Set oscilloscope to 50microsecondsper division, normal triggered, on positve-going edges Monitor 2A13J1-15. Press AIRBORNE BITE
switch on data link control
(a)
The oscilloscope trace remains low throughout the BITE test(does not trigger) The logic level at pm 15 is low (LO)
(b)
The oscilloscope triggers and remains high (3 5+ 1 5V) without interruption, the level at pm 15 is high (HI)
(c)
The oscilloscope trace may show a COMBINATION of HI and LO at pm 15

Set oscilloscope for 0 2V per division and 50 microseconds per division Monitor (2A17JI-17 Place POWER switch on data limk
Replace defective circuit card ("ars 3-11)
(a) A pattern of pulses approximately 0 4 V in amplitude referenced to ground, each pulse approximately 13 microseconds wide, appears Test
(b) The pattern described in step 30(a) does not appear at any time Perform step 11
Step 11
Connect oscilloscope to 2A19XA17-26 Observe digital activity A pulse tram of normal logic levels (O 0 5 V low level and Replace
defective circuit d card (para 3-11) 3 51 5V high level with pulsewidths of approximately 13 microseconds should appear
(b) Correct pulses not present Test 2A7 (para 3-30), then 2A6 (para 3-29) Perform steps 2 and 3 of Malfunction 7 without repetition
(a) Correct pulse levels and widths are present, perform step 12.
Step 12
Check 2A19XA17-27 for a logic high level This signal cycles on and off during BITE You must restart by pressing DOWNLINK BITE
once to terminate BITE and once again after the green BlTE-IN-PRCS light goes out The high level should appear Replace defective
circuit card within 2 or 3 seconds after restarting the BIT test The level will then go low momentarily and return high again
(a) Signal is always low or does not reach a true high level Test 2A 16 (para 3-36), then 2A17 (para 3- 37) Perform steps 2 and 3 of
Malfunction 7
(b) Signal alternates high and low during BITE test Test 2A17 (para 3 -37) Perform steps 2 and 3 of Malfunction 7 without repetition Replace
