Shielded Ground Wire AM1000 QUICK INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS Get Started! Pick three locations 1) a place for the transmitter 2) place for your studio or inside connection (can just be under a desk) and 3) a ground. Once you have planned these loca- tions so they will all work together you are ready! First, put your transmitter mount in, you can use stan- dard 1 1/4 antenna mast mount from Radio Shack or an TV store. Be safe! Stay away from electrical wires and do not climb anyt

Now mount the transmitter to the mast using the bracket (see bracket instructions). If you are not using a bracket, install transmitter to wall or acceptable configuration. Install 102” Antenna (Radio Shack # 21-903) to the transmitter, it screws into the top. Connect the audio/power wire as shown on first page diagram, the ground wire connects to the post at bottom of transmitter. Go ahead and connect power/audio and turn on. Be sure the power switch in the transmitter is ON. If your unit

Please note that changes or modifications not expressly approved by RangeMaster for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Installing the AM1000 transmitter This unit is meant to be installed by someone who has some radio background. If you don’t feel qualified to install this unit yourself contact a local radio/TV shop. They may be able to help. Also if you have a friend who is a Ham radio operator they may be able to help you. The goal of a successful inst

your wire is to large to fit into the binding post use a short section of wire and a wire nut to complete the connection. Weatherproof the wire nut connection. It is important to keep the ground wire away from metal on the way to ground rod to get good range and provide the best lightning protection. Keep the ground wire away from other metal if at all possible. (See hints page) A couple inches away is fine. Cable the unit to the inside to provide power and audio for the transmitter. See in

Step 4 If things look good so far take the tuning tool and rotate “TUNE” to obtain a peak reading of the meter. When the meter peaks you are tuned. Be sure to stay away from the antenna while tuning. If you are to close to the antenna your body will affect where it tunes. Keep in mind that you need to see a peak. The meter should rise and fall as you adjust. If you just turn it clockwise or counter clockwise all the way and the meter goes up until the capacitor can’t be turned anymore the

Now go and check your range. Use your car and your odometer to check the range. Do the final tune on “TUNE” (Check to be sure the meter voltage is still peaked). Adjust “AUDIO LEVEL” control for best sound on your radio. Keeping the antenna as vertical as possible will help your range. It is also critical to keep the antenna away from metal. Don’t for example, mount the antenna so it runs up against, or parallel to a metal drain pipe. Before you leave make sure that the customer knows tha

AM1000T Power Set / Tuning Module J13 Power Adjust LED Coil Tune Cap Tune When transmitter is turned on, the computer will start in Power Set mode if there is a shunt in J13 (Power is set last). When you are tuning you will get better readings with the power all the way down (Power Adjust counter clockwise). Also it will help if the Cap Tune (10 turn device) is about in the middle of it’s range (5 turns in from either way). Please note the tuning function is an alternative

To go to the Cap Tune program just leave the shunt in J13 for 15 seconds, the LED will turn off. Take the shunt off j13 (and then replace shunt onto J13) and you are in the Cap Tune program. To find the peak voltage using this program you need to get used to working with the program. As the voltage is steady or going up the LED will remain green, it will however tell you when the voltage is going down, and how fast. Turning the Cap Tune more quickly will give more red blinks as the voltage

If you are using an Innovonics 222 be sure your output polarity is correct, here is how: 1. Turn the positive peaks all the way down 2. Turn the output level up until you get distortion, then back off a little (hair) for good sound. 3. Then turn the positive peaks all the way up, if you get distortion then the (output) terminals + and - are probably reversed. The polarity of the input terminals doesn’t matter. If you are having trouble matching your input impedance to the Innovonics see t
