8.B The AMP Board
This board is used to amplify the signal from the detector, shape the signal into a stable bipolar
pulse, and drive the pulse down a 5.1 meter 50 ohm coaxial cable.
It is located next to the Detector in a metal case in the arm assembly of the DPX-IQ.
What to look for
• Do not disconnect anything from the AMP while the scanner is on. Doing so will destroy
U1 on the AMP.
• Check to see that the Molex connector (±12VDC) is firmly in place.
• Do not force the Lemo's on or off with a screwdriver because this will loosen the Lemo
sockets on the board.
• The arm cover is very close to the housing on top, so be sure that they are not touching
to avoid scraping during motor motion.
• TP's 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 should have no DC offset voltage.
