8-341. If the Level-Shifter is operating correctly:
a.
Measure the input to the MRC, UU) of the ExecutiveMeasurement Block. The
1
MHz signal at pin
30
of U20 should be an ECL signal of 0.8 Volts p-p riding on a dc level of approximately
+
2.7
volts.
b. If the signal is missing or is a
TTL signal, check the voltage divider components R51,
R52,
and C54
for opens or shorts. Also check the dc level adjustment divider, R128 and R130.
8-342. The Trigger Light One-Shot circuit should cause the front panel trigger light to flash at a 10 Hz rate,
when using the same setup and input
as
before. If the trigger
light
is
dead:
a. Check the output of the one-shot,
U21B. The signal at pin 5 should be a 10 Hz TTL signal. If this out-
put is good, the signal may not
be
reaching the front panel.
b. Trace the signal through the inverter
U24E, the current-limiting resistor pack (R118) and finally, to
the front panel LED
(DS61).
8-343. If the one-shot output is dead:
a.
Measure the input at
U21B pin
6
and verify the presence of the
1
MHz, ECL signal of
+
1
volt p-p
offset by
-
1.3 volts dc. Troubelshoot the Schmitt Stage
if
this signal is missing.
b.
If the input is good, disconnect the
1
MHz input to the Counter and measure the dc reference at
U21B, pin 7. It should
be
approximately
-
1.3 volts. If this voltage is incorrect, check the Vbb
reference voltage at pin
1
for an approximate level of
-
1.3 volts.
Also
check resistor R53 and
capacitor C45 on the reference voltage line for opens or shorts.
8-344.
A trigger light failure may be caused by a defective feedback loop. To check for this:

No Input Signal to the Counter.
a.
Vary the TRIGGER LEVEL control over its range and note whether the Trigger Light turns
ON
and OFF. If the one-shot
will
not operate manually, replace U21.
b. If the Trigger Light works correctly in the manual mode, but
will
not flash at approximately 10 Hz
rate during
a
measurement, then the feedback loop is defective. Check the feedback components R54
and C47 for opens or shorts.
8-345.
DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTER (DAC) TROUBLESHOOTING
8-346. Failure symptoms in the DAC block include not being able to perform the DAC Zero or DAC Gain Ad-
justments, and a defective READ LEVELS-Trigger Levels or READ LEVELS-Peak Levels display. There are
no Failure Messages which apply specifically to the DAC block. However, a defective DAC Integrated Circuit
may cause a failure message display related to the Measurement Data Bus.
