[Elecraft] W2 Wattmeter alarm function doesn't activate on hogh SWR

[Vic Rosenthal K2VCO]

Hello folks,

I sent this to Support, but they are probably resting up until Monday, 
so I thought I would ask here. Has anyone had this problem with the W2 
wattmeter?

I just assembled my unit. It seems to work correctly except that I can't 
enable the alarm function.

1. When I turn the W2 on, I hear the relay click, and it does interrupt 
the ptt at this point.

2. The W2 utility program (USB, running on XP) finds and communicates 
with the W2. When I click on the ALARM button, the label changes from 
OFF to ON.

3. But when I test it by transmitting into a 'wrong' antenna (SWR=13:1) 
it does not flash LEDs or activate the relay.

4. Firmware is 1.00 and utility program is also 1.00.

Has anyone had a similar problem?
