To troubleshoot input failures on four channel analyzers

Use this test to isolate the failure when one channel fails in a four channel analyzer.

Step 1. Run the input and quick confidence self tests.

GSet the power switch to on ( l ).

When the power-up tests are completed, press the following keys:[[[[ [ AUTO CAL OFF ][ Input ][ CALIBRATN ]]]]1 ALL CHANNELS ]CH* FIXED RANGEVpkSystem Utility

If the self tests fail but do not lockup the analyzer, note the failure messages and go to Step 2.

If the analyzer locks up on the Quick Confidence self test but not on the input self tests, note the failure messages and go to Step 2 but don’t run the Quick Confidence self test.

If the analyzer locks up on the input self tests, go to Step 2 to determine if exchanging the Input assemblies will allow the self tests to run.

This is most likely to occur when channel 1 and 3 are failing.

If the self tests pass, go to Step 2 but substitute the failure symptom for the self tests.

If the exact failure symptom is not known, use the performance test procedures to isolate the failure symptom.
