Replace it.
11. If some or all of the signals are missing, continue with step 12.
12. Turn off the oscilloscope and disconnect the front-panel cable from the main
board at connector J202 (two-channel models) or J1 (four-channel models).
13. Turn on the oscilloscope and check connector J202 (two-channel models) or
J1 (four-channel models) for the same signals as in step 9.
14. If some or all of the signals are missing, the main board is probably
defective. Replace it.
To troubleshoot the main board (acquisition module), follow these steps:
