3TX System Overview
Final assembly and test of each transmitter are performed at the Anywave factory.
The Exciter is set up on the desired channel frequency and the TX is tested with the
complete RF system (if purchased) at full power into a load. All TX operating
parameters are optimized and the Transmitter Forward and Reflected power meters are
properly calibrated. Linear and Nonlinear precorrection is performed and automatically
stored in non-volatile memory inside the Exciter. A Factory Test Report is completed
for each system, providing a record of full power operating parameters and performance.
The TX then goes through a final 24-hour burn-in period and check out before being
shut done and packed up for shipment.
In your shipment, you should receive a copy of the following documentation.
- Packing Checklist
- Transmitter Factory Test Report
- ACT TRN-U2D-C-FA Quick Start Guide
- ACT PA-U2D-C-FA PA User Manuals
Carefully unpack and inspect all your equipment and please review the Packing
Checklist when you receive your system to be certain you have received all your system
components. Also, please be sure to identify and remove all packing materials and
supports (foam pads, etc.) prior to initial turn-on of the equipment.
All Single PA TX systems ship with an AC power cord included with the Exciter
and PA. The PA shipment also includes an RS232 cable and an RS232-to-485 adapter,
for Exciter to PA communications, and a CAT5 Ethernet cable, for Exciter to PC built-
in web interface Remote Monitoring and Control.

5Initial Turn On
Please locate and have handy for reference a copy of your ACT TRN-U2D-C-FA
Factory Test Report as well as the ACT TRN-U2D-C-FA Quick Start Guide, and PA-
U2D-C-FA PA and Exciter User Manuals.
1. With all equipment turned OFF, please make the cable connections according
to the System Interconnect Diagram of section 4. Make sure the BPF or PA
output is properly connected to your Antenna feed or a suitable station load
before proceeding further.
2. Turn ON the Exciter via its rear-panel AC switch.
3. Check Exciter settings. Check the operating Frequency of the Exciter by
navigating to the Exciter FREQ submenu (simultaneously press Left and Right
buttons)
Check the Exciter drive level is set to -25dBm by navigating to the Exciter RF
submenu (from above, press ESC button then enter the RF submenu).
(Please refer to your Exciter User Manual for help with the detailed operation
of the Exciter).
4. Turn the PA ON via the PA rear panel breaker, which should turn BLUE when
ON.
5. The built-in FWD and REF power metering in your TX has already been
calibrated at the factory. The PA’s touchscreen and its Web interface both
contain the System Forward and Reflected power meter readings FWD-POW
and REFL-POW. Visit the PA’s touchscreen, or its Web interface and verify that
the current (Cur1_50) are showing real values and not all 0s.

6. You are now ready to bring the TX up to power. To accomplish this, slowly
increase the drive level out of the Exciter by increasing the POWER setting in
the Exciter RF submenu while watching the FWD-POW power increase
accordingly on the PA’s touchscreen, and its Web Interface.
Begin to slowly raise the FWD System power by using the UP button on the
Exciter, while monitoring the FWD-POW system power meter on the Controller
HOME screen as shown below.
