1200 Power Supply
1. Press View Test Info and highlight Self Test 1200. Press View Details.
2. From the displayed self–test results, determine which supply or supplies
failed.
3. Refer to the following table; disconnect one microcircuit at a time and run
self–test 1200.
— If the test passes after disconnecting one or more microcircuits,
replace the microcircuit.
— If self–test still fails after disconnecting all the microcircuits,
replace the A26 MID.
1201 Mod Filter
1. Disconnect the cable between the A23 Lowband Coupler/Detector and the
A30 Modulation Filter, and connect a spectrum analyzer to the cable.
