FRONT PANEL TESTS
KEYS DISPLAY-PATTERNS
4. Place the cursor on DISPLAY-PATTERNS and
press ENTER to start the display test. There are Þve
parts to the display test. Each time a front panel
key (except EXIT) is pressed, the next part of the
test sequence is selected. The Þve parts of the test
sequence are as follows:
A. Checkerboard pattern (alternate pixels on) and
all annunciators.
B. Checkerboard pattern and the annunciators
that are on during normal operation.
C. Horizontal lines (pixels) of the Þrst digit are se-
quenced.
D. Vertical lines (pixels) of the Þrst digit are se-
quenced.
E. Each digit (and adjacent annunciator) is se-
quenced. All the pixels of the selected digit are
on.
5. When Þnished, abort the display test by pressing
EXIT. The instrument returns to the SELF-TEST
MENU. Keep pressing EXIT to back out of the
menu structure.
2.5 Built-in test
BUILT-IN TEST is used to test and exercise various cir-
cuits and components on the digital board, analog
board and A/D converter board. The Built-In Tests are
listed in Table 2-1. Many of the tests are actual pass/fail
type tests, while others are circuit exercises that are
used for subsequent tests. Each Built-In Test can be run
manually. After a test is manually run, operation is
ÒfrozenÓ to allow the technician to troubleshoot the cir-
cuit. Troubleshooting documentation for each Built-In
Test is provided in paragraph 2.10.3.
