SOURCE WARNING
Occurs when CO Ref is <1250
mVDC or >4950 mVDC.
Either of these conditions will result
in an invalid M/R ratio.
GFC Wheel stopped
Failed sync/demod board
If status LEDs on the sync/demod board ARE flashing the cause is
most likely a failed:

This message occurs at power on. If you have not cycled the power
on your instrument:

FAULT DIAGNOSIS WITH TEST FUNCTIONS
Besides being useful as predictive diagnostic tools, the test functions viewable from the
front panel can be used to isolate and identify many operational problems when
combined with a thorough understanding of the analyzer’s Theory of Operation (see
Section 12).
The acceptable ranges for these test functions are listed in the “Nominal Range” column
of the analyzer
Final Test and Validation Data Sheet
(T300, P/N 04307 and T300M,
P/N 04311) shipped with the instrument. Values outside these acceptable ranges
indicate a failure of one or more of the analyzer’s subsystems. Functions whose values
are still within the acceptable range but have significantly changed from the
measurement recorded on the factory data sheet may also indicate a failure.
