INTRODUCTION
This section
of the
manual
presents
warranty information and
service
methods.
Performance
test
procedures
are
presented
in
Section
4A,
access
procedures
in
4B,
calibration
adjustment procedures
in
Section 4C,
and
troubleshooting
and
repair
information
in
Section
4D.
Each
Signal
Generator
is
warranted
for
a period
of
one
year following delivery to the
original
purchaser.
The
warranty
is
located
in front
of Section
1
of
this
manual.
4-2.
SERVICE
METHODS
The
Signal
Generator
is
designed to be easily
and
economically serviced.
You may
return
your instrument
to
Fluke
for service,
or
you
may
service
it
yourself,
and
repair
it,
if
necessary,
by module
replacement or
component
replacement.
4-3.
Fluke Service
Fluke
Service
is
probably the
easiest
for you.
To
ship
a Signal Generator
to the
Fluke
Technical Service Center nearest you,
see
Section 2
for
shipping requirements
and
Section
7
for
a
list
of
repair centers.
A
cost estimate
will
be provided
if
you request
one
and
if
your
instrument purchase date
is
beyond
the
warranty
period.
4-4.
Module Replacement
If
your Generator
develops a problem,
see the
Troubleshooting
Section
4D
for
information
on
identifying the faulty
module. With
a
modest
amount
of technical
knowledge and
test
equipment,
you
can
identify
the
faulty
module and
replace
it
using the
Module Exchange
Program. This
method
takes
only a day or
two
to restore the
Generator
to
proper
working
order.
Very
little
or
no
calibration
is
required
depending on
the
module
replaced.
Module
exchange
is
used
if
it
is
necessary
to
completely
recalibrate
any
of
the three
modules
in
your Generator
that
have an
associated calibration
EPROM.
4-5- Parts
Replacement
Parts
replacement requires
more
equipment and
service capability but usually offers
the
best
economy
and quickest turnaround.
It
involves part replacement
at
the customer's
facility.
Most
faults are detected
by
the built-in
self tests
or the
UNCAL
status circuits.
By
noting
the
self-test
error
code and
interrogating the
UNCAL
status code, the service
technician
learns
where
the
problem
is.
By
applying
normal
signal tracing
and
troubleshooting
procedures
(see
Troubleshooting
in
Section
4D
of the
manual), the
fault
can be quickly
identified.
