Check Procedure 
 
c  Read the value A of the current bar length. 
d  Referring to the Calibration Curve I, obtain the relative attenuation d (B) for the 
initial bar length B shown on the INFORMATION LABEL. 
e  Referring to the Calibration Curve I, obtain the relative attenuation d (A) for the value 
A.    The result of d (A) - d (B) indicates the current attenuation of transmitted power 
compared with the initially specified value. 
f  When d (A) - d (B) indicates attenuation of 10 dB or more (due to the end of 
magnetron’s life), the transmitter system needs to be inspected by the service 
engineer.
