Table 6-2 Master Controller Related Faults
FAULT COMMENT ACTION
MSTR_REF +5V reference fault. Indicates +5V
reference is < 4.6V
Mute XMTR (IPA & Exciter, Power supplies)
REF_WARNING Indicates +5V Reference is out of
tolerance at the Master Controller Board
with error of more than 0.25V but < 0.4V
Reports fault in Log without shutting down
the PAs.
RFL_PWR Reflected power has exceeded VSWR
overload threshold of 210W(110W) which
is equivalent to a 1.42:1 VSWR
Will follow the 3 Strike Routine (described in
Section 6) Mute XMTR, then slowly ramp up
to full power or the VSWR foldback point,
whichever comes first. Foldback is set at
1.30:1 from the factory.
INTERLOCK External Interlock fault Turn off XMTR, light INTERLOCK LED
FAILSAFE Failsafe fault, AC on and power supply in
standby mode
Mute XMTR, blink INTERLOCK LED
POWER_FAIL AC power supply failed, +20V power
supply on Life Support Board is less than
12V.
Mute XMTR & save fault time. Transmitter
will automatically return to operation when
power returns.
LOW_AIR Low air flow fault at 25% (88 cf/m) Low-fan TO high-fan, OR high-fan TO AC off
UPS Logic LOW detected at Remote UPS input XMTR is switched to the UPS Power setting
CPLR_NC Forward power Directional coupler cable
is not connected
Mute XMTR. Restart required to restore
power
IPA_MUTE An IPA has current still present with Vg < -
15V
Mute XMTR (RF Sources and PAs)
IPA_AB1_LOW IPA_AB1 power is < 10% of calibrated
output with Vg = 0V
Mute, then switch to other IPAs
IPA_AB1_OC IPA_AB1 current has exceeded the 14.0A
threshold
Mute, then switch to other IPAs
IPA_AB1_OT IPA_AB1 temperature has exceeded
100
o
C
Mute, then switch to other IPAs
IPA_AB1_OUT IPA_AB1 is not inserted completely into
the connector
Switch to IPA_AB2 if it is not faulted
IPA_AB2_LOW IPA_AB2 power is < 10% of calibrated
output with Vg = 0V
Mute, then switch to other IPAs
IPA_AB2_OC IPA_AB2 current has exceeded the 14.0A
threshold
Mute, then switch to other IPAs
IPA_AB2_OT IPA_AB2 temperature has exceeded
100
o
C
Mute, then switch to other IPAs
IPA_AB2_OUT IPA_AB2 is not inserted completely into
the connector
Switch to IPA_AB1 if it is not faulted
