The 8200ST is now producing a 400Hz sine wave at each output. The
peak level of this tone corresponds to 100% modulation.
B)
Adjust the 8200ST’s
L
O
UT
and
R
O
UT
controls so that the STL transmitter is be-
ing driven to 100% modulation.
The
L
O
UT
and
R
O
UT
controls are now correctly calibrated to the transmit-
ter. If no significant overshoot occurs in the transmitter, the
MODULATION
meter will now give an accurate indication of peak modulation of the
STL.
C)
Turn off the tone by pressing the
T
ONE
button.
If the STL transmitter suffers from bounce or overshoot, you may have to
reduce the
L
O
UT
and
R
O
UT
control settings to avoid peak over-
modulation caused by overshoots on certain audio signals.

Set controls for normal operation with program material.
The following assumes that a VU meter is used to determine 8200ST line drive
levels with program material.
A)
Set the controls as follows:
HF LIMITER... Set to match the pre-emphasis of the transmission system
L&R Out ............................................................................... do not change
GATE .................................................................................................... 12:00
RELEASE ............................................................................................... 12:00
VOICE ......................................................................................................OFF
AGC ..........................................................................................................ON
COUPLE ....................................................................................................ON
B)
Feed the 8200ST either with tone at your system reference level (0VU), or with
typical program material at normal levels.
C)
Adjust the
G
AIN
R
EDUCTION
control for the desired amount of gain reduction.
If the STL uses pre-emphasis, its input pre-emphasis network will proba-
bly introduce overshoots that will increase peak modulation without any
increase in average modulation. We therefore strongly recommend that
the STL transmitter’s pre-emphasis be defeated (freeing the STL from
such potential overshoot), and that the 464A be used to provide the nec-
essary pre-emphasis.
We recommend 8-15 dB gain reduction for most formats.
If the STL transmitter’s pre-emphasis cannot be defeated, configure the
8200ST for flat output. In this case, average modulation levels of the STL
may have to be reduced to accommodate the overshoots.
Quick Setup
Quick Setup guides you through 8382 setup. It is appropriate for users without spe-
cial or esoteric requirements. Following this section, you can find more detailed in-
formation regarding setup beyond the Quick Setup screens. In most cases, you will
not need this extra information.
