2. Voltage Measurements
Connect a calibrated DVM across the GND and +24V test points on the Interconnect board. Record the
reading in section 4.1 of the build record.
The AUP voltage measurements are in the parameter settings –hardware in the ASI software.
Record the values in section 4.1 of the build record.

3. Temperature Sensors
There are 3 temperature sensors on the Artemis to check. The microwave front end sensor that is mounted
to the PIN module, this is the tmwf temperature reading.
The taup and the tagc temperature sensors are on board the AUP. Remove the AUP and slot in the AUP
breakout board. To test these you don’t need to remove the top cover of the AUP enclosure (Picture shows
areas to spray) and spray each of the sensor areas with freezer spray for a fraction of a second (prolonged
spraying can cause thermal damage) watch the temperature on the ASI drop and recover by a few degrees.
The ambient temperature measurements are in the parameter settings –hardware in the ASI software.
Record the values in section 4.2 of the build record.
