5.3 Troubleshooting Notes
5.3.1
Power Supply
This is the common denominator among malfunctions of all types. Because the GT 9000 has
many regulated supplies, and they are not all used by all circuits, it is possible for the failure of
a single supply to disable only a part of the system. For this reason power supply voltages
should be checked whenever there is a malfunction, even though the malfunction may seem
limited or localized.
WARNING
Dangerously high DC voltages are present inside the Switching Power Supply
module. Do not attempt to open this module.
Power supplies that originate on the A11 PC board are listed in Table 5-1.

Cooling fan
The four +12 V switched supplies listed below are all derived from the +15 V input from the switching power supply
module; they are dedicated to particular band-related amplifiers within the microwave module, and are switched off when
the instrument is not within the frequency range which requires that amplifier.
20-26.5 +12 V
A11-27
amplifier in the microwave module that is ON in
the 20-26.5 GHz range
2-20 +12 V
A11-29
as above, 2-20 range
.01-20 +12 V
A11-31
as above, .01-20 range
.01-2 +12 V
A11-33
as above, .01-2 range
+12 VSB (28-40 +12 V)
A11-15
reserved for future applications
+12 VSA (20-28 +12 V)
A11-19
reserved for future applications
+35 V
A11-83
fluorescent display drivers
Unreg20"
(~+23.4 V)
A11-85
relay driver for AC power relay
+15 VB
A11-95
heater supply for timebase & 100 MHz crystal
oscillator (on in standby mode)
