Problem Analysis

 

 

3.1  Procedures

 

 

The  following  analysis  procedures  are  meant  to  aid  in  isolating  E-Scan  failures  down  to  the 

board, or in the case of the sensing head--device level.  Board or device replacement with a fast 

turnaround is available from EMC.  (See “Repair/Replacement Policy”) 

 

 

These abbreviations are used:

 

 

I/O

  Main E-Scan I/O board 

Conditions analog voltages for digital microprocessor. 

 

CPU

  CPU card 

 

 

Microprocessor, plugs into the I/O board. 

 

IB

 

Interface board 

 

Most external connections are made to this board. 

 

 

 

Typical display ranges for voltages in test mode are:

 

 

LED voltage 

 

2.5 - 4.8 vdc (Varies slightly with temperature and cable length.) 

Measure voltage 

 

Varies with process 0-10v range with 1-9 vdc nominal. 

Temperature voltage  

 

0 to 5 vdc = -25 to 225°C 

  

 

Before any troubleshooting always check that all cards are properly plugged in, ribbon cables are 

properly socketed and that correct power is supplied.
