OPERATION SEQUENCE
ription of component functions
The fo llowing is a desc
during oven operation.
OFF CONDITION
(RD7:“O:U;
Closing the oven door activates all the door interlock
switches: upper latch switch and lower latch switch.
(In this condition,
the monitor switch contacts are
opened.) The stop switch is activated by the latch
head.
When oven is plugged In, 240 volts A.C. IS
supplied to the control unit. But no components in ine
oven will operate. (Figure O-l on page 28)
1. The display will show flashing “88:88”,
2. To set any program or set the clock, you must touch
the STOP/CLEAR pad first.
3. The dispiay WIII clear and ” ” appears in :he d;.-;-

counts up every minute:.
NOTE:When the door is opened by pushrng the door
open button, the contacts of :he reiav RY -1 sre

2. 240 volts A.C. is supplied to the primary winding
of the power transformer. The voltage is converted
to about 3.3 volts AC. output on the filament
winding and approximately 2000 volts A.C. high
voltage on the secondary winding.
3. The 3.3 volts filament winding voltage heats the
magnetron filament and the 2000 volts high voltage
is sent to the voltage-doubling circuit, where it is
doubled to a negative voltage of approximately
4000 volts D.C.
4. The 2450 MHz microwave energy produced in the
magnetron generates a wave length of 12.24 cm.
This energy is channeled through the waveguide
(transport channel) into the oven cavity, where the
food is placed to be cooked.
5. Upon completion of the cooking time, the power
transformer, oven lamp, etc. are turned off, and the
generation of microwave energy is stopped. The
oven will revert to the OFF condition.
6. When the oven door is opened during a cooking
cycle, the monitor switch. upper and lower latch
switches are activated with the followrng resuits.
The crrcuits to the turntable motor, fan motor and
high voltage components are deenergized, the oven
lamp remains on,
and the digital readout displays
the time still remaining in the cook cycle when the
door was opened.

operation of the upper and !ower latch switches and
