The 490S-1 HF Antenna Coupler
provides the proper impedance match between an aircraft shunt or notch
antenna and the 50-ohm impedance of the transmission line. The 490S-1
operates for both transmit and receive with a voltage standing wave ratio of
not more than 1.3:1 throughout the specified frequency range. The 490S-1 dual
system is capable of operating using a common antenna with two transceivers.
Three decisions are made by the 490S-1 logic that determine if both couplers
are in a receive mode, if one coupler is in a transmit mode, and which
coupler received a key (ground) first.
The 490S-1
is a lightweight pressurized unit with a removable cover containing a seal
gasket. The 490S-1 consist of an electrical equipment case, radio frequency
tuner module, loading-phasing discriminator module, control logic card,
interface logic card, servo-amplifier card, and power supply/isolation
amplifier card. The 490S-1 must be mounted on a 790S mount for proper
interface with the aircraft. The 490S-1 is held in the mount by two
quick-disconnect captive front clamp. The 490S-1 is tunable over a frequency
range from 25 to 30 MHz, and contains the necessary switching and
interlocking circuits for use in either a single or dual system ARINC
configuration. When a dual system is used, interlock circuits prevent one
system from being keyed or turned while the other system is either keyed or
tuned. A failure in one system will not preclude the operations of the second
system. The 490S-1 uses the 115-V 400-Hz aircraft power and has no special
cooling requirements and there are no controls on the 490S-1.
