b) Check the voltage applied to the relay coil. This can be done by connecting an oscilloscope
across
the relay's coil and
executing the following
command, "TERM REARSADV
AUTO:NPLC 0;AZERO OFF:DCV 30:SLIST xx". Where xx indicates the channel being tested.
This will set up the voltmeter to continuously cycle (SETting and RESETting) the relay. If the
voltage is greater than 2.5 volts the relay should be working.
If the relay does not respond,
replace the relay. If the voltage is less than 2.5 volts, check the drive circuitr
4) To test the drive circuitry for each relay requires checking the associated row and column
drivers for the correct signal levels.
This can be done by tracing signal levels from outputs of the
shift registers through the correct circuitry to the relay coil. Since relay drivers are active for only
10 milliseconds, the command
"TERM REAR;SSADV
AUTO; NPLC 0;AZERO OFF;DCV
30;DISP
OFFSLIST xx" will continually cycle channel xx's drive uitry allowing the signal levels to be
checked
with an oscilloscope.
The table below
lists the correct output of shift registers U801 and
U802 for operation of each relay.
