To Connect Output Power and Satisfy Interlock
1. Remove the output power connector cover from the rear of the generator.
2. Slide the output power cable through the output power connector cover, and
connect the output power cable connector to the output power connector on the
unit.
Make sure to thread the connection carefully and that the connector is fully
mated.
3. Install the output power connector cover over the unit connectors.
4. Connect the output power cable to the load.
The output power cable should be an RG-393 cable terminated with an HN
connector. Be sure to use as short a cable length as possible.
When the output power connector is secure, interlock is engaged and RF output can
be enabled. If the cable connector interlock is not satisfied, the unit cannot turn on RF
output.
