The DM-81 is a self-excited oscillator designed for external coupling to t

5、he equipment being tested. It features both inductive and capacitive coupling for measuring enclosed coils and toroidal coils (patent pending). This is not possible with conventional testing instruments. The DM-81 has the following two functions: Inductive coupling As shown (Figure 1A), place the co

6、il unit of the dip meter in close proximity to the circuit being measured. Adjust the dial. When the dip meter oscillation frequency coincides with the resonant frequency (tuned circuit), oscillating energy is absorbed by the circuit, thus decreasing the oscillation strength. This strength is indica

7、ted on the meter. The pointer swings back momentarily at the resonant point. Since the meter pointer dips at a tuned point, this instrument is called a dip meter. Capacitive coupling This is a special feature of the DM-81 which is not found in any other dip meter. The resonant frequency can be check

8、ed simply by touching the capacitance probe to the hot side of the resonant circuit under test, instead of coupling the DM-81s coil and measuring inductively. The frequency is read directly on the dial. See Figure 1B. Radio equipment is miniaturized and most coils are enclosed in metal shields. Also

9、, toroidal coils are used in many types of radio equipment, and these coils do not couple to conventional dip meters. The DM-81 has solved this problem.

Also, when used as the marker generator, amplitude modulation is helpful in precisely calibrating the dial scale even for a receiver having no BFO. 6. An FET and transistor are used in th

KENWOOD DM-81 5 CONTROLS KENWOOD DM-81 6 PRECAUTIONS Battery and Oscillation Coil Loading Taking the coil compartment o

17、ut, you will find a battery snap connector inside the unit. Fit the snap to the battery. First lay the battery take-out ribbon into the battery holder, then install the battery in place. Place the supplied oscillation coils into the coil compartment and reinstall into the dip meter main body. Verify

18、 that the battery is serviceable before operating your DM-81. First, turn the POWER switch on. Set the FUNCTION switch to BATT CHECK. The battery is usable as long as the meter pointer is within the B.C zone. A low battery results in weak or unstable oscillation, no oscillation, or frequency error.

19、Replace the battery when weak. After use, be sure to turn the POWER switch off. If your DM-81 will not be used for a long period of time, remove the battery. You can easily remove it by pulling the take-out ribbon toward you. Never remove the case screws. Obtaining a Dip Point The closer the dip met

20、er is brought to the resonant circuit being checked, the tighter the two are coupled and the deeper the dip point. However, the tuning point becomes so broad that you cannot find the correct resonant frequency. Therefore, it is advisable to move the dip meter a little away from the circuit. Note tha

21、t the A band has a large pull-in effect and therefore the dip point is broad. Measuring Transistor Resonant Circuits There is no load problem in measuring vacuum tube resonant circuits. In measuring some resonant (tuning) circuits in transistorized transmitters and receivers, the resonant point cann

22、ot always be found by the dipping load. In this event, temporarily disconnect the transistor or operate the given resonant circuit with power on and measure by absorption. Caution in Measuring Transmitters Your DM-81 is usable as an absorption frequency meter in measuring transmitter power amplifier

23、 tank circuits and similar stages producing high RF energy. In rneasurement, do not abruptly bring the dip meter close to the circuit as the transistors and other parts in the dip meter could be destroyed by excess RF energy. Bring it near the circuit slowly while observing the meter pointer. KENWOO

24、D DM-81 7 Caution in Motor Pointer Deflection Change The meter pointer may swing slightly as if indicating a dip, This results from a variation in oscillation signal strength while tuning the oscillator variable capacitor. Move the dip meter coil away from the circuit under measurement. The meter po

25、inter will return to full scale for a real dip. APPLICATIONS Use as a Dip Meter 1. Select an oscillation coil covering the desired frequency range. 2. Install the coil into the socket on top of the dip meter. 3. Set the FUNCTION switch to OSC. 4. Turn the power on. 5. Turn the SENSITIVITY control un

26、til the meter pointer reads at division 0.7. If not to division 0.7, turn the control fully counter-clockwise. 6. Bring the dip meter coil about 1 cm from the tuned circuit to be measured and slowly turn the dial. The oscillator signal energy will be absorbed by the tuned circuit at the resonant poi

27、nt and the meter will dip abruptly. See Figure 3. Note: At first, couple the dip meter coil tightly to the given tuned circuit so that you can easily find the dip point. Then, bring the oscillation coil away until the dip is as narrow as possible, and readjust the dial precisely for an accurate dip

28、point. Now read the correct frequency on the dial. KENWOOD DM-81 8 Other Frequency Measurements Resonant circuit measurement A basic measurement with your DM-81 is a frequency check of resonant (tuned) circuits comprised of coils and capacitors. In practice, the dip meter is brought near the coil to

29、 be measured as shown in Figure 1A. This illustrates a standard method of resonant frequency measurement. Use of the capacitive probe If a coil to be measured is located in a narrow place and cannot be coupled to the dip meter coil, or if a coil is enclosed in a shield, the probe can be used for acc

30、urate measurement. See Figure 4. KENWOOD DM-81 9 The dip point can be obtained by using the ground clip and probe for frequencies of about 50MHz or lower, and the probe only for about 5OMHz and higher. Toroidal coils can be measured in the same manner. Note that the probe should be connected to the

31、hot side (not the ground side) of the circuit. See connections (a) through (e) in the illustration. The dip point is sometimes critical depending on the circuit or frequency to be measured. An accurate dip point can be obtained by turning the dial slowly. KENWOOD DM-81 10 Antenna resonant frequency

32、measurement Any antenna can be regarded as a kind of resonant circuit. Its resonant frequency, therefore, can be measured as illustrated in Figure 5. For measurement, connect a one-turn coil to the feed point at the center of the antenna. Couple it with the dip meter coil. Now, you can obtain the an

33、tenna resonant frequency in a similar manner to APPLICATIONS Section A. For a vertical antenna or similar antennas for which the other feeder lead is grounded, place the one-turn coil between the antenna and ground. Couple the one-turn coil to the dip meter until a dip point is obtained. Then, slowl

34、y separate the coil to measure the resonant frequency accurately. KENWOOD DM-81 11 Use as a Signal Generator Your DM-81 can be used as a signal generator for aligning receivers and similar equipment. Couple the dip meter to the antenna circuit of the receiver as illustrated in Figure 6. The dip mete

35、r output carrier will enter the receiver. For aligning an AM receiver, set the FUNCTION switch to MOD. The receiver will sound a 1kHz tone. Aligning SSB and CW receivers can be achieved by leaving the switch at OSC for no modulation. Adjust the capacitor trimmers and inductor cores for maximum recei

36、ver S meter reading or maximum speaker output. Use as Crystal Checker and Marker Generator Your DM-81 car, be modified as a crystal checker by installing a crystal in Place of the oscillation coil (see Figure 7). You may use either HC-25U or FT-243 crystals. Also, an HC-6U crystal can be checked if

37、plugged into the FT-243 socket. The oscillation signal strength may vary depending on the type and frequency of the crystal used. Adjust the dial for most stable oscillation. KENWOOD DM-81 12 In addition, your DM-81 is applicable as a marker generator by installing a marker crystal of 1MHz, 3.5MHz,

38、or the like. The marker generator is useful for calibrating a receiver dial. Use as an Absorption Frequency Meter Install an oscillation coil covering the desired frequency range into the socket. Turn the SENSITIVITY control ON and adjust to the minimum meter deflection (just before the OFF position

39、 of the control), and set the FUNCTION switch to OSC. You can now use your DM-81 as an absorption frequency meter to receive external energy and indicate its frequency on the meter. Figure 8a shows how to measure oscillator frequency. The oscillator coil is coupled with, or brought near, the absorpt
