    1.1 Antenna Unit Installation Mounting considerations When selecting a mounting location for the antenna unit keep in mind the following points. • Install the antenna unit on the hardtop, radar arch or on a mast on an appropriate platform. (For sailboats, a mounting bracket is optionally available.) It should be placed where there is a good all-round view with, as far as possible, no part of the ship’s...
  • Page 8 Mounting on a platform Remove mounting hardware at the bottom of the antenna unit; four each of hex bolts (M10X20), spring washers and flat washers. Save mounting hardware to use it to fix the antenna unit to the mounting platform later Stern Figure 3 Antenna unit, showing location of mounting hardware...

    1.2 Display Unit Installation Mounting considerations When selecting a mounting location for the display unit keep in mind the following points. • Locate the display unit in a position where you can view and operate it conveniently. • The orientation of the display unit should be so the radar screen is viewed while the operator is facing in the direction of the bow.

    3.2 Exchanging Display Unit of Previous Model When exchanging the display unit of the MODEL 1712 with that of the MODEL 1622 or 1621/1621 MARK-2, it is necessary to select the appropriate display setting. This should be done with the radar in stand-by.
  • Page 17 2) Heading alignment You have mounted the antenna unit facing straight ahead in the direction of the bow. Therefore, a small but conspicuous target dead ahead visually should appear on the heading mark (zero degrees). In practice, you will probably observe some small error on the display because of the difficulty in achieving accurate initial positioning of the antenna unit.
  • Page 18 3) Sweep timing This adjustment ensures proper radar performance, especially on short ranges. The radar measures the time required for a transmitted echo to travel to the target and return to the source. The received echo appears on the display based on this time. Thus, at the instant the transmitter is fired, the sweep should start from the center of the display (sometimes called sweep origin.)
  • Page 19: Adjustments For Technicians

    3.4 Adjustments for Technicians 1) Magnetron heater voltage Magnetron heater voltage is formed at the MD Board of the antenna unit and preadjusted at the factory for use with any length of signal cable. Therefore no adjustment is required. However, verify heater voltage as follows: CAUTION Lift the radome cover slowly.
