RF-O! Transmitter Preparation for Alignment
1. Configure your FIPS terminal session:
a. Disconnect the remote FIPS cables from the 9-pin D-type connectors on the front
panel of both the RF-O! transmitter and RF-B! transmitter controller.
b. Connect your FIPS terminal serial port(s) to the RF-O! transmitter front panel FIPS
ports. The setup should be 9600 bps, eight data bits, no parity, 1-stop bit.
2. Verify and record all items in the Appendix G (optional).
Note: Use the inspection mirror to see the serial numbers if necessary.
3. Access the RF-O! transmitter:
4. Verify and record the station configuration parameters shown in the checklist.
5. Disconnect the network on the RF-B! transmitter controller, the network can be
disconnected by unplugging the coaxial T-connector at the transceiver.
Note: Observe safety and static precautions while adjusting cabling within the station. Always
use the proper torque wrench to tighten and loosen the RF cables on the station.
6. Confirm that the RF-O! transmitter is dekeyed:
a. Confirm front panel PA Keyed LED is off
b. Confirm zero PA module current with RFO FIPS: a 68 1 c 0 1 0 (and a 68 2 c 0 1 0, if
two PAs.)
7. Terminate the RF-O! transmitter RF output, located on the top of the cabinet, into a 500-
Watt, 50-ohm load.
