General 2. GENERAL This document describes the installation of the 915 MHz WRM-radio (XB Pro 900 HP) in the RDS-32 -meter. 3. RDS-32 METER PREPARATION RF-MODULE PREPARATION The preparation is as follows: NOTE! The antenna is fragile and must not be bent. The RF-module contacts (1-10) are cut to a length of 2,5 mm as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. The cutting and trimming of the contacts of the RF-module contacts. 1.

Final ass 4. FINAL ASSEMBLY AND THE FUNCTIONALITY TESTING THE RF-MODULE INSTALLATION The RF-module is installed on top of the KRO-board on the HV-convertor’s interference shield as follows: 1. The interference shield’s surfaces are cleaned with rubbing alcohol to remove any grease residues. 2. The askew edge of the interference shield is covered with two layers of polyethene adhesive tape 21220033 as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6.
Final ass 4. The RF-module is attached on top of the interference shield as shown in Figure 8. When viewed from the side, the contacts of the RF-module must not come in contact with the interference shield’s slanted sides (Figure 9.). The RF-module must be pressed for a while to ensure that the adhesive tape has attached itself properly. The antenna is positioned as shown in the pictures below. Antenna type is: 24AWG Full length: 75mm, Gain: 1.
Final ass THE INSTALLATION OF THE KRO-BOARD IN THE RDS-32 CASING The installation of the component board in the casing is performed as in the assembly instruction 2096 7154. The proper positioning of the RF-module antenna must be ensured as in Figure 10. Figure 10. The positioning of the RF-module antenna within the RDS-32 casing.
Calibrati 5. CALIBRATION AND TESTING CALIBRATION AND TESTING The calibration and testing are carried out as in the instruction 2096 7154. THE PRODUCTION CLIMATE TESTS The climate tests are performed according to instruction 2096 7177. THE TESTING OF THE RF-MODULE 5.3.1 THE RF-MODULE TESTING The testing of the RF-module is performed after the production climate tests.
Finalizat 15. Measure the currency from the external output. The currency must be at a level of 1 ... 2mA with spikes of 10mA in between. 16. Remove the external power input from the Binder connector. 17. Set the transmission interval at ’30s’ from the meter’s menu and switch the meter off thereafter. 18. Once the radio receiver has been connected to the computer and the settings in the TERMINAL-program are correct, the phases 1-6 and 13—17 can be repeated. 6.
