• Set the Error Tones option to OFF or Low.
• Place tape over the speaker opening in the metal case to dampen the
sounds.
• Disconnect the speaker from the microprocessor.
Problem
: Analyzer will not learn a cable.
Possible Causes:
• The
Create Test From
option is set to
Last Cable
.
• The Connection Resistance threshold, or Insulation Resistance threshold is
not set properly.
Things to do
:
1. You cannot learn a cable’s wirelist when the
Create Test From
option is set to
Last Cable
. Change the option setting to
Sample Cable
. See page 17 for
instructions on how to do this.
2. If the
Insulation Resistance
is set to less than the
Connection Resistance
(which can take place if the
Connection Resistance
option is set to
AUTO
),
then the analyzer will prompt
Insulation Resis <AUTO.XXX
. The
Insulation
Resistance
should be raised to a value above the
Connection Resistance
set-
ting.
Problems with
Printing
Printer failures usually take place because of one of four things:
1. User error.
2. A bad printer.
3. A bad cable.
4. A bad microprocessor assembly.
These guidelies will help you solve printing problems:
Problem
: Nothing prints.
Possible Causes
:
• Printer is not on-line (selected).
• Cable between analyzer and printer is not connected properly.
• The printer has a serial instead of a parallel interface.
• A bad cable.
• A bad printer.
• A bad microprocessor assembly.
Things to do
:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on, on-line (selected), and not out of paper.
2. Check the cable connections at the analyzer and the printer. The cable should be
firmly connected to the back of the analyzer where it is marked
Printer-Parallel
Interface
. Check the connection at the printer end too.
