Teledyne 300 instruction manual Checking the V/F card, Analog Inputs

If thermistor resistance(s) are within the proper range, check the temperature linearzation circuits on the DC Power Supply Board as described in Section 10.6.4.

If temperature sensor readings appear accurate but control temperatures are not being maintained at their proper value, check the operation of the heaters as follows:

1.Observe the indicator LED's on the Power Supply Module and confirm that the red (right-most) LED is lit, and that the "CEL HTR" LED is lit or cycling (turningoff and on). If these indicators are not correct, it is probably that the Power Supply Module, or the V/F Board is at fault. Check as described in Sections 10.2 and 10.6.3.

2.Unplug the heater element from Power Supply Module and confirm that 115 VAC is present. If 115 VAC is present, the heater element has failed and should be replaced.

WARNING

HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES PRESENT - USE CAUTION!

10.6.3 Checking the V/F card

A schematic and physical diagram of the V/F card are shown on Drawings 514 and 515 in Appendix C. The V/F is a multi-function I/O card which connects to the micro-processor via a STD Bus interface, and acts as the primary I/O interface between the micro-processor and the rest of the analyzer. All functions of the board are performed under control of the micro-processor.

The primary functions of the board can be divided into three areas:

-16 Channels of Multiplexed Analog input to an Analog to Digital converter

-4 independent Digital to Analog converters

-32 Digital I/O Lines configured as 24 outputs and 8 inputs

The following sections describe each of these functional areas.

10.6.3.1 Analog Inputs

16Analog channels (0-5 VDC) are multiplexed under micro-processor control by IC U26 and transmitted via buffer amp U29 to the V/F converter section of the board for A-D conversion.
