TROUBLESHOOTING

6.2 TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES

6.2.1 General

Troubleshooting begins with performing the maintenance turn-on procedure. The maintenance turn-on procedure

references the non-BIT and BIT troubleshooting procedures.

6.2.2 Maintenance Turn-On Procedure

The maintenance turn-on procedure is used to guide the maintainer through the proper RF-5800H-MP front panel

settings to power up the RF-5800H 125-Watt Communication System from a de-energized state to a fully

operational state. In each step the maintainer is to observe the RF-5800H 125-Watt Communication System for

normal operating conditions. Faults may be determined by using BIT or visual observation. BIT faults for all units

are displayed on the RF-5800H-MP KDU.

Perform the following procedure to power up the RF-5800H-MP and execute BIT:

a. Turn the power switch of the RF-5051PS to the ON position. If the system is vehicular, skip this step and

proceed directly to Step b.

b. Rotate the FUNCTION switch to the PT position. If the RF-5800H-MP does not power-up, verify that the

power source is on. If necessary proceed to Paragraph 6.2.3, non-BIT fault troubleshooting.

c. Press the OPT button.

d. If necessary, press the left/right arrow buttons to select the TEST field.

NOTE

While in TEST mode, the radio cannot receive or transmit.

e. Press the ENT button.

f. If necessary, press the left/right arrow buttons to select the ALL field.

g. Press the ENT button.

If the RF-5800H-MP displays a fault code on the LCD after completing the BIT test, record the fault

code and proceed to Paragraph 6.2.4, BIT Troubleshooting.

If the RF-5800H-MP displays no error messages, try to operate the RF-5800H 125-Watt Communication

System in an attempt to generate a run-time fault. If a run-time fault is generated, refer to the non-BIT

troubleshooting procedures in Paragraph 6.2.3.

If a run-time fault cannot be generated and the RF-5800H 125-Watt Communication System is still not

operating properly, refer to the non-BIT troubleshooting procedures in Paragraph 6.2.3.
