Subsystem Diagnostics
Subsystem Diagnostics checks numerous M4100 components. It first verifies
proper communications between the M4200c Controller and the M4100
Instrument, then runs tests on the following M4100 components:
DSP/CPU Board
Backplane
Low Voltage Power Supply Board
Heater/Temperature Controller Board
Timing Board
Safety Board
Amplifier Assembly
Guard Board
Guard Mode Switch Board
Main Reference Assembly
Field Calibration Reference
To perform these diagnostics:
1. Select Subsystem Diagnostics from the Diagnostics pull-down menu.
2. Press F2 to start the process, which takes several minutes.
When all the tests are completed, the result (PASSED or FAILED) for each
M4100 Component is reported, as in Figure 4.15.
