. . . . Performing Station Alignment
Some of the station tuning, alignment, and adjustment tasks have been performed in the factory prior to shipment. These procedures do not need to be performed at the time of installation and are generally required only after maintenance of certain modules. These procedures are listed below with their location in this manual.
• “Aligning Power Output Procedure” on page 6-4
• “Aligning Power Output Procedure for a Quantro 350W VHF Station” on page 6-7
• “Aligning Tx Deviation Gain Adjust Procedure, 350W VHF Stations” on page 6-11
• “Aligning Reference Modulation Compensation Procedure” on page 6-14
Certain site-specific alignment tasks must be performed during optimization at the time they are installed and prior to being placed into service. The tasks required are shown below:
• “RX and TX Wireline Alignment” on page 3-55
• “Aligning Radio Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)” on page 3-68
• “Aligning Squelch Adjust Procedure” on page 3-71
• “Equalizing Batteries” on page 3-73
• “Calibrating Reference Oscillator Procedure” on page 3-75
• “Setting ASTRO Tx Align and Test Procedure” on page 3-82
• “Generating ASTRO Test Patterns” on page 3-85
• “TDATA Calibration (6809 Trunking Station Only)” on page 3-88

MPORTANTBefore performing any of the station alignment procedures, you must dekey the station transmitter. In addition, when you enter the Alignment Screen, the following prompt is displayed, "The station is Automatically put into Access Disable mode. A station reset is required to return the station to Access Enable. Do you want to continue?" Click Yes to continue. When the alignment procedures are completed, deactivate Access Disable and restore the station to normal operation by performing a station reset.
