MENU button
Pushing the MENU button for more than one second will invoke MENU mode. The menu number is displayed
on the top line followed by the menu name. Item values can be changed using the Left (Yes) and Right (No)
buttons. The rotary encoder is used to scroll through the items. Changes in status are applied immediately and
persist through power cycles.
[m1] Select band
•
Selects one of the defined bands (band segments) or automatic band decoding (CAT).
[m2] Rota Ena
•
Enables/disables internal rotator controller.
Lights
There are five light on front panel, POWER, ALARM, BUSY, READY and uLINK.
POWER: Indicates power status of the Station Master.
Off: main power is off
•
On: normal operation
•
Slow blinking: sleep mode
•
Fast blinking: Input power (+13.8V, Port A or Port B) is out of range (high or low)
•
ALARM: Indicates an alarm condition. Alarms are those problems that require operator action.
When ALARM LED is lit, the FUNC button will display the reason for the alarm on on the LCD display rather than
the regular FUNC menu. If there are multiple alarms, the left and right buttons will step through the list.
NO TX ANTENNA
•
Attempting to transmit when no valid TX antenna is selected. This can happen when there is no TX split
(i.e. the TX antenna selection follows the RX antenna selection) and a RX-only antenna is selected. The
problem can be resolved by selecting a valid transmit antenna.
NO BAND DATA
•
The alarm LED will flash if there is a loss of internally
decoded band data, data from Router, or data from a
microHAM keyer. The alarm LED will be permanently
on if band data is not available at start-up. Transmitting
is not restricted but changing antennas is not allowed.
Band can be selected manually through the menu until
the problem is fixed.
ROTATOR FAULT
•
Local rotator sensor timeout; the most likely cause is a defective sensor or broken connection. Motor
power is disabled but transmitting is not inhibited. The rotator controller can be disabled until problem is
fixed.
OUT OF BANDS
•
The Operating frequency is outside any defined band.
Transmitting is not allowed but antenna selections can
be changed.
