Verify operation of U9,
MarkerIRF Switch Control, by making the following key
entry:

Enters byte with alternate
highllow states
Check the outputs of U9 for the alternating
highllow pattern. To obtain the
complement of each of the U9 outputs, press
. . (AA). This will expose any
locked latch registers.
To verify operation of U13, Delay Compensation Control, make the following
key entries:
MI 2 GHzs 0 1 Address location 2COl (U13)
M2 Hex Data Write

highllow states
Check the outputs of U13 for the alternating
highllow pattern. To obtain the
complements of each of the U13 outputs, press
. . . Check the outputs of U13
again.
Markers
To troubleshoot A7 for marker failure symptoms, start by using an oscilloscope
to check Test Points 1,
2, and 3.

Engage the 1 MHz frequency marker and check TPl. The signal should
represent a TTL pulse approximately 2 cm wide. See Figure 8-57. Likewise, the
pulse at
TPl should be 4 cm wide for 10 MHz Markers, and 6 cm wide for 50
MHz Markers. If these pulses appear to be incorrect, check that analog switch
U2A,C,D is switching properly. If it is, check the output pulse widths of the
monostable multivibrators against the data given in Table 8-12.
