features of all FACET base units include:
• Distributed ±15 V dc and variable ±0-10 V dc power to the various circuit training modules. Coarse and fine controls are
provided to adjust the variable ±0-10 V dc supplies.
• Self-protection against short-circuit, reverse voltage, overvoltage, and overcurrent conditions.
• Long-life ZIF connector, with a rotary knob that locks the training module into the base unit. The ZIF connector itself is
protected from damage by built-in stops.
• The fingers on the connectors are gold-plated for added durability.
• Includes an accessory kit containing terminal posts, connectors, adapters, and patch cords required to perform
experiments on the FACET training module.
Base units come in two variants:
• Stand-alone
The Manual System Base Unit contains a total of thirty-two circuit modification (CM) and fault switches.
Students manually select CM switches as the course progresses, while the protected fault switches are reserved
for instructor use by means of an integrated locking cover assembly.
• Computerized (USB link)
The computerized base unit is linked to the computer automatically by the courseware when needed, and can
also be activated via a USB port by the teacher through password-protected software. The computerized base
unit contains thirty-two relays controlled by commands from the student’s computer circuit modifications (CM)
and faults are switched in and out automatically by the software.
A message on the student’s computer screen indicates that a CM or fault is activated. In the troubleshooting

Communications Transmission Lines

581192 (91028-20)
The Transmission Lines circuit board
provides students with the theory and
measurement skills required to
implement and test communications
transmission lines. Students first learn
the principles and operational
characteristics of transmission lines.
They then learn how to conduct
transmission line measurements
under transient (step testing), and
sinusoidal steady-state conditions.
Finally, students acquire a valuable
foundation in the theory and practice
of time-domain reflectometry (TDR), as well as impedance matching and transformation.
The circuit board uses two RG-174 coaxial cables, each a length of 24 meters (78.7 feet). They can be used
separately or connected end-to-end. Each line has five probing points that permit observation and
measurements of signals along the line, using an oscilloscope.
Two generators are provided to study the transmission line behavior: a step generator that produces a 50-kHz
square-wave voltage for transient behavior testing, and a signal generator that produces a sinusoidal voltage of
variable frequency (5 kHz - 5 MHz) for steady-state behavior testing. Each generator has several BNC outputs
providing different output impedances.
A load section, consisting of a configurable network of resistors, inductors, and capacitors, permits connection
of different load impedances to the receiving end of each line.
The circuit board may be used in the FACET base unit, or as a stand-alone trainer.
System (LMS) format. Moreover, faults can be inserted into the circuits to allow students to develop troubleshooting
capabilities.
