Preface

This handbook describes the following Raytheon Pathfinder radar scanners:

2D 18" 2 kW Radome Scanner

4D 24" 4 kW Radome Scanner

5S 48" 4 kW Open Array Scanner

7S 72" 4 kW Open Array Scanner

9S 48" 10 kW Open Array Scanner

11S 72" 10 kW Open Array Scanner

These scanner units may be connected to any HSB display unit. In addition, the 2D and 4D radome scanner units may be connected to SL70, or Autohelm 7" LCD display.

CAUTION:

The open array scanners must not be used with the SL70 or Autohelm 7" LCD Display Unit. This may result in damage to the display due to the high power requirements of the open array scanner.

The handbook contains very important information on the instal- lation and operation of your new equipment. In order to obtain the best results in operation and performance, please read this hand- book thoroughly.

Raytheon’s Product Support representatives or your local dealer will be available to answer any questions you may have.

Display Software Version

For full operation of the open array scanners, the display unit requires an appropriate software version. For new displays, the correct software version is normally already installed in the dis- play unit and is fully compatible with the 2D and 4D radome scanners.

Early display units may not have the correct software for use with open array scanners and will therefore require upgrading.

The software version can be confirmed by switching-on the dis- play and checking the version number during the magnetron warm-up sequence.
