2. INSTALLATION
2-1. Unpack ng and In t al Inspect on
N O T E
Before you start any action on installing the antenna
switch, thoroughly read through this manual. First
carefully inspect the cardboard carton and its con-
tents for physical damage. If damage is noticed, no-
tify your dealer immediately. Delay may infringe
carriers warranty conditions. Keep all packing for
possible future transportation!
heck carefully the serial number of the antenna switch with the Table of
Individual Data (Table 2-1). If you find any discrepancies notify your dealer
immediately to have your warranty information corrected.
Serial Number: ...................
B D code: positive inverted
Table 2-1. Individual Data
2-2. Place select on and mechan cal mount
When selecting the mounting place have in mind the following consider-
ations:
* Keep the grounding length as short as practical.
* Minimize the coaxial cable length. Normally a place near the antennas area
(a bit longer common and control cables) would save length from multiple
antenna cables.
* Keep the highest frequency cables as short as possible even if for the
lower frequencies the cables become longer.
* The antenna switch design is suitable for outdoor mounting. Neverthe-
less, if you select (or make especially for it) a shady and dry place, the an-
tenna selector materials would age slowly, i.e. last longer.
7
* Two holes, 9mm diameter and 120mm distanced are available on the
mounting bracket to firm it to the mounting base - see Fig 2-1.

* The principal operating position of the antenna selector is with the cover
up (connectors pointing down), but when it is indoor used any position is
OK.
2-3. Connect ons
onnections must be accomplished in the order described below, before
you apply power supply or control to the antenna switch.
a) First tighten the lightning protection grounding leads under either of the
two wing nuts of the antenna switch.
b) Preparation of input control cable.
A 6-wire shielded cable should be used for the input control. The needed
wire cross-section depends on the distance from the antenna switch to the
control unit (for instance A OM2000S automatic antenna selector) in your
station. You can determine cable specifications proportionally from the fol-
lowing table:
able lenght,
meters (feet)
maximum
wire cross-section,
mm² (AWG, SWG)
6x, minimum
wire diameter,
mm (inch/1000)
6x, minimum
10 (33) 0.04 (31, 34) 0.23 (9)
20 (65) 0.08 (28, 30) 0.32 (12)
50 (165) 0.2 (24, 25) 0.51 (20)
125 (400) 0.5 (20, 21) 0.81 (32)
250 (800) 1.0 (17, 18) 1.15 (45)
Before trimming and soldering the first cable end, thread all connector ac-
cessories on the cable end in the following order:
- the hollow nut (oriented with the smaller diameter to the cable end),
- the first of the two washers,
- the plastic ring,
- the second washer.

Solder all 6 wires to contacts 1, 2, and 4 through 7. Solder the shield to
contact nr.3:

Now you can assembly the connector accessories. Tighten the plastic ring
of the 7-contact connector firmly in order to protect it hermetically.
When you use the A OM2000S automatic antenna selector, before trim-
ming and soldering the second cable end, thread the hollow nut of the 8
contact connector oriented with the smaller diameter to the cable end.
Solder all 6 wires and the shield to mate directly by numbers to the 8 -
contact connector for the selector side as follows:

When not A OM2000S but another control unit is used, the following in-
formation may be needed to prepare the input control cable:

ontact: Signal name: Functional description:
nr. 1 +27V Power supply input, 150mA maximum
nr. 2 RDY Output: high when ready to transmit
nr. 3 GND ommon ground, shield
nr. 4 *A1 Input: B D bit 0; low when A0 selected
nr. 5 *A2 Input: B D bit 1; low when A2 selected
nr. 6 *A4 Input: B D bit 2; low when A4 selected
nr. 7 *A8 Input: B D bit 3; low when A8 selected
See S.4-1a and fig. 4-1for details on how the input and output signals are to
be used.
N O T E
When the ode Levels selector is in pos.1", all low
levels become high and vice versa.
c) onnect the common coaxial cable to the OMMON connector and
then all antenna cables to the respective antenna connectors. Make a list of
antenna number destinations. Place the plastic protection caps onto all free
antenna connectors and keep the rest for possible connection changes and/
or shipment.
d) onnect the control cable the last.
3. OPERATION
After following all instructions in S.2, you can power on the antenna switch
and control it through the control cable.
3-1. OPERATION IN THE ACOM SYSTEM
Operation using the A OM2000S antenna selector, the A OM2000A HF
linear amplifier, and/or the A OM DOS application for P is automatic. No
operator intervention is needed to change antennas.
Anyway, you may still change antennas manually from the selector
UP/DOWN buttons or amplifiers R U as well.
