The Icom IC-PW1 Main Unit connects to the PX-1981 AC Power Supply CONNECT Assembly (A1A3).
The following is a description of the interface connections:
| MAIN UNIT | PX-1981 ‘CONNECT' | FUNCTION LABEL | DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTION | NOTES |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| J4-1 | J1-1 | ID | PA Current Sample from PX-1981 for PW1 Meter-1 (ID) | |
| J4-2 | J1-2 | VD | PA Voltage Sample from PX-1981 for PW1 Meter-2 (VD) | |
| J4-3 | J1-3 | REGF | HI from Main Unit to Turn PX-1981 Fan ON at T > 50oC | 1 |
| J4-4 | J1-4 | REGHC | HI from Main Unit (Drives HVSA LO) to Turn On HV (45V) | 2 |
| J4-5 | J1-5 | MAXI | HI from PX-1981 when PA HV Current Exceeds 50A | |
| J4-6 | J1-6 | REGT | HI from PX-1981 when its HV Regulator Temperature is Exceeded | |
| J4-7 | J1-7 | GND | GND Ground Return between MAIN UNIT and PX-1981 | |
| J4-8 | J1-8 | -13V | -13V from MAIN UNIT for PX-1981 CONV-CTRL Assembly | 3 |
| J4-9 | J1-9 | GND | GND Ground Return between MAIN UNIT and PX-1981 | |
| J4-10 | J1-10 | H12 | +12V from PX-1981 SUB-REG to power the PW1 (Low Voltage) | 4 |
| J4-11 | J1-11 | H12 | +12V from PX-1981 SUB-REG to power the PW1 (Low Voltage) | 4 |
| J4-12 | J1-12 | SEL | HI from MAIN UNIT to PX-1981 CONV-CTRL when 50 MHz is Selected |
| Notes | |
| 1 | The Power Supply Fan will remain on after the PW1 is tuned OFF (as required) until the temperature drops below 50oC. |
| 2 | PA HV (+45V) is provided from the PX-1981 FIL-DC (A1A6) Assy. via EP19, 20, 21, 22 for PA1 through PA4. |
| 3 | PX-1981 CONNECT J4-8, J5-6, and CONV-CTL J1-6 should be labeled –13V (not –5V). |
| 4 | The PX-1981 REG-RELAY Assembly passes AC Power directly through to the SUB-REG (even when the PW1 and its associated HF Transceiver(s) are turned OFF). Therefore it should be noted that as long as the PW1 is connected to an AC Power outlet, the +12V, +18V, and –18V Power Supplies remain active (HOT). |
