Select Adjust or Warm-up delay using the
arrow keys, then press ENTER.
(UTIL, REF) ADJUST
If Adjust is selected, the following sub-menu is displayed:
Fine adjustment of the Internal 10 MHz reference oscillator is possible through
this menu. Use the
arrow keys to edit the value. Note that in order to
facilitate adjustment, the value is updated as the digits are incremented – the user
does not need to press the ENTER key. The range of values is from –999 to
+999.
Note: The numbers displayed here do not correspond to an exact frequency
increment. A user should perform this fine adjustment while using an external
frequency counter, connected to either:
a) the internal 10 MHz reference, if the user has internal access to the
equipment, or
b) the Tx Output, set for CW, 0 dBm output level, and an exact center
frequency (1000 MHz, for example).
(UTIL, REF) WARM-UP DELAY
If Warm-up delay is selected, the following sub-menu is displayed:
Select Disable or Enable using the
arrow keys, then press ENTER.
If the user selects Disable, the CDM-570/570L will power-up and go into normal
operational service without any delay. Because the CDM-570L uses a high-
stability oven-controlled 10 MHz reference oscillator (OCXO) there is a finite
time required for the oven to reach operating temperature. Consequently, there
will be a frequency error (as great as 2 x 10
-6
) when the modem first powers up,
and it may take up to 2 minutes before the frequency has settled to its correct
