Catastrophic

failures

block

the

ability

of

the

spectrum

analyzer

to

run

troubleshooting

routines

(for

example

,

System

Diagnostics).

These

failures

usually

result

in

a

blank

or

distorted

display

on

the

screen,

ashing

error

LEDs

,

and/or

no

User

or

Menu

Troubleshooting

information

for

is

included

in

the

following:

a

list

of

causes

.

\HP-MSIB

Troubleshooting"

describes

two

troubleshooting

methods

for

HP-MSIB

problems

.

Before

troubleshooting

a

catastrophic

failure

,

verify

that

the

correct

line

power

is

applied

to

the

mainframe

and

stand-alone

display

instrument,

if

one

is

used.

The

HP

70001A

mainframe

or

HP

70004A

color

display

power-on

indicator

should

light

when

the

LINE

switch

is

turned

on.

If

the

power-on

indicator

does

not

light,

refer

to

the

HP

70001A

Service

Guide

or

HP

70004A

Service

Guide

for

troubleshooting

information.

Symptoms

The

two

kinds

of

symptoms

that

help

isolate

a

catastrophic

failure

are:

Error

Indicators

Abnormal

Screen

Display

Error

Indicators

All

elements

and

the

mainframe

have

error

indicators

to

assist

with

troubleshooting.

E

(Error)

Letter

and

ERR

(Error)

Light

The

display

instruments

error

indicator

is

a

letter

E

displayed

in

the

lower

right-hand

corner

status

block

of

the

screen

display

.

See

Figure

5-1.

Elements

,

except

displays

,

have

an

ERR

(Error)

indicator

LED

located

on

the

front

panel.

If

the

letter

E

or

the

ERR

LED

on

an

element

ashes

at

a

1

Hz

rate

,

either

the

element

cannot

communicate

over

the

HP-MSIB

and

is

probably

faulty

,

or

the

HP-MSIB

cables

are

faulty

or

not

connected

correctly

.

If

more

than

one

module

error

indicator

ashes

at

a

1

Hz

rate

,

either

the

mainframe

HP-MSIB

is

faulty

or

a

faulty

module

is

disrupting

the

entire

HP-MSIB

communication.

Note

It

is

possible

that

a

module

may

disrupt

all

HP-MSIB

communication

without

its

own

error

indicator

ashing.

HP-MSIB

Troubleshooting

information

on

the

following

pages

explains

how

to

isolate

some

HP-MSIB

problems

.

I/O

or

HP-MSIB

Indicator

is

On.

The

HP

70206A

system

graphics

display

or

HP

70004A

color

displays

have

,

in

addition

to

a

letter

E

indicator

,

an

I/O

or

HP-MSIB

error

indicator

.

The

indicator

should

be

o

when

both

HP-MSIB

cables

are

either

connected

to

or

disconnected

from

the

display

.

It

should

be

on

when

one

HP-MSIB

cable

is

disconnected

from

the

display

.

It

also

comes

on

when

any

mainframe

or

display

on

HP-MSIB

is

not

powered

on.

If

the

I/O

or

HP-MSIB

indicator

is

on,

no

element

can

operate

until

it

is

cleared

and

all

instruments

on

the

HP-MSIB

are

powered

on.

The

following

procedure

may

be

used

to

try

to

isolate

reasons

why

the

indicator

is

on.

1.

V

erify

that

the

power

to

all

mainframes

and

display

instruments

on

the

HP-MSIB

is

on.

2.

Check

that

all

HP-MSIB

cables

are

properly

and

securely

connected.
