To troubleshoot intermittent failures

 

To troubleshoot intermittent failures

Use this test to isolate intermittent failures to the assembly.

Determine if your intermittent failure is caused by one of the following common causes.

Common Reasons

Troubleshooting Procedure

 

 

 

 

Loose screws

Check that the screws in the analyzer are tight and that the cables are

and cables

firmly in their sockets. This is especially important since grounding for

 

the analyzer depends on the cables and screws.

 

 

Motherboard

Remove each assembly connected to the Motherboard and check the

connectors

connectors for loose or bent pins.

 

 

Power supply

Check for correct power-supply voltages. See ‘’To perform initial

voltages

verification’’ on page 4-5.

 

 

Out-of-adjustment

Do the adjustments for the analyzer in chapter 5.

 

 

Low level noise

Do ‘’To troubleshoot distortion failures’’ on page 4-56.

 

 

Air flow

Cooling air enters from the right side and exhausts through the left side

restricted

and rear panel. Check that the air flow was not restricted in these areas

 

when the failure occurred.

 

 

External voltage

Verify that the line voltage is within the electrical specification for the

 

analyzer. See chapter 2.

Connect the rear panel SOURCE output to the rear panel TACH input using a BNC cable. Remove all cables from the front panel input connectors.

The ICP self test outputs approximately 30 Vdc on the input connectors. Before starting the self tests, disconnect all devices connected to the input connectors. Devices left connected during the ICP self test may be damaged.

Set the power switch to on ( l ).
