OBSERVATIONS
AND
COKCLUSIOKS
1.
Ii
output
current
varies
from
zero
to
maximum
ratec
output,
this
indicates
that
the
series
regulator
and
driver
are
operable
and
that
the
constant
curren:
comparator
or
error
amplifier
are
at
rault.
Reconnect

disconnect
short

output
termiTIals,
clip-on

and
potentiometer
and
proceed
to
Table
5-10.
2.
If
the
output
current
does
not
vary
proportionally
to
the
potentiometer
setting,
this
indicates
that
the
series
regulator
or
driver
is
at
fault.

If

calculated
values)
does
not
vary
proportionally
to
the
pro-
grammed
output
(a
ccording
to

this
indicates
that
the
source
of
trouble
is
within

for
short.
Also
check

2.
If
actual

this
indicates
