1.
POWER ON
Main switch of the equipment is on the power supply (ME3000-S).
2. ON LED
The LED indicator glows when the Linear is switched on. Doesn't lit in case the
15V DC – supply for the protection circuits and antenna switch - is missing.
3. OVR LED
The blinking LED indicates the active stage of the protection circuit. The
protection might be active du to overdrive, IG1 higher as specified, SWR > 3,
or any other case. (See specifications)
If the protection is active, the TCVR power by-pass the PA. To reset the
protection release the STBY button, than push it again. The reason of the
trouble has to be cleared first.
4.
AIR LED
The indicator glows while transmitting and the T/R relay is switched on.
Without driving power the PLATE meter indicates the base current of the PA.
