Introduction

General

The Control Console for a Series 4400 testing system is
a precision electronic device that is designed for long
term trouble-free operation with only minimum periodic
maintenance. A Resident Test Program features an auto-
matic Self Test Routine, as described elsewhere in this
manual, which provides assurance of console reliability
each time you power up the instrument.
If the console does malfunction, this chapter describes
how to display and read error messages using the Diag-
nostic Monitor mode of the Resident Test Program. The
functioning of test LEDs on the rear of the console is
also described.
Included in this chapter is an interconnection drawing of
the Series 4400 console.

Special Maintenance Considerations

The control console contains a single printed circuit
board, on which are located all the features and func-
tions of the system. Instron maintains a stock of factory-
tested replacement boards that can be used to replace a
defective board in your system. There are no complex,
time-consuming troubleshooting procedures, and no
highly technical replacement of defective parts. This
means that repairs can be effected quickly and easily,
minimizing your system downtime.
If you need help with any maintenance problem con-
nected with your Series 4400 system, contact the factory
or your Instron regional Sales and Service Center.
