2.1

Setting up the Transmitter

1. Place the

7870T

in the 7180M Chassis.

2. Apply AC power to the chassis. The Power Supply and Laser

LEDs should be lit.

3. Using an optical power meter, measure the optical power. Insert

the meter’s cable into the Transmitter’s optical connector. Power

levels should be 0.5 mW minimum (-3 dBm).
Alternatively, use a DVM to measure the voltage at:

7180M Rackmount

: Pins J13-P17 through J13-P24 for the slot

being measured (See

Table 4 7870T Transmitter Pinout

on page 20

for details regarding J13 pinouts). [7180M Rackmount]

Standalone

: At pin #6 of the 9 pin connector [Standalone]

The signal level should be -4.5 ± -0.3VDC.
4. On the rear panel, connect the coax cable to the RF Input

Connector. The RF LED should be lit.

5. On the rear panel, connect the fiber optic cable to the Optical

Connector.

Note

If either LED is not lit, see

Chapter 4 Troubleshooting

on page 25.

Caution

When monitoring the voltage outputs use only a high

resistance DVM.
