Supply Check
Remove the transformer secondary fuses (located on SUPPLY board), set
the Variac to the nominal mains voltage, check with the Multimeter the AC
supply voltages:
F1-F2=102±2Vac
F3-F4=60±1.5Vac.
Re-set the Variac at zero voltage, turn off the amplifier and put the fuses back
on its holders.
Connect the oscilloscope probe CH1 to the channel output, before RL1, set
it to 20V/div. 1mS/div.
Set up the Variac slowly monitoring the Outputs with the oscilloscope CH1
connected, it should display the sinusoidal input signal amplified with no
distortions, if a distortion occur check the AMPLIFIER board as suggested in
the ADVICES section.
If the protection trips, turn off the amplifier, wait some minutes and disconnect
the supplies from the amplifier module (CN2, CN3 on AMPLIFIER board),
continue to check the supplies.
Finally verify the DC supplies on SUPPLY board:
CN2 pin 5 (+Vcc2) =+71±2Vdc
CN3 pin 1 (+Vcc1) =+42±1.5Vdc
CN3 pin 5-6 (-Vcc1) =-42±1.5Vdc
CN3 pin 4 (-Vcc2) =-71±2Vdc
CN2 pin 3 =+15±1Vdc
CN2 pin 2 =-15±1Vdc
If one or more voltages don’t correspond, check the rectifiers, capacitors and
transformers disconnecting them from circuitry, refer to schematics.
Channels CheckChannels Check

Verify, with the Multimeter, the insulation between the heatsink and the
transistors collectors.
Verify, with the Multimeter, the PTC resistor value (R59), it must be between
50 and 200.

SETUP:
Connect the CH1 scope GND clip to CN2 pin 6 (SGND terminal).
Connect the CH1 probe tip to CN3 pin 2 or 3 (PWR out).
Connect the CH2 probe tip to D20 anode and set its sensitivity at 5V/div.
Set the LEVEL potentiometer full clockwise.
The load resistor is disconnected.
INITIAL TEST:INITIAL TEST:

INITIAL TEST:
Increase slowly the Variac. The channel output signals must be symmetrical
respect the GND without visible distortion and oscillation as shown in
Fig.1

shown the amplifier 2nd stage input). If there is a distortion
read the section ADVICES.
HIGH RAIL CHECK:HIGH RAIL CHECK:
HIGH RAIL CHECK:HIGH RAIL CHECK:
HIGH RAIL CHECK:
Connect the CH2 probe tip to D25 cathode and set its sensitivity at 20V/div.
When the output signal (Positive half-wave) is less than 34Vp the voltage on
D25 cathode must remain constant at 40V, when the output signal exceeds
40Vp the voltage must follow the output signal with 6V offset (see
Fig.2 Trace
B
), to check the negative high rail connect the probe to D26 anode (see
Fig.2
Trace C
).
Connect the 4 500W load on the output and repeat the INITIAL and HIGH
RAIL checks.

Set the generator level at -10dB (0,245V

), adjust the trimmer VR2 on
INPUTS board to obtain an output level of 19Vp (13.4V

Re-set the generator level at 0dB (0,775V

SIGN/COMP SENSOR CHECK:SIGN/COMP SENSOR CHECK:
SIGN/COMP SENSOR CHECK:SIGN/COMP SENSOR CHECK:
SIGN/COMP SENSOR CHECK:
Set the LEVEL pot to minimum, set the scope timebase at 1V/div. 1mS/div.,
then increase the level and check the SIGNAL/COMP led activity: it must turn
on (green light) when the amplifier output is higher than 1Vp.
Set the scope at 20V/div. and increase the level, check the led: it must change
from green to red colour when the amplifier output signal is 50±2Vp,
increasing the input level the output signal must keep the same level, this is
due to the limiter-compression circuitry (IC2, DL1, IC1).

Set the Variac to zero voltage output, disconnect resistive load from the
amplifier output, connect temporarily (by means of a suitable conductor wire)
CN2 pin 3 (+15Vdc) to R72 side RL1, the protection circuitry (TR14,15,16)
detect the DC voltage and open the output relay (RL1) within 3 seconds
approx.
Remove the connection, wait until the relay switch on and after some seconds
repeat the check with -15Vdc (available on CN2 pin 2), the protection circuitry
must open the relay again.
