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 the oven is plugged in, 120 volts A.C. is supplied to
the control unit. (Figure O-1).
1. The display will show flashing "88:88".
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
Open the door. Program desired cooking time by touching
the NUMBER pads. And program the power level by touch-
ing the POWER LEVEL pad and then a Number pad.
When close the door and the START pad is touched, the
following operations occur:
1. The contacts of the relays are closed and components
connected to the relays are turned on as follows.

2. 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the primary winding of the
power transformer and is converted to about 3.5 volts
A.C. output on the filament winding, and approximately
2000 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, door sensing switch, secondary interlock
switch and primary interlock relay are activated with the
following results. The circuits to the oven lamp, turntable
motor, the cooling fan motor, and the high voltage
components are de-energized, and the digital read-out
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
relay (RY2) 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
secondary interlock switch, door sensing switch and
primary interlock relay (RY2) open their contacts. Then
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 secondary interlock switch and door sensing
switch close.
If the secondary interlock switch and primary interlock relay
(RY2) fail with the contacts closed when the door is opened,
the closing of the monitor switch contacts will form a short
circuit through the C/T fuse, secondary interlock switch and
primary interlock relay (RY2), causing the C/T fuse to blow.
