11.1.2. FAULT DIAGNOSIS WITH TEST FUNCTIONS 
In addition to being useful predictive diagnostic tools, the test functions viewable from the calibrator’s front panel 
can be used to isolate and identify many operational problems when combined with a thorough understanding of 
the calibrator’s Theory of Operation (see Section 9).  
The acceptable ranges for these test functions are listed in the “Nominal Range” column of the calibrator Final 
Test and Validation Data Sheet shipped with the instrument.  Values outside these acceptable ranges indicate a 
failure of one or more of the calibrator’s subsystems.  Functions whose values are still within the acceptable 
range but have significantly changed from the measurement recorded on the factory data sheet may also 
indicate a failure.   
A worksheet has been provided in Appendix C to assist in recording the value of these Test Functions. 
Table 11-2 contains some of the more common causes for these values to be out of range.
