Eddystone XE10
In the Eddystone XE10 use of wideband design, techniques mean that the frequency setting is easily achieved using easily accessible switches with no further tuning required. The XE10 uses a unique ultra linear modulator to give superb sound reproduction with freedom from overshoots and artefacts. The modulator also features a precision TCXO for exceptional frequency stability.
The XE10 will operate into any load without damage thanks to its VSWR cut back circuit that protects the power amplifier stage from adverse operating conditions. The XE10 front panel LCD metering allows selection of output forward and reverse power, frequency, heat sink temperature and any optional baseband input module settings. Selected screen also shows any relating fault or condition (‘Low’, ‘High’, ‘Muted’, ‘Interlock’, ‘Phase Lock Fail’, Fan Fail’ etc).
Also provided are: green/red pass/fail LED indicators of system normal and CPU status, plus a green/red/amber indicator of mute/interlock status. A front panel monitor point for RF output is provided. The rear panel includes a remote control/monitoring socket that allows carrier muting and status signalling to an external system. Additionally, TCP/IP, (option /T) or RS232, (option /A) interfaces are available. Conservatively rated components are used to ensure extremely high reliability and to give good efficiency. Variants of the XE10 are available with the choice of Universal AC, 12VDC, 24VDC, or 48VDC supply input.
The XE10 comes as standard with a composite and SCA/RDS with a further comprehensive range available.
