Detailed Board Fault Location
This section provides more specific information to measure the performance
of each board. You should have a understanding of the operation of the test
equipment (refer to “General Fault Location” on page 14-16 and “Basic
Board Fault Location” on page 14-17) to locate the fault area and then use the
information in this section to confirm the nature of the fault.
Supply Voltages
To check the radio supply voltages:
1. Connect an external 13.8V, 5A power supply to the PRC1099A. Use
either the PRC-PS power supply or the PRC-CA12V battery cable.
The PRC-CA12V cable includes a protective diode to prevent damage
if the polarity of the power supply is accidentally reversed. There is a
small voltage drop across this diode.
2. Turn the
Power
knob to
LO
.
