4. Intermittent readings caused by pointing the antenna at
the indicating unit (scanning) should not be a concern
to the trained operator. Proper mounting of the antenna
on a dash mount will eliminate this problem. In
addition, these readings would not satisfy all the
requirements of proper tracking history.
5. If the power supply voltage drops below the minimum
operating voltage, the Golden Eagle II will not display
any new speed readings until the low voltage condition
is no longer exists. "Lo" will be displayed in the
TARGET window.
6. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) exists when there
are strong RF transmitting stations in the immediate
area of the radar unit, such as the patrol vehicle's
transmitting radio, high power radio or television
stations. The Golden Eagle II will detect potential false
target sources of interference and the TARGET window
will display "rFi" until the source of interference is
eliminated. The "DCM" antennas are specially
designed to virtually eliminate external forms of RFI
and it is unlikely that "rFi" will ever be displayed while
using these antennas.
7. The vehicle's heater and A/C fan is a known source of
radar interference. These fans create many signals,
both interference noise and true Doppler. Proper
antenna mounting and DSP processing can help reduce
the effects of these fan speed signals. The operator
should always be aware of the possibility of these fan
signals being displayed as target speeds.
Refer to Sec. 3.2.2 and 3.2.3 for mounting antennas.
Refer to Sec 7.8, "Setting Fan Interference Filter
Mode".
