Hi everyone,
I bought a known non-working 34901 mix card for the 34970 data acquisition unit recently. I have plugged it into the 34970 and I am getting a 913 error. There is nothing listed in the manual that I have about this error, but googling it turns up that the "Module returned nonvolatile memory fault".
Looking through the schematic, there is a FRAM on the board (U150) which is a 24C04-S. Is it a matter of just replacing this, being a FRAM, does it need to be programmed with anything, it says nonvolatile memory error which makes me think that it needs to be programmed, but RAM to me is not programmed before installation.
I checked the board over for damage before plugging it into the 34970, so I was hoping that it was just some relays that were busted when I bought it. It still opens and closes the relays and takes readings, so I am not sure what the error is affecting. If anyone out there has any more insight with things I should check, please let me know.
Cheers
