CDM-570A/570AL Satellite Modem with Optional Packet Processor
In general, the alarm relay state reflects the state of
the Front Panel LEDs. For example, if the Unit
Status LED is red, the Unit Alarm relay is active.
This does not apply to the Transmit Traffic relay,
which activates only if a Tx Traffic Fault exists – it
does not reflect the state of the Tx carrier.
