amp minimum. A blown fuse can be identified by visible inspection or by use
of an ohm meter. The fuses are located under each IP slot near the “logic
connectors” (see drawing 4502-135). Note that fuse type and current limit
may vary. Contact Acromag for further details.
Power Supply Filters
Power line filters are dedicated to each IP module for filtering of the +5, +12,
and -12 volt supplies. The power line filters are a “T” type filter circuit
comprising ferrite bead inductors and a feed-through capacitor. The filters
provide improved noise performance as is required on precision analog IP
modules.

SERVICE AND REPAIR
SERVICE AND REPAIR ASSISTANCE
Surface-Mounted Technology (SMT) boards are generally difficult to repair. It
is highly recommended that a non-functioning board be returned to Acromag
for repair. The board can be damaged unless special SMT repair and service
tools are used. Further, Acromag has automated test equipment that
thoroughly checks the performance of each board. .
Please refer to Acromag's Service Policy Bulletin or contact Acromag for
complete details on how to obtain parts and repair.
PRELIMINARY SERVICE PROCEDURE
Before beginning repair, be sure that all of the procedures in Section 2,
Preparation For Use, have been followed. Also, refer to the documentation of
your carrier board to verify that it is correctly configured. Verify that there
are no blown fuses. Replacement of the carrier and/or IP with one that is
known to work correctly is a good technique to isolate a faulty board.
CAUTION: POWER MUST BE TURNED OFF BEFORE REMOVING OR INSERTING BOARDS
