PAGING REFERENCE SENSOR BOARD (OPTIONAL)

The Paging Reference Sensor Board is an additional option for the Paging Modulator (CI-PM-3) and
System Alarm Relay Board (SCARB) for simulcast systems that require high stability of paging signals.

The board works in conjunction with the paging modulator’s on-board PLL circuit. It is designed to
protect paging systems from external reference failures and indicate that a failure has occurred. The
alarm output will be triggered if the external reference fails.

If a higher RF power output is required, the transmitter may be used as an exciter to drive a power
amplifi er. Codan Radio Communications manufactures a 30 Watt power amplifi er for VHF highband
and UHF 400 MHz, shown in Figure 3-22 that will fi t into a standard subrack.
