FEATURES
• 5" (108 x 65mm) high resolution color display, 800x480 pixels and 24-bits colours.
• The final stage uses field effect (MOSFET) transistors type MRFE6VP6300H, which, according to their manufacturer Freescale Semiconductor, are designed to withstand high mismatch (SWR) at the output and are intended for operation in aerospace, industrial, mobile, and radio broadcast applications.
• Compatible with all transceiver models available on the market - does not need any special signals: "ground on transmit" (PTT) and 30 W of RF drive power is sufficient.
• Broadband input circuit provides a perfect transceiver load with SWR below 1.2:1 (typically 1.1:1), without retuning throughout the whole frequency range from 1.8 to 54MHz.
• The overall operation of ACOM 600S is extremely simple. The screen menus are intuitive and easy to follow and no special skill is required from the operator when changing frequency bands.
• Possibility of automatic control when connected to a transceiver with a CAT interface. ACOM 600S amplifier monitors transceiver constantly, duly follows the operating frequency, and changes the bands accordingly.
• Even if ACOM 600S is not connected to a transceiver with a CAT interface, the amplifier monitors the frequency of the input signal through the builtin frequency counter and automatically switches over to an appropriate band.
• Remotely controlled by a transceiver through a RS232 interface.
• Takes care of itself during operation due to the continuously working protection circuits in all modes.
• The operator can monitor digitally more than 10 parameters concerning the working conditions of the amplifier.
• Easy maintenance through a detailed data (55 parameters) about each of the last 28 hard-fault protection trips is stored in the amplifier's nonvolatile memory.
• Convenient for DXpeditions and field day operations - the amplifier is extremely compact and light. The extended mains voltage range (85-132 VAC and 170-265 VAC through changing only the main fuses - no internal switching is required). Limited inrush current and purely sinusoidal consumed mains current, automatic Power Factor Correction (PFC) - all are significant parameters in operation from unstable mains, generators etc. These and other features are achieved due to the built-in switchingmode power supply (SMPS).
• Perfect electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) with both the highly sensitive and with highly powerful devices on the radio station (receivers, computers, other amplifiers) exceeding the standard EMC requirements of the IIndustry Canada.
