Operation 3-7
3.4 Rear Panel connections
The Transmitter Controller has several types of connections on the rear panel of the
unit. The following will describe each type and what it is used for. See illustration
3-6 for location of each connector. Refer to Section 2.4.5 illustrations 2-15, 2-16
and 2-17 for detailed descriptions of each applicable remote control connector.
There are six (three, dual vertically stacked) DB-25 female connectors on the back of
the Transmitter Controller. PA1 thru PA5 are what is used to connect to the DB-25
remote I/O on the back of each PA. These are pre-wired in the cabinet.
The connector labeled I/O Port A is used for the Remote Interface and has the final
output metering information as well as the system controls for power control and high
voltage control. It also contains information for PA5. See illustration 2-15 on page
2-5 for a detailed description of what each pin is used for.
There are two (one, dual vertically stacked) DB-37 female connectors on the back
of the Transmitter Controller. Port B is used for a remote monitor and has all the
metering channels found on both PA1 and PA2 routed to this connector.
Port C has the information from PA3 and PA4. See illustration 2-16 and 2-17 on
page 2-6 and 2-7 respectively, for a detailed description of what each pin is used for.
There is one DB-9 female connector and one DB-9 male connector (vertically
stacked) on the back of the Transmitter Controller. The port labeled ‘Directional
Coupler’ is used to provide a supply voltage to the temperature sensor located
inside the connector shell attached to this port which in turn provides an internal
cabinet temperature reading available on I/O port A. The port labeled ‘Power
control’ is connected to the power supply located in the bottom of the cabinet. This
port has the control signals necessary for the power supply to operate.
