SYMPTOM POTENTIAL 

CAUSE  CORRECTIVE 

ACTION 

No signal 
outputs 
 
 
 
 
 
 

1.  There is no input 

reference.  

2.  The Reference Select 

switch is selecting 
Reference B and no 
source is connected to 
the Reference B input. 

1.  Connect the reference 

input. 

2.  Select an internal source. 
 
 
 
 

Fault light is 
illuminated 

1.  The input signal level is 

too low. 

2.  There is a failed output 

driver.  

3.  There is an excessive 

load on one or more 
outputs. 

 
 
4.  The output level is 

adjusted too low. 

1.  Increase the input signal 

level. 

2.  Return unit to factory for 

repair. 

3. Disconnect the output 

loads one by one until the 
overloaded output is 
isolated.  Outputs should 
not have loads < 50 ohm. 

4.  Isolate the low output level 

and adjust for a level > 10 
dBm.
