(5) Turn RESISTANCE & A/C INDICATOR
CHECK switch successively to 8 , 15 , and 22
positions. In each of the above positions, multimeter
shall read higher than when switch is in NULL
BAL position.
4-7. Trouble Analysis.
a. General Troubleshooting Information.
(1) Initial Check. Before troubleshooting a
tester using tables 4-4 through 4-11 and paragraphs
4-7 b through 4-7 e, determine (1) that power of the
proper voltage and frequency, as specified at the
POWER INPUT receptacle, is applied to the tester,
and (2) that the MASTER POWER switch is on.
(2) Gaining Access to Circuit Boards.
CAUTION
Always remove power from the tester
when removing or installing a circuit
board,
(a) Probe Controller Boards.
1. Disconnect BH15184A power inter-
connect cable from INTERCONNECT connectors.
2. Support tester lid and remove lid stop
arm screw (12, fig. 4-29).
3. Remove screws (3) around edge of
probe controller deck.
4. Lift controller asssembly high enough
to slip support (fig. 1-43) under back edge of deck.
5. To operate tester after opening probe
controller, connect BH15184A-1 power interconnect
cable (table 1-15) to INTERCONNECT connectors.
(b) Trimmer Card Cage Boards
CAUTION
For proper terminal identification
and to prevent damage to a circuit
card in the card cage, install an ex-
tender board assembly (table 1-15)
such that the lettered terminals are
toward the deck and the circuit board
such that its components are toward
the deck.
1. Disconnect BH15184A power inter-
connect cable from INTERCONNECT connectors.
2. Remove screws (1, fig, FO-7) around
edge of trimmer deck and lift deck assembly from
case.
3. Remove circuit card retainers, (8) to
gain access to circuit cards.
4. Place an extender board assembly
(table 1-15) between the card cage receptacle and
the circuit board being tested, observing the caution
above.
5. To power the tester after removing the
trimmer assembly, connect the BH15184A-1 power
interconnect cable (table 1-15) between the INTER-
CONNECT connectors.
(3) Test Points. Test points, star-encircled
Arabic numerals, e.g.
, are identified on the
schematic diagrams and board assembly drawings
for the purpose of troubleshooting.
(4) Integrated Circuits. Note from the part
lists in Section V of Chapter 4 that one board assem-
bly may contain several integrated circuits having
the same manufacturers part number. Swapping
locations of identical integrated circuits may pro-
vide a clue to a malfunction. Care should be exer-
cised when swapping gates to note which circuits
are affected by the gates.
CAUTION
Integrated circuit leads are fragile.
Exercise care when removing or in-
stalling integrated circuits.
Always remove power from the tester when re-
moving or installing a circuit component. The num-
bering of integrated circuit pins is explained in
paragraph 1-4 b (11) (b).
b. Troubleshooting the DC Power Supplies.
Table 4-12 lists voltages and voltage test points of
the dc power supplies in the tester. Voltages shall be
within voltage ranges when line voltage is 115 ±
15 percent. There are no adjustments to these volt-
ages.
c . T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g t h e A /D
Converters. Before troubleshooting an A/D
converter, open the trimmer assembly per
paragraph 4-7a. (2) (b). Make the testsetup of
figure 4-1 when troubleshooting the TEMP °C
indicator and of figure 4-2 when troubleshooting
the % RPM indicator. When troubleshooting either
indicator, apply a full-scale signal and use an
oscilloscope to check the waveforms of figure 4-7.
Indicator data is listed in table 4-13. Test points are
identified in figures 4-8 and 4-9 and on the A/D
converter schematics (figs. FO-4 and FO-5).
