2 A
TX VSWR The VSWR is beyond limits fault indicates an antenna problem.
Check all antenna connections at the antenna, feed line, and at the repeater. If
necessary, replace the antenna, and/or the feed line.
Repeater not receiving
Verify the repeater has supplied AC power.
Ensure that the RX DSP card is fully seated, with no bent pins.
Ensure that the Channel Controller card is fully seated, with no bent pins.
Reboot the Channel Controller card by momentarily pressing the Reset button on the
card. If this does not correct the problem, continue to the next item.
Verify that the proper options are installed in case of P25 or VoIP
Check the receive and transmit frequencies
Make sure the RF deck is tightly secured.
Verify NAC
Check the LO and RF cable connection on the receive board
Perform a Receiver Test - Connect an RF test signal to the RF receive port. This
signal should be set to the repeater’s receive frequency and modulated with a standard
P25 1011Hz Tone.
1 From the diagnostics application, select
2
RX > RX Test > BER > Start
2
Verify that receive sensitivity is within specified limits.
2
Stop the test.
2
If the BER test fails, then replace the RF deck.
2
If the display indicates “NO RSP”, then replace the receive DSP card.
If the red EIC LED remains on, select the
2
Faults menu item to view detected
faults.
If the
RX Synth Lock - Receiver synthesizer is out of lock fault is detected,
