Type 150/400 Course Computers
the SIL pad is punctured the power devices are likely to be blown. This test is to check
whether the SIL pad is intact.
• Using a DVM set to Ohms, touch one probe on the metal tab of the power device
and the other on the heatsink.
• Check that the resistance measured is >500K
• Repeat for all power devices along the right hand side of the PCB.
3.3. Detailed Diagnosis
Before starting testing ensure that the following are connected to the Course Computer:
• Fluxgate compass
• Rudder reference
• Control Head
• 330Ohm resistive load to the clutch terminals
• Pathfinder Display connected via NMEA 1 (do not connect the Pathfinder unit via
SeaTalk)
Unless otherwise stated, the following tests should be carried out with 12V applied to
the Course Computer
Step 1 - Power Checks
• Check the voltages at the following locations are correct:
