11. Checking magnetron heater
voltage
Magnetron heater voltage is formed on the
MD Board (03P9235) of the scanner unit, and
is preadjusted at the factory for use with any
length of signal cable. Therefore no adjust-
ment is required. However, check magnetron
heater voltage as follows:
1. Turn on the radar and leave it in stand-by.
2. Open the scanner cover.
3. Unfasten four screws to remove the RF
section cover.
DANGER
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
This check is done with the
power on — DO NOT touch
the magnetron.
