IMPORTANT NOTE: The CDM-570L uses a system of Fault Prioritization. In each
category of fault, only the highest priority fault is displayed. For instance, if the
demodulator is unlocked, it is irrelevant if there are other receive faults present. If the
IMPORTANT
demodulator then locks, but there is a fault of a lower priority present, this will then be
displayed. This also holds true for the faults reported via the remote control. This system
cuts down significantly on unwanted and irrelevant fault reporting. A comprehensive list
of faults is shown at the end of this section.
