Problem with DRS4D

Hello,

I have a 2019 DRS4D radar connected to a TZT2 via a PSU-17. It was working fine 3 weeks ago when last used. Now it doesn't see anything when put to use again. The very first scan shows targets as expected, then it quickly attenuates to nothing. Randomly, but not often, it shows all targets like normal, but if I change scale or wait a few scans, it attenuates and shows nothing again. Changing gain has no effect. If left on for a period of time, I get an error message that the radar has no power and is disconnected. Do you have any suggestions?
 
Please run the RADAR in transmit on th 24NM range and select HOME- SETTINGS - RADAR - RADAR MONITORING attach a picture of the monitor results.
 
Wow that was quick! Thank you. Attached is a pic of what you asked for.

However, I just did a factory reset. The radar came back blank with no change from before, but after 2min it started working and showing targets as expected. I am now letting it run to see if the problem returns. I will also be turning it on/off a few times to see if it continues to work.

I'm concerned about it losing its power and connection. I wouldn't think a factory reset would affect that type of thing.

BTW, with the exception of the ARPA echo parameters, these are the same values the monitoring page was showing when it wasn't working.
