SWIFT 10 ATV Sensors Troubleshooting 119
Some or all transducer
output signals read 0 volts
at the TI output even when
a load is present. The TI is not turned on. Check that TI is turned on and the green power
indicator is lit.
The transducer signal cable
is not connected. Check that the cable is connected between the
TI box and the slip ring (or connector housing
for a road simulator).
Output cables are not
connected. Check that the output connectors are securely
fastened to the data acquisition device.
Cables or connectors are
damaged.
Check all cables and connectors, particularly the
power and transducer cable. Cables must be free
of nicks or cuts, and all connector pins shown
on the cable drawings must be present and not
bent.
Data acquisition
configuration, cabling, or
input ports are incorrect or
damaged.
Verify that the data acquisition is configured
correctly. While the TI is turned on and the
cable from the transducer to the TI is connected,
use a handheld DVM to verify output on
individual channels while they are being loaded.
Grounding problem. Check that there is a good signal-to-ground
connection between the TI power cable and the
negative terminal on the battery
