The azimuth and elevation axis drive output are protected by a circuit breaker accessible via the
controller’s backpanel. When the drive breaker is open, the breaker’s button will protrude from
the mounting bezel. The controller AC input is protected by a user replaceable fuses (1/4” x 1
¼”) housed in a fuse drawer built into the controller’s IEC type, power entry module. Replace
with 6 amp AGC (fast-blow) fuses. RCI part # F-6A-FB-C, Bussman part # ABC-6, Little Fuse
part # 314006.
