• The Temperature alarm monitors the internal temperature of the unit based on
specific points inside the radio chassis. It is normal for the internal temperature to be
above the ambient temperature, so the temperature reading may be higher than the
highest specified ambient temperature. When the internal electronics reach a point
that is higher than the normal temperature rise at the highest ambient temperature, the
temperature alarm turns yellow. Power down the radio as soon as possible, and
investigate the cause of the temperature rise before the radio is put back into service.
In almost all cases, a temperature alarm is due to an external cause, unless the fans in
the unit are also in alarm, in which case, the fans are the likely cause.
