4. Recover from Errors

You will hear a warning sound when the EIO waveguide temperature goes below 35 ^oC. 

• Check the microwave power supply for errors. If power supply is in the Error state, Press the, transmit/standby button two times around one-second intervals. It will clear the warning and start the microwave transmission.
• The EIO Waveguied temperature should go up. If not, Press the "Run the recovery sequence" button on the microwave VI and follow the recovery sequence

5. Turning OFF the microwave system ( for the HOLD MODE)

• Turn OFF the "Warning sound" button on the microwave VI.
• Press the "Press" button on the microwave power supply to terminate the high-voltage transmission. The mode will be changed to TRANSMIT → STANDBY
