Troubleshooting
5-3
If your board is not operating properly after using the information in
Table 5-1
, continue with
“
Systematic problem isolation
” to further isolate the problem.
Systematic problem isolation
General problem isolation procedure
If you were unable to isolate the problem using
Table 5-1
, then follow
Figure 5-1
and the accom-
panying written procedure. The flowchart in
Figure 5-1
summarizes how to systematically check
and eliminate some problem causes. The corresponding written procedure amplifies the flow-
chart steps with more detail.
CAUTION
Always turn OFF your computer and any external circuits con-
nected to the KPCI-3160 board before removing or replacing the
board. Removing or replacing a board with the power ON can dam-
age the board, the computer, the external circuit, or all three.
Handle the board at the mounting bracket, using a grounded wrist
strap. Do not touch the circuit traces or connector contacts. If you do
not have a grounded wrist strap, periodically discharge static elec-
tricity by placing one hand firmly on a grounded metal portion of the
computer chassis.
NOTE
In the following procedure, the term “board” always refers to a
KPCI-3160 board. The procedure never directs you to install or remove
any type of PCI board other than a KPCI-3160 board.
In
Figure 5-1
, the number in brackets in each flowchart block (e.g
. [21]
)
refers to the corresponding step number in the verbal procedure. If mul-
tiple blocks in the flowchart have the same number, each of those blocks
is part of a single verbal step. Conversely, if there is a range of numbers
in the brackets (e.g.
[4, 5, 6]
), the block summarizes multiple verbal steps.
The logic in this procedure assumes that the problem has only one
cause. Therefore, once a cause is found and corrected, the reader is
instructed to reassemble the system and verify proper operation.
