3.4 Checking Magnetron Heater Voltage
Magnetron heater voltage is formed on the PTU (1833)/MD (1933/1943) Board of the
antenna unit, and preadjusted at the factory. Therefore no adjustment is required. However,
check magnetron heater voltage for confirmation as follows:
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 PTU (1833) or
RTB (1933/1943) Board in the antenna unit. Refer to the table in below.
4. Confirm that the multimeter indication is appropriate.
