Every single EM 1046 RX receiver module has an in-built micro- processor for the RF section, the operating elements and all indicators. It serves to control the following components or parameters: • phase locked loop (PLL) synthesizer • function of keys • 8 digit LED display • two LED bargraph displays • true diversity • monitoring • [...]

Diversity 1.2 Every EM 1046 RX receiver module operates on true diversity. An antenna splitter, integrated into the chassis, serves to route the antenna signals from both antennas to the three receiver modules. The receiving antenna not only receives direct electromagnetic waves, but also reflections from walls, windows, ceilings and other installa[...]

HiDyn plus ® 1.3 »HIDYN plus ® « NOISE REDUCTION SYSTEM The »HIDYN plus ® « noise reduction system serves to reduce the effects of RF interference fields. It increases the signal-to-noise ratio and gets close to about 110 dB for peak modulation. »HIDYN plus ® « is a wideband compander system. It is a combination of a compressor at the tra[...]
