I was reading where the MTR2000 does a sort of self test when first powered on, which includes both fans momentarily powering on for a few seconds. The fan on the power supply side does power up for a few seconds, but the PA side does not, but after about 60 seconds or so,, it does finally power up for the few seconds. Is that normal?
Also, under moderate use, the PA heat sink gets very hot before the fan actually powers on. It's hot enough that it would burn your hand if you left it on the surface for 30 seconds or so. The fan itself seems to be just fine though and does cool the repeater down. Just seems like it should kick on sooner and run longer
I'm pretty new to this UHF MTR2000 software and was wondering if there is a setting to have the fan come on sooner? With as hot as this thing gets, it seems like it's not coming on soon enough and when it does come on, it seems to shut down too soon
I did have a flashing red light the other day, and the PA was very hot. I shut it down and it seemed fine when I powered it back up a few hours later, with no red light
