FUNCTIONS DESCRIPTION:  

 

SWR LED:

    

  

Flashing

: indicates it is limiting the output RF power in order to reduce the reflected one. 

ON 

Constantly

:  indicates reflected power is more than 12% of the device’s rated power. 

 

PWR LED:

    

  

Flashing

: indicates the device is limiting the output power to maintain the nominal value. 

ON 

Constantly

:  indicates the output power value is higher than the nominal one.  

TEMP LED:

  

  

ON Constantly

: indicates the internal temperature of the device or of the pallets is higher than the  

device’s parameters. 

 

ENABLE LED

:  

 

  

ON Constantly

: indicates the device has removed the pallet enabling voltage.  

ON AIR LED

:  

 

  

Flashing

: indicates the device is in transmission but does not detect the output power. 

ON 

Constantly

: indicates the device is detecting the output power.  

STAND BY LED

:                    

ON

:  indicates the device is in Stand‐By. 

 

STOP BUTTON:

     

By  pressing  the  button,  the  device  will  go  in  stand‐by  mode  and  the  pallet  will 

remove  auxiliary  output 

power from the device.  

START BUTTON:

    

By pressing the button, the device will set the pallet in transmission mode and auxiliary output power will 
be supplied.
