3.8.5 Magnetron timer reset
When the magnetron is replaced and only when it is replaced, the Service Engineer
should reset the timers of the transceiver so that at the next service will be possible to
check how many hours the new magnetron transmitted and in which pulse and PRF and
consequently understand if it is really still new or has to be change again.
The magnetron timers can be reset by pressing the "F" button of Fig 3.7.1 , and accepting
the action pressing "Yes" to the asked question "Are You Sure?".
The Selux system gives a System Warning if the magnetron is on the limit of the end of its
life. A "Magnetron EOL" (End Of Life) will be displayed under the TXRX field in the System
Status Display Menu.
Everything described in this paragraph is valid only in case of RTM Control B PCB
on board of the transceiver (TXRX software version 54 or higher). If this is not the
case, if the magnetron is replaced, it is kindly requested to write down the value of
the Main TX timer (which is placed on the Transformer assy of the transceiver) on a
sticker and attach it on the chassis of the transceiver.
3.8.6 Digital potentiometers reset
This button should be used when it necessary to restore the default preset of the
transceiver when the service engineer is not more able to get back to a working condition.
