Diagnostic LED Indicators
The switch can be easily monitored through panel indicators to assist in
identifying problems.
If the power indicator does turn on when the power cord is plugged in, you may
have a problem with power outlet or power cord. However, if the switch powers off
after running for a while check for loose power connections, power losses or
surges at power outlet. If you still cannot resolve the problem, contact your local
dealer for assistance.
