    KX-FT931LA-B 12.5.5. Digital Board Section When the unit fails to boot up the system, take the troubleshooting procedures very carefully. It may have a serious problem. The symptom: No response when the power is turned on. (No LCD display, and keys are not accepted.) The first step is to check the power source.
  • Page 100 KX-FT931LA-B 12.5.5.1. Digital Block Diagram Digital board is including analog system. All analog signals (Telephone, CID and TAM) excepting Fax communications. Another one is ASIC system for mechanical functions: Copy, Fax and UI (LCD/Key). And serial interface (UART) connects both systems.

  • Page 102 KX-FT931LA-B Normal Wave Patterns Remarks: When you use an oscilloscope to judge whether a signal to be tested is normal or NG, perform the signal check in exactly the same order as in [List 1]. (If the ASIC fails to access the ROM, the ASIC cannot access DRAM normally.) The digital circuit actually operates according to the timing combinations of these signals.
