When the De-Icer is installed
1) Before beginning any work on the scanner unit, turn off both the DE-ICER switch (S31) on
the sub panel of the display unit and the breaker for the de-icer line at the main switchboard
to remove the power (100 VAC, 1ø) to the de-icer. (Turning off the power to the display unit
has no effect.)
2) The neck of the scanner unit becomes VERY HOT when the de-icer is working. (The de-
icer turns on when ambient temperature is below 0°C.)
2.2 Display Unit Connection
Two cables are terminated at the display unit: the signal cable RW-4839 or RW-6895 and the
power cable. The signal cable, available in lengths of 15m, 20m, or 30m, comes with a connec-
tor preattached to it for connection to the display unit.
