To check the video signals
Refer to chapter 6, "Replacing Assemblies," for instructions on how to remove or replace
covers and assemblies.
WARNING
Hazardous voltages exist on the power supply, the CRT, and the CRT driver board. This
procedure is to be performed by service-trained personnel aware of the hazards involved,
such as fire and electrical shock.
1
Turn off the instrument, then remove the bottom cover.
2 On the color display assembly, disconnect the cable that connects the
microprocessor board to the color display assembly.
3 Turn on the instrument, then wait for it to power up.
4 Probe the cable for the horizontal sync, vertical sync, and display data signals.
The horizontal and vertical sync signals are TTL levels that resemble the figure.
The display data signals have a baseline of approximately ā1.7 V and vary in amplitude from
the baseline voltage to approximately 125 mV, depending on the characteristics of the colors
displayed.
5
Reconnect the cable, then return to the color display assembly flowchart.
