The symptom described below happens when the indicator potentiometer
in the rotor opens or when the wires from the control box to the 
rotor open.  This is in my opinion, a serious design flaw in this
rotor.  I do not know of a work around.

The schematic and manual are available from TIC - call Todd at
800-TIC-RING.
