Leaving

 

the

setting

 

in

 

manual

 

mode

 

apply

 

drive

 

to

 

the

 

feed

 

assembly

 

and

 

measure

 

the

 

voltage

 

to

 

the

 

motor

 

on

 

the

 

IDC

 

connector,

 

24VDC

 

should

 

be

 

present.

 

If

 

voltage

 

is

 

present

 

but

 

the

 

motor

 

isn’t

 

driving

 

the

 

motor

 

is

 

defective

 

and

 

needs

 

replacing.

 

If

 

no

 

voltage

 

is

 

present

 

verify

 

the

 

connections

 

of

 

the

 

reflector

 

harness

 

by

 

measuring

 

pin

 

to

 

pin

 

as

 

per

 

the

 

below

 

diagram.

 

 

 

If

 

the

 

harness

 

connections

 

are

 

good,

 

then

 

the

 

ICU

 

main

 

PCB

 

isn’t

 

outputting

 

the

 

voltage

 

to

 

drive

 

the

 

motor

 

and

 

needs

 

replacing.

 

As

 

long

 

as

 

the

 

pol

 

range

 

is

 

within

 

the

 

pot

 

limits

 

the

 

ICU

 

will

 

issue

 

the

 

voltage

 

to

 

drive

 

the

 

motor

 

based

 

on

 

the

 

antenna

 

targeting,

 

a

 

change

 

in

 

the

 

vessels

 

GPS

 

position

 

or

 

operator

 

inputs.

 

The

 

motor

 

will

 

then

 

drive

 

the

 

feed

 

until

 

the

 

correct

 

output

 

from

 

the

 

pot

 

has

 

been

 

received,

 

at

 

which

 

point

 

the

 

feed

 

will

 

be

 

in

 

the

 

correct

 

reception

 

position

 

(providing

 

the

 

system

 

is

 

functioning

 

and

 

calibrated

 

correctly).

 

Therefore

 

there

 

is

 

also

 

the

 

possibility

 

for

 

a

 

pol

 

drive

 

fault

 

to

 

be

 

caused

 

by

 

the

 

ICU

 

motherboard

 

PCB.
