DXE-RTR-1 Receive Antenna Interface for Transceivers - Front PanelFigure 1 PWR ON-OFFToggle Switch - DXE-RTR-1 power on and off. +12 Vdc power is supplied via the rear panelcenter positive connector. RX ANT - ACTIVE indicatorOne Red LED (Light Emitting Diode) illuminates to indicate the DXE-RTR-1 is in the receivemode. This LED extinguishes when MAIN ON is selected or when keyed with RX ANTselected. PWR indicatorOne Green LED (Light Emitting Diode) illuminates to indicate the DXE-RTR-1 is poweredand turned on. MAIN ON - RX ANT - MAIN ON toggle switchThree position (On-On-plus Momentary) provides manual control of the DXE-RTR-1 antennaselections.MAIN ON (up) - Manually switches RADIO to the MAIN ANT for receiving with thetransmitting antenna. RADIO remains connected to MAIN ANT during transmit.RX ANT (center) - Switches the RADIO to the RX ANT for receive mode and allowsautomatic switching of the RADIO to the MAIN ANT during transmit.MAIN ON (momentary on when pressed down) - Manually switches RADIO to MAIN ANTmomentarily for a fast check of reception on the transmitting MAIN ANT.7From The N3UJJ.COM Document Library
