INTRODUCTION This manual details the use of the AGD933 Enforcement Radar Certification Equipment. Used with AGD radars, the AGD933 allows the user to determine the performance of relevant radars during their calibration period against known parameters by non-invasive methods (calibration seals do not need to be removed). The immediate application of the AGD933 equipment is for AGD340 and AGD330 radars. The AGD933 incorporates a laboratory version of the AGD932 target simulator hardware which is controlled via a separate PC and bespoke AGD software. 1.1 Document Scope This document is a statement of the product design and is generated in response to the Marketing Requirement Specification.
