3.4Checking Magnetron Heater Voltage

Note: This confirmation/adjustment should only be performed by a qualified service technician.

Magnetron heater voltage is formed on the PTU (1833C-BB)/MD (1823C-BB/1933C-BB/ 1943C-BB/1953C-BB) 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 10 VDC range, on the MD (1823C-BB), PTU (1833C-BB) or RTB (1933C-BB/1943C-BB/1953C-BB) Board in the antenna unit, referring to the table below.

4.Confirm that the multimeter indication is as shown in the table below.
