may need to be replaced. Contact ADC Technical Assistance for further help (see

•

—Red indicates an internal VSWR fault state of the LPA. Check the Remote’s antenna connection. If the connection is good and a subsequent LPA reset does not clear the alarm, inspect the blue cable going from the corresponding Remote Antenna port to the Duplexer—verify that the connection is tight. If this doesn't clear the fault, the Duplexer may need to be replaced. Notify ADC Technical Support (see “Contacting ADC” on page 335).

•

—Red indicates that the voltage level inside the LPA is outside its acceptable range. If the LPA Reset does not clear this alarm, contact ADC Technical Assistance for further help as the RF Module that contains the LPA or the Power supply within the SeRF Module may need to be replaced (see

“Contacting ADC” on page 335).

•

—Red indicates that the LPA is not sure of the feedback loop, so it has placed itself into a safe state. You can attempt to recover the LPA by reducing forward gain by 10dB on both DART cards, resetting the LPA, then restoring GAIN. If the reset does not work, contact ADC Technical Support (see “Contacting ADC”

on page 335).

•

—Red indicates that the power level inside the LPA is high enough to damage the LPA. Reduce the Remote Forward Gain (see “Link the Host

and Remote DARTs.” on page 159), then reset the LPA.

•

—Red indicates that the internal gain of the LPA does not meet specifications. In addition to an LPA Reset, try putting the LPA into standby and then back to enable to see if this clears this fault. If neither troubleshooting step clears this alarm, the corresponding RF Module may need to be replaced. contact ADC Technical Assistance for further help (see “Contacting ADC” on page 335).
