WHAT TO DO BEFORE CALLING THE FACTORY

· The "Operating Status" screen is shown.
When someone calls in to the factory with a Quantum
problem, they usually don't provide enough information.
An example of this is the statement that the Quantum is
not "booting" (the main processor board is not starting).
Unfortunately, this description is usually vague and only
means that there is nothing on the display. A blank screen
could be the result of many different problems. Following
is a list of possible reasons for no display:
· No power
·
Loose or Faulty Display Cable or Inverter Cable
· Bad Display
·
Bad Backlight Inverter
· Bad Backlight Fluorescent Tube
·
Faulty CPU Board
· Wrong Combination of Display, Cable, Inverter,
or Software
Before calling the factory for assistance, review the
following information and try to discover and resolve your
Quantum problem.
WHAT SHOULD OCCUR WHEN POWERING UP
THE PANEL
The first thing that
troubleshooting the Quantum
sequence.
When powering up the Quantum the following sequence of
events are indicative of a properly working main processor
board:
Quantum 3
· The LED's for +5V, +12V, and –12V will turn
on solid. (Lower left corner of Main PCB)
· LED KB will begin to blink. (Left side of Main
PCB)
· Several initialization screens will appear
(these will look very similar to the way the
screen of a desktop computer appears when
it is booting.
·
The last of the initialization screens is the
"System Configuration" screen.
·
The screen will go blank for several seconds.
· The "Operating Status" screen is shown.
After the Quantum has properly powered up, the
following sequence of events is indicative of
proper communication to the analog and digital
boards:
·
The TX/RX LED's near the white connector
will begin to blink.
·
The Analog and Digital I/O boards TX/RX
lights should be blinking.
·
Each I/O board should have the power LED
(next to the white connector) lighted and the
"Active" LED (next to the blue DIP switch)
should be blinking.

Quantum 4
· Green PWR (Power) LED will turn on solid
(upper right corner of main PCB).
· Red FLASH LED will begin to intermittently
during the Boot process. It will then go out
once the "Operating Status" screen appears.
·
LED D8 (on the smaller board) will start to
blink at the rate of about once per second. It
will continue to blink after the Quantum has
booted.
·
Once the screen displays "Loading...", LED's
D4 , D5, D7 and D8 will be on solid.
· The "Operating Status" screen will appear.
·
Once actual data has been displayed on this
screen, LED D13 will come on solid and
D10, D11, and D12 will start to flash at a
quick rate.
After the Quantum has properly powered up, the
following sequence of events is indicative of
proper communication to the analog and digital
boards:
· The TX/RX LED's near the white connector
will begin to blink.
·
The Analog and Digital I/O boards TX/RX
lights should be blinking.
· Each I/O board should have the power LED
up
(next to the white connector) lighted and the
"Active" LED (next to the blue DIP switch)
should be blinking.
WHAT IF THE "OPERATING STATUS" SCREEN
IS NOT SHOWN
If the "Operating Status" screen is not shown, check the
following items:
Quantum 3
1. If no LED's are lighted, then check power AC
and DC.
2. Check if the lighting of the LED's is occurring
as de-scribed in the "What Should Occur
When Powering Up The Panel" section.
·
3. Check if an error message is displayed when
booting.
·
4. Check that the software is OK:
·
·
·
If the powering up sequence continues
to repeat without displaying
"Operating Status" screen, then there is
a booting problem.
Be sure to write down any error
messages that appear.
Is the correct software installed?
Did you just install new software?
If you need to clear the numerical
setpoint and calibration
memory for any reason, clear the
memory as described in the S90-010
FSI publication.
