Maintenance and Performance Checks 5-18
Problems in the CPU and the digital circuit may cause a complete
malfunction of the entire instrument. The CPU would not start
generating control signals. This makes it impossible to
troubleshoot the remaining circuits. Check the various components
associated with the CPU circuitry, its clocks, and the components
associated with the VXI ASIC using the information given in Table
5-1.

Output Amplifier and
Amplitude Control
Checkout
Problems with the output amplifier and amplitude control circuits
can be detected if the Model 3152 accepts word serial commands
and responds correctly to word serial queries, but fails to output the
correct waveform with correct amplitude and offset levels. If there
is a problem with the output amplifier or with the amplitude control
circuit, proceed with the checkout procedure given in Table 5-2.
Before starting the following procedure, reset the Model 3152 to the
factory defaults using the *RST command. Then send the
command OUTPUT ON.
