11. INITIAL OPERATION OF THE AMPLIFIER
Before turning ON the amplifier, read this manual carefully.
The following preliminary operations are necessary:
1) Ensure that the mains voltage is within the proper range of the amplifier’s
power supply requirements.
2) Connect the amplifier to a good ground circuit.
3) Connect the antennas.
4) Connect the amplifier to the transceiver ( read the “CONNECTIONS WITH
THE TRANSCEIVER” chapter of this manual).
Operate [I] on the main switch on the back panel. Press the [ON] key on the front panel.
Select the INPUT where the transceiver is connected, always perform programming with
the amplifier in STANDBY.
If you change memory BANK you have to repeat this programming.
Note: You may have to repeat some programming if you change antenna, transceiver, etc.
Note: ATTENTION: The ‘RELAY’ and ‘CAT’ signals in some types of transceivers are only
turned ON from a transceiver menu. Refer to the user manual.
Note: ATTENTION: When the amplifier is in the ‘STANDBY’ and ‘OPERATE’ modes, always
disable the transceiver’s autotuner.
11.1 Initial Programming
You must carry out the next steps in the sequence below:
1) To Set CONFIG:
Press [SET] and open the “CONFIG“ menu page.
Select: [BNK A] or [BNK B].
If you are using the AMB-01 system or the CO1-2 Combiner, select also one of the
three other choices.
In this case “R”, “S” or “C” will appear before the antenna number.
If you are not using the AMB-01 or the Combiner, go directly to SAVE.
