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 13).
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.
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.
A worksheet has been provided in Appendix C to assist in recording the
value of these test functions. This worksheet also includes expected
values for the various test functions.
