1. The contacts of relays are closed and components
connected to the relays are turned on as follows.

2. 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the inverter unit and is
converted in order to power of the magnetron by the high
frequency switching power circuit. The frequency is
approx. 27 _ 40 KHz.
3. The filament winding voltage of H.V. transformer heats
the magnetron filament and the H.V. winding gives a
high voltage approx. 2 KV to activaite a voltage doubler
circuit. Then approx. 4KV peak voltage power is supplied
to the magnetron cathode terminal.
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 inverter unit,
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, stop switch, secondary interlock switch and primary
interlock switch are activated with the following results.
The circuits to the stirrer motor, the cooling fan motor, the
turntable motor, and the inverter unit are de-energized,
and the touch screen displays the time still remaining in
the cook cycle when the door was opened.
7. The monitor switch is electrically monitoring the operation
of the secondary interlock switch and primary interlock
switch and is mechanically associated with the door so
that it will function in the following sequence.
(1) When the door opens from a closed position, the
primary interlock switch and secondary interlock
switch open their contacts, and then the monitor
switch contacts close. And contacts of the relay
(RY1) remain closed.
(2) When the door is closed from the open position, the
monitor switch contacts first open and the stop
switch contacts open, and then the contacts of the
secondary interlock switch and primary interlock
switch close. And contacts of the relay (RY1) open.
If the secondary interlock switch and primary interlock
switch fail with their contacts closed when the door is
opened, the closing of the monitor switch contacts will form
a short circuit through the monitor fuse, secondary interlock
switch, primary interlock switch and relay (RY1) causing the
monitor fuse to blow.
VARIABLE COOKING
When Variable Cooking Power is programmed, the 120
volts A.C. is supplied to the inverter unit which is operated
by the control unit. Microwave power operation is as follows:
The oven can be set for any of 11 power levels: 0% to
100%(HIGH). The variable cooking power less than 40% is
programmed at the ratio of ON time and OFF time within 32
sec./ cycle time base.

Note: The ON/OFF time ratio does not correspond with
the percentage of microwave power, because
approx. 3 seconds are needed for heating of the
magnetron filament.
SENSOR COOKING CONDITION
Using the Sensor cooking function (See sensor cooking
menus), the food is cooked without figuring time, power level
or quantity. When the oven senses enough steam from the
food, it relays the information to its microprocessor which will
calculate the remaining cooking time and power level needed
for best results. When the food is cooked, water vapor is
developed. The sensor “senses” the vapor and its resistance
increases gradually. When the resistance reaches the value
set according to the menu, supplementary cooking is started.
The time of supplementary cooking is determined by experi-
ment with each food category and input into the LSI.
An example of how sensor works: (BAKED POTATOES)
1. Potatoes at room temperature. Vapor is emitted very
slowly.
2. Heat Potatoes. Moisture and humidity is emitted rapidly.
You can smell the aroma as it cooks.
