11.1.1. FAULT DIAGNOSIS WITH WARNING MESSAGES
The most common and/or serious instrument failures will result in a warning message being displayed on the
front panel. Table 11-1 lists warning messages, along with their meaning and recommended corrective action.
It should be no
ted that more than two or three warning messages occurring at the same time is often an
indication that some fundamental sub-system (power supply, relay PCA, motherboard) has failed rather than an
indication of the specific failures referenced by the warnings. In this case, it is recommended that proper
operation of power supplies (See Section 11.4.3), the relay PCA (See Section 11.4.6), and the motherboard
(See Sectio
n11.4.8) be co
nfirmed before addressing the specific warning messages.
The M703
E will alert the user that a Warning Message is active by displaying the keypad label MSG on the Front
Panel. In this case, the Front panel display will look something like the following:
STANDBY LAMP DRIVER WARNING
TEST GEN STBY MSG CLR SETUP
The cali
brator will also al
ert the user via the Serial I/O COM port(s) and cause the FAULT LED on the front panel
to blink.
To view or clear the various warning messages press:
Once the last warning has
been cleared, the
MESSAGE

the currently selected

artifact of the warm-up period
