Section 6—Testing Procedures
__________________________________________________
6.4
The tuning fork tests should be conducted in an area with no
traffic. If this is not possible, point the antenna away from
moving vehicles to avoid reflections.
Tuning fork test tolerance: + 1 MPH (1 km/h).
** Due to the ability of the Directional Golden Eagle II
to reject non-directional signals, the operator must place
the unit in the
TEST mode
to read tuning forks.
Momentarily depress the TEST switch. Upon releasing
this switch, the Directional Golden Eagle II will
complete the internal tests and enter the tuning fork
TEST mode.
NOTE: The unit will remain in the TEST mode for 30
seconds after releasing the TEST switch, indicated
by the flashing STPW/TEST LED. Tuning fork
tests may be performed while in this mode.
Changing to a new mode will refresh the timeout to
30 seconds, allowing fork testing in different
modes without leaving the TEST mode. Pressing
the TEST switch again, while in the TEST mode
will exit the TEST mode immediately.
6.5.1 STATIONARY & OPPOSITE DIRECTION
MOVING MODES
1. Press the MODE switch until the Directional Golden
Eagle II is in the stationary ALL mode (ALL in the
PATROL window and both directional road graphic
indicators should be lit). Use the remote control to
change to the desired antenna. If the unit is displaying
"Hld" in the TARGET window, depress the HOLD
switch to place the unit in a transmitting mode.
