Linear-Reminder
OPR (Standby/Operate)
The Linear Reminder provides a Standby/Operate function (OPR). This function requires
a Relay inserted in the PTT line between the transceiver and the linear amplifier (to be
controlled itself using the LPT port) or a recent Kenwood transceiver which allows controlling
the state of the amplifier relay using a dedicated CAT function.
Automatic control of OPR/SBY is provided to prevent from transmitting with a linear amplifier
on certain prohibited segments or just after band changes (forces standby after a band
change) or even above a critical drive power. OPR controls and/or visualizes the state
(Operate/Standby) of this function.
Note : If control of the linear is not possible, control of Vox or RF Power is also
provided to prevent from transmitting on prohibited segments or after band changes.
Please see Options for more information.
Operation
Preset values for TUNE and LOAD capacitors (and eventually USR1 and USR2 if defined) are
displayed for each segment according to your Options making tuning your linear easier and
faster.
If Auto is activated, the Linear-Reminder warns you as soon as a band change happens or a
cross-band condition is detected. If you use the OPR/SBY control function (see above and
Options), your amplifier or your transmitter is disabled (= StandBy) while OK is not clicked.
