    4.2  SCANNER TEST MODE 
    4.2.1  VPU TEST MODE 
    Output the VPU test pattern with SP4-907- 001 to make sure the scanner VPU control 
    operates correctly. The VPU test pattern prints  out after you have set the SP mode settings 
    and pressed the start key. 
    ƒ  The CCD on the SBU board may be defective if the copy is abnormal and the VPU test 
    pattern is normal. 
    ƒ The following can be the caus e if the copy is normal and the VPU test pattern is 
    abnormal: 
    ƒ  The harness may not be correctly c onnected between the SBU and the BICU 
    ƒ  The BICU (IPU) or SBU board may be defective. 
    4.2.2  BICU (IPU) TEST MODE 
    You can check the BICU (IPU) board with the SP mode menu, SP4-904-1 or -2. 
    If no error is detected, the  test ends. Then the completion  code shows in the operation 
    panel display. If an error is  detected, the test is interrupted. Then an error code shows. The 
    table below lists the completion and error codes. 
    SP4-904-1 Register Access 
    There are 16 bit switches in this SP. Each  bit indicates each CPU as follows. The error 
    result is displayed on the oper ation panel in decimal number. 
    0: Normal, 1: Error   
    Bit 0: TAURUS register 
    Bit 1: ORION register 
    Bit 2: LUPUS register  Bit 3 to 11: Not used 
    Bit 12: Ri20 register 
    Bit 13 to 15: Not used 
    SP4-904-2 Image Path 
    There are 16 bits switches in this SP. Each
     bit indicates each CPU path as follows. The 
    error result is displayed on the operation panel in decimal number. 
    0: Normal, 1: Error 
    Bit 0: Image path from SBU to TAURUS 
    Bit 1: Image path from TAURUS to ORION 
    Bit 2: Image path from ORION to TAURUS 
    Bit 3: Image path from TAURUS to LUPUS  Bit 4 to 11: Not used 
    Bit 12: Image path from LUPUS to Ri20 
    Bit 13: Image path from Ri20 to GAVD 
    Bit 14 and 15: Not used 
      
    						
    							B230/B237/D042 4-8 SM 
    Errors may be caused by the following problems: 
    1.  Short circuit on the signal lines  ƒ  When the BICU board is installed,  a pin or two on the ASIC is damaged. 
    ƒ  Some conductive matter or obje ct is trapped among the pins. 
    ƒ Condensation 
    2.  Destruction of circuit elements  ƒ  Over current or a defective element breaks the circuit. 
    3.  Abnormal power supply  •The required voltage is not  supplied to the devices. 
    4. Overheat/overcooling  ƒ  The environment is inappropriat e for the board (the scanner unit). 
    5. Static electricity  ƒ  Static electricity of a high  voltage occurs during the test. 
    6. Others  ƒ  The scanner and BICU are  incorrectly connected. 
    When you have completed a check, turn the  main switch off and on before you do another 
    check. When you have completed all necessary  checks, turn the main switch off and on.
