5.3.7Weather Alert Frequency Adjustment (RECEIVER)

1)Connect an RF signal generator to the antenna connector. Set the RF signal generator as follows:

Frequency: 162.550MHz with no modulation

Output level: 60dB µ

2)Select the weather channel WX1.

3)Connect a frequency counter to TP1 on the RF Board and adjust RV6 to obtain 1050kHz +/-5Hz on the frequency counter.

5.4TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE

Table 5-4 provides a general trouble-shooting chart for use by a technician to isolate circuitry failures to specific functional areas within the RAY 210.

5.4.1 Master Reset

The first step in attempting to clear a problem associated with the general operation of this radio is to perform a MASTER RESET. This can be done by pressing the [FUNC] and [16] keys simultaneously, and while holding, turning the power on. This should be performed anytime a component or PCB within the radio is replaced. This function will clear the RAY210 memory and will return it to its factory settings.

It should be noted that micro-components within the radio are generally not field replaceable, therefore, repairs to the radio typically go down to the board level only. A replacement parts list for the RAY210 can be found in Section 6.
