KPCI-3101 — KPCI-3104 Series User’s Manual
Testing the board and host computer
To isolate the problem to the KPCI-3101–4 board or to the host computer, use the following
steps.
CAUTION
Removing a board with the power ON can cause damage to your
board and/or computer.
1. Turn the power to the host computer OFF, and remove power connections to the computer.
2. While keeping connections to accessories intact, unplug the cable to the main I/O connector
of the KPCI-3101–4 board.
3. Remove the board from the computer and visually check for damage. If a board is obviously
damaged, refer to
for information on returning the board.
4. With the KPCI-3101–4 board out of the computer, check the computer for proper operation.
Power up the computer and perform any necessary diagnostics.
At this point, if you have another KPCI-3101–4 board that you know is functional, you can test
the slot and I/O connections using the instructions in the next section. If you do not have another
board, call Technical Support.
Testing the accessory slot and I/O connections
When you are sure that the computer is operating properly, test the computer accessory slot and
I/O connections using another KPCI-3101–4 board that you know is functional. To test the com-
puter accessory slot and the I/O connections, follow these steps:
1. Remove computer power again, and install a KPCI-3101–4 board that you know is func-
tional. Do not make any I/O connections.
2. Turn computer power ON and check operation with the functional board in place. This test
checks the computer accessory slot. If you were using more than one board when the prob-
lem occurred, use the functional board to also test the other slot.
3. If the accessory slots are functional, use the functional board to check the I/O connections.
Reconnect and check the operation of the I/O connections, one at a time.
4. If operation fails for an I/O connection, check the individual inputs one at a time for shorts
and opens.
5. If operation remains normal to this point, the problem is in the KPCI-3101–4 board(s) origi-
nally in the computer. If you were using more than one board, try each board one at a time in
the computer to determine which is faulty.
6. If you cannot isolate the problem, refer to the following paragraph for information on obtain-
ing technical support.
