6. TESTING PROCEDURES

The tuning fork tests explained below should be conducted

at the beginning and end of each patrol shift to ensure the

accuracy and functionality of the unit. The results of these

tests may be recorded in a radar log, similar to the log

found at the end of this manual. The internal circuit and

antenna tests are periodically performed automatically

while the unit is in use.

6.1 POWER ON

Press and release the PWR switch. The unit will light all

the LCD segments and perform a crystal cross check to

verify the accuracy of the speed processing circuitry.

If these tests pass, the unit will display "PAS" in the

TARGET display window, stationary mode, or both target

and PATROL display windows in the moving mode. This

will remain for approximately one (1) second. The displays

will clear and the unit will be operational.

6.2 AUTOMATIC SELF-TEST

As long as the unit is turned on, the FalconHR performs an

internal accuracy test every 5 minutes or whenever the

unit's mode of operation is changed, such as moving to

stationary, and each time the target speed is locked.

This test is automatic and will not interfere with any radar

speed readings being taken. The test passing does not

appear in the displays, but if an error is detected during this

test, the TARGET window will indicate "Err" and further

speed-readings are prohibited.
