Jumper
If Missing
If in Place
W5
VBOOT enable at A3Q1
(this jumper is in place when loading new A/D
firmware. If you forgot to remove the jumper,
you would receive this error)
VBOOT disable at A3Q1 prevents
A3U6 from initializing (error 7 is
reported at the front panel, or error 64
over the RS-232 interface)
W6
Flash disabled (error 7 is reported at the front
panel, or error 64 over the RS-232 interface)
Flash enable
W8
A/D HI disable, between the dc buffer amplifier
and a/d converter (A/D converter failure)
A/D HI enable, between the dc buffer
amplifier and a/d converter (A/D
converter operate)
Normal jumper position is shown in bold.
Break/Reset Circuit
Check the break/reset circuit formed by A3U1 and A3U3, and related components. The
result line at A3U1-7, IG RESET* (Inguard Reset). At power up, IG RESET* should stay
low for about 250 ms and then go high for normal operation. If IG RESET* fails to go
high, then troubleshoot the reset circuit. When IG RESET* goes high, the signal HALT*
at A3U1-1 should also go high. HALT* is an I/O pin on the A3U5 microprocessor.
Out of Tolerance Readings
Out-of-tolerance readings may occur although self-test passed. This could be an out of
calibration problem due to too long a cycle between device calibrations, or due to a
failure. Clues come from the range and function where the problem occurs. If the
problem is all functions and all ranges, this points to A/D converter problems, in
particular the precision voltages used for measurements. To locate problem, complete the
Performance Test in Chapter 4 and note which parameters are out of tolerance. If all
parameters are out of tolerance, this points towards a failure in the A/D converter
circuitry, in particular, dc power supply voltages that are incorrect. If only certain
functions or ranges are out of tolerance, then the problem may be in the treeing and
channel select relays, or signal conditioning circuitry, or A3U30 Stallion device and
related circuit elements. When you have identified the functions and ranges that are not
correct, note the signal paths on the schematic and look for a common element.
For dc volt problems that affect all channels, look for faults in the dc buffer and Stallion
device. For dc volt problems on individual channels or groups of channels, check the
channel select (PAI only) and treeing relays.
For resistance problems, check the dc volts characteristics first. If there are no problems,
then the difficulty is not in the dc buffer circuitry. This would suggest a problem in the
ohms conditioning circuit or the A3U30 Stallion device.
For ac volt problems, check the V dc characteristics first. If there are no problems, then
the difficulty is probably in the ac-to-dc conversion circuitry.
