Local Operation
Xicom Technology digital outdoor units have a built-in
microprocessor for Monitor and Control using Xicom Standard
Protocol. Refer to the chapter titled Amplifier Communication
and Protocol for detailed information.
There are three switches on the front panel of the amplifier that
allow you some local control of the unit. These switches are:
• Primary Power—used to turn AC input power ON or OFF.
• High Voltage—used to turn the High Voltage Power Supply ON and
OFF or to Reset the High Voltage Power Supply.
• Local, Remote Override—used to switch the amplifier from Local
Mode (Manual) to Remote Mode (Microprocessor Control).
There is also a LED indicator on the amplifier front panel. This
indicator shows RED for a fault, GREEN when High Voltage is
ON, AMBER when the unit is in standby, and blinking AMBER
when in filament time delay.
Note
The Local/Remote switch must be in Local in order to
locally control the high voltage or to reset any faults.
To operate from a remote position refer to the chapter titled
Operation.
Operating Procedure
