Alerts

 

This  amplifier has front  panel  alert  codes  using  the  SWR,  PA, TX, warning  LED’s  and 
bandswitch band indicators. When a fault code appears, the amplifier is disabled. When 
an operating problem is corrected, operation is restored and alerts canceled by moving 
the front panel Standby/Operate switch to Standby.  

The following table applies to faults:
