Setup
Setup consists of three basic steps: moving the Cal Cart into position, installing the vent plugs, and connecting AC
power and the RF line. These steps are explained in more detail below.
1.
Remove the shipping plugs from the load.
2.
Install the vent plugs, shown in Figure 2.
Note:
The AC power supply required is 115/230 V @ 50/60 Hz, 1f. The unit is equipped with an IEC 320
“cold” (65°C) AC inlet.
Note:
If the load is not equipped with a blower, then the Bird Cal Cart may run on battery power after the
4421’s batteries have been charged.
Note:
To connect the Cal Cart to the RF source, use 50 ohm coaxial cable suitable for the frequency and
power level of operation. Use a connector which will mate with the cart’s exposed RF connector.
WARNING
Do not attempt to lift the cart by the handle.
WARNING
All vent plugs must be installed on the load at all times when the unit is operating or cooling. Failure to do so could result in
an explosion or severe burns.
WARNING
Never attempt to connect or disconnect RF equipment from the transmission line while RF power is being applied.Leaking RF
energy is a potential health hazard.
CAUTION
Check the electrical code for proper AC hookup prior to operation of the unit. Make sure the neutral or return
hookup is only used for that purpose.
CAUTION
Changing the sensor’s connectors will invalidate calibration data, and may reduce the maximum
power rating of the unit.
CAUTION
Use the Bird Cal Cart in a dry, dust and vibration free environment. Do not use outdoors or in areas of condensing
humidity. Allow at least 12" (30 cm) of clearance around the load.
WARNING
RF Safety Cover provides protection against RF power. Do not defeat this safety device.
