" Is the capacitor setting normally checked by default? This setting was not chosen automatically."
Cap Side is set to SIDET (transceiver side) when the KAT500 is in Bypass mode. At any other time is is set to the value corresponding to the current tuning solution. That tuning solution may have been set manually or it may be the result of a previous auto-tune. If you accidentally changed Cap Side from the previously stored value it could result in a huge mismatch and high SWR. Easily fixed by performing an auto-tune and letting the tuner decide the appropriate setting. Take a look at this reference - https://leleivre.com/rf_lcmatch.html if you can't visualize what Cap Side is doing.
