Connecting the radome scanner inter-unit cable

CAUTION:

Before wiring the scanner unit, make sure that the inter-unit cable is not connected and power is not applied to the display unit.

When you have run the inter-unit cable to the scanner location, connect the cable as follows:

1.Loosen the 4 (18") or 7 (24") screws securing the scanner cover. These screws are captive and should remain assembled to the lower flange assembly. Press the radome inwards to release the top. This breaks the seal and makes removal easier.

2.To avoid losing the scanner cover, tie the cord, attached to the inside of the base of the scanner, to the eye provided in the cover.

3.If you have a 24" scanner, unscrew and remove the inner cover:
