SG-235 ManualQuick Start GuideRemote Manual TuningTo quickly install your antenna coupler you will need the following:1. An HF radio installation with 3 to 500 watts output.2. An HF antenna with a single wire feed (not coax fed).Minimum length of 50 feet (from 3.0 MHz) or 300 feet (from 1.8 MHz).3. A good ground (counterpoise) for the antenna and coupler4. +12 VDC and ground for the coupler.5. SmartLock PRO coupler controllerConnect the coupler to the system as shown in the following diagram:To transmitter/Amplifier(3 to 500W)RG 58(To Linear Amp)Black: DC GroundRed: +12 to 15 VDCGray: PTT Out to Linear(active low) *Brown: PTT Infrom transceiverYellow: RS232Purple: ReceiveOrange: TransmitBlk/Wht: Ground(TO RS232)Blue: ResetSingle wireAntennaGround (Counterpoise)White: Hold (Locks coupler settings)Green: Tuned IndicatorBlack/Yellow stripe: DC GroundRed: +12 to 15 VDC(TO SmartLock PRO)12 conductor plus RG-58 coaxOptional connection not requred for normal use.Operation:1. Turn on radio. Apply +12 VDC power to the coupler.2. As power is applied, coupler should make one ÓclickÓ sound. Coupler comes up in thebypass (untuned) state.3. To tune, speak normally, whistle, or use CW (CW is recommended).4. Tuning is done at a maximum of 100 watts. Once radio is tuned, the Gray wire transitions from5V to GND and acts as a switch to turn on a 500W linear amplifier.Note: Coupler must be used in manual PTT mode.5. When tuned, clicking stops and Green wire goes low.4© 1998 SGC IncSGC Inc. SGC Building, 13737 S.E. 26th St. Bellevue, WA 98005 USAP.O.
