OPERATION
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATING SEQUENCE
The following is a description of component functions during
oven operation.
OFF CONDITION
Closing the door activates the door sensing switch and
secondary interlock switch. (In this condition, the monitor
switch contacts are opened.)
When oven is plugged in, 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the
control unit. (Figure O-1).
1. The display will show flashing"WELCOME,
PRESS CLEAR"
To set any program or set the clock, you must first touch
the STOP/CLEAR pad. The display will clear, and " : "
will appear.
COOKING CONDITION
Program desired cooking time by touching the NUMBER
pads. Program the power level by touching the POWER
LEVEL pad and then a Number pad.
When the START pad is touched, the following operations
occur:
1. The contacts of relays are closed and components
connected to the relays are turned on as follows.
(For details, refer to Figure O-2)
RELAY
CONNECTED COMPONENTS
RY-1
oven lamp/turntable motor/fan motor
RY-2
power transformer
2. 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the primary winding of the
power transformer and is converted to about 3.3 volts
A.C. output on the filament winding, and approximately
2370 volts A.C. on the high voltage winding.
3. The filament winding voltage heats the magnetron filament
and the H.V. winding voltage is sent to a voltage doubler
circuit.
4. The microwave energy produced by the magnetron is
channelled through the waveguide into the cavity feed-
box, and then into the cavity where the food is placed to
be cooked.
5. Upon completion of the cooking time, the power
transformer, oven lamp, etc. are turned off, and the
generation of microwave energy is stopped. The oven
will revert to the OFF condition.
6. When the door is opened during a cook cycle, the monitor
switch, secondary switch, door sensing switch, primary
switch and secondary interlock relay are activated with
the following results. The circuits to the turntable motor,
the cooling fan motor, and the high voltage components
are de-energized, the oven lamp remains on, and the
digital read-out displays the time still remaining in the
cook cycle when the door was opened.
7. The monitor switch electrically monitors the operation of
the primary switch and primary and is mechanically
associated with the door so that it will function in the
following sequence.
1) When the door opens from the closed position, the primary
switch, secondary switch, door sensing switch, and
secondary interlock relay open their contacts and the
monitor switch contacts close.
(2) When the door is closed from the open position, the
monitor switch contacts open first. Then the contacts of
the primary switch and door secondary switch close.
If the primary switch and the secondary switch primary
contacts are closed when the door is opened, the monitor
switch contacts form a short circuit through the monitor fuse,
primary switch and secondary switch causing the monitor
fuse to blow.
POWER LEVEL P-0 TO P-90 COOKING
When Variable Cooking Power is programmed, the 120 volts
A.C. is supplied to the power transformer intermittently
through the contacts of relay (RY-2) which is operated by the
control unit within a 32 second time base. Microwave power
operation is as follows:

Note:
The ON/OFF time ratio does not correspond with the
percentage of microwave power, because approx. 2
seconds are needed for heating of the magnetron
filament.
