３Ｘ Potentiometer Measure the voltage between the center pin
voltage measure and the ground with the tester.

・Center pin (pin no.2)

Note: ・Recommend the digital-multi-meter with clips for easy work.

・Potentiometer

・Center pin (pin no.2)

・Wing nut of ACU
Connect the ground and the wing nut of ACU.

４Ｘ Potentiometer Make the voltage of X potentiometer

setting ＋0±0.05Ｖ（-0.05Ｖ∼+0.05Ｖ）
by turning the X potentiometer axis with
(-)screwdriver(k).

・EL potentiometer axis

Attention: The voltage to set up is different from the EL potentiometer adjustment.

５Set screws Fix the set screws carefully with keeping the
installation voltage as mentioned above

voltage check(Ⅰ) Turn the antenna counterclockwise until it stops.
Check the X potentiometer voltage is .
‐1.65Ｖ±0.1Ｖ（‐1.75Ｖ∼‐1.55Ｖ）.

・Stopper

8 Ｘ Potentiometer Turn the antenna clockwise until it stops. Check

voltage check(Ⅱ) the X potentiometer voltage is
1.65Ｖ±0.1Ｖ（1.55Ｖ∼1.75Ｖ）.
If the result is not correct, try again from the
beginning.

・Stopper
Attention: ・The voltage of Ｘ Potentiometer is 0[V] at two points.
・If 4 ‘X potentiometer setting’ completed correctly, the result will be as
F−2

mentioned above.
Reference: ・X potentiometer 51 [mV]／1 [deg]

After all repair works( Ａ∼Ｆ ), Pay attention not to leave any screws and tools in the radome.
Finally, check the improvement along the 5. ’Final check list’.
