Hi

A brand new Flex 3000 just setup. No Fwd Pwr reading on TX.

PSDR showing Tune signal in window and relay clicks to TX mode, power supply shows increased draw, fans kick in on Flex. ATU in PSDR disabled by me.
Pwr meter on antenna shows no power and cannot tune antenna on external ATU because of zero power.

Any ideas ?

Kind regards

Tried everything. Finally rolled back the firmware to 1.2.5.6 and PSDR 1.18.6 and it's working.
However the PSDR still shows 0 watts Fwd Pwr but my external power meter shows roughly the correct power reading and I can tune the antenna
using the external ATU, the internal PSDR ATU still not working

Ok TX failed again after machine reboot. Reinstalled Win XP and only PSDR 1.18.6
Reset database and flashed firmware with 1.2.5.6 still no TX

What do I do now ?

Hi, I had the same thing happen to me, if you see some of my post here. I noticed that one of the black wires on the power plug had unpluged from the connector. I pushed it back in and everything worked after that incuding proper trasnmit. I am still not sure if that is what it was as there are other things I had done also,,but it may be that it needs all wires connected properly to work.
