Viewing Alarm Details
The Transmitter Status page - see Figure 3.2.84 on page 3.2.99 displays a table that lists the active alarm
details under the following columns:

Device
- identifies the alarms by their originating device (e.g., Controller, Exciter A, Rack, etc.)

Alarm
- identifies the type of alarm (alarm name).

Level
- identifies the severity level of the alarm (see below).
NOTE
: When viewing alarms, cross-reference the alarm name, (which appears in the Alarm column of
the Transmitter Status page) with Table 4.1.1 of the Troubleshooting Manual.
Status Button Colour Indications
 When the
Status
button is red, one or more active alarms are indicating that the transmitter may
be in an ‘off-air’ state.
 When the
Status
button is amber, one or more active alarms are indicating that the transmitter is
still ‘on-air’, but may be at reduced power.
 When the
Status
button is green, no alarms are being reported and the transmitter is operating
normally.
Resetting Alarms
When an alarm is present, use the
Reset
button, at the bottom of any AUI screen, (see Figure 3.2.85 ) to
clear any latching alarms that are holding the transmitter in an “off-air” state. If the offending alarm
has cleared, then the transmitter should resume operation.
