Setting and adjustment of the NSK unit
The NSK Unit of the radar equipment is designed to be compatible with almost all types
of gyro compass by switch operation (For the step motor type, 20 VDC to 170 VDC, and
for the synchro-motor type, the primary excitation voltage is 35 VAC to 120 VAC).
Before power-on operation, the switches S1, S2, S3, S4, S5 and jumper TB105 on the
NSK Unit shall be set to the type of gyro compass in use in accordance with the
procedures as described below. The gyro select switch on the gyro I/F circuit is set to the
gyration ratio of 180X and to be compatible with the step type before delivery from
factory. Check the type of the gyro compass used in own ship and make settings in the
procedures below.
1 Set the switches of the NSK Unit before turning on the radar equipment.
S1:
Set it to [OFF].
S2 and S3:
There are two types of gyro compasses: a compass of one type outputs a step
