TROUBLESHOOTING 

 

 
 

PROBLEM 

SOLUTION 

ON-SITE-REMEDY 

1)  Power Indicator is off 

a)  Check of the unit is 

plugged into a 120VAC 
source. 

b)  Check if the internal 

circuit breaker on/off 
switch is depressed 

Plug in the unit to 120VAC 
or depress internal circuit 
breaker. 

2)  Power indication on but 
status light is not blinking 

Check connection to the 
microprocessor board 

Microprocessor board fault.  
Pull out for repair 

3)  a)  Com port does not 
light up when unit is 
programmed 

Check serial cable 
connections 

 

4)  Unit does not respond 
when programmed 

Check serial cable 
connections 

 

5)  Unit does not provide 
designed gain or unit does 
not have gain at all or 
intermittent operation 

a)  Check RF connection 

between modules 

b)  Check Talk In/Talk Out 

RF connections
