ANTENNA RADIATION HAZARD INJURY CAN RESULT FROM EXPOSURE TO THE MAIN BEAM OF A RADAR ANTENNA AT A DISTANCE FROM THE CENTRAL FRONT FACE, OF LESS THAN: 1.3m (X-Band) Antenna: 3.0 metres 1.8m (X-Band) Antenna: 2.3 metres 2.4m (X-Band) Antenna: 1.5 metres 2.9m (S-Band) Antenna: 1.1 metres 3.9m (S-Band) Antenna: 0.8 metres WARNING DO NOT OPEN ANY OF THE EQUIPMENT UNITS WHEN THE RADAR IS OPERATIONAL ANTENNA ROTATION ANTENNA ROTATION CAN BE HALTED BY SWITCHING THE DISPLAY TO STANDBY OR OFF SERVICING THE EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE SERVICED BY AUTHORISED AGENTS ONLY May 01 vi Original KH 2020 SAFETY WARNINGS Mains Voltage All Kelvin Hughes equipment is supplied with Mains Voltage set for 220V, unless stated otherwise on labels attached to the equipment S-Band Tuning It may be necessary to re-tune the transmitter when changing the pulse length Picture Freeze The rare event of Processor failure is indicated by non-operation of the trackerball, no update of screen data and a frozen tune bar indicator The radar picture may be updated, but plotting is not possible The display is to be switched OFF and ON again to reset the Processor ARPA Failure The ARPA computer is protected by a watchdog circuit, which monitors the ARPA for correct operation In the unlikely event of computer failure, the Operator observes vector footprints becoming detached from targets If this occurs, reset the computer, by pressing the “Delete All Targets” pushbutton twice If the ARPA fails while running, an ARPA FAILURE message is indicated If the ARPA fails to start, a TESTING ARPA message remains on the screen after the initial self-test period of 10 seconds Original vii May 01 KH 2020 CAUTION HANDLING OF ELECTROSTATIC-SENSITIVE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES Certain semiconductor devices used in the equipment are liable to damage due to static voltage Observe the following precautions when handling these devices in their unterminated state, or sub-units containing these devices: Persons removing sub-units from an equipment containing these devices must be earthed by a wrist strap and a resistor at the point provided on the equipment Soldering irons used during the repair operations must be low voltage types with earthed tips and isolated from the mains voltage by a double insulated transformer Outer clothing worn must be unable to generate static charges Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) fitted with these devices must be stored and transported in anti-static bags Fit new devices in a special handling area For detailed information, refer to IEC Standard equivalent standard May 01 viii
