Antenna Mast and Turntable Controller

Antenna Mast and Turntable Controller

  • AMTTC-300 Antenna Mast and Turntable Controller for automated EMC radiated testing — provides fully automated control of Com-Power antenna masts and turntables for radiated emissions and immunity measurements.
  • Multi-device control with up to three independent channels — a single controller drives an antenna mast, a turntable, and a third positioner simultaneously, streamlining radiated EMC test setups.
  • Manual front-panel control from the test area — operators can position the turntable or antenna mast directly from the chamber using the front panel and 16 × 2 alphanumeric LCD.
  • Full PC automation via USB 2.0 interface — the controller is programmable from a personal computer using a complete documented command set, enabling automated height scans and turntable rotation during compliance testing.
  • Fiber-optic interface eliminates RF noise — duplex POF (plastic optical fiber) links to the antenna mast and turntable keep the control path immune to RF interference in the test chamber, with a 10 m crossover cable standard (up to 30 m optional).
  • Variable speed control for the turntable — adjustable rotation speed gives precise control during azimuth scans and dwell positioning for radiated emissions and immunity tests.
  • On-site calibration of antenna mast and turntable — built-in software limits, always displayed on the front panel, can be enabled or disabled from the panel or PC software for safe positioning and field calibration.
  • 19" 3U rack-mountable design with a three-year warranty — integrates cleanly into EMC test racks alongside spectrum analyzers and receivers, running on universal 100–250 VAC input.

How it works: The AMTTC-300 connects to Com-Power antenna masts and turntables over RF-immune duplex fiber-optic links. Operators position equipment manually from the front panel inside the test area, or automate height scans and turntable rotation from a PC over USB 2.0 using the documented command set.
Integration: The 19" 3U rack-mountable chassis fits standard EMC test racks and supports on-site calibration of the connected antenna mast and turntable.
