Power Supply Not Phase-Locked

Error 106 Power Supply not Locked

Description: The switching power supply is not phase locked to the 400 kHz reference signal from the A6 Pulse Generator PCB. Error 106 may be displayed alone or it may be accompanied by error 148 (Pulse 40 MHz reference circuitry failed).

Power Supply not Locked and Error 148 is not Displayed

Step 1. Using an oscilloscope, verify the presence of a 400 kHz TTL square wave at TP2 on the A6 PCB (P/N D40606-3) or TP12 on the A6 PCB (P/N D40626-3).

qIf present, replace the A18 Power Supply PCB. If not present, replace the A6 PCB.

Power Supply not Locked and Error 148 is Displayed

Step 1. Troubleshoot the cause of error 148 (Table 5-27, page 5-52).

In most cases, this will also be the cause of error 106.
