Receiver Failure Error Messages
The error messages which indicate receiver group problems may be caused by the instrument
itself or by external devices or connections. Remember that RF OUT must be connected to
input R to maintain phase lock (unless internal cables are moved). The following three error
messages share the same description.
AUTION: OVERLOAD ON INPUT A, POWER REDU ED
AUTION: OVERLOAD ON INPUT B, POWER REDU ED
AUTION: OVERLOAD ON INPUT R, POWER REDU ED
If any of the above error messages appear, you have exceeded approximately +3 dBm at
one of the input ports. The RF output power is automatically turned o. The annotation
P appears in the left margin of the display to indicate that the power trip function has
been activated. To reset the analyzer's power and regain control of the power level, do the
following:
1. Remove any devices under test which may have contributed excess power to the input.
2. Connect the equipment as shown in Figure 8-1.
