CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
If
the instrument appears to
be
operating abnormally,
and
an
investigation
of input/output connections, as
well as
a
calibration
check,
do
not
cure the
problem; follow the
trouble-shooting
procedure
outlined below. Localize the
fault
to a
specific stage
by
following the outline
in
Table
4-2.
Then
check
the
dc
operating voltages
at
the pins of
the
solid-state
devices,
and check
passive
components
with
a
high
input
impedance
ohmmeter
(power
off)
before
replacing a
suspected
semiconductor
element.

4-2.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE
Symptom
Corrective
Action
Blown
Line.Fuse
Replace FI with
a
slow
blow
fuse of
the proper amperage.
If
fuse
blows
again,
check
the
following:
a)
Q45
or
Q47 may
be
shorted
between
the
collector
and
emitter.
b|
Q1,
Q8,
Q10,
or
Q16
on power
supply board
may
be
shorted to the heat
sink bracket.
c)
A
capacitor or
transistor
may
be
shorted.
d)
Check
for loose
wires or
solder bridges
on each
printed
circuit
board.
Power Supply
MalfunctiorK
If
there
is
a
symptom
of
power
supply malfunction,
discon-
nect
alt
wires
between
die
power
supply board to the
main
board and
sweep
board
and check
the following:
a)
All
power
supply output
voltages.
If
all
are either
too
high or
too
low, the trouble
is
probably
in
the
+15
V
supply
as
all
supplies are directly or
indirectly
referenced
to
it.
b)
Check
CR9
through
CR
12.
A
defective or incorrectly
polar-
ized
diode
will
cause the
integrated
circuits
to
latch
up.
c)
Reference
voltage
at
collector
of
Q9
should be +6.6
V
±0.3
V
with
+15
V
in
normal
condition.
