What to do
Signal generator does not generate any output power (HF1=0).
Exchange the signal generator.
LED B7 is not alive ⇒ Exchange fuse F10 (4AT).
Preliminary amplifier does not deliver any output power
(HF2=0).
Exchange the preliminary amplifier.
Power amplifier does not deliver any output power (HF3=0).
Check anode voltage ⇒ X28 (power supply):
approx. 1.8 V DC.
Check cathode voltage ⇒ X23 (power supply): approx. 0.9 V
DC.
Check heating voltage ⇒ X35 (PCB distributor on power
amplifier): approx. 4.8 V AC.
Exchange power amplifier if required.
Restart the unit with the service menu.
Check HF1/HF2 and HF3 without power (P=0W).
PCB controller may be defective (if HF1/HF2 and HF3 = 0)
Exchange defective PCB.
Restart the instrument without pressing the STOP button; or
replace the STOP button.
Replace IC MAX691 or exchange PCB controller.
Replace PSD312 or exchange PCB controller.
Replace PSD312 or exchange PCB controller.
Check the mains supply.
Check connection of the mains cable.
Let the unit cool down.
Check the fuses of the unit's mains connection and replace if
required. Check the mains voltage specifications on the back of
the unit and select another voltage as described in chapter 4.5.
