CHAPTER 2
2.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
2.1 RX-400A RECEIVER PURPOSE AND FUNCTION
The TEN-TEC RX-400A is an all m de, wide RF c verage, HF/VHF/UHF receiver that
delivers military-grade perf rmance in a C mmercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) pr duct. The
unit is designed t pr vide signal acquisiti n, m nit ring and c llecti n functi ns using
manual tuning, frequency scan r directed search mem ry channel m des f perati n.
The RX-400A c vers the frequency range f 100kHz t 3000 MHz using a mix f high
perf rmance anal g circuitry f r the RF t IF c nversi n path c upled t a digital back-
end c mprised f the latest digitizer and DSP techniques t pr vide a s ftware defined
receiver. The DSP secti n pr vides 27 digital IF filters fr m 100Hz t 300kHz and AM,
FM, USB, LSB and CW detecti n m des. Other than a p wer ON/OFF switch,
headph ne jacks, v lume c ntr l and status indicat rs, the receiver has a blank fr nt
panel, thus is designed f r rem te c ntr l perati n. Rem te c ntr l is via a
c mpani n RCU-400A Receiver C ntr l Unit r via a h st/PC using an pti nal Graphical
User Interface (GUI) s ftware package.
Figure 2-1 RX-400A, Fr nt View
All interface t the Receiver is via rear panel c nnect rs f r p wer, RF input, IF utputs,
line audi utput, external reference input and rem te c ntr l. The rear panel als
c ntains a dip-switch t set the receiver c nfigurati n t perati nal r firmware update
m des.
2-1 PN 74446

Figure 2-2 RX-400A, Rear Panel View
The RX-400A c ntains separate signal paths f r HF and VHF/UHF frequency bands. The
HF secti n c vers the 100kHz t 88 MHz range. The VHF/UHF fr nt-end c vers the
range fr m 88 MHz t 3000 MHz. A single RF input c nnect r is used t c ver b th
ranges. Internal firmware c mmands aut matically switch between the HF and
VHF/UHF pre-select r secti ns based n tuned frequency.
During HF perati n signals entering the HF c nverter secti n first pass thr ugh a user
adjustable step attenuat r t enhance receiver perf rmance by reducing interference
caused by receive verl ad in the presence f extremely large signal levels enc untered
in the HF frequency d main. The attenuat r is f ll wed by multiple p le RF filters (pre-
select r) t eliminate p tential interference fr m ut- f-band signals.
F r VHF/UHF perati n the received signals are r uted t the high band pre-select r
which c ntains switched filter sets t c ver sub- ctave ranges between 88 and 3000
MHz. F r ther than U.S. G vernment, U.S. Military r appr ved f reign g vernment
use the RX-400A will n t pr vide c verage f the vari us cellular teleph ne bands.
The 2 Receiver IF utputs, WBIF 1 and WBIF 2, pr vide wideband IF signals f r use
with auxiliary analysis equipment such as IF pan signal m nit rs and IF-Tape
c nverters. The IF center frequency is 21.4 MHz with a bandwidth f 2 MHz bel w a
tuned frequency f 20 MHz. Fr m a tuned frequency f 20 t 3000 MHz the IF
bandwidth is 6 MHz.
2-2 PN 74446

The RX-400A c ntains tw (2) c mmand and c ntr l p rts, an Ethernet IP RJ-45
c nnect r, and a standard USB c nnect r. B th interfaces supp rt the same c mmand
set, with the excepti n f the digital audi streaming which is nly available n the
Ethernet IP interface. Generally the USB interface is used as the firmware update p rt
r f r c nnecti n t an external h st PC f r receiver c ntr l using the pti nal GUI
package, while the Ethernet interface is used f r c nnecti n t the RCU-400A Receiver
C ntr l Unit, f r c ntr l/status and audi streaming. This p rt can als be used f r
c nnecti n directly t a h st PC with the added benefit f audi streaming capability,
pr viding the h st has the pti nal GUI s ftware installed.
Internal RX-400A receiver firmware establishes the perating features and parameters
such as tuned frequency, gain, AGC m de, IF filter bandwidth, detecti n m de, BFO
and all the functi ns ass ciated with frequency and mem ry channel scan m des. This
firmware can be updated in the field using a lapt p c mputer r the system h st
PC/w rkstati n with the appr priate drivers. See Chapter 6 f r details.

3.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Examine the shipping cart n f r damage bef re unpacking the unit. If the cart n is
damaged, attempt t pen it in the presence f the shipping agent. If this is n t
p ssible then d cument r ph t graph the cart n damage f r a matter f rec rd. If
undamaged then retain the cart n and packing material f r future use.
Rem ve the packing material fr m the t p f the unit and lift the RX-400A Receiver free
f the cart n. Next rem ve the clear plastic bag fr m the unit. Inspect the unit f r
external damage with particular attenti n t dents r bent sheet metal. Als inspect
fr nt panel c mp nents and rear panel c nnect rs f r damage. If external damage is
evident then rem ve t p and b tt m c vers f the RX-400A Receiver by rem ving
multiple screws al ng the c ver edges, then inspect all the internal assemblies f r
damage such as cracked circuit cards r br ken r l se c mp nents. DO NOT
ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT IF INTERNAL DAMAGE IS NOTED. Up n
finding any damage c ntact the shipping agent and c ntact the TEN-TEC fact ry t
arrange f r unit repair.
3.2 MOUNTING
The RX-400A may be m unted as a single unit r side-by-side with an ther 2U half-rack
piece f equipment in a standard EIA 19” rack encl sure. F r single unit rack
installati n please c ntact TEN-TEC t secure the c rrect rack m unt kit. F r m st
c mm n m unting arrangements the RX-400A will be installed side-by-side with
an ther RX-400A Receiver r c mpani n RCU-400A Receiver C ntr l Unit t fill a 2U
rack pening. Side-by-side m unting is acc mplished by using the RM-400-2 Rack
M unt Kit. The RX-400A has 3 threaded inserts n each side f the chassis t accept
10-32 x 0.50” l ng screws f r use with cust mer furnished chassis slides. The h le
pattern is c mpatible with J nathan m del 375QD r equivalent.
The rack m unt kit c ntains 4 pieces as listed in Table 3-1.

3-1 PN 74446
T use the RM-400-2 rack m unt kit, first attach the U-channel bracket t the ‘inside’
side f ne f the chassis using the rear 2 m unting h les ut f the set f 3, with the
furnished screws. Then attach the fr nt panel bracket t the chassis with the flat side

t ward the fr nt panel surface. Next, p siti n the sec nd chassis s the U-channel and
fr nt panel brackets can be attached t the sec nd chassis. N w the 2 units are
secured t gether with ab ut a 2 inch gap between the chassis. Next attach the left
hand and right hand brackets (rack m unt ears) using the furnished screws. The ears
are attached using 2 threaded 10-32 inserts at the fr nt f the RX-400A chassis. Refer
t Figure 3-1 f r parts rientati n.
3.3 POWER
Ensure the P wer Switch is in the OFF p siti n n The RX-400A Receiver (left side f
switch depressed t ward fr nt panel). C nnect a cust mer furnished p wer cable with
a female MS-type 3-pin plug t the p wer c nnect r n the rear f the RX-400A. Pin
wiring f r the cable must be identical t that listed in Table 2-3. Next plug the ther
end f the cable int a 90-260 VAC, single phase p wer s urce.
3.4 RF, IF, EXTERNAL REFERENCE AND AUDIO CONNECTIONS
The RF (Antenna) c nnecti n is made t Receiver via a SMA c nnect r. B th WBIF
utputs are c nnected t external devices using SMA c nnect rs/cables. Likewise an
external reference signal can be c nnected with a SMA cable. Balanced Line Audi is
available n a rear panel 15-pin D c nnect r where c nnecti ns are made via a
cust mer furnished mating c nnect r and cable assembly. Pin assignments are listed in
Table 3-2.
3.5 REMOTE CONTROL CONNECTION
RX-400A Receiver c ntr l is via tw (2) interface c nnect rs n the rear panel. One is
a USB 2.0 interface using the standard USB type c nnect r. The ther is ETHERNET
using a RJ-45 type jack. Either interface can be used t c ntr l the receiver and the
c mmand sets are identical, h wever, nly the ETHERNET interface pr vides the digital
audi streaming capability. Please see Chapter 7 f r detailed inf rmati n f r c mmand
w rds.
3.6 CONNECTION TO THE RCU-400A RECEIVER CONTROL UNIT
F r perat r manual c ntr l f the Receiver it can be c nnected t a c mpani n RCU-
400A Receiver C ntr l Unit, either c -l cated with the Receiver r at a different p siti n
fr m that f the Receiver. In this case use the ETHERNET interface n the Receiver
and c nnect a cable t p rt 1 thr ugh p rt 7 n the RCU-400A.
