NOTE: The RF LEVEL LED may light (flash) and the front panel display "Warning...!!! Input RF
is too low" when a small number of channels (small occupied bandwidth) is input even though
the RF signal is at the desired level. The RF circuitry sense a wide bandwidth and averages the
signal level; when only a small portion of the bandwidth is occupied at proper levels and the
remainder is unoccupied, the sensor circuitry reports a low level.
• Adjust the source to supply the level noted in the table from chapter 5.
