Problem Isolation
7-5
Testing the Board and Host Computer
To isolate the problem to the PIO-SSR Series 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 PIO-SSR Series board.
3. Remove the board from the computer and visually check for damage.
If a board is obviously damaged, refer to
Technical Support
on page
7-6 for information on returning the board.
4. With the PIO-SSR Series 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 PIO-SSR Series 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, refer to the
instructions in
Technical Support
on page 7-6 before calling Keithley for
technical support.
