2.7 Return for Service If the instrument should be returned to NARDA for service, please complete
the service questionnaire enclosed with the Operating Manual and attach it to
the instrument.
To minimize the repair time, be as specific as possible when describing the
failure. If the failure only occurs under certain conditions, explain how to
duplicate the failure.
If possible, reusing of the original packaging to ship the equipment is
preferable.
In case other package should be used, ensure to wrap the instrument in
heavy paper or plastic.
Use a strong shipping box and use enough shock absorbing material all
around the equipment to provide a firm cushion and prevent movement in the
shipping box; in particular protect the front panel.
Seal the shipping box securely.
Mark the shipping box FRAGILE to encourage careful handling.
2.8 Equipment Cleaning
Use a clean, dry, non abrasive cloth for external cleaning of the equipment.
To clean the equipment do not use any solvent, thinner, turpentine,
acid, acetone or similar matter to avoid damage to external plastic or
display surfaces.
2.9 Equipment
ventilation
To allow correct equipment ventilation ensure that the vent grids on the
rear panel and on the bottom of the receiver are free by any obstructing
object.
2.10 Hardware
Installation
PMM 9010 is delivered from factory ready to use. Remove the receiver from
its cardboard shipping box and keep the “ON” button pressed until the PW
Led lights up (about 1 second), then release the button. To avoid unwanted
starts, if the “ON” button is kept pressed for a too short time or for more then
2 seconds the instrument is switched automatically off.
After having been switched ON, the PMM 9010 boots with its internal BIOS
and runs the firmware which manages the receiver.
At the beginning the instrument performs a diagnostic test to check if
everything is working properly.
The boot sequence is very fast and the receiver is ready to use in a couple of
seconds after having pressed the ON button.
Before to see the main menu on the LCD display, you will see all the front
panel LED’s flashing ON and OFF.
During the switch-on procedure the LCD displays the results of the autotest
and the release – and date - of the loaded firmware: if the display shows
“OK” it means that the PMM 9010 is working properly. When the sequence is
completed the main screen shows the test results and the main functional
keys on the right of the LCD display: the receiver is now ready to operate.
Connect the output of any LISN, or antenna, or absorbing clamp or any other
transducers to the RF input.
When using a PMM LISN, it is possible to control from the receiver the lines
of the LISN and automatically switch between them connecting a special
cable between the User Port of the receiver and the LISN remote control
input.
Push and keep pressed the “ON/OFF” button for more then 2 seconds to
switch off the receiver.
