Power Meter Troubleshooting

Since the power meter and power sensor can only work together, the first step
is to determine which is malfunctioning. Connect the power sensor to the
meter and perform the functional test on page 10. If the power meter is mal-
functioning, refer to the troubleshooting table below. If the power sensor is
malfunctioning, return it for service.

This manual cannot list all malfunctions that may occur, or corrective actions.
If a malfunction is not listed or is not corrected by the listed corrective actions,
contact a qualified service center.

Note:

For all power sensor tests, following the test procedure will

check the sensor not covered by the safety cover. To test the other sensor
slide the safety cover over, then proceed as normal.

WARNING

To avoid personal injury, disconnect the power cord from the AC line before

performing any maintenance, including fuse replacement.

WARNING

Never attempt to connect or disconnect RF equipment from the transmission line
while RF power is being applied. Leaking RF energy is a potential health hazard.

CAUTION

The Bird 4421 contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not remove its cover.

CAUTION

Due to the complexity of the Bird Power Sensor, field repairs beyond general

maintenance should not be attempted. Removal or disturbance of the power

sensor cover can result in cancellation of lifetime warranty.
