Step 4. Faulty Group Isolation
Use the following procedures only if you have read the previous sections in
this chapter and you think the problem is in the analyzer. These are simple
procedures to verify the four functional groups in sequence, and determine
which group is faulty.
The four functional groups are:
n
power supplies
w
digital control
n
source
n
receiver
Descriptions of these groups are provided in Chapter 12, “Theory of Operation.”
The checks in the following pages must be performed in the order presented.
If one of the procedures fails, it is an indication that the problem is in the
functional group checked. Go to the troubleshooting information for the
indicated group, to isolate the problem to the defective assembly.
