POWER LED……………………………… Indicates power is on (2-3sec delay)
12.
WAIT LED…………………………...………..PTT operation is disabled while lit
13.
TRIP LED………….…..Shows amplifier is disabled due to excessive grid current
14.
ON-AIR LED………………………………..……….Shows the amplifier is on-air
Notes on LED indicators:
a)
The WAIT LED comes on when the amplifier is switched on and indicates that
the timer is in operation. The amplifier cannot be operated at this time. After
approx. 2.5 minutes the light will go out .
b)
The TRIP LED comes on when the grid current has exceeded 400mA, due either
to excessive drive being applied or to mis-tuning. In either case, the amplifier
ceases to operate until the cause has been rectified and the amplifier re-set. To
reset the amplifier, make sure the Tune and Load controls are in the correct
positions and the drive turned down a little. Now press the STBY/TX switch to
STBY and immediately back to TX, the Trip LED should now have gone out and
the amplifier is able to be keyed once more.
