host is consistent with form "Band voltage parameter" described in paragraphs voltage,you can use this mode of operation
"XXm MANUAL" means that the LPF working state is in manual
operation.
"XXm" means that the current band.( when the band output voltage of
host is NOT consistent with form “Band boltage parameter” described in
paragraphs voltage, you can use this mode of operation, you can
manually set the working band of the machine)
l The form “Band voltage parameter”, please refer to page 8.
J: ATU working status display, "BYPS means no access to ATU", "INUSE"
means that the access to ATU(when the SWR is too large, it will
automatically be tuned.)
