    This document provides instructions for adjusting the Furuno PM-30 Performance Monitor during installation. It describes: 1. Confirming the front cover is securely fastened to prevent microwave leakage. 2. Removing caps from the receiving and transmitting attenuators. 3. Setting up the radar system and activating the Performance Monitor. 4. Adjusting the receiving attenuator so the innermost arcs appear at a range of 12 ±0.5 nm. 5. Adjusting the transmitting attenuator so the outermost arc is slightly visible.

    2.4 Adjustment at Installation
    The PM-30 monitors the performance of a radar set by comparing its present performance
    with the initial performance achieved at installation. In order to establish good reference of
    comparisons, and eventual high-accuracy indications, the PM-30 must be properly adjusted
    at installation.

    Adjustment Procedure

    1. Confirm the front cover of the Performance Monitor is firmly secured with 8 fixing
    screws. (If not, microwave leakage will occur, resulting in misadjustment of attenuator
    ATT02 and eventual poor indicating accuracy.) Note that it is prohibited to open the front
    cover.

    2. Remove the cap bolts of attenuators ATT01 (RX) and ATT02 (TX) provided on the top
    side of the Performance Monitor.

    3. Put the radar in transmit mode.

    4. Set the radar controls as follows:


    RANGE: 24 nm
    BRILLIANCE: For optimum picture brightness (around 2 o’clock position)
    GAIN: For a slight noise level on the display (around 2 o’clock position)
    STC/FTC: Minimum (fully CW)
    TUNING: Best tuning point
    SCANNER: ON (antenna rotating)
    5. Activate the Performance Monitor by operating the switch on the radar display, or by
    turning on the POWER switch of the Switch Box. Wait a while (about one minute) until
    the arc patterns displayed on the radar completely stabilized.

    6. Operating the VRM control, measure the range to the innermost arc displayed on the
    radar screen.

    7. Adjust attenuator ATT01 of the receiving circuit so that the innermost arc is displayed
    within the range 12 ±0.5 nm. Clockwise rotation of ATT01 increases the range;
    counterclockwise rotation decreases it.
    Note: Arcs may disappear or freeze when the attenuator setting is out of the adjustment
    range, and adjustment of the attenuator alone cannot clear the problem. In this case,
    turn the attenuator fully counterclockwise, turn it about 1 1/2 turns and then turn
    the power off and on again. Adjust the attenuator slowly in about 5 degree turns; a
    slight turn yields large change.

    8. Adjust transmitting circuit’s attenuator ATT02 so that the outermost arc (4th from inside)
    is slightly visible. Clockwise rotation of ATT02 increases the intensity of the arcs;
    counterclockwise rotation decreases it.
