AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT BOARD
Location of 50W
Power Amp Module
Figure 10-25. Location of 50W Power Amplifier Module
The 50W Power Amplifier has a circuit board which contains two programmable jumpers, J6 and J7.
In addition to this, the board has five connectors (J1, J2, J3, J4, J5), and five potentiometers (R8, R14,
R69, R74, R83) that must be set for proper system operation. These components can be seen in below
Table 10-13 describes the functions of these components and indicates how the jumpers and
potentiometers must be set.
Effective October 2010, two DIP Switch banks SW1 and SW2 have been added to the Power Amp
Circuit Board. These switches are factory set for optimum operation but can be changed in the field if
required. See Table 10-14 for a description of the switch functions and their settings.

Figure 10-26. Circuit Board, 50W Power Amp showing locations of jumpers, switches, connectors, potentiometers
As shown above; effective October 2010, two switch blocks have been added to the Power Amplifier
Circuit Board. These DIP switches are factory set to protect the circuit board from overvoltage or
excessive phase angle situations. See Table 10-14 for a description of the switch settings.
