VX150 TO VX2 TROUBLESHOOTING MANUAL RESPONDING TO ALARMS
SECTION 3.1: RESPONDING TO ALARMS

This section provides instructions you need when performing troubleshooting on the VX150 to VX2
transmitter. This section includes the following topics:
 Corrective Maintenance
 Electrostatic Protection - see page 3.1.3
 Identifying and Troubleshooting an Alarm - see page 3.1.4
 Replacement Procedures - see page 3.1.17
If none of the procedures and alarms described in this section address your problem, contact Nautel for
assistance. See “Technical Support” in the Installation Manual.
Corrective Maintenance
Corrective maintenance procedures consist of identifying and correcting defects or deficiencies that
arise during transmitter operation. Local and/or remote alarm signals are generated when a
malfunction occurs. If an alarm condition is caused by a malfunction in the RF power stage, the
transmitter may maintain operation at a reduced RF output level. The nature of the fault – and station
policy – will dictate whether an immediate maintenance response is necessary. Fault analysis and
rectification may be conducted from three different levels, with a different technical competence level
required for each: on-air troubleshooting, remote or local, and off-air troubleshooting.
CAUTION! The transmitter contains many solid state devices that may be damaged
if subjected to excessive heat or high voltage transients. Take every effort to ensure
that circuits are not overdriven or disconnected from their loads while turned on.
On-Air Troubleshooting
On-air troubleshooting can be performed from a remote location, or locally at the transmitter site.
Remote Troubleshooting
Remote on-air troubleshooting consists of monitoring the transmitter's radiated signal using an on-air
monitor or via a LAN connection, and observing the status of each remote fault alarm indicator.
Information obtained from these sources should enable an operator to decide whether an alarm
response may be deferred to a more convenient time, an immediate corrective action must be taken, or
VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01 PAGE 3.1.1

if a standby transmitter must be enabled (if one is available). It is recommended that the significance of
remote indications, and the appropriate responses, be incorporated into a station's standard operating
procedures. Refer to “Identifying and Troubleshooting an Alarm” on page 3.1.4 to determine the remedial
action required for a given fault.
Local Troubleshooting
Local on-air troubleshooting consists of monitoring the transmitter's integral meters and fault alarm
indicators. Analysis of this data will normally identify the type of fault, and in most cases will determine
what corrective action must be taken. Refer to “Identifying and Troubleshooting an Alarm” on page 3.1.4
to determine the remedial action required for a given fault.
Off-Air Troubleshooting
Off-air troubleshooting must be performed when routine on-air calibration adjustments will not restore
operation.
It is recommended that the transmitter’s output be connected to a precision 50  resistive dummy load
(rated for at least the maximum transmitter power rating) before starting off-air troubleshooting
procedures. If an appropriate dummy load is not available, troubleshooting for a majority of faults can
be performed with RF power turned off. The transmitter may remain connected to its antenna system
for these procedures.
NOTE: Reduce the RF output level to a minimal value when troubleshooting faults in the power
amplifier stage while the transmitter’s RF output is connected to the antenna system.
PAGE 3.1.2 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01

Electrostatic Protection
The transmitter's assemblies contain semiconductor devices that are susceptible to damage from
electrostatic discharge. The following precautions must be observed when handling an assembly which
contains these devices.
CAUTION! Electrostatic energy is produced when two insulating materials are
rubbed together. A person wearing rubber-soled shoes, walking across a nylon
carpet or a waxed floor, can generate an extremely large electrostatic charge. This
effect is magnified during periods of low humidity. Semiconductor devices such as
integrated circuits, field-effect transistors, thyristors and Schottky diodes may be
damaged by this high voltage unless adequate precautions are taken.
Electrical Discharging of Personnel

Personnel should be electrically discharged by a suitable grounding system (e.g., anti-static mats,
grounding straps) when removing an assembly from the transmitter, and while handling the assembly
for maintenance procedures.
Handling/Storage
An assembly should be placed in an anti-static bag when it is not installed in a host transmitter, or
when it is not undergoing maintenance. Electronic components should be stored in anti-static
materials.
Tools/Test Equipment
Testing and maintenance equipment – including soldering and unsoldering tools – should be suitable
(i.e., grounded tip) for contact with static sensitive semiconductor devices.
Stress Current Protection

Every precaution should be taken to ensure the static sensitive semiconductor devices are protected
from unnecessary stress current. This is achieved by ensuring that current is not flowing when an
electrical connection is broken, and that voltages are not present on external control/monitoring circuits
when they are connected.
VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01 PAGE 3.1.3

Identifying and Troubleshooting an Alarm

You can identify an alarm locally by viewing the front panel user interface (UI) (see “Front Panel Alarm
Checks”) or remotely by viewing the remote AUI’s Alarms page (see “Remote AUI Alarms Page Checks”
on page 3.1.7).
Front Panel Alarm Checks

There two ways to check for alarms on the front panel:
 Fault LED
 Alarms Screen
Fault LED
See Figure 3.1.1. The FAULT LED on the right-hand side of the display indicates that a fault is present.
The FAULT LED will be either off or red. When illuminated, the transmitter has encountered a summary
fault. Use the remote AUI or local UI to view the status of the transmitter.
Figure 3.1.1: Transmitter Front Panel (VX1 shown for reference)
FAULT LED
When a fault is present, the transmitter may still produce an RF output. In this case, or if the transmitter
has shut down, you should schedule and commence more in-depth fault diagnosis. See “Alarms Screen”
on page 3.1.5.
PAGE 3.1.4 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01

Alarms Screen
If an alarm exists and is currently being recognized by the transmitter system, it is displayed in the
Alarms screen (Dashboard -> Alarms) of the front panel display (see Figure 3.1.2).
Figure 3.1.2: Alarms Screen
RESET LATCHED ALARMS
Table 3.1.1 on page 3.1.9 contains a column for most alarms that can occur, sorted alpha-numerically.
The Description and Troubleshooting Action column provides a brief description of the alarm,
troubleshooting tips and a cross-reference to more troubleshooting, if applicable.
1. Scroll through the Alarms screen to view the active faults.
2. Attempt to clear any latching alarms by pressing the Reset Latched Alarms button in the Main
Dashboard -> Alarms screen. If the alarm persists, it will not clear from the display.
3. Locate the alarm name in Table 3.1.1 on page 3.1.9 to determine the cause of the alarm and
perform any recommended procedures in the Description and Troubleshooting Action column.
This may also lead to replacing a suspect PWB, power supply or fan, as detailed in “Replacement
Procedures” on page 3.1.17.
NOTE: Before undertaking any troubleshooting, record all meter readings and note if any other alarms
are displayed on the Alarms screen. record all alarms.
NOTE: Table 3.1.1 on page 3.1.9 contains a column for most alarms that can occur, sorted alpha-
numerically, including both the names displayed on the front panel and, if different, the remote AUI.
The Description and Troubleshooting Action column provides a description of the alarm,
troubleshooting tips, and a link to detailed troubleshooting, as applicable.
4. If troubleshooting and subsequent replacement of a suspect PWB or module causes the alarm to
disappear from the Alarms screen, the alarm has been successfully cleared. If the fault condition
does not clear, contact Nautel.
VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01 PAGE 3.1.5

Remote AUI Alarms Page Checks

If an alarm exists and is being recognized by the transmitter, it is displayed on the Alarms page (see
Figure 3.1.3). The warning symbol in the upper, right section of the remote AUI dashboard (any page)
will be amber or red when an alarm is present.
Figure 3.1.3: AUI Alarms Page
1. Click the warning symbol (or select Menu -> Alarms) to go to the Alarms page (see Figure 3.1.3).
View the list of active faults. Alarms are listed by their name (Alarm column), and then by severity
(Alarm Detail column) [single orange ! indicates low severity (RF output not affected); single red !
indicates medium severity (RF output is reduced); two red ! indicates high severity (RF output is
inhibited)].
2. Attempt to clear any latching alarms by pressing the Reset Latched Alarms button on the bottom
banner of the page. If the alarm persists, it will not be cleared from the display.
3. Locate the alarm name in Table 3.1.1 on page 3.1.9 to determine the cause of the alarm and
perform any recommended procedures in the Description and Troubleshooting Action column.
This may also lead to replacing a suspect PWB, power supply or fan, as detailed in “Replacement
Procedures” on page 3.1.17.
PAGE 3.1.6 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01

NOTE: Table 3.1.1 on page 3.1.9 contains a column for most alarms that can occur, sorted
alphanumerically for each sub-system, including both the names displayed on the remote AUI and, if
different, the front panel display. The Description and Troubleshooting Action column provides a brief
description of the alarm, troubleshooting tips and a cross-reference to more detailed troubleshooting,
as applicable.
4. If troubleshooting and subsequent replacement of a suspect PWB or module causes the alarm to
disappear from the Alarms page, the alarm has been successfully cleared. If the fault condition
does not clear, contact Nautel.
NOTE: Before undertaking any troubleshooting, record all remote AUI meter readings and note if any
other alarms are displayed on the Alarms page. Record all alarms. The most convenient way to do this
is by using the remote AUI’s Menu -> Reports page to download a report of the Alarm History (see
“Alarm History” in the Operations & Maintenance Manual). Another method is to use a web browser
over a LAN connection to save screen shots of critical status, meter and alarm pages. Go to the
Dashboard -> Meters page to view (and save) detailed information (see “Viewing Meters” in the
Operations & Maintenance Manual).

Table 3.1.1: Troubleshooting Alarms
Alarm Name Description and Troubleshooting Action

Analog Audio PWB +12V This alarm occurs if the +12 V supply in the analog audio PWB is 10% lower or 10% higher
Fail than the desired value. Check the output voltage of the 12 V power supply module (U2). If
necessary, replace the 12 V power supply module (see ????). There may also be a problem
with the controller’s power supply PWB.
Analog Audio PWB DC

Voltage Fail
Analog Audio PWB Fail/

Missing
Analog Left Audio Low This alarm indicates the analog left audio input level is too low or is not applied. The
transmitter takes no action on this alarm.
Analog Right Audio Low This alarm indicates the analog right audio input level is too low or is not applied. The
transmitter takes no action on this alarm.
Audio Changeover This alarm occurs if the main audio source has been lost, and the exciter has switched to the
backup source as configured by the user.
Audio Player Digital Low This alarms occurs if the audio player is in use on the SBC, but no digital audio is detected by
the controller.
Audio Processor Offline This alarm occurs if the transmitter is configured to include an Orban Inside audio processor,
but it is not communicating with the processor on the internal serial bus. Check all
connections to the Orban Inside audio processor card
Audio Processor Output This alarm occurs if the transmitter is configured to include an Orban Inside audio processor,
Fail but it is not detecting audio from the processor. Check all connections to the Orban Inside
audio processor card.
Composite 1 Low This alarm indicates the composite 1 audio input level is too low. The transmitter takes no
action on this alarm.
Composite 2 Low This alarm indicates the composite 2 audio input level is too low. The transmitter takes no
action on this alarm.
Configuration File Not This alarm occurs when the controller does not find a valid configuration file to load at
Found power-up. This alarm is unlikely and may clear when the correct settings are entered.
Delaying Turn On This alarm occurs, if the turn-on delay function is enabled, and transmitter is not permitted
turn-on until the delay period elapses. The turn-on delay function is enabled upon an ac
power failure and is typically used to add delay for use with an external generator.
Digital AES 1 Audio Low This alarm indicates the digital AES 1 audio input level is too low. Suspect a problem with the
external audio processor or studio feed. The transmitter takes no action on this alarm.
Digital AES 2 Audio Low This alarm indicates the digital AES 1 audio input level is too low. Suspect a problem with the
external audio processor or studio feed. The transmitter takes no action on this alarm.
PAGE 3.1.8 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01


Entered Firmware Upgrade This alarm occurs when the exciter is in “firmware upgrade” mode. It should only be
displayed during a transmitter software upgrade.
Exciter +12V Fail This alarm occurs if the +12 V supply in the exciter PWB is 10% lower or 10% higher than
the desired value. Check the output voltage of the 12 V power supply module (U2). If
necessary, replace the 12 V power supply module (see ????). There may also be a problem
with the controller’s power supply PWB.
Exciter Audio Reset
Exciter DC Voltage Fail
Exciter Failure
External Interlock This alarm occurs when the external interlock input wired to the EXT INTLK terminal is open.
The transmitter will not be able to enable its RF output. Check the interlock connection on
the rear of the transmitter. If the interlock connection is intact, check that all external
interlock switches are closed. If no problem is found with the connection at the transmitter or
any of the external interlock switches, suspect a problem with the interlock circuitry on the
exciter/control PWB (A1).
Fan1/2 Fail This alarm occurs if the speed of cooling fan 1 is below 3000 RPM (half of its nominal value
of 6000 RPM). If either fan 1 or 2 fail, the transmitter takes no action (no effect on the RF
output). If the alarm occurs for fans 1 or 2, check the connection between the indicated fan
and the PS Distribution PWB (A2). If these connections look OK, replace the indicated fan
(see “Cooling fan replacement” on page 1-42). If the alarm still occurs after the fan has been
replaced, suspect the PS distribution PWB.
FPGA Version Mismatch
Forward Power Shutdown This alarm occurs if the transmitter tries to reduce the forward power below minimum (?? W)
due to repeated Forward Power Limiting alarms. The transmitter latches off. See Forward
Power Limiting for troubleshooting tips
Front Panel User Interface This alarm occurs if there is a fault with the front panel user interface (UI), preventing it from
Failure being used to control the transmitter. The transmitter will automatically switch to remote
control mode to allow use of the AUI or digital I/O.
High Ambient Temperature This alarm is indication only and occurs if the transmitter’s ambient temperature exceeds
60°C (140°F). Check the intake air filter or cooling fans.
High PA Temperature This alarm occurs if the power amplifier’s heatsink temperature exceeds 85°C (185°F). This
alarm is most likely caused by excessive ambient temperature, a fan failure or blockage, or
excessive power amplifier dissipation. This alarm will clear when the power
amplifier’s heatsink temperature decreases to 75°C (167°F).
VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01 PAGE 3.1.9


High SWR This alarm occurs if the transmitter's average reflected power exceeds the high SWR
threshold (?? W). The transmitter takes no action on this alarm. Inspect the antenna and
transmission line system for damage or de-tuning. If there are no major issues with the
antenna network that would cause an impedance change (icing for example), suspect the
Combiner Interface PWB (see “Combiner Interface PWB Replacement” on page 1-50)output
power probe PWB (A7) (see “Output power probe PWB replacement” on page 1-45).
High SWR Shutdown This alarm occurs if the transmitter tries to reduce the forward power below a level that is
equivalent to a 3:1 VSWR (forward power of ?? W) at the SWR Foldback threshold (reflected
power of ?? W) due to a gradually degrading load match. This alarm causes the transmitter
to latch off. Inspect the antenna and transmission line system for damage or de-tuning. If
there are no major issues with the antenna network that would cause an impedance change
(icing for example), suspect the Combiner Interface PWB (A12) (see “Combiner Interface
PWB Replacement” on page 1-50.
Host Not Booted This alarm indicates that the controller’s host has not finished booting. The remote AUI will
not yet be available. Occurrence of this alarm is normal for approximately one to five minutes
while the host is booting, immediately after ac power has been applied/restored or after a
software upgrade. If this alarm continues to occur more than 30 minutes after ac power has
been applied to the transmitter, cycle (turn off, then on) the ac power. If the alarm persists
after 30 minutes, replace the Exciter/Control PWB (A1) (see “Exciter/Control PWB
Replacement” on page 1-46).
Host Not Responding This alarm indicates that the microcontroller (host) that runs the remote interfacing
applications is not communicating with the transmitter’s primary microcontroller (DSP). If the
watchdog function is enabled, the DSP will automatically reset the host. If this alarm persists
for more than 10 minutes, try cycling power (off, then on) to the transmitter. If the alarm
persists, replace the Exciter/Control PWB (A1) if necessary (see “Exciter/Control PWB
Replacement” on page 1-46).
IPA Failure This alarm occurs if the IPA Output Low alarm is present and the measured IPA current is
below 225 mA. The transmitter takes no action on this alarm. See IPA Output Low for
troubleshooting tips.
IPA Output High This alarm occurs if the pre-amp/IPA PWB's forward power is greater than the IPA Output
High threshold (130%/36 W). If this condition persists, replace the pre-amp/IPA PWB (A5)
(see “Pre-amp/IPA PWB replacement” on page 1-42). The transmitter takes no action on this
alarm. If this alarm persists after replacing the pre-amp/IPA PWB, suspect the Combiner
Interface PWB (A12) (see “Combiner Interface PWB Replacement” on page 1-50) or the
Exciter/Control PWB (A1) (see “Exciter/Control PWB Replacement” on page 1-46).
PAGE 3.1.10 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01


IPA Output Low This alarm occurs if the pre-amp/IPA PWB's forward power is less than the IPA Output Low
threshold (70%/14.4 W). This alarm causes the controller to limit the PA voltage to 30 V.
Check for a +48V Supply Fail alarm and follow the associated troubleshooting procedure if
present. IPA Fail and Pre-amp Fail alarms may also be present. If no associated alarms are
present, turn RF off and run the bias routine in the front panel’s Main Menu -> System
Settings -> Calibration menu. If the alarm persists, enable RF and use a digital multimeter to
measure the voltage between pad B on Pre-amp/IPA PWB (pre-amp bias) and chassis
(ground) and also between pad C on Pre-amp/IPA PWB (IPA bias) and chassis (ground). If the
voltage is less than 1 V at either of these points, suspect the Exciter/Control PWB (A1). If the
voltage is greater than 1 V at both of these points, use a digital multimeter to measure
between pad E (IPA volts) on the Pre-amp IPA PWB and chassis (ground). If the measured
voltage is not within an acceptable range (between +43 V and +48 V), with ac power off,
perform a continuity check across F1 of the PS Distribution PWB (A2). If the measurement is
greater than 1 W, replace the fuse (Nautel Part # FA57 in the ancillary kit). If the
measurement is less than 1 W, or replacing the fuse does not clear the alarm, replace the
Pre-amp/IPA PWB (A5) (see “Pre-amp/IPA PWB replacement” on page 1-42). If the voltage
on pad E is acceptable, use a digital multimeter to measure between pad D (pre-amp volts)
on the Pre-amp IPA PWB and chassis (ground). If the measured voltage is not within an
acceptable range (between +43 V and +48 V), replace the Pre-amp/IPA PWB (A5) (see “Pre-
amp/IPA PWB replacement” on page 1-42). If the voltage is acceptable, or replacing the pre-
amp/IPA PWB does not clear the alarm condition, suspect the Combiner Interface PWB (A12)
(see “Combiner Interface PWB Replacement” on page 1-50) or the Exciter/Control PWB (A1)
(see “Exciter/Control PWB Replacement” on page 1-46).
Low Forward Power This alarm occurs if the transmitter's average forward power falls below the low forward
power threshold (defaulted to 50% of the preset power level and is user adjustable) due to
PA failures, fan failures, SWR foldback or a pre-amp/IPA failure. The transmitter takes no
action on this alarm. Check for associated alarms, and follow the associated troubleshooting
procedure if present. If no other alarms are being indicated, with RF turned on, use a digital
multimeter to measure the voltage between pad V and pad W on any PA. If the voltage does
not fall within an acceptable range (between 2.3 V and 3 V), suspect the Exciter/Control PWB
(A1). If the voltage is within this range, perform the “PA resistance checks” on page 1-37,
else suspect the Output Power Probe PWB (A7) (see “Output power probe PWB
replacement” on page 1-45).
Missing Preset This alarm indicates that there are no presets programmed into the transmitter. The user will
not be able to enable RF without first programming a preset.
Modulation Loss This alarm, enabled by the user, indicates that the exciter’s audio modulation level is below
the level specified in the audio loss settings of the active preset (see “Mod Loss” on
page 3.2.110 of the Operations & Maintenance Manual to enable/disable this alarm and to
configure the resulting action). Depending on the setting, this alarm could trigger a preset
change, inhibit the RF or have no effect (alarm only). Check the appropriate program input(s)
and the mod loss setting for the preset.
Muted Transmitter Output For internal control only; no troubleshooting action required
VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01 PAGE 3.1.11


No External 10 MHz This alarm occurs if frequency locking to an external 10 MHz source is enabled and no
external 10 MHz is detected. The exciter will automatically switch over to the internal
10 MHz reference, and will continue to run. Check the 10 MHz input. If there are no
problems with the 10 MHz signal and connection, suspect the Exciter/Control PWB (A1).
No LAN Connection This alarm occurs if the transmitter is not detecting communication over the LAN connection.
This alarm is typically only visible in the Events Log, since it will not be transmitted when
communication is interrupted.
No One Pulse per Second This alarm occurs if the pilot phase locking to 1 PPS is enabled and the 1 PPS signal is not
present. Check the 1 PPS input. If there are no problems with the 1 PPS signal and
connection, suspect the Exciter/Control PWB (A1).The transmitter takes no action on this
alarm
Overall Summary Not displayed in AUI or UI status. Configurable as a remote output.This alarms occurs if there
are any alarms present. Check for associated alarms, and follow the associated
troubleshooting procedure, if present.
PA Fail Foldback This alarm occurs if the control system determines that the calculated dissipation in any FET
on a PA is above the high dissipation threshold (?? W), or the forward power being asked for
out of an individual PA [calculated as (output power - combiner losses) / number of active
PAs in the system] is above the PA output high threshold (400 W)(850 W for VS2.5 or 900 W
for VS3). The forward power of the transmitter will be limited to a level such that neither of
these thresholds are exceeded. Check for associated alarms. Typically, the assertion of this
alarm is the result of a PA failure or removal, or a high SWR condition. If no other alarms are
being indicated, contact Nautel for further support
PA Fail/PA1 Fail This alarm occurs if the dc input current for the PA (A7), also PA1 for VX1.5/VX2 transmitters)
has fallen below a predetermined threshold (typically less than 50% of the average PA
current of the operational PAs, or below 500 mA, whichever is lower). This may be caused by
a cabling fault on the PA, loss of PA voltage or bias, or a defective FET. The transmitter's
output power will be reduced (see Table 1.3 on page 1-31) and this condition could cause Per
PA Foldback and Reject Foldback alarms. Perform the “PA resistance checks” on page 1-37.
If there is no problem found with the PA, or the alarm still persists after replacing the PA,
suspect the PS Distribution PWB (A2).
PA2 Fail For VX1.5/VX2 transmitters only. This alarm occurs if the dc input current for PA2 (A8) has
fallen below a predetermined threshold (typically less than 50% of the average PA current of
the operational PAs, or below 500 mA, whichever is lower). This may be caused by a cabling
fault on the PA, loss of PA voltage or bias, or a defective FET. The transmitter's output power
will be reduced (see Table 1.3 on page 1-31) and this condition could cause Per PA Foldback
and Reject Foldback alarms. Perform the “PA resistance checks” on page 1-37. If there is no
problem found with the PA, or the alarm still persists after replacing the PA, suspect the PS
Distribution PWB (A2).
PAGE 3.1.12 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01


PA Power Supply AC Fail This alarm occurs if the power supply module (U3) is reporting an ac failure, indicating its ac
input voltage is less than 175 V ac. The transmitter will inhibit its RF output until the alarm is
cleared. Check the ac voltage applied to the power supply module. If the ac voltage is
acceptable, try replacing the indicated power supply module with a new module (see
“Power Supply Module Replacement” on page 3.1.23). If replacing the power
supply module does not clear the fault, suspect the PS Distribution PWB (A2).
PA Power Supply Current

Limit Foldback
PA Power Supply Fail This alarm occurs if the power supply module (U3 is reporting a PS failure, indicating its
output voltage is outside of its acceptable range. The transmitter will inhibit its RF output
until the alarm is cleared. Try replacing the indicated power supply module with a new
module (see “Power Supply Module Replacement” on page 3.1.23). If replacing the
power supply module does not clear the fault, suspect the PS Distribution PWB (A2) or the
Exciter/Control PWB (A1).
PA Power Supply Not

Compatible
PA Power Supply Not This alarm occurs if the power supply module (U3) is not being detected or has been
Detected removed. The transmitter will inhibit its RF output until the alarm is cleared. If there is a
power supply module in the transmitter, try re-seating it or replacing it with a new module
(see “Power Supply Module Replacement” on page 3.1.23). If replacing the power
supply module does not clear the fault, suspect the PS Distribution PWB (A2).
PA Power Supply Over This alarm occurs if the power supply module (U3) is reporting a high temperature alarm,
Temperature indicating its operating temperature has exceeded its internal threshold. The transmitter will
inhibit its RF output until the alarm is cleared. This alarm is most likely caused by a module
fan failure or blockage. Allow the module to cool and attempt to reset the alarm. Verify the
module turns on and its fan is operational. If the fan is not operational, inspect it for possible
blockage. If a problem is found, replace the power supply module (see “Power Supply
Module Replacement” on page 3.1.23). If there is no problem found, inspect the
transmitter’s front air filter and clean or replace as required (see Section 3, “Routine
maintenance of the Operations and Maintenance Manual). If the alarm persists, replace the
power supply module (see “Power Supply Module Replacement” on page 3.1.23). If
replacing the power supply module does not clear the fault, suspect the PS Distribution PWB
(A2).
PA PS Current Limit This alarm occurs if the transmitter is limiting its output power to avoid drawing excessive
Foldback current (?? A) from the power supply module. This may occur when there are PA failures and
the transmitter is attempting to compensate to attain the setpoint level. Check for associated
alarms, and follow the associated troubleshooting procedure if present.
PA Volts Failure This alarm indicates the PA voltage from the power supply module does not match the
requested setpoint. This is likely caused by a power supply module failure. Check the power
supply module (U3) and replace if necessary (see “Power Supply Module Replacement”
on page 3.1.23).
VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01 PAGE 3.1.13


Pilot Unsync This alarm occurs if there is no synchronization between the 10 MHz and 1PPS signals. It may
indicate that the GPS receiver is not detecting a signal. Check the GPS receiver and
antenna.The transmitter takes no action on this alarm.
PLL Unlocked This alarm indicates that the exciter’s master clock is not locked. Possible causes are an out-
of-range 10 MHz input or a hardware failure on the Exciter/Control PWB (A1). The
transmitter’s RF output is inhibited.
Rebooted Exciter This is an informational alarm only that is displayed when the watchdog timer reboots the
transmitter’s main microcontroller (DSP). Typically, this alarm will show up after an ac power
interruption.
Reboot Required This alarm indicates that exciter setup changes have been made, typically via the Hardware
Configuration page of the AUI. Typically, the DSP will reboot itself automatically; however, if
this alarm persists for more than five minutes, cycle the transmitter’s ac power (off, then on)
to store the changes.
Running Bias Routine This is an informational alarm only that is displayed when the bias routine has been initiated.
SWR Cutback This alarm occurs whenever the transmitter experiences a cutback. A cutback (reduction in
power) occurs when repeated shutback alarms occur within a prescribed time period.
Shutbacks occur when the transmitter's peak reflected power exceeds 2:1 due to a transient
SWR condition (arc or lightning) within the output transmission line or antenna system. The
transmitter shuts back and recovers to a series of cutback levels (depending on the severity
of the alarm), with each level being a 1/8th reduction in power from the previous cutback
level, starting from the preset setpoint. Inspect the output transmission line for punctures or
damage. After repairing damage, or if no damage is found, attempt to reset the latched
condition by clicking the remote AUI’s Reset Latched Alarms button in the Alarms page or
using the local front panel display (see “Resetting Alarms” on page 2-96 of the Operations
and Maintenance Manual)]. If no damage can be found, suspect a fault with the Combiner
Interface PWB (A12) (see “Combiner Interface PWB Replacement” on page 1-50) or the
Output Power Probe PWB (A7) (see “Output power probe PWB replacement” on page 1-45).
SWR Foldback This alarm occurs if the transmitter's average reflected power exceeds the SWR foldback
threshold (?? W) due to a gradually degrading load match. The forward power of the
transmitter will be limited to a level such that this threshold is not exceeded. If the load
match improves while the transmitter is producing RF output, the forward power will
increase. If the transmitter folds back to a forward power that is equivalent to a 3:1 VSWR at
the SWR Foldback threshold (forward power of ?? W), an SWR Shutback alarm occurs.
Inspect the antenna and transmission line system for damage or de-tuning. If there are no
major issues with the antenna network that would cause an impedance change (icing for
example), suspect the Combiner Interface PWB (A12) (see “Combiner Interface PWB
Replacement” on page 1-50) or the Output Power Probe PWB (A7) (see “Output power
probe PWB replacement” on page 1-45).
PAGE 3.1.14 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01


SWR Shutback This alarm occurs if the transmitter's reflected power suddenly exceeds the SWR shutback
threshold, which is the reflected power that is equivalent to a 2:1 VSWR at max power (??
W) due to a transient SWR condition (arc or lightning) within the output transmission line or
antenna system. Attempt to reset the latched condition by clicking the remote AUI’s Reset
Latched Alarms button in the Alarms page or using the local front panel display (see
“Resetting Alarms” on page 2-96 of the Operations and Maintenance Manual)]. Inspect the
output transmission line for punctures or damage. If no damage can be found, suspect the
Combiner Interface PWB (A12) (see “Combiner Interface PWB Replacement” on page 1-50)
or the Output Power Probe PWB (A7) (see “Output power probe PWB replacement” on page
1-45). See also SWR Cutback alarm
Thermal Shutdown
Unsigned DSP Image This alarm indicates that the exciter is operating with ‘unsigned code’, but is otherwise
operational. This alarm may only be displayed if the transmitter is operating with a ‘beta’
version of factory software.
Unsigned FPGA Image This alarm indicates that the exciter is operating with ‘unsigned code’, but is otherwise
operational. This alarm may only be displayed if the transmitter is operating with a ‘beta’
version of factory software.
Unsupported Audio Mode This alarm indicates that the user has selected a preset configuration for the audio
processing in the exciter that cannot be implemented. This may be due to attempting to use
the same physical input for multiple purposes, or because two incompatible modes have
been selected.
Very Low Forward Power This alarm occurs if the transmitter's average forward power falls below the very low forward
power threshold (defaulted to 12.5% of the preset power level and is user adjustable) due to
PA failures, fan failures, or SWR foldback. The transmitter takes no action on this alarm. See
Low Forward Power for troubleshooting tips.

Reference Designation Lists

Reference designation lists are provided for assemblies that are assigned an alpha-prefixed Nautel
nomenclature (e.g., NAPA40) or a numbered Nautel part (e.g., 235-8050).
To obtain the full reference designation for a specific part the Nautel configuration control number must
be located in the appropriate family tree (Figure 3.2.1 on page 3.2.4, Figure 3.2.2 on page 3.2.5, or
Figure 3.2.3 on page 3.2.6) to include the reference designation of all higher level assemblies. The
reference designation lists are presented in alphanumeric order - for each component level of the
transmitter - are divided into columns to aid in locating specific information.
Column Content
The following paragraphs provide an explanation of the purpose and contents of each column in the
part number indexes.
Component Level, Stock Code Column

This column contains the Component Level number (01 through 10, as required) and the Nautel Stock
Code (part number) assigned to each part.
Component Level
This number represents the level of a component in relation to the highest level parts list. In this case
the highest level parts list is the VX transmitter’s overall parts list, or the top block in the family tree
shown in Figure 3.2.1 on page 3.2.4, Figure 3.2.2 on page 3.2.5, or Figure 3.2.3 on page 3.2.6.
PAGE 3.2.2 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01

Components that are directly descended from the highest level parts list are component level 01. The
associated stock code and description for level 01 items appear in bold text in the reference designation
list, followed by their sub-assembly components, as applicable. Level 01 items are sorted
alphanumerically.
Components that are directly descended from component level 01 items are component level 02. The
associated stock code and description for level 02 items appear below their associated level 01
component, slightly indented, followed by their sub-assembly components, as applicable. Level 02
items are sorted alphanumerically
Component level 03 through 10 items, as applicable, descend similarly to component level 02 items,
with continuing indentations to identify each new level.
Stock Code
This number is Nautel's drawing number for Nautel manufactured parts, Nautel's configuration control
number for assemblies that are under configuration control management, or Nautel's inventory
management number for purchased parts. When a Nautel configuration control number (e.g., NAPA*) is
shown in this column, its sub-assembly reference designation items are listed below it.
NOTE: This section includes Nautel part numbers only. It does not include original equipment
manufacturer (OEM) information (i.e., vendor part numbers). Some vendor information is provided in
the Responding to Alarms section of this manual, otherwise contact Nautel to order a replacement part
or to request assistance to find a suitable replacement.

VX150 TO VX2 TROUBLESHOOTING MANUAL READING ELECTRICAL SCHEMATICS
SECTION 3.3: READING ELECTRICAL SCHEMATICS

This section contains electrical schematics and logic diagrams for the transmitter. Block diagrams,
simplified electrical schematics, and logic diagrams may be included. Refer to Table 3.3.1 on page 3.3.5
for an itemized listing.
Component Values
Unless otherwise specified on the logic or schematic diagram, the following defaults apply:
5 Capacitor values are shown in microfarads (uF) (e.g. 5 uF)
Resistor values are shown in ohms (e.g. 10 ohms; K = 1,000 and M = 1,000,000)
10
Resistor power ratings are not shown when less than 0.5 W
Unidentified diodes are part number BAS21HT1 (Nautel Part # QDRS01)
24V Unidentified transient suppressors are part number 0603E SDA-TR1 (Nautel Part # QR70)
Graphic and Logic Symbols

The graphic symbols used on electrical schematics are in accordance with American National Standard
ANSI Y32.2-1975 - Graphic Symbols for Electrical and Electronic Diagrams.
The logic symbols used on electrical schematics and logic diagrams are in accordance with American
National Standard ANSI Y32.14-1975 - Graphic Symbols for Logic Diagrams.
Reference Designations
Referenced designations were assigned in accordance with American Society of Mechanical Engineers
ASME Y14.44-2008 - Reference Designations for Electrical and Electronic Parts and Equipment.
Each electrical symbol is identified with its basic reference designation. To obtain the full reference
designation for a specific part, prefix this basic identifier with the reference designation assigned to all
higher assemblies. For example, the complete designation for a resistor (R1) on a printed wiring board
(A1), that is part of a larger board (A2), would be A2A1R1.
VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01 PAGE 3.3.1

Unique Symbols
Nautel uses unique symbols on electrical schematics to describe logic (two-state) signals. These signals
differ from single-state signals or analog signals that may have multiple values.
Type of Inputs and Outputs

On electrical schematics, names used to describe logic (two-state) input and output signals are prefixed
with a # symbol.
Logic Level Convention

The # prefix identifies an input or output signal that has two distinct states: high and low.
The suffix on an input or output signal name identifies the active (true) state of the signal. The high
suffix (+) indicates the more positive of the two levels used to represent the logic states. The low suffix
(-) indicates the less positive of the two levels.
Two types of logic, positive and negative, may be represented on a particular schematic. In positive
logic, high represents the active (true) state, and low represents the inactive (false) state. In negative
logic, low represents the active (true) state, and high represents the inactive (false) state.
Identifying Schematic Diagrams

Each electrical schematic in this section is identified by a number that is both the figure number and the
page number. The numbers are assigned sequentially are prefixed by the letters SD. The electrical
schematics and logic diagrams included in this section are listed in Table 3.3.1 on page 3.3.5.
PAGE 3.3.2 VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01

Structure of Schematics
The electrical schematics are structured in a hierarchical format that is based on function and signal
flow. Wherever practical, the signal flow is from left to right. Normally, inputs originate on the left-hand
side and outputs extend to the right-hand side. Exceptions are shown by an arrow indicating the
direction of signal flow.
NOTE: The physical location of a part or assembly was not necessarily a factor during creation of the
schematic. The full reference designation assigned to a part or assembly, in conjunction with the family
tree (see Section 3.2, “Parts Information” on page 3.2.1) and the assembly detail drawings (see Section
3.4, “Mechanical Drawings” on page 3.4.1), will identify its location.
Figures SD-1 through SD-4 identify each major stage and its detailed interconnection. Each stage
contains cross-references that identify which blocks are the signal sources for inputs, or the destinations
for outputs.
When a sub-function is treated as a block in figures SD-1 through SD-4, its detailed circuit information
is included in its own schematic drawing(s), which is also included in this section.
Locating Schematic Diagram(s) for a Functional Block

The text inside a functional block provides the key to locating its schematic diagram(s).
1. When a functional block is assigned a reference designation (e.g., A2), refer to the family trees in
Section 3.2, “Parts Information” on page 3.2.1. Follow the family tree branches to the block that
contains the desired reference designation, and associated Nautel nomenclature (e.g., NAPI187
System Interface PWB).
2. Refer to Table 3.3.1 on page 3.3.5 and use the reference designation and Nautel nomenclature to
identify the appropriate schematic diagram(s).
Example: NAPI187 System Interface PWB is shown on schematics SD-7 and SD-8.
3. If necessary, refer to the referenced figure in the schematics at the end of this section and locate
the next, lower-level assembly. Then, repeat this procedure until the desired schematic diagram is
found.
VERSION 0.1 2020-12-01 PAGE 3.3.3

Locating a Part or Assembly on a Schematic

The full reference designation assigned to a part or assembly is the key to physically locating that part
or assembly.
NOTE: Full reference designations contain the assembly hierarchical coding. When the end item is
divided into units (cabinets), the first coding is a unit number (1, 2, 3, etc.). When the end item is
divided into assemblies, the first coding is an assembly number (A1, A2, A3, etc.). If a unit or an
assembly is divided into sub-assemblies, assembly coding that identifies assembly relationship (1A1,
A2A1, A2A1A1, etc.) is added.
1. Refer to the family trees in Section 3.2, “Parts Information” on page 3.2.1.
2. Follow the family tree branches to the block that contains the desired reference designation, while
noting the Nautel nomenclatures and names of all higher assemblies in the path. Example: A2
NAPI187 System Interface PWB.
NOTE: The drawings in the Mechanical Drawings section depict the assembly detail of the transmitter
and its modules and assemblies
3. Refer to Table 3.4.1 in Section 3.4, “Mechanical Drawings” on page 3.4.1. Use the Nautel
nomenclature and name of each family tree block in the path, starting at the highest assembly –
this is normally Figure MD-1 – to determine the figure number(s) for that assembly. Example:
NAPI187 System Interface PWB is shown on MD-4.
4. Refer to the referenced figure (e.g., MD-4) in Section 3.4, “Mechanical Drawings” on page 3.4.1 to
locate the desired part or assembly.

Mechanical drawings are illustrations that depict the location of electrical components and show
assembly outline detail. Dimensional information is included, where appropriate.
When a module or assembly is the subject of its own assembly detail drawing, and it is also shown in a
higher level assembly, the detail depicted in the higher level assembly may have minor differences from
the module or assembly actually installed. In this case, always refer to the assembly detail drawing of
the module or assembly for detailed information.
Locating a Part or Assembly on a Mechanical Drawing

1. When a part or assembly is assigned a reference designation (e.g., A1 or A1R1), refer to the family
trees in Section 3.2, “Parts Information” on page 3.2.1. Follow the family tree branches to the block
that contains the desired reference designation and Nautel nomenclature (e.g., NAPA40 Power
Amplifier PWB). Note the reference designations and Nautel nomenclatures of all higher
assemblies in the path.
Example: A7 NAPA40 Power Amplifier PWB.
2. Refer to Table 3.4.1 on page 3.4.2. Use the reference designation and Nautel nomenclature to
identify the appropriate mechanical drawing.
Example: NAPA40 Power Amplifier PWB is shown on schematics MD-9.
3. If necessary, refer to the referenced figure (e.g., MD-9) in the mechanical drawings at the end of
this section and locate the next, lower-level assembly. Then, repeat this procedure until the desired
part or assembly is found.

VX150 TO VX2 TROUBLESHOOTING MANUAL LIST OF TERMS
SECTION 3.5: LIST OF TERMS

This section defines some of the terms that are used in Nautel documentation.
AES/EBU. Audio Engineering Society/European Broadcasting Union (AES/EBU) is the name of a digital
audio transfer standard. The AES/EBU digital interface is usually implemented using 3-pin XLR
connectors (the same type connector used in professional micros). One cable carries both left-channel
and right-channel audio data to the receiving device.
AUI. The Advanced User Interface is the local touch screen on the front door and the advanced remote
control/monitoring feature that allows for extensive remote control and monitoring of the transmitter.
Cutback. A reduction in RF output power, caused by the occurrence of multiple shutbacks within a
pre-defined period.
DHCP. Dynamic Host Carrier Protocol.
DSP. Digital Signal Processing.
EEPROM. Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory.
Foldback. A reduction in RF output power, caused by adverse load conditions (high VSWR). No
shutbacks or cutbacks have occurred.
LED. Light Emitting Diode (also referred to as lamp).
LVPS. Low Voltage Power Supply. A module or modules used in the ac-dc power stage that generates
the low level dc supply voltage for the transmitter.
Preset. A setting that controls power level, frequency and audio parameters. The VX150 to VX2 allows
you to pre-program multiple presets.
PWB. Printed Wiring Board.
Shutback. A complete, but temporary loss of RF output power, caused by any one of a variety of
faults, including high VSWR, high reject load power, RF drive failure, or an open external interlock.
Shutdown. A complete and permanent loss of RF output power. Typically follows repeated cutback,
foldback or shutback events.
Surge protection panel. An electrical panel that protects equipment from electrical surges in the ac
power supply, antenna or site ground caused by lightning strikes.
UI. The User Interface is the controller module’s front panel LCD screen that allows for extensive local
control and monitoring of the transmitter.
VSWR. Voltage standing wave ratio. This is an expression of the ratio of reverse voltage to forward
voltage on the feedline and antenna system. An ideal VSWR of 1:1 provides maximum transmitter-
antenna efficiency.
