After two seconds it will return to the System menu.
3.3.4 System Self-Diagnostic Test
The Model 6020 has a built-in self-diagnostic testing routine. Pre-pro-
grammed signals are sent through the power supply, output board, preamp
board and sensor circuit. The return signal is analyzed, and at the end of the test
the status of each function is displayed on the screen, either as
OK or as a
number between 1 and 1024. (See System Self Diagnostic Test in chapter 5
for number code.)
Note: The sensor will always show failed unless Zero fluid is present
in the sampling cell at the time of the SELF-TEST input thru
the sample inlet.
The self diagnostics are run automatically by the analyzer whenever the
instrument is turned on, but the test can also be run by the operator at will. If
any of the functions fails, the System Alarm is tripped, but is not tripped at the
startup because it might give false alarm after a power failure. To initiate a self
diagnostic test during operation enter the System menu.
