5.5.8 Integrated Reference and Measuring Signals
You can observe the reference and measuring signal at the first stage of integration by connecting the scope probe to TP6 (reference signal) and TP7 (measuring signal) at the detector unit. A dual trace scope is advantageous but not required for this observation.
The test points’ significance is that they reveal proper switch action. The display shows a sawtooth pattern that is a
If one is missing, the switch is not switching. If the sawtooth shows a broken pattern, the switching action is feeble or irregular. Usually, you can fix the faulty condition of the switch by slightly changing the switch position.
The action of a bar magnet and a rotating chopper disc activate themagnetic mercury reed switch. An aluminum motor mounting block houses a bar magnet. This bar magnet is parallel with the mercury chopper switch.
The chopper disc is a green and black disc mounted on the filter wheel shaft next to the motor. The disc is composed of both magnetic and non- magnetic materials. As the shaft rotates, the magnetic portion of the disc shorts themagneticfluxasitpassesbetweenthemagnetandtheswitch.
5.5.9Battery-Powered Oscilloscope Synchronization Point
Because the line frequency cannot synchronize
5.6Interface Board Terminals Strip
At the bottom of the interface PCB on the Control Unit, are three terminal strip where wiring is distributed to other sections of the Model 6000B System. Such as AC power for the D2 lamp power supply, DC Power to the preampli- fier, High DC voltage for the photodetector, and signals to control calibration solenoids and filters. To gain access to this terminals, the silkscreen cover must be removed. These terminals are wired in the factory.
