Turning on the LPOD

Never turn the unit ON without proper waveguide termination on the J2 "RF
OUTPUT" port. Individuals can be exposed to dangerously high electromagnetic
levels.
WARNING
The LPOD does not contain a 'Power On/Off' switch. The SSPA is powered ON by connecting the
J3 AC Power connector to the appropriate prime power source. The Mute or Transmit status of the
SSPA will automatically come up in the last stored state (factory default = Transmit on, not muted).
