Error 135 Modulator or Driver Failed

Description: Error 135 indicates a failure of the modulator in the switched filter assembly or the modulator driver circuitry on the A9 PIN Control PCB.

Step 1. Replace the A9 PCB and run self-test.

If error 135 is not displayed, the problem is cleared.

If error 135 is still displayed, go to step 2.

Step 2. Replace the switched filter assembly and run self-test again.

qIf error 135 is not displayed, the problem is cleared.

If error 135 is still displayed, contact your local ANRITSU service center for assistance.
