SAFETY NOTICES
WARNING
To avoid risks of electrical shocks or fire, only qualified personnel should execute the procedures
specified in this manual.
WARNING
When the protective covers of any device or component connected to a 110 / 240 VAC source by a
power cord are removed, voltages and currents dangerous to life may be exposed.
WARNING
Contact with 110 / 240 Volts of alternating current and associated direct current and voltages can be
fatal.
DANGEROUS
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK DO NOT OPEN COVERS
CAUTION
To reduce the risks of electrical shock, do not remove the cover (or the back). Refer, for servicing,
to qualified service personnel. This installation should be done by a qualified person and should
comply with to all local applicable laws.

1. PM1000 FM TRANSMITTER
1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PM1000 is a complete FM broadcasting transmitter with continuously adjustable output power,
0 to 1050W. Made with MOSFET technology, can be used as stand-alone complete transmitter or
as driver for high power amplifiers.
On the PM1000 the use of MOSFET allows:
- Higher efficiency ( ≈85%);
- High gain (high transconductance and low internal reactive capacitance);
- High thermal stability (negative coefficient for drain current).
The output frequency range is between 87.5 and 108 MHz. Frequency setting is made using internal
dip switches or external selectors (/C option). The minimum frequency step is 10 kHz.
The transmitter has high frequency stability, due to the use of the Digital Phase Locked Loop
system and a very low drift reference quartz.

An internal deviation limiter controls the maximum frequency deviation, thus avoiding adjacent
channel interference in case of accidental over modulation. In order to limit over modulation, it is
necessary to insert the jumper jp6 in the modulation board to enable the limiter.
Valuable characteristics of PM1000 include intelligent protections. Circuits to protec from load
mismatching (VSWR) and overtemperature (TEMP) allow to otain a very high reliability in all
conditions. Every alarm condition is monitored by means of front panel leds.
The front panel led bar enable the full, easy and fast verification of the main parameters and
condition of operation. The output power, the reflected power, the voltage supply of the power
amplifier, the frequency deviation, L&R audio level, and MPX are continuously monitored.
It is possible, using the front panel adjustments, to control the following settings: output power
(PWR adj.), frequency deviation (DEV adj.), transmitting frequency (option /C), manual/remote
control selection (option /R) and the mono/stereo selection (option /S).
An output 10th order elliptic LP filter ensures a pure RF spectrum, compatible with the most
stringent international requirements. As well, a high efficiency switching mode power supply
reduces the power consumption, and ensures reliable operation.
