    WIRING Overview The procedure explanations in this chapter mainly use illustrations of the magnetron radar. Some parts are omitted in the illustrations for clarity. Cable considerations To lessen the chance of picking up electrical interference where possible, avoid rout- ing the antenna cable (power and LAN lines) near other onboard electrical equipment (radars, TX radio antennas, etc.).
  • Page 66 2. WIRING 2.1.1 Standard wiring A Cat 5e LAN cable (RW-00135, RW-00339) connects between the Antenna Unit (Power Supply Unit for FAR-2258/2268DS) and the Processor Unit. The maximum length of the cabling between the Processor Unit and the Antenna Unit is 80 m. Retrofit (using antenna cable RW-96006895/4896) or foremast installation is also pos- sible, with the installation of a pair of LAN Signal Converters, one in the Antenna Unit, the other in the Processor Unit.

If the de-icer is already installed, loosen two bolts inside the antenna to remove the front cover. Note 1: The cable for the performance monitor is connected between the rear cover and the RF-TB Board in the Antenna Unit.
  • Page 74 2. WIRING 2. Disconnect the performance monitor connector (J807) and the motor drive con- nectors (J803, J804 and J808) from the RF-TB Board. 3. Unfasten the six bolts in the figure below to enable removal of the transceiver unit. Then, pull the handle on the transceiver unit to remove the unit. For magnetron radar, lay the unit on its side or on top of non-ferrous material, to prevent demagnetization of the magnetron 4.
  • Page 75 2. WIRING unfasten the four screws circled in the following figure, then orient the cable en- trance in the required direction. Refasten the screws. 5.
