MODEL 3116-145-1600 Downconverter
1.0 General
1.1 Equipment Description
The 3116-145-1600 Block Downconverter converts 14.58 - 15.42 GHz (Fc =15.0 GHz) to 1.18 - 2.02 GHz
(1600 ± 420 MHz) with low phase noise and flat frequency response. Frequency translation is via a 13.40 GHz
local oscillator. The gain is +35 ± 2 dB maximum and is adjustable in 0.5 ± 0.5 dB steps. Front panel LEDs
provide indication of Remote operation, PLL Alarm and DC Power. Gain and internal/external/Auto reference
frequency selection are controlled by front panel switches or remote selection (via RS 232C, standard; Ethernet
Optional) and are viewable on the LCD Display. Connectors are SMA female for the RF and BNC female for
the L-Band and external reference input and reference output. In AUTO, the 10 MHz reference stays in external
if the external level is +3 dBm, ±3 dB. The 3116 is powered by a 100-240 ± 10% VAC power supply, and
housed in a 1 3/4” X 19” X 14” rack mount chassis.

Menu 2 Set Gain
Menu 3 Set Mute
Menu 4 Set Reference Mode
Menu 5 Set Reference Offset
Menu 6 Set Remote
Menu 7 Set Remote Interface
Menu 8 Set RS-485 Address
Save Menu When “R” is selected from any above menu or at the end.
Alarm indications appear on the LEDs (see Figure 2.2).
All program changes must start with the operation of the Menu/Execute switch and must also end with the
operation of the Menu/Execute switch verified by the “Save Settings?” Menu. If this sequence is not followed,
none of the changes will take effect. If programming is initiated and no operator action takes place for
approximately 30 seconds (before the final press of the Menu/Execute switch) the display will revert to its
previous status and you will need to start over.

2.5.2. Power On Settings
NOTE: THE LAST OPERATING PARAMETERS OF A UNIT ARE RETAINED EVEN WHEN
POWER IS REMOVED. WHEN POWER IS RESTORED, THE UNIT WILL RETURN TO IT'S
PREVIOUS SETTINGS.
When power is first applied, the LCD display goes through three steps.
1. The LCD goes black to show all segments are functioning.
2. The Model and Software version will be displayed.

The unit is now operational and ready for any changes the operator may desire.
2.5.3 Control Switches
1. Menu/Execute - Any change to the programming of the unit must be initiated by pressing the
Menu/Execute switch and completed by pressing the Menu/Execute switch.
2. Horizontal Switch - This switch is mounted so its movement is horizontal and moves the
display cursor left or right.
3. Vertical Switch - This switch is mounted so its movement is vertical and has two functions:
a. During gain changes, the vertical movement will raise or lower the number
in the direction of the arrows.
b. For other functions such Remote on/off, the vertical switch will alternately turn the function
on or off regardless of the direction operated.
3116-145-1600 Manual, Rev. 0 Page 13 05/15/17

2.5.4 Gain Changes
When you get to this menu note that gain changes will be made as you make them but if you do not wish to
save the changes you have made, scroll to “R” and push the menu/Execute switch and select “NO” in the
“SAVE SETTINGS?” window or do not press the Menu/Execute switch; simply do nothing for
approximately 30 seconds, and the system will return to the normal operating mode.
NOTE: THE GAIN WILL CHANGE AS YOU ADJUST THE NUMBERS. HOWEVER, THE
VALUE WILL NOT BE STORED UNTIL YOU INDICATE YES IN THE SAVE SETTINGS
WINDOW. DO NOT SET A GAIN THAT WOULD EXCEED 0 dBm OR HAVE LESS
THAN -20 dBm OUTPUT LEVEL.
Press the Up/Down switch to change the gain in 0.5, 1, or 10 dB steps and then push the
Menu/Execute switch to get to the Save Settings Menu:

2.5.5 Alarm Indications
An alarm condition will occur if any local oscillator phase lock loop (PLL) comes out of lock.
The Remote LED will light when you select the Remote mode.
2.5.6 10 MHz Reference Mode Operation
Internal Mode: The unit uses its own built-in 10 MHz OCXO. The Internal Reference is present on the
Reference Output Connector, J8. REF = INT appears on the front panel display.
External Mode: The unit uses a 10 MHz Reference that is connected to the External Reference Input, J2.
REF = EXT appears on the front panel display. The External 10 MHz Reference level
must be +3dBm, ±3dB. If the External 10 MHz signal does not meet the unit’s
specified parameters then the unit will not function properly. The External Reference
is present on the Reference Output connector, J8.
Auto Mode: The unit defaults to the External 10 MHz Reference as long as the level meets the +3dBm,
±3dB specification. REF = AUTO - E appears on the front panel display where the -E
indicates that the unit is using the External 10 MHz Reference. The External Reference is
present on the Reference Output connector, J8.
If the external 10 MHz Reference signal level is less than -1dBm, the unit switches to
Internal 10 MHz Reference. REF = AUTO -I appears on the front panel display
where -I indicates that the unit is using the Internal 10 MHz Reference. The Internal
10 MHz Reference is present on the reference output connector, J8.
3116-145-1600 Manual, Rev. 0 Page 15 05/15/17

2.5.7 Option W67 Extended Input Level Range
Option W67 extends the RF input level range from: -55 to -35 dBm to: -55 to 0 dBm.
The user must select on of the 3 input ranges which are:
A. -55 to -35 dBm
B. -40 to -20 dBm
C. -20 to -0 dBm
The option has a gain adjustable attenuator before the standard input amplifier. This attenuator/amp before the
mixer provides a gain of +25, +10, or -10 dB respectivily into the RF mixer. The noise figures for the three
ranges are +10, +20 and >35 respectivily for the three settings. Each range has a 0.5 +/- 0.5 dB step gain
adjustment over the range. The specified operational output range remains -20 to 0 dBm (P1db of +10 dBm at
maximum gain). The following table describes the input/output ranges, gain, P1db and noise figure implications
with this option.

A.Rack-Mounting - To mount this equipment in a rack, please refer to the installation instructions
located in the user manual furnished by the manufacturer of your equipment rack.
B. Mechanical Loading - Mounting of equipment in a rack should be such that a hazardous condition
does not exist due to uneven weight distribution.
C.Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the rack may be greater than room ambient temperature.
Therefore, consideration should be given to Tmra (Maximum Recommended Ambient Temperature).
D. Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Additional space between units
may be required.
E. Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits could have on over current protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment name plate rating should be used when addressing this concern.
F. Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connection to the
Branch (use of power strips).
G. Top Cover - There are no serviceable parts inside the product so, the Top Cover should not be removed.
If the Top Cover is removed the ground strap and associated screw MUST BE REINSTALLED
prior to Top Cover screw replacement. FAILURE TO DO this may cause INGRESS and/or EGRESS
emission problems.
