Chapter 1. GENERAL
1.1 Outline
The antenna unit uses a Log IF amplifier. The scanner unit is the same as that of FR-2115
(12KW) and FR-2125 (25kW). The difference between 6 kW and 12 kW sets is the use of
different type of the magnetron, and different setting of magnetron current.
The features are;
6 pulselengths enabling echo size on the screen to be similar in all ranges.
m
Flash ROM enabling program update to use a PC.
Non-interlace, high-resolution display (1024q768 dots).
Improved short-range performance using shorter pulselength and higher repetition rate than
.co
before.

The trigger pulse from the SPU (Processor) Board is delivered to the MODULATOR Board
which outputs the signal to oscillate the magnetron, and then radar wave is emitted from the
radiator.
RX
-g
The 9.4 GHz echo signal received by the antenna is converted to 60 MHz signal by the MIC,
amplified by IF Amplifier, and fed to the SPU (Processor) Board as a video signal. It is digitally
processed and then displayed on the CRT. The SPU Board contains a video amplifier.
all
Plotter (optional)
Data such as latitude and longitude in NMEA format is delivered from the SPU Board to the RP
Board. Plotter data generated on the RP Board is output to the SPU Board and processed to
display them on the screen. The plotter menu is generated on the SPU Board.

Start-up Sequence
Radar start-up sequence
Process
1. The soft start circuit activates to protect the power ON/OFF
relay contacts.
2. The input voltage monitor checks for abnormal voltage.
When ship’s mains is abnormal the ON/OFF relay trips off.
3. The inverter comes on and output all line voltages. The
LED comes on and the inverter goes off when overcurrent
is detected.
4. ROM, RAM, I/O port, custom IC, AGDC and VRAM are
initialized.
5. The system is initialized using EEPROM and DIP switch
data.
6. The timer starts counting down from 3 minutes (time
remaining for warm-up of magnetron).
7. Checks for the absence/presence of a gyro signal.
8. Checks for the absence/presence of the ARP and RP
Boards.
9. The SPU Board starts operating.
Note) When H-sync signal is not applied to the CRT unit,
no HV is generated, resulting in nothing on the screen.
10. The bearing scale, countdown indication, etc. appear.
11. EEPOT memorizes the preset value.
12. The screen is degaussed automatically.
3-minute warm-up can be skipped by pressing [ENTER]
several times while pressing and holding down [HL OFF].
(Do not release this information to user.)
13. Three-minute warm-up ends.
14. The radar goes into stand-by.
15. Checks for presence of BP (Bearing Pulse) signal.
16. The tuning circuit goes into “short search mode.”
17. When the range is changed, the tuning circuit goes into
“short search mode.”
18. Panel settings are written onto the EPROM.
19. Time data are written onto the EPROM.

The system provides auto tuning mode which eliminates the adjustment of the receiver for
maximum echoes. The “Tune Initialization” is required after not only the installation but also the
replacement of RF unit, magnetron, MIC, and SPU board, so that the tune control voltages for
each pulse are memorized onto the EEPROM. The figure below illustrates how the tune
initialization takes place. First, full search is performed using a long pulse to find the tuning
point (a). Next, short search is performed using all pulses to find tuning points (b). After the
initialization, the pulselength used before the tune initialization is selected.
Full search: Varying tune control voltage (TUNE CONT) from about 5 V to 32 V, the
maximum tune indicator voltage is found and that tune control voltage (a) is
memorized.
Short search: The tune control voltage changes between the tune voltage (a) plus and minus
2.5 V for fine tuning.
When the radar is set from ST-BY to TX, short search is made twice. When pulselength is
changed, short search is made once.

Tuning Indication
The tuning indicator extends more than 80% of its full length on all ranges at best tuning.
The self-test result display reads the tune indicator voltage.
Manual Tuning
When tuning mode is changed from auto to manual mode, the tuning control voltage (a) found in
full search is selected. In manual tuning mode, the graphical tuning control voltage indicator
appears on the screen. The minimum scale is 4.9 V and the maximum scale is 32 V.

Trail Copy
Trails can be continued even when the range is changed to a next larger or smaller range scale.
Note, however, that when the range is changed, no trail generated for targets outside of the
previous range.
Thin Trail
Thin trail is generated for the echo level of 8 or more, and the echo size of 8 or more (bearing
direction) x 3 or more (range direction). The width of echo trail may become bigger depending
on the size and shape of the target.

1) ARP-10 dose not require QV echo adjustment at installation, unlike other existing ARPs.
No check point for QV echo is provided. The ARP display can be turned on/off thru the
ARP menu. The ARP data appears even when ship’s speed and gyro data are not supplied.
2) The ARP board is checked whether it is installed or not at every power-on, using the
communication line between SPU and ARP boards.
When the ARP display is on thru the menu and the ARP board is not fitted, the message
“ARP is not connected” appears.
3) When the target is not acquired, carry out the self test at TX condition.
TRIGGER/VIDEO/BP/HD must be OK, and FE-DATA 1/DATA 2must vary depending on
the gain setting. The lower the gain setting, the smaller the FE DATA value. The FE DATA
must not exceed 1000 with the maximum gain setting.
4) The program is stored on the flash ROM, not PROM, so a program writter MT-08 or PC is
required for updating the program.

3. Automatic tracking
A tracking target is judged as a lost target when no return is received for nine consecutive sweeps.
When the system detects a loss of a tracking target, the target symbol becomes a flashing diamond.
A lost target will be reacquired and tracked when acquisition condition again becomes satisfactory.
¡ Automatic tracking is discontinued when the target moves out of the acquisition range (less than
0.1 nm or greater than 16 nm).
Target discrimination
A target measuring about 800 m or more in the radial or circumferential direction is regarded as
a landmass and not acquired or tracked. Echoes smaller than about 800 m are regarded as true
target.

Main-inverter
When the power switch is pressed, +12V regulator Q5 starts operating, and power is applied to
the input voltage detector and switching regulator control circuit.
The switching regulator is turned on with the input voltage of 21.6 V or more, and turned off
when the input voltage is 19 V or less. The main-inverter derives +/-12 V from the input voltage.
Sub-inverter
The sub-inverter derives +115 V for the CRT circuit from +/-12 V, output of main-inverter. +5 V
and +32 V for tuning control is generated by a regulator from +12 V.
Protector
The protector activates when the input voltage is lower than 19 V or higher than 43 V. The
protector in the power supply line for antenna motor trips when the current is 8 A or more for
more than 2.5 seconds. The TX-HV protector circuit is turned on when 8 A flows on the +12 V
line. The short circuit protector for +115 V is provided in the sub-inverter.

Main-inverter
When the power switch is pressed, +12V regulator, Q5 starts operating, and power is applied to
the input voltage detector and switching regulator control circuit.
The switching regulator is turned on with the input voltage of 85 V or more. The main-inverter
derives +/-12 V. The switching frequency is adjusted by VR1 to 22.5 kHz.
Sub-inverter
The sub-inverter derives +115 V for the CRT circuit from +/-12 V, output of main-inverter. +5 V
and +32 V for tuning control is generated by a regulator from +12 V.
Protector
The protector activates when the input voltage is higher than 135 to 150 V (for 110 V sets),
turning off relay K2. The rush current protector, Q11 controls the current which flows into
smoothing capacitors. The Q11 is bypassed when the transformer T1 outputs the voltage
designed. The protector in the power supply line for antenna motor trips when the current is 8 A
or more for more than 2.5 seconds. The TX-HV protector circuit is turned on when 8 A flows on
the +12 V line. The short circuit protector for +115 V is provided in the sub-inverter.

Radiator
A feeder waveguide is built-in the radiator XN-12 AF, XN-20 AF and XN-24 AF for ease-
installation. The XN-20 AF and XN-24 AF are the same electrical characteristic with XN-3 A
m
and XN-4 A respectively.
Gear Box
.co
The mounting dimensions, the size of the gear box, and cabling layout have not been changed
from the traditional Furuno radars. Changed is the radiator mounting bracket for a new radiator.
The gear box can be equipped with a motor of either 24 rpm or 42 rpm type.
RF Unit
The 10 kW and 25 kW RF units are the same in size. The magnetron of 25 kW is a new type,
es
smaller in size. The RF modulator generates short pulse 1 (S1) which has pulselength of 0.07 us
and pulse repetition rate of 3000 Hz. Traditionally, the S1 is 0.08 us and 2200 Hz.
The magnetron current monitor circuit ensures a defective magnetron being found easily. When
the magnetron is short- or open-circuited, the magnetron current detector reads 1 to 1.5 V.

Chapter 3. ADJUSTMENT
Hazardous Voltage
This equipment uses high voltage electricity which can SHOCK, BURN
or cause DEATH.
Always make sure the electrical power is turned off before attempting to
change a component or inspecting the inside of the equipment. A
residual charge may exist in capacitors, even with the equipment turned
off. Always short all supply lines to the chassis with an insulated
screwdriver or a similar tool before touching the circuit.
Work on the scanner unit mast is dangerous, and doubly so if the proper
precautions are not taken.
1. Post an appropriate warning sign near the display unit to indicate that
work on the scanner unit is being performed, to prevent accidental
application of the power to the scanner unit.
2. Wear a safety helmet and always be aware of where the scanner
radiator is.
