    MEP-831a Troubleshooting

    I'll put this thing back under a load and see if I can get it to adjust down. This still leaves my initial concern about the set starting in a faulted mode, but maybe this will resolve once it's in adjustment. Will order another SLC through the system and see if that changes things, and of...
