[time-nuts] Austron 2200A Manual

Robert,

My pleasure Sir!

The problem here is that the antenna may not work with +5v, and may actually
need +12V. However, I have successfully done this with an Odetics receiver
in the past, but the GPS engine was not a Trimble, and I don't actually know
who made the antennae, but I do remember that they had both 12V and 5V
versions. 

Worth a try though. 

For the record guys, I have worked directly for Systron-Donner, Austron,
Odetics/Zyfer and have represented TrueTime, Datum, Meinberg, and KSI, so
have some useful experience (plus a load of old manuals!!)

Rob

Wow, thanks for the quick response!!!  Any help will be appreciated.  Maybe
I can disconnect the 12 V & put 5 V on the antenna (internally), will try
and trace the traces.

Hi Robert,

I do have some 9390 manuals as well but doubt if I have that one (looks like
I better check out what I have and post the list). However I do know that
Datum used Trimble engines in their GPS products which did not down convert
and some of the earlier models did have +12V feeds for the LNA inside the
antenna rather than the later and more common +5V types.

Will check and let you know.

Hi Bob,

While you look through your box of manuals, could you please look for a
manual for the Datum 9390-5533 which I acquired via EBay.

Any info would be helpful, I note that it has 12 VDC on the antenna
connector so I am curious if its for a preamplified antenna or an
antenna/dowmconverter.

I am more then happy to pay for it.

Luciano,

I used to work for Austron before they were acquired by Datum, and have a
box of old manuals in my garage. Not sure if I have this particular one, but
will check and let you know.

Kind Regards

Rob Kimberley

I have bought an Austron 2200A GPS receiver with internal rubidium.
Unfortunately I haven't the antenna that really is a special converter.
I am looking for the service manual copy . Symmetricom say it haven't.
I remember my Austron is only 10 years old. 
Someone in the word can help me?

Thanks to all in advance
