27 4. Troubleshooting

28

29 Introduction All troubleshooting must be performed by qualified service technicians who have basic electrical troubleshooting skills and the proper equipment (i.e., voltage meter). This manual does not imply a license to troubleshoot or perform repairs without proper qualifications. CAUTION: Some troubleshooting requires the instrument to be turned on while the cover is removed. Use extreme caution when operating the instrument without the cover. Hazardous voltages are present at the AC input and power supply. The troubleshooting chart in this section lists problems that may occur while operating the instrument. The left column describes the symptom, the middle column lists checks to determine what is causing the problem, and the right column suggests an action to resolve the problem. Follow the checks in the order they are listed. If you perform checks out of order, you risk replacing the wrong part. If, after performing all checks, there is still a problem, call the Fiske Associates Product Service Department. See Service Assistance (Section 1 - Introduction) for the appropriate phone number to call. Diagnostic Menu The Diagnostic Menu [DIAG] contains items that allow discrete testing of each component of the instrument. Enter the Diagnostic Menu by scrolling to it, and pushing the [DIAG] button. A description of the available tests follows. 1. A/D Tests A/D Tests are designed to check the performance of the cooling assembly, and the efficiency of heat transfer between the components of the cooling assembly. The result of an A/D Test gives a "duty cycle", expressed as a percentage indication of how much power the thermoelectric cooler uses to reach an operating temperature sensed by the block probe. An increasing duty cycle indicates deteriorating performance of the cooling assembly. Pressing the left button will change the set or selected cooling assembly temperature. Pressing the right button will change the display from resistance to temperature. The sample probe readings are also displayed. 2. Probe Bin Test The bin test is used to determine the resistance of the sample probe at a specific temperature. ( C is used for convenience, which corresponds to the 50 mosm/kg calibration standard.) When a new sample probe is installed, the bin number must be determined and entered into the instrument from the Setup Menu. With age or hard use, the resistance of a probe may change. It is therefore useful to recheck the bin test as part of a routine diagnostic check. 3. Solenoid Test The Solenoid Test will manually trigger the freeze solenoid. The solenoid should give an audible impact immediately on pressing the [START] button. 4. Display/Print Test This test sends a complete character set to the display, serial port and printer port. This test will identify any problems with these areas. 5. Key/Beeper Test Proper function of the keypad can be confirmed by this test. As each button is pressed, [*******] appears above the button and a beep is heard. 29 Fiske Micro-Osmometer Service Manual

30 6. Barcode Test This menu selection is for testing a barcode scanner. Scanned information will appear on the display, and a short beep will occur. Additional scans may be performed until the test is cancelled. Please note that the barcode scanner may also beep, if its beeper is not disabled. Exit Returns the user to the "Osmometer Ready" prompt. Fiske Micro-Osmometer Service Manual 30
