3.4 Checking Magnetron Heater Voltage
Magnetron heater voltage is formed on the PTU/MD Board of the antenna unit, and
preadjusted at the factory. Therefore no adjustment is required. However, check magnetron
heater voltage for confirmation as follows:
CAUTION
For MODEL1722/1722C/1723C,
lift the radome cover slowly.
The antenna radiator may be
caught by the screw holes in
the radome cover.
If you feel the radiator is caught
by the screw holes, lower
the cover, turn it a few degree
and then lift it again.
Screw holes
(4 places)
1. Open the antenna unit.
2. Turn on the power. Do not transmit the radar.
3. Connect a multimeter, set to 10VDC range, appropriate position on the MD
(1722/1722C/1723C/1742/1742C/1752/1752C/1753C/1762/1762C/1763C) or PTU
(1732/1732C/1733C) Board in the antenna unit. Refer to the table in below.
4. Confirm that the multimeter indication is appropriate.
