Technalogix Ltd. TM-100 Modulator

Important
Technalogix power supplies are designed so that under certain power line or
heat buildup conditions, the unit shuts off. An indicator would be no RF output,
but the POWER LED remains on. If this occurs, unplug the power cord and wait
two minutes before re-powering. Upon applying power, you should again have
RF output. If not, or should the unit return to shutdown mode, please contact
Technalogix for assistance. Technalogix highly recommends a 1.75 inch air
circulation space between any rack mounted equipment.
Transmitter Hookup
1. Connect modulated video from TM-100 RF OUT to the Technalogix power
amplifier.
2. Turn down RF level on TM-100 all the way.
3. Ensure that IF OUT is connected to IF IN on the TM-100 modulator using the
loop F to F cable supplied.
4. Connect the transmitting antenna cable to the RF output connector on the
power amplifier. It is recommended that a quality through line wattmeter be
installed in this same line.
5. Verify that all signal and RF cables are connected properly.
6. After following proper installation procedures outlined in the power amplifier
manual, plug the power amplifier’s power cords into an appropriate electrical
outlet.
Output power should be adjusted with a sync and blanking signal only with the aural
carrier removed. This is simply done by disconnecting one end of the audio carrier loop
found on the back panel of the TM-100.
