power-Up
Turn the unit ‘ON’ by placing the rear panel switch (above the power entry connector) to the ‘ON’
position. Upon initial and subsequent power-ups, the SFC Upconverter will test itself and several of
its components before beginning its main Monitor & Control Program. The Event Buffer LED will
illuminate and the unit will log setup events upon power-up. This allows the user to tell if there was
an accidental power failure or if the power was manually cycled for any reason while the unit was
left unattended. These events can be cleared after setup. If any failure is detected, an Alarm LED
will illuminate.
