3.1.1 Power ON and Start the System
 
!
• A malfunction may occur if the power in the ship is 
instantaneously interrupted during operation of the 
radar.  In this case, the power should be turned on 
again.
• Wait for about 2 seconds before turning on the power again.
• Immediately after the radar is installed, at start of the system 
after it has not been used for a long time, or after the 
magnetron is replaced, preheat the equipment in the standby 
state for 20 to 30 minutes before setting it into the transmit 
state.
• If the preheating time is short, the magnetron causes sparks, 
resulting in its unstable oscillation. 
Start transmission on a short-pulse range and change the 
range to the longer pulse ranges in turn.  If the transmission is 
unstable in the meantime, immediately place the system back 
into the standby state and maintain it in the standby state for 5 
to 10 minutes before restarting the operation. 
Repeat these steps until the operation is stabilized.
