If your Antenna feed is other than the standard connector (as shown on left), you will need to provide whatever adapter hardware is necessary to facilitate this connection to your Antenna feed). Low Pass Filter Band Pass Filter MHPTV TX User Manual MHPTV-USR-DOC-V3.0, 10/18/2019 Page 54 of 148 Before and After BPF Directional Coupler installation Please be sure to install the Before and After BPF Directional Couplers in the correct positions and orientation. Incorrect operation of the TX system may result if these directional couplers are not installed in the proper locations with the proper orientation as labeled. MHPTV TX User Manual MHPTV-USR-DOC-V3.0, 10/18/2019 Page 55 of 148 1.6 TX Ventilation MHPTV PA cooling is from front to rear. In a standard installation, warm air is vented out perforations in the cabinet rear door and into the room. A proper air- conditioned, dust-free environment is required to operate the TX equipment. There is an option to exhaust heat out the top of the cabinet. The top-down cabinet drawings below show the provision for the top panel ventilation hole (11 inches). Please specify cabinet ventilation when ordering. If you specify top ventilation, the TX will be delivered with a solid rear panel door (instead of the standard perforated rear door). All TXs are provisioned with a single ventilation hole at the top of the cabinet. 1 PA 2 PA MHPTV TX User Manual MHPTV-USR-DOC-V3.0, 10/18/2019 Page 56 of 148 3 & 4 PA 5 PA 6 & 8 PA MHPTV TX User Manual MHPTV-USR-DOC-V3.0, 10/18/2019 Page 57 of 148 MHPTV TX User Manual MHPTV-USR-DOC-V3.0, 10/18/2019 Page 58 of 148 2. Theory of Operation The MHPTV transmitter is conceptually simple to understand and easy to operate. The Transmitter operates on either 240VAC single-phase (3-wire) or 208VAC three-phase (4-wire) AC Mains service. An AC Mains Distribution compartment is located on the back-rear floor of the TX. This compartment is shielded for personnel safety and provides the distribution of appropriate AC power to the various modules inside the TX cabinet. A standard ASI input stream is provided to one of the BNC connectors located on the rear panel of the Exciter. The Exciter (different platforms) supports options for DVB-ASI and SMPTE310M (ATSC 9x exciter only) stream formats as well as an RF off-air input via a built-in tuner and TSoIP support via an RJ-45 input. The Exciter performs the appropriate modulation to produce an RF output at the desired channel frequency. Exciter configurations may vary – for DTV (ATSC, ATSC 3.0, DVBT/T2, ISDBT, DTMB, etc.). The TX supports both Single and Dual Drive (DD) Exciter configurations and manages the automatic and manual switchover between Exciters in a DD configuration. The modulated RF output signal from the Exciter(s) is (are) fed into the Control module which contains a preamp driver stage and built-in N-ways splitter (for multiple PA configurations). The N-ways outputs of the Controller preamp are then to feed the RF inputs of each of the PA modules. The PA modules contain 8 x BLF888E Doherty devices that amplify the RF signal to produce 1300W of output power per PA. The amplified output signals are fed into an N-way Hybrid Combiner (for 2/3/4/5/6/8 PAs configuration) and then into a Directional Coupler (for 2/3/4/5/6/8 PAs configuration) and finally out the top of the cabinet via a section of 1 5/8 or 3 1/8 transmission line. The 1 5/8 or 3 1/8 output stack of the Transmitter is then fed into an inline 1 5/8 or 3 1/8 Harmonic Filter (if required) before entering a Before-Filter directional coupler and the input to the channel mask BPF mounted on top of the cabinet. The output of the BPF connects through an After-Filter directional coupler into the Antenna feed to radiate the DTV signal on-air. The Exciter receives the two feedback signals from the Before-Filter and After- Filter directional couplers located at the input and output of the BPF. These before and MHPTV TX User Manual MHPTV-USR-DOC-V3.0, 10/18/2019 Page 59 of 148 after BPF feedback signals are used by the Exciter to provide automatic Linear and Non-Linear pre-correction of the forward path signal. Additional feedback signals are provided to the Control module, which monitors these samples to implement protective protocols including forward power reduction and shutting down the TX in the event of high reflected power or other unsafe operating conditions. System FWD and REV power samples are provided to the Control module from the Directional Coupler located directly after the N-way power combiner (for 2/3/4/5/6/8 PAs configuration). The Control module also receives feedback samples from the System Reject Load(s) (for 2/3/4/5/6/8 PAs configuration), enabling it to control the variable fan speed of the reject load(s). The Control module is in constant communication with the Exciter and PA modules via an RS-485 serial bus. Each module has a unique ID on the bus, and the Control module is continually talking with the Exciter and PA modules to provide monitoring and control capabilities via its front panel touchscreen and built-in web user interfaces. Both the Control module and the Exciter provide RJ-45 Ethernet connections through which the user may remotely monitor and control the TX via their respective built-in web interfaces.
