1. SAFETY

Before applying power

IMPORTANT!

U.S.A. and Canada

Units shipped to the USA and Canada are designed
for operation on 120 volts AC only. These units are not
equipped with an AC voltage selector switch and the
discussion of such a switch that follows should be
disregarded.

All other countries

Units shipped to countries other than the USA, Cana-
da are equipped with an AC voltage selector switch on
the rear panel. Refer to the following paragraph for the
proper setting of this switch.

AC voltage selection

This unit operates on 120 volts, 220 volts or 240 volts
AC. The AC voltage selector switch on the rear panel is
set to the voltage that prevails in the area to which the unit
is shipped. Before connecting the power cord to your AC
outlet, make sure that the setting position of this switch
matches your line voltage. If not, it must be set to your
voltage in accordance with the following direction.

Note:
Our warranty does not cover damage caused by excessive
line voltage due to improper setting of the AC voltage se-
lector switch.

WARNING:
TO PREVENT FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO
NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.

4-2-9. CW zero-beat operation

1. When an optional filter is not used. tune the TUNING
knob so that the receive beat frequency is approximate-
ly 800 Hz.

2. When an optional CW filter is installed the simplest
method to use is to adjust the TUNING knob for maxi-
mum Smeter deflection.

In the FSK mode, the R-SOOO is automatically set for High
Tone and Narrow Shift (170 Hz) operation.

The accompanying diagram illustrates the relationship
between the carrier and the passband width. The demo-
dulated AFSK (Audio Frequency Shift Keying) signal is
sent from the REC jack on the front panel.

Notes:
1. An RTTY terminal is required to decode and display/
print the R Y signal.

2. Because the digital VFO resolution is 10 Hz, the dis-
played frequency may deviate 5 Hz from the space sig-
nal frequency, but this should present no problem in
acutual operation.

3. If you are using a low tone terminal unit, turn the tuning
knob to lower the beat frequency then turn the IF SHIFT
knob counterclockwise until the S-meter no longer fluc-
tuates.

4. To receive a wide shift signal, set the SELECTIVITY
switch or M1 or M2. To receive a wide shift, high tone
signal, turn the IF SHIFT knob clockwise until the 3-
meter no longer fluctuates.

5. To receive AFSK (F2) signals, put the R-SOOO in the FM
mode.

Scan Television)

Select the MODE key to match the receiving mode. Con-

nect the modulator, decoder, or other terminal unit to the

REC jack on the front panel. For more detailed informa-

tion, refer to the instruction manual supplied with the ter-

minal equipment.
