1 Getting ready for
inspecting
waveforms.
The connector used to control the Pump/ASF motor
is indicated in the figure below. Using the oscillo
scope, check the waveform for each phase output
from the indicated connector. To check the
waveform, press the Load/Eject button to attempt
the ASF paper feeding. Be sure to leave the cable
for the Pump/ASF motor connected.
NOTE:
The GND can be output by placing the
probe of the oscillo scope to the tapped
hole in the bottom plate on the board with a
screw. Note the connector has no ground
line since this printer drives the motor with
the bipolar system.
