1KW PA
All the front panel indicators flash
together a few times as the unit
performs its power-up initialization
sequence, and then turn off
If the FAULT indicator lights, a fault has been
detected in the 1KW amplifier (you may read the
problem by means of its from panel LCD). Service
the 1KW amplifier.
However, you can still transmit and receive using
the RM125/RM125R by selecting NONE on the
PROG>RAD>OPTS>ACC menu.
If the BYPASS indicator lights while in the transmit
mode, make sure to select AMP on the
RM125/RM125R PROG>RAD>OPTS>ACC menu.
The 1KW amplifier tunes to the
RM125/RM125R operating
frequency. After successful tuning, its
front panel LCD displays the selected
frequency
Check for proper connection of the RF and control
cables between the RM125/RM125R (or other
exciter unit you are using), and the 1KW amplifier.
If tuning fails even after turning the equipment off
and on again in the proper turn-on sequence
described above, you are still able to transmit and
receive using the RM125/RM125R by permanently
bypassing the 1KW amplifier. For the
RM125/RM125R, you bypass the 1KW amplifier by
selecting NONE on the PROG>RAD>OPTS>ACC
menu

The display turns on and shows SELF
TEST for a few seconds.
If the display is too dim, adjust its brightness using
MENU > MORE > DIM > LEVEL. However, this
change is temporary: the dimming level returns to
the default setting (1) after 10 seconds. Each key
pressing will extend the time-out interval by 10
seconds. If automatic dimming is enabled (DIM is
YES), the display may turn off after a few seconds of
inactivity. To cancel this feature, use MENU > MORE
> PROG > RAD > PRMT > MORE > MORE > DIM to
select NO for DIM.
If the self-test procedure is
successfully completed, the radio
automatically resumes operation in
the last used mode (CHAN, FREQ,
ALE, or SCAN).
If a problem is detected during self-test, the display
shows ERR and a code number, followed by a
concise description of the error (if the description
does not fit in one row, its parts alternate in the
display). If the detected problem does not prevent
using the radio, press EXIT to cancel the display
and continue
