KPCI-3101 — KPCI-3104 Series User’s Manual
10. Measure and compare the analog output voltages as indicated in
:
a. Measure the voltages at analog outputs 0 and 1 with your DVM/DMM.
b. Compare the voltages you measured in step 10a with the voltages you set via the analog-
output level control.
11. Using your mouse, slide the CH0 and CH1 level control buttons until the tiny displays at the
bottoms of the level controls read 5.0.
12. Measure and compare the analog output voltages as indicated in
:
a. Measure the voltages at analog outputs 0 and 1 with your DVM/DMM.
b. Compare the voltages you measured in step 12a with the voltages you set via the analog-
output level control.
13. Based on the measured voltages in steps 10 and 12, take action as follows:
•
If the voltages measured with the DVM/DMM do not agree with the level control set-
tings, then there is an apparent problem with the analog output part of your board. Stop
here, and return to the problem isolation step in “
Problem isolation Scheme F: the board
that asked you to perform the Analog output hardware test.
•
If the voltages measured with the DVM/DMM agree with level control settings, then the
analog outputs are working satisfactorily. Stop here, and return to the problem isolation
step in “
Problem isolation Scheme F: the board
,” that asked you to perform the Analog
output hardware test.

Test connections and correct readings for zero-voltage analog output, using an STA-300
screw terminal accessory connected to J1
To test this
analog output…
…connect the DVM or DMM to
these terminals on an STA-300
accessory:
If board works correctly, the
following voltages should agree:
