The transceiver "power on" is activated by connecting a load to this "power on" lead. The text does not say what they mean by a load, and it does not say just to ground it. I'll look at my Omni VI manual and see what it connects to pin 3.

I am not getting this. I does not help that my Omni VI manual does not have pin numbers on the DC Power Input Board schematic. I don't see how the power switch on the Omni VI can turn the 9420 on and off. It looks like just plugging in Omni VI into the 9420 would turn it on, regardless of the power switch postion. I have never tried using the 9420 to power the Omni. Never made up a cable to do it. Still I would like to understand this circuit, in case I ever want to use it that way. Anybody out there who can clarify this?
