Tester for drivers board SYSTEM 80
![Test SYS80 Drivers](/images/pages/articles/materiel/TestSYS80Drivers.png)
Standalone tester for drivers boards.
Very few components are needed to built this module, which allow to
quickly check the functioning of the drivers cards.
For SYSTEM 80, 80A & 80B.
Presentation
This assembly allows to visually check the status of the outputs of a driver card.
This card send the proper commands to drive the outputs of the drivers board:
- Lamps.
- Solenoïds.
- Sounds.
To view the status of the outputs, it could be associated to a LED indicator board. All needs only a single 5 volt power supply.
Prototype
The installation consists mainly of a PIC 18F452 and was cable on an experimentation board.
Achievement
As our prototype working perfectly and following many requests, we decided to produce a small series of modules. Finish of the installation is now much more professional and we have the opportunity to simplify.
The female connector is replaced by a male, which simplifies the work of welding. On the other hand this allows to use and test the standard slick CPU/driver of origin (this often being oxidized and source of problems). It is also possible to feed the card from the power supply of the CPU (A1 - J1) connector.
Assembly of the board presents no difficulty, the schema of implantation is downloadable below:
In the end, the module with its printed circuit board, with serigraphy, double-sided, metalized holes:
