(e) The selected 'main' transmitter will be 
providing the 'audio out' (RMT AUD) 
sample via the dual transmitter interface 
assembly (unit 3). 
 
(f) If transmitter A is selected as the 'main' 
transmitter, an open collector SHTDN ALM 
(B)signal will be applied to 3A1J5-23 
from A11J4-17 ('shutdown') of 
transmitter B. 
(g) If transmitter B is selected as the 'main' 
transmitter, an open collector SHTDN ALM 
(A) signal will be applied to 3A1J4-23 
from A11J4-17 ('shutdown') of 
transmitter A. 
 
3.2 Shutdown/Changeover: If the 
selected 'main' transmitter is shutdown 
because an abnormal condition was sensed 
for more than 20 seconds (maximum pre-
settable time period is 80 seconds), or for 
any other reason, the following will occur: 
 
(a) The +15 V power supply in the selected 
'main' transmitter will be switched off, 
removing +15 V from A11J4-13 of the 
main transmitter and from A11J4-20 of 
the standby transmitter via the dual 
transmitter interface assembly (unit 3). 
The standby transmitter will turn on. 
 
(b) If transmitter A is selected as the 'main' 
transmitter, the main/standby relay in the 
transmitter A's harmonic filter will de-
energize and route the 'standby' (B) 
transmitter's output to J1 (RF OUT) as the 
RF output to the antenna system. 
 
(c) If transmitter B is selected as the 'main' 
transmitter, the main/standby relay in the 
transmitter A's harmonic filter will 
energize and route the 'standby' (A) 
transmitter's output to J1 (RF OUT) as the 
RF output to the antenna system. 
 
(d) The 'standby' transmitter will provide 15 
V and the manually controlled slewing 
commands (ATU CONT) for the antenna 
system's antenna tuning unit via the dual 
transmitter interface assembly (unit 3). 
 
(e) The standby transmitter will be providing 
the 'audio out' (RMT AUD) sample. 
(f) If transmitter A is selected as the 'main' 
transmitter, an open collector SHTDN ALM 
(A)signal will be applied to 3A1J4-23 
from A11J4-17 ('shutdown') of 
transmitter A, causing a ground to be 
applied to RMT CHGOV ALM outputs 
3A1J1-8 and 3A1TB3-6, indicating the 
standby transmitter is on. 
 
(g) If transmitter B is selected as the 'main' 
transmitter, an open collector SHTDN ALM 
(B)signal will be applied to 3A1J5-23 
from A11J4-17 ('shutdown') of 
transmitter B, causing a ground to be 
applied to RMT CHGOV ALM outputs 
3A1J1-8 and 3A1TB3-6, indicating the 
standby transmitter is on. 
 
4. INSTALLATION INFORMATION 
Complete or verify the following 
requirements are completed during 
installation of the dual transmitter system. 
 
(a) Ensure the cabinet will not topple, when 
the transmitters are extended on their 
drawer slides, by securely bolting the 
cabinet to its mounting surface. There 
are four mounting holes at the base of 
the cabinet to accommodate securing 
hardware (see figure 4). 
 
(b) Permit extension of the transmitters on 
their drawer slides by removing the four 
M8 shipping bolts securing each 
transmitter to the dual cabinet. The 
cabinet’s side panels must be removed 
to access these bolts. If the optional 
remote control unit (unit 4) is installed, 
remove its two shipping bolts also. 
Reinstall side panels. 
 NOTE 
Steps (c) through (g) involve connections 
that are outside of the cabinet. There are 
two cable entry holes (one at the top and 
one at the bottom; see Figure 4) in the 
cabinet. Select the most proximal cable 
entry hole for each external connection. 
 
(c) Connect appropriate ac power source 
wiring (115 V ac, 60 Hz or 230 V ac 
50/60 Hz) to ac duplex box J2.
