ESD NoticeESD Notice
(Electrostatic Static Discharge)(Electrostatic Static Discharge)
Today’s sophisticated electronics are electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive. ESD can weaken or damage
the electronics in a manner that renders them inoperative or reduces the time until their next failure.
Connect an ESD wrist strap to a ground connection point or unpainted metal in the product. Alternatively,
you can touch your finger repeatedly to a ground connection point or unpainted metal in the product. Before
removing a replacement part from its package, touch the anti
-
static bag to a ground connection point or
removing
a
replacement
part
from
its
package,
touch
the
anti
static
bag
to
a
ground
connection
point
or
unpainted metal in the product. Handle the electronic control assembly by its edges only. When
repackaging a failed electronic control assembly in an anti-static bag, observe these same precautions.

is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate
the receiving antenna; Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver; Connect the
equipment to an outlet on a different circuit than that to which the receiver is connected; or consult the
dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Basic Troubleshooting StepsBasic Troubleshooting Steps
Define, Localize, Isolate and Correct
•Define Look at the symptom carefully and determine what circuits could be causing
the failure. Use your senses Sight, Smell, Touch and Hearing. Look for burned parts and
check for possible overheated components. Capacitors will sometimes leak dielectric material
and give off a distinct odor Frequency of power supplies will change with the load or listen for

Frequency

supplies
will

,
or
listen
for
relay closing etc. Observation of the front Power LED may give some clues.
•Localize After carefully checking the symptom and determining the circuits to be
checked and after giving a thorough examination using your senses the first check should
checked
and
after
giving
a
thorough
examination
using
your
senses
the
first
check
should
always be the DC Supply Voltages to those circuits under test. Always confirm the supplies
are not only the proper level but be sure they are noise free. If the supplies are missing check
the resistance for possible short circuits.
•Isolate To further isolate the failure, check for the proper waveforms with the
Oscilloscope to make a final determination of the failure. Look for correct Amplitude Phasing
and Timing of the signals also check for the proper Duty Cycle of the signals. Sometimes
“
glitches
”
or
“
road bumps
”
will be an indication of an imminent failure

failure
.
•Correct The final step is to correct the problem. Be careful of ESD and make sure to
check the DC Supplies for proper levels. Make all necessary adjustments and lastly always
perform a Safety AC Leakage Test before returning the product back to the Customer
