Other main functionalities are: 
•  continuous transmitter’s operations (100% duty cycle). 
•  Output power selectable between two values (Phi and Plo), each of 
which can be SW set to a nominal value between 10 and 110 Watts.  
•  final stage protected against excessive mismatching output power. In 
the case that VSWR remains above a set threshold (eg ReturnLoss = 
5dB) for more than a fixed time, the module is able to send an alert 
and the output power will not exceed a safety value (eg ≤ 10watt).  
•  temperature threshold alarm: if the temperature remains above a set 
value for more than a fixed time, the module is able to send an alert 
and will ensure that the RF output power will not exceed a predetermined safe value. 
The front panel is provided with bi-color leds to help in troubleshooting the system. The table below 
describes the meaning of the leds:
