1.2 Transmitter ON
When the STANDBY status is displayed on the screen, press the transmit switch labeled
STBY/TX on the control head of the display unit.
The radar is initially set to previously used range and pulsewidth. Other settings such as
brilliance levels, VRMs, EBLs and menu option selections are also set to previous set-
tings.
The transmit switch toggles the radar between STANDBY and TRANSMIT status. The
antenna stops in STANDBY status and rotates in TRANSMIT status.
If the antenna does not rotate in TRANSMIT status, check whether the antenna switch in
the tuning compartment is in the OFF position.
The magnetron ages with time resulting in a reduction of output power. It is highly recom-
mended that the radar be set to STANDBY status when not used for an extended period of
time.
Note: The example screens shown in this manual may not match the screens you see on
your display. The screen you see depends on your system configuration and equipment
settings.
Quick start
Provided that the radar was once in use with the transmitter tube (magnetron) still warm,
you can turn the radar into TRANSMIT condition without 3-minutes standby. If the [POWER]
switch has been turned off by mistake or the like and you wish to restart the radar promptly,
turn on the switch not later than 10 seconds after power-off.
Video freeze-up or lock-up can occur unex-
pectedly on any digital rasterscan radars.
This is mainly caused by heavy spike noise
in the power line and can be noticed by
carefully watching the nearly visible sweep
line. If you suspect that the picture is not
updated every scan of the antenna or no
key entry is accepted notwithstanding the
apparently normal pictures, do Quick Start
to restore normal operation.
1. Turn off the [POWER] switch and within
10 seconds turn it on again.
2. Press the Transmit switch labeled
STBY/TX for transmit condition.
Note: This equipment has a self-diagnostic
function to check operational software
periodically. If any trouble has been found,
the ERROR lamp lights. In this case, do the
above procedure.
