Comparisons
The microprocessor controller monitors voltages that correspond to HVPS (High Voltage Power
Supply) voltage and current parameters as well as RF power (drive, output, and reflected)
parameters. When a parameter falls outside of a predefined window (some windows may be
active only during certain HPA states or modes), a fault is generated and one of the following
messages will appear:
Helix Over Voltage
H E L I X O V E R V F A U L T
Helix Under Voltage
