5.5.10 Reverse Power Protection
The reverse power protection is tripped when the power of the external signal becomes
too high. A relay opens and interrupts the internal connection to the RF output. This
condition is indicated in the display header by the "OVERLOAD" status message.
Overload
If an "Overload" status message is indicated in the display header, reset the overload
protection by pressing the RF ON/OFF key.
The RF input is activated when the overload protection is reset.
