CSA8000 & TDS8000 Instruments and Sampling Modules
If the instrument will not boot, press F8 to enter the start up menu, and boot to
the command prompt. If you can boot to the command prompt, use the MSDOS
Edit program to edit the autoexec.bat file to run the CMOS restore utility (see
Update/Restore the NLX Board CMOS on page 6–80).
If booting starts, finds the hard disk, but hangs displaying the Windows splash
screen:
1. Select the AGP video port using the setup menu.
2. Disable the busses and disconnect the PPC board by installing J840 and J841.
3. If the system boots (it will only boot to Windows, the instrument application
will not run) to the external NLX video port, replace the PPC board.
PPC and NLX PC Diagnostics
The primary diagnostics for the instrument are the power-on diagnostics, the
QA+Win32 diagnostics, and the instrument diagnostics. Procedures for running
these diagnostics are described below.
The power-on diagnostics check the basic functionality of the instrument at every
power on. If any failures occur at power on, the screen displays the calibration
and diagnostics property page.
The power on tests ensure that hardware is installed and can be accessed by the
software. The tests provide limited diagnostic information, but do not provide
any performance information. The instrument diagnostics provide more extensive
tests than the power-on diagnostics.
The power on tests check the generic hardware including the keyboard, mouse,
memory, CPU, and associated peripherals. The interrupt lines and trigger lines
are also checked.
If the instrument passes all the BIOS tests and Windows boots, the primary tree
calls for you to run QAPlus/Win diagnostics software.
QAPlus/Win is a comprehensive diagnostic software application to check and
verify the operation of the PC hardware in the instrument.
To run QAPlus/Win, you must have a working keyboard (a working mouse or
other pointing device is optional) and have the Windows operating system
running. Repair or replace any failed component identified by QAPlus/Win.
