CONNECTING THE DISPLAY AND SENSOR

Your SWR/power meter has two parts - the display and the sensor.  You
connect these two parts using the supplied three-wire cable.  If you need
a longer cable, use three-conductor intercom wire (Cat. No. 278-871) to
extend the existing wire, then cut it to the desired length.

Note:  Your SWR/power meter's display and sensor are calibrated together
       before packaging.  Do not interchange the display or sensor from
       one system with the display or sensor from another system.

Follow these steps to connect the display and sensor.

1.  Remove the sensor's terminal plug.

2.  Insert the supplied three-wire cable into the sensor's REF, GND, and
    FWD terminals as noted below.  Then tighten the terminal screws to
    secure the wires.  Insert three-wire cable (colors) as follows: White
    to REF, Clear to GND, and Red to FWD.

3.  Replace the terminal plug.

4.  Plug the other end of the cable into the display's SENSOR INPUT jack.

CONNECTING THE DC ADAPTER

You can power your SWR/power meter from a standard AC outlet with the 12V
DC adapter.

Connect the adapter's barrel plug to the meter's 12V DC jack on the back
of the display.  Then plug the adapter's other end into a standard AC
outlet.

CAUTION:  You must use a DC adapter that supplies 12 volts DC and at least
          200 milliamps, and has a plug that is set to tip positive and
          fits your meter's jack.  Using an adapter that does not meet
          these requirements could damage your SWR/power meter or the
          adapter.

CONNECTING THE METER AND A TRANSCEIVER

Note:  You need a coax cable with PL-259 connectors long enough to reach
       from the sensor to the display.

You can connect the sensor to one of two places.  To measure the
transceiver's power output and the combined SWR of the antenna cable and
antenna, connect it at the transceiver.  To measure the total power
delivered to the antenna and the antenna's SWR without the cable, connect
it at the antenna.

Connecting the sensor to a transceiver as shown in Faxback Doc. # 47601,
Fig. A, lets you measure the power output from the transceiver or the SWR
of the antenna and the cable.

Connect as shown in Faxback Doc. # 47601, Fig. B, to measure the power
delivered to the antenna and the SWR of the antenna.
