Alarm – High 
Input Power 
Detected at 
Amplifier Input 
<0.8V 
Alarm – RF input power exceeds 
maximum power threshold level. To reset 
the alarm, it is necessary to reduce RF 
drive signal level and reapply RF input 
power (The alarm will remain illuminated 
after RF input power is removed)

Alarm – Low fan speed or locked rotor 
detected. May require fan maintenance or 
replacement if defective.

Alarm - High 
VSWR Detected 
at Amplifier 
Output 
<0.8V 
Alarm – > 3:1 VSWR at the amplifier 
output was detected. Amplifier output is 
shutdown. To reset the alarm, it is 
necessary to remove the high VSWR from 
the amplifier output and reapply RF input 
power (the alarm LED will remain 
illuminated after RF input power is 
removed)
