4.9 Basic
Operation
4.9.1 ON/OFF
Switch
In the ‘ON’ position, AC power is supplied to the power amplifier.
4.9.2
AC Power Indicator Lamp
Illumination of the green AC power indicator lamp indicates proper
distribution of AC power throughout the power amplifier.
4.9.3
Fault Indicator Lamp
Illumination of the red FAULT lamp indicates that the internal temperature
exceeded 80º C, which automatically disables the DC bias voltage to the
main amplifier modules. In addition, a message indicating high
temperature will appear on the digital display on the front panel. The DC
bias voltage will automatically be restored once the temperature is less
than 75º C.
4.10 Turn Off
Turn off the RF power amplifier by first lowering or removing the RF Input drive level
and then placing the ON/OFF switch in the ‘OFF’ position.
WARNING
In the event of ANY power failure; whenever possible and practical, it
is advisable to reset the ON/OFF switch on the front panel to the “OFF”
position
before y
ou reconnect AC power to the power amplifier. This
is to prevent any possible electrical damage to the amplifier, due to
the initial power surge, once power is restored.
