08 Major The system is reporting that it has not been calibrated. Factory
calibration is required for proper radio operation.
09 -- Not used.
10 Major The internal microcontroller was unable to properly program the
system to the appropriate EEPROM defaults. A hardware
problem may exist.
11–15 -- Not used.
16 Minor Not used.
17 Minor A data parity fault has been detected on the DATA INTERFACE
connector. This usually indicates a parity setting mismatch
between the radio and the RTU.
18 Minor A data framing error has been detected on the DATA
INTERFACE connector. This may indicate a baud rate mismatch
between the radio and the RTU.
20 Minor Configuration error. An invalid parameter configuration exists.
This may be caused by an invalid modem choice.
19–24 -- Not used.
25 Minor The 5.6 volt power regulator is out-of-tolerance. If the error is
excessive, operation may fail.
26 Minor The DC input voltage is out-of-tolerance. If the voltage is too far
out of tolerance, operation may fail.
27, 28 -- Not used
31 Minor The transceiver’s internal temperature is approaching an
out-of-tolerance condition. If the temperature drifts outside of the
recommended operating range, system operation may fail.
