6. Check for the presence of the SCAN RAMP signal by connecting an oscilloscope probe to
A3J2 pin 45 (
component side of A3J2). Connect the negative-probe lead to A3TP4.
7. A 0 to 10 V ramp should be present in both LINE and FREE RUN trigger modes. If the
waveform is present only in LINE trigger, ADC control signal HBADC-CLKO may be
faulty. Refer to “ADC Control Signals” in this chapter.
8. If the scan ramp is present, but is not being switched to the output of U108, replace
U108. If the scan ramp is absent in either mode, do the following:
a. Connect the oscilloscope probe to A3J400 pin 15 (HSCAN).
b. A TTL signal (high during 50 ms sweep time and low during retrace) should
be present, indicating A3 is working properly. Refer to the Synthesizer Section
troubleshooting procedure.
A faulty TTL signal indicates a bad A3 Interface assembly.

10. Check for the presence of the CAL OSC TUNE signal by monitoring A3J401 pin 25 with
an oscilloscope. If ERR 499 CAL UNLK is displayed and a signal greater than 10 V
peak-to-peak during part of the retrace period, is present, the fault is on the A3 assembly.
11. If a constant dc voltage is present during the sweep and all of the retrace period, refer to
the IF Section troubleshooting procedure.
