3 Security
Elenos products meet the safety standards required for this type of equipment.
3.1 Precautions
However, the user must also observe the precautions listed below:
• Original equipment configuration must not be altered. Upon receipt it you must
check that it correspond to the order and in case of non-compliance you must im-
mediately inform Elenos.
• Check periodically and after the occurrence of a fault the protection devices (such
devices against overvoltage, overcurrent, breaker circuit, etc...)
• For safety and to ensure the device integrity is absolutely forbidden to put it in fun-
ction and/or to handle it with open doors and/or without protection panels and/or
devoid earth connection, which must be always top quality and in accordance with
standards. It is also forbidden to disconnect and/or to modify the means protection
instruments of equipment.
• Before starting work, the equipment must be isolated from the network. Disconnec-
tor must be verified by inspection.
• The equipment should operate only at expected voltage. Incorrect voltage can cause
irreparable damage to the equipment and operator. That statement is on the label
of the product, usually located in the wrapping. This should not be removed for any
reason, even if the equipment was resold.
• Pictograms are applied on the equipment, indicating safety precautions that must
be carefully respected by anyone who is about to use it. Failure to comply with the
requirements raises the Manufacturer to be liable for any damage to persons or
thing which may arise and makes the operator himself solely responsible.

Security 13
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
• To ensure a correct function you must not obstruct the fans. Do not place the unit
near heat sources, near flammable materials, or in closed installations without pro-
per air circulation.
• You must observe the rules relating to fire and security of the station.
• You must ensure that any person who uses a transmitter with dangerous voltage
knows artificial respiration and cardiac massage, and you must train users on first
aid in case of need. In station with electrical equipment you should hang in a visible
position instructions of the phases of assistance to persons involved in an accident
and equip the station of a first-aid kit. It is advisable to have a plan of action for
any operations connected to the emergency, pubblic or private, institutions, that are
readily available to all persons in the room.

WARNING:
If medical assistance is not available within one hour, and the casualty is conscious and
is not trying to vomit, to give them a solution of salt and soda: 1 full teaspoon of salt
and half teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda (sodium bicarbonate) for every 250 ml of
water (neither hot nor cold). To allow the casualty to sip slowly 4 times (1/2 glass) over
a period of 15 minutes.
Stop if the casualty was vomiting. Do not give alcohol.
B) Breathing (fig. b) :
fig.b
• if not breathing, start artificial respiration
• incline the head
• close the nostrils
• apply mouth to the casualty’s mouth
• perform 4 quick respirations
• remember to start breathing again immediately

WARNING:
IN ANY CASE CALL A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY
The room must be equipped with an adequate fresh air and filtered from dust, with
uid
or other animals) and precautions should be taken to prevent entry of liquids or other
materials.
The device can operate properly if the temperature is between -5 °C to +45 °C, with
relative humidity to 95%, non-condensing to +40 °C.

It’s recommended the use of a network isolating transformer and of an energy reduc-
tion network for high voltage discharges.
Provide a protected switchgear (circuit breaker or fuse) with breaking and flow properly
related to the device absorption characteristics.

5.6 Protections
The device has a protection system, partly integrated and partly optional, related to har-
dware and software.

This contributes largely to make the apparatus insensitive to the conditions in which he
is forced to operate.
The IPC also helps to optimize the RF efficiency, leading the MOSFET to work at maxi-
mum efficiency, minimizing the total power consumption.

5.6.1.3 Safety Management (option “Lifextender”) ®
The Safety Management is a set of algorithms that perform real-time analysis of tran-
smitter functional state and operates to maintain the output power provided, depen-
ding on the type and extent of any anomalies (internal or environmental) to be arise.
The Safety Management can command a reduction in output power depending on the
anomaly seriousness that has occurred. The algorithms operate at different levels and in
es
different sections of the apparatus: Thermal Management on RF group, Current Manage-
ment on power supply, Thermal Management on power supply, Fault Management on
RF group, Fault Management on power supply, Cooling Management on fans group.

The apparatus is designed for single-phase (two-phase) 230VAC power. Where the po-
wer supply is single-phase 115VAC, the guaranteed maximum power can be reduced in
accordance with what shown in the table below.
WARNING: to connect the power cord to the terminals of the apparatus, to be sure
fig.b2
that the cord is DISCONNECTED from the mains, or strictly unpowered.
First verify that the available power supply is adequate, then apply the conductors of
phase and neutral (or phase1 and phase2) to the supply terminals (fig.c1).

7.4.1 PC connection
This connection is useful to examine in detail the operating parameters, for example
during the performance evaluation or repair activities.
In the mask opens you select the port from which to communicate (in the current
example is COM1), then press the Configure button to enter in the settings screen. The
parameters to set are: 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow
control.

To communicate with the equipment you need to make a final step, to put the address.
This step is crucial because each device, to be queried and managed remotely, must be
properly addressed. In this case, the following alpha-numeric sequence must be put: 2
1 i x x. With xx the address of the machine.
If the machine is in local mode you can only see data, if the machine is in remote mode
you can also set the parameters directly from the PC.

To telemetry connection a cable must be inserted into “EIA485” connector, DB9, on the
rear panel of the machine.
This cable ships with telemetry unit.
To details on the pin out see “External connectors description” paragraph in “Product
description” section.
The link may also be a machine running.
For more information, please see “Telemetry” manual.

To exchange unit connection, if the equipment is not a reserve, a shielded cable must
be inserted into “TC/TS”, DB25, on the rear panel of the machine.
If the device is a reserve to use an additional shielded cable to insert in “Profiles” con-
nector, DB25, in the rear panel of the machine.
This last cable will connect to the audio matrix, if there is an audio matrix.
These cables ship with the unit of exchange.
To details on the pin out see “External connectors description” paragraph in “Product
description” section.
The signal link may also be a machine running, no the RF link.
For more information, please see “Exchange unit” manual.

To use the ETG as an exciter of a higher power amplifier to connect the ETG RF output
connector to amplifier RF input connector through a RF coaxial cable, which is capable
of withstanding the maximum power of ETG. In addition to the RF connection, should be
included a cable to insert in TC/TS connector, DB25, on the rear panel.
This cable ships on demand and it’s important check exciter functionality of the in the
case of amplifier protection (eg exciter shutdown in case of ROS / VSWR amplifier pro-
tection).
To details on the pin out see “External connectors description” paragraph in “Product
description” section.
Warning : to RF connection the machine must be turned off.
For more information, please see “Amplifier” manuals.
