Cable DPYCY-1.5 (for the optional deicer)
• Before beginning any work on the antenna unit, turn off the breaker for the de-icer
at the mains switchboard. (Turning off the display unit has no effect.)
• The neck of the antenna unit becomes VERY HOT when the de-icer is working.
(The de-icer turns on when ambient temperature goes down to 5°C and heats to
55°C.)
2.2.2 How to connect the cables
If there is a chance of inclement
weather when the transceiver unit is
removed, cover the intake on both
covers with packing tape for
waterproofing. Be sure to remove the
tape after completing the installation.
Some parts or wiring have been omitted from the illustrations for clarity.
1. Unfasten four bolts from the rear cover to remove the rear cover. If the deicer is
already installed or will be installed, remove two bolts inside the antenna to enable
removal of the front cover. See Note 2.
Note 1: The cable for the performance monitor is connected between the rear
cover and the RF-TB Board in the antenna unit. Open the cover slowly to prevent
damage to the cable and connector.
