Quick Start Guide 1.1. Assemble Components With the power to the BlackMax rack turned off, assemble the components: (1) Install the DRTXM3 Transmitter in the rack (2) Install the GPS-1 Synchronizer in the rack (3) Connect the circular cable from the rear of the DRTXM3 to the “Output to Transmitter” connector on the GPS-1 (4) Place the antenna outdoors with clear access to the sky (5) Connect the antenna cable to the “GPS Antenna” input (6) Connect the computer’s serial COM port to the RS-232C connector on the GPS-1 ALWAYS SWITCH THE POWER TO THE GPS-1 OFF BEFORE CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING THE ANTENNA. THIS IS NECESSARY BECAUSE THE ANTENNA CONTAINS ACTIVE ELECTRONIC CIRCUITRY POWERED FROM THE GPS TIMING RECEIVER. CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING THE ANTENNA OR ANTENNA CABLE WHEN THE UNIT IS POWERED CAN RESULT IN FAILURE OF THE ANTENNA MODULE. 1.2. DC Power Connection For some special applications such as testing, DC power can be fed to the back plane of the BlackMax rack through a jumper cable using a RED (+) and BLACK (-) pigtail jumper. Voltages are as follows: • Nominal: 12 Volts DC • Normal Range: 10.4 to 13.6 Volts DC. • Maximum Range: 10 to 14 Volts DC. • Current…

Operational Description

1. GPS Transmitter System Functional Description 1.1. GPS Transmitter System Block Diagram A block diagram of the GPS synchronized transmitter system is provided as a separate document and is referred to below. 1.2. GPS Timing Receiver and Antenna Subsystem At the upper left of the block diagram is the GPS timing receiver and antenna subsystem. These units differ from the usual hand-held GPS receiver used for position location in that they have a precision ovenized oscillator that is phase locked to GPS standard time. 1.2.1. GPS Antenna The GPS timing receiver picks up the transmissions from the GPS satellites using the GPS antenna connected to the receiver through a 75 Ω coaxial cable. For convenience in connecting the system, a front-panel connector is provided 1.2.2. GPS Timing Receiver The GPS timing receiver is mounted inside the GPS-1 Synchronizer module and it draws its power from the BlackMax Rack. The outputs from the GPS timing receiver are a 10 MHz sine wave and a 1 PPS (pulse per second) digital pulse both locked to GPS standard time within 50 nano seconds (0.000 000 050 seconds) or less. The green front-panel LED indicators for “GPS 10 MHz” and “GPS 1 PPS” indicate the presence of these signals. Note, however, that these signals will be produced whenever the GPS timing receiver is operating, whether or not it is locked to absolute GPS time. Thus, the presence of these signals as indicated by the front-panel LEDs does not assure that the system is locked to GPS time. This can only be determined by monitoring the serial output of the GPS timing receiver, as described below in Section 3.2.3. 1.2.3. GPS Receiver Monitor Program Running on a PC In the upper left of the block diagram is a desktop or laptop personal computer (PC) running a program that monitors and reports the status of the GPS timing receiver inside the GPS-1 Synchronizer module. As shown in the figure, the computer is connected through a standard serial cable to the front panel connector on the GPS-1 labeled “RS-232C.” E:\1 Filings\ARNs FILINGS\USA\Actual Filings\Highway Information\9982 DRTXM3\Operational Description\O2Q-DRTXM3 Principle of Operation.doc 01/27/03 1 1.3. GPS-1 Local Oscillator and Divider Chain 1.3.1. GPS-1 Local Oscillator At the upper right of the block diagram is the GPS-1 local oscillator. This oscillator is a voltage-controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO), whose frequency and phase can be fine tuned by the application of a control voltage. 1.3.2. GPS-1 Local Oscillator Operating Modes In normal operation, the synchronization circuitry (to be described below) keeps the GPS-1 local oscillator precisely phase locked with the 10 MHz and 1 PPS signals from the GPS timing receiver. If the GPS 10 MHz signal is not present, the synchronization circuit automatically switches the GPS-1 oscillator over to GPS-1 manual control mode. In GPS-1 manual control mode the oscillator no longer has the precision of a GPS oscillator, but rather, has the precision typical of a standard HAR transmitter. Note that the various frequency control modes mentioned throughout this chapter are summarized at the end of the chapter. 1.3.3. RF Divider Chain The RF divider chain shown below the GPS-1 local oscillator divides the oscillator frequency down to the RF frequency of the transmitter. This signal is fed to the transmitter via the front-panel circular connector labeled “Output to Transmitter” and then travels through the circular cable through the rear of the transmitter cabinet to the Transmitter GPS interface adapter board inside the transmitter. 1.4. GPS to Local Oscillator Synchronization Circuitry 1.4.1. Synchronization Circuitry The synchronization circuitry block shown near the top center of the diagram synchronizes the GPS-1 local oscillator to the GPS timing signals. This is accomplished by dividing both the 10 MHz GPS timing signal and the GPS-1 local oscillator signal down to the greatest common divisor, namely 10 kHz (10,000 Hz). The synchronization circuitry then uses a phase-locked-loop circuit to precisely control the phase and frequency of the local oscillator so that it is always precisely synchronized with the GPS timing signals. 1.4.2. RF Phase Degrees Control The front-panel “RF Phase Degrees Control” connects to the synchronization circuitry and precisely changes the phase of the local oscillator relative to the GPS timing signals so that the phase of the RF output from the transmitter can be adjusted through the full 360 degrees. In fact, the range of the adjustment is 000 to 999 degrees, but use of values greater than 360 is both unnecessary and not recommended. E:\1 Filings\ARNs FILINGS\USA\Actual Filings\Highway Information\9982 DRTXM3\Operational Description\O2Q-DRTXM3 Principle of Operation.doc 01/27/03 2 1.5. Transmitter GPS Interface 1.5.1. Transmitter GPS Interface Adapter Board Shown in the lower right of the block diagram is a dotted line corresponding to the DRTXM3 Transmitter. Located in the transmitter is the Transmitter GPS Interface Adapter Board which processes the frequency control signals from the GPS-1 Synchronizer module to make them suitable for controlling the transmitter RF. 1.5.2. Transmitter Local Oscillator Switching Function The transmitter GPS interface adapter board incorporates a switching function such that if the frequency control signals from the GPS-1 are present, the transmitter will be under GPS control, but if these signals are not present, the transmitter will automatically switch over to operate from its own local oscillator. 1.5.3. Transmitter Lock LED The transmitter GPS interface adapter board also generates the “Transmitter Lock” signal which is fed to the front panel LED on the GPS-1 Synchronizer. When this LED is lit it indicates that the transmitter is operating properly from the signal being provided from the GPS-1 synchronizer. Note that it does not necessarily indicate that the system is locked to the GPS time signal, which can only be determined usin…
