PA-560W User Manual Version 1.0 01/14/2014 Page 4 of 11 1 Product Appearance 1.1 Front Panel  RF Button  Press the RF button to turn the RF signal ON (inside blue light will light up).  Press the RF button again to turn the RF signal OFF (inside blue light will be off).  LED_PWR  Blue light will be on when the DC voltage of internal power supply is within the normal range (48 VDC ~ 52 VDC).  Blue light will flash when the DC voltage of internal power supply is out of the normal range (48 VDC ~ 52 VDC).  Blue light will be off when the external power supply is turned off, or internal power supply module does not work.  LED_FWD  Blue light will be on when RF_OUT has power output.  Blue light will be off when the RF button is turned off, or the PA enters the auto-protection mode and therefore shuts down its RF output. There are several situations which will result in auto-protection mode, such as the input power is too high, the reflected power is too high, or the temperature is too high.  LED_RFL  Red light will be off when the reflected power is normal. (Threshold configurable)  Red light will be on when the reflected power is too high. It may be caused by no load connected to port RF_OUT. In this case, the PA will enter auto-protection mode and there will be no RF output.
PA-560W User Manual Version 1.0 01/14/2014 Page 5 of 11  LED_TEMP  Red light will be off when temperature is normal (≤ 140 oF).  Red light will be on when system temperature is too high (> 140 oF). It may be caused by a broken cooling system. In this situation, the PA will enter auto-protection mode and there will be no RF output. Note: 1) The front fan covers can be removed to clean the air intake path. No screw driver is needed, and no disassembly of the PA is required. 2) When a warning occurs and the PA enters auto-protection mode, the only way to clear this state is to cycle power on the PA module once the problem(s) is resolved. Otherwise all warning LEDs will remain on even if the problem(s) no longer exists.
PA-560W User Manual Version 1.0 01/14/2014 Page 6 of 11 1.2 Back Panel  RF_IN  Connector: N  Impedance: 50 Ω  Rated Power: +1 dBm ± 1 dB @ 700 W output  Note: If input power from RF_IN is lower than rated input value, the output power will be lower than rated output power accordingly. This is because the PA has a fixed gain of 56 dB ± 1 dB. If the input level from RF_IN is higher than the rated value, it will result in RF output distortion and performance deterioration. If the input level is more than 1 dB higher than the rated value or the output power is higher than 720 W, it may trigger the current-limiting function of the internal power supply. The PA will enter the auto-protection mode, and there will be no RF output.  RF_OUT  Connector: 7/16 DIN  Impedance: 50 Ω  Rated Power: 700 W (ATSC) before filter  Note: RF_OUT must be connected with a load, otherwise the PA will enter the auto-protection mode and there will be in no RF output. Please note that the PA is designed to withstand any load conditions, including no load at all, without damaging the PA. However it is strongly suggested to have a load connected with proper impedance.
PA-560W User Manual Version 1.0 01/14/2014 Page 7 of 11  MONITOR (loop out of RF_OUT)  Connector: BNC female  Impedance: 50 Ω  Rated Power: 0 dBm ± 3 dB @ 700 W  Note: It is OK to leave this port open without load.  RS232-A  Connector: DB9-M  Note: Connected to REMOTE (RS232) port of ACT-5X, which is used for control and communication between the PA and the exciter.  RS232-B:  Connector: DB9-M  Note: Reserved  RJ45  Connector: 10M/100M Ethernet  Note: For customers’ remote control to the PA. Note: 1) The back fan covers can also be removed to clean the air intake path. No screw driver is needed, and no disassembly of the PA is required.

Values may change. 2) Operating in abnormal conditions may result in damage to the equipment. Long operating hours in severe environments may reduce the reliability of the entire system, which may cause permanent damage to equipment. Make sure all electrical interface characteristics and environmental parameters are within the defined range listed above before operating this equipment.
PA-560W User Manual Version 1.0 01/14/2014 Page 9 of 11 3 Control Interface 3.1 Local Control Interface Local control and monitoring of the PA unit is accomplished via the ACT-5X Exciter front panel user interface. Use a standard serial cable to connect the PA D9 RS232-A port to the ACT-5X Exciter D9 REMOTE (RS232) port. With this connection established, all the PA information will be displayed in the PAC sub-menu in the advanced menu of ACT-5X exciter, as shown below: Table 1 PAC sub-menu in Advanced Menu VOL_9 VOL_12 VOL_50 PA_FWD PA_REF GV VSWR PA_TEMP PA__LVL CUR1_50 Cur2_50 Cur3_50 Cur4_50 Value 8.72V 12.07V 49.37V 694.22WW 1W 1.64V 1.07 100.88℉ 560W 12.06A 11.25A 11.18A 11.67A Content Voltage of 9V DC supply Voltage of 12V DC supply Voltage of 50V DC supply Forward power of PA Reflected power of PA Grid Voltage (bias voltage) Voltage standing wave ratio Temperature of PA 700W(ATSC) Current 1 Current2 Current3 Current 4 Note: The displayed settings and numbers in the tables below are for illustration purposes only and may be different from those in actual use. A second sub-menu is available for configuring the PA networking settings. Enter the main menu of ACT-5X exciter and locate the PA_CNFG sub-menu to setup the IP, GATEWAY and MASK PA networking parameters.

PA-560W User Manual Version 1.0 01/14/2014 Page 10 of 11 3.2 Web Interface Enter the IP address of the PA (the default value is 192.168.1.210) in a web browser's address bar to cause a login window to pop up. There are two tiers of web interface available. The first “guest” tier is limited in monitoring and control, allowing users to retrieve information such as PA status, network configuration, and alarms. The guest account is accessed with a user name and password of "guest" and "guest" (case sensitive). The second “admin” tier provides full status and control of the PA and is accessed with a username and password of "anywavecom" and "anywavecom" (case sensitive). The screenshots below highlight the status and control available via the guest and admin web interfaces.
PA-560W User Manual Version 1.0 01/14/2014 Page 11 of 11 Note: 1) To refresh the status of the PA unit, one could manually click the “Query” button(s) on the page, or set up the “AUTO-REFRESH-CYCLE” for the auto periodic refreshing of status. 2) Configuration settings including “POWER_DEGREE”, “EXCITER_TYPE”, internet access settings and “REFRESH-CYCLK” may be modified via this PA web GUI. 3.3 Serial Port Interface The port RS232-B of PA is reserved to be used as serial port interface for remote control.
