not present,  proceed 
with 
the 
following 
steps. 
Set  amplitude

input 
signal 
to. 3v 
rms.  Measure 
ac 
signal 
at 
AS-pin 
7 
for 
approximately 185 mV 
rms 
(use 
a 
10 
Mn/lO 
pF 
impedance probe).  This voltage 
will 
incream 
to 
approximately 2.4 
V

If 
proper voltage is  present, 
proceed

if 
not,

Measure ac 
output 
of 
rejection amplitier 
at 
AS-pin 
2 
for approximately 0.32 
V 
rms. 
If 
proper  voltage 
is 
present,  check high 
pass 
filter and  switch,  and  check function 
and 
meter range ewitch connections. 
If  proper 
voltage 
is 
not 
present,  go to step e. 
Measure ac 
signal 
at 
AB-pin  8 for approxi- 
mately 315 mV  rms 
(we 
a 
10

If 
proper  voltage 
is 
present,  check  A3Q1 
through A396 and  associated circuitry. 
If 
proper  voltage 
is 
not  present,  check Wien 
bridge circuit. 
Measure ac  input  to rejection  amplifier 
at 
AS-pin 
1 
for approximately  0.29
