If wiring is correct, proceed as follows:

1. If a termination resistor is fitted, disconnect this from

 

 

the end of the daisy chain.

 

 

2. With an ac voltmeter, check the ac voltage between

 

 

pins 1and 5, and pins 2 and 5, on PL1.

 

 

3. An ac voltage is less than 1V indicates a fault on the

 

 

signal transmission lines. Check back to the previous

 

 

remote display in the daisy chain or to the 2468

 

 

electronics unit, as appropriate. If the correct ac

 

 

voltages are present at this location then a line break

 

 

is indicated.

 

 

4. If the ac voltages are still low then either the lines are

 

 

short-circuited or there is a board fault. Disconnect the

 

 

remote displays upstream and re-check the ac

 

 

voltages. If there is a voltage of less than 1Vac at the

 

 

2468 electronics unit (with PL3 removed) then the

 

 

display board is faulty. Remove this board and fit a

 

 

serviceable item.
