6.17  Front Panel PCB6 (WK-3988) Test Point Voltages

The test point voltages on the Front Panel Circuit Board should be verified as follows.
1.  Set up the contactor closure circuit by installing a jumper between pins 2 and 3 of the REMOTE 8 receptacle;
2.  Measure the voltage between test points TP8 and TP0 to be 12VDC.
3.  Measure the voltage between test points TP4 and TP0 to be 5VDC.
4.  Measure the voltage between test points TP5 and TP0 to be 5VDC.
5.  Set up the contactor closure circuit by removing the jumper from the REMOTE 8 receptacle;
6.  Measure the voltage between test points TP8 and TP0 to be 3.5VDC.
7.  Measure the voltage between test points TP4 and TP0 to be 0VDC.
8.  Measure the voltage between test points TP5 and TP0 to be 0VDC.
9.  Measure between TP0 and the test points below to verify the voltages given:
