  • Page 102: Power-Up Error Codes

    Troubleshooting: Power-Up Error Codes Power-Up Error Codes When the radio is turned on (power-up), the radio performs self-tests to determine if its basic electronics and software are in working order. When you turn the radio on normally, the radio performs a limited self-test. This allows the radio to achieve full power within two seconds. To allow the radio to perform a full self-test (which extends the time required to achieve full power), press and hold the top side button while turning the radio on.
