1. Click the warning symbol (or select Menu -> Alarms) to go to the
Alarms
page (see Figure 3.1.3 ).
View the list of active faults. Alarms are listed by their name (
Alarm
column), and then by severity
(
Alarm Detail
column) [single orange ! indicates low severity (RF output not affected); single red !
indicates medium severity (RF output is reduced); two red ! indicates high severity (RF output is
inhibited)].
2. Attempt to clear any latching alarms by pressing the
Reset Latched Alarms
button on the bottom
banner of the page. If the alarm persists, it will not be cleared from the display.
3. Locate the alarm name in Table 3.1.1 on page 3.1.9 to determine the cause of the alarm and
perform any recommended procedures in the
Description and Troubleshooting Action
column.
This may also lead to replacing a suspect PWB, power supply or fan, as detailed in “Replacement
Procedures” on page 3.1.17 .
