26. Solutions to Common Problems
 Problem: Fault LED on or flashing.
 Solutions:
 1) Make sure the Enable connector is in place.
 2) Is the airflow blocked? Overheating?
 Problem: Output voltage is below setpoint.
 Solutions:
 1) Make sure you are operating within the SOA? Remember to account for the cable capacitance
in your load calculation.
