3. Verify that the red light is not flashing.
The red light flashes for about 15 seconds when a base 
station powers up. This is normal. If the red light continues 
to flash, one of the problems may have occurred:
The ICS or Station Module is not ON.
The base station is not connected to the ICS or Station 
Module.
The wiring to the base station is not correct.
The TCM wiring length between the base station and 
the ICS or Station Module exceeds 1200 m.
There is a faulty ICS, Station Module, or RPI.
The two-way DC loop resistance of the power pairs 
between the Remote Power Interconnect (RPI) and the 
base station exceeds 75 ohms. Measure the loop 
resistance with an ohmmeter. If the resistance exceeds 
75 ohms, install a second power pair, or power the base 
station with a plug-top power supply.
The base station is faulty.
4. Verify that the power cord of the RPI is properly connected 
to a working AC outlet. If the base station is powered 
locally, verify that the power supply is properly connected 
to a working AC outlet and that the power supply cable is 
properly connected to the base station power connector
5. If an external antenna is installed, verify that the external 
antenna coaxial cable is properly connected to the BNC 
connector of the base station and that the corresponding 
radio is programmed to have an external antenna (see 
Installing external antenna and lightning surge arrestor 
procedures for the United States of America
 on page 37)
.
Note:  Ensure there are not any bridge taps on the TCM.
