Self Diagnosis Function; Outline; Criteria For Judgment Of Abnormality - Sony PFM-42B1 Service Manual

4-2. Self Diagnosis Function

4-2-1. Outline

The PFM-42B1/B1E has the self diagnosis function using
A/D converter to detect the power supply analog voltages,
8 channels of temperature sensor, fan operations, power
unit temperature, DC voltage status, and to check the
EEPROM and the watch register. When any abnormality
occurs or defect is detected, the standby indicator on the
control panel flashes and the detected data is displayed on
the service menu [STATUS/TEST] block. If the abnormal
status exceeds the allowable limit, the PFM-42B1/B1E is
forced to shut down.
The detection items are shown as follows.
1. Increase and decrease of the panel DC voltage Vs is
detected.
2. Increase and decrease of the panel DC voltage Va is
detected.
3. Increase of temperature at the I/O block on top of the
panel is detected. Shut down of machine.
4. Increase of temperature at the center in the top of the
panel is detected. Shut down of machine.
5. Increase of temperature at the DC-DC converter on top
of the panel is detected. Shut down of machine.
6. Temperature at the left side of the panel is detected.
7. Detection of fan stop and that of drive circuit failure.
* Two fans at the bottom of the panel and the four fans
for power supply circuit. One fan in the I/O block.
8. Detection of temperature rise in the power supply
block.
9. Shut down when the 5 V for internal digital circuit has
abnormality.
10. Detection of failure of the EEPROM.
11. Detection of abnormality in communication with scan
converter.
12. Detection of failure in the ON/OFF control of power
supply.
13. Detection of decreased backup power supply voltage
for watch and detection of abnormality in oscillator.
14. Detection of PDP failure using the combination of the
voltage detection and shut down of the machine.
