** Due to the ability of the FalconHR to reject non-
directional signals, the operator must place the unit in
the TEST mode to read tuning forks. Momentarily
depress the TEST switch. Upon releasing this switch,
the FalconHR will complete the internal tests and
enter the tuning fork TEST mode.
The unit will remain in the TEST mode for 30
seconds after releasing the TEST switch, indicated by
the flashing TEST indicator. Tuning fork tests may be
performed while in this mode. Changing to a new
mode will refresh the timeout to 30 seconds, allowing
fork testing in different modes without leaving the
TEST mode. Pressing the TEST switch again, while in
the TEST mode, will exit the TEST mode immediately.
6.4.1 STATIONARY TUNING FORK TEST
1. Place the FalconHR in the stationary "ALL" mode of
operation.
2. Verify the range level is set to maximum. Press the
RNG switch to display "rnG", and then use the UP
arrow to increase the range level to maximum.
3. Momentarily press the TEST switch to enter the TEST
mode. The TEST indictor will be flashing while in the
TEST state.
4. Lightly strike the lower speed tuning fork on a hard,
nonmetallic surface. Place the fork in front of the
antenna and pull the trigger, if the unit is handheld. If it
is dash mounted make sure it is not in HOLD. Verify a
target speed display of the value stamped on the tuning
fork, +1 mph (+1 km/h).
