2.9 Fault Indicator / LED
Description of Operation
Norsat Ka 25W, 40W and 50W BUC and SSPA devices are equipped with a general-purpose Status LED
signal. This signal is intended to give a visual aid of the status of the device.
Modes of Operation
The Status LED in the Front Panel of the devices will show three different statuses: STARTING, FAULT,
and NO FAULTS.
Starting with No Faults Status
The Status LED will flash once for a lapse of approximately one second every time the power of the device
in recycled to OFF and set back to ON. If no fault is detected in the device at the Power Up, the LED will
go to OFF afterwards settling in that state.
Fault and No Faults
In the event of a PLL Fault or an Over Temperature Fault, the Status LED will turn ON indefinitely either
the MUTE STATE of the device is UNMUTED or MUTED due Hardware or Software. If the cause of the
fault disappears the Status LED will turn OFF until any of the Faults shows again independently of the
MUTE STATE.
