Under 20kHz, no modulation occurs. After a preset time of about 5 minutes (not editable), a NO AUDIO condition is indicated in the main screen, but power is not inhibited.
  • Page 19 TEX500-LCD & TEX1000LIGHT Superior Boadcast SBFM1000SS Transmitter Modifies Power Good threshold for forward power. The Power Good rate is a percent of equipment rated power (500W for TEX500-LCD and 1000 W for TEX1000LIGHT), not of forward output power. This means that this threshold set at 50% will give 250 W and 500 W, respectively, regardless of set power level.
