1 General information
1.1 Introduction
The 150W MF/HF transceiver with integrated DSC and telex is designed for maritime applications in
voluntary as well as compulsorily fitted vessels. It offers simplex and semi-duplex SSB radiotelephone
communication in the maritime mobile frequency bands between 1.6 and 30 MHz. The basic version of
the transceiver include voice, DSC and a dedicated 2187,5kHz DSC watch receiver, forming an ideal
system for MF GMDSS installations. The transceiver can easily be upgraded to include 6 channel
scanning DSC watch receiver, and Telex operation to comply with MF/HF requirements in sea area A3.
The upgrade is done by entering software license codes.
The equipment consists of a compact transceiver control unit, a fully remote controlled transceiver unit
and an automatic antenna tuning unit.
The microprocessor controlled Antenna Tuning Unit automatically matches the impedance of antennas
between 8 and 18 metres in length and requires no presetting at the installation. The typical tuning time
is 1 s. It is designed for outdoor installation and may be located up to 100 metres from the Transceiver
Unit.
The Transceiver Unit contains all receiver and transmitter circuits. The fully protected solid state 150W
power amplifier cooled by natural convection matches a 50 ohm antenna system, but is normally used
in connection with the Antenna Tuning Unit. The DSC/Telex modem contains two demodulators, one
connected to the built-in watch receiver for continuous watch on the DSC distress frequency 2187.5 kHz,
the other connected to the communication receiver which may be used to keep simultaneous watch on
other DSC frequencies or may be used for telex communication.
The Control Unit is for operation of radiotelephone as well as DSC and telex functions. Use of the
equipment is simple, logic and straight forward. DSC operation is based on the use of soft keys. Guiding
texts are provided and the large display is able to show the contents of a complete call in one screen.
For telex operation the keyboard, printer or data terminal can be connected directly to the control unit.
The equipment is designed for operation from a 24 V battery. With the optional AC Power Supply unit
installed the equipment may be supplied from 115/230 V AC main or emergency supplies with automatic
switch-over to 24 V DC supply in the absence of AC supply voltage. Also optionally battery charger for
AC is available in the product line.
The built-in test facilities and easy-to-replace module design of the equipment simplifies the service
concept.

2.3 Ground connections
Antenna Tuning Unit

As the earth connection of a transmitter is a very important
part of the antenna system, it is of the utmost importance
to keep in mind that the earth connection of the Antenna
Tuning Unit must have the lowest possible RF-impedance.
Losses in the earth connection will result in a decrease in
radiated power which means that the range of the
transmitter will be reduced. In steel ships a 100 x 0.5 mm
copper strap as short as possible is connected between Copper strap 100 x 0.5mm
80
the earth terminal at the bottom of the Antenna Tuning
R3.3
Unit and two or three 1/2" or M12 bolts welded to the
50
superstructure. Vessels constructed of non-conducting
6.6
materials must be equipped with a copper earth plate
20
having a minimum area of 1 square metre mounted below
the water line. From a copper earth bolt hard soldered to
the earth plate a 100 x 0.5 mm copper strap is run, 6 Dimensions are in mm.
preferably uninterrupted to the earth terminal at the bottom 37872

of the Antenna Tuning Unit.
Should it be necessary to break the copper strap, for example to pass through a deck, two or three 1/2"
or M12 bolts should be used for this feed through. On wooden ships having a superstructure of metal,
this superstructure should also be effectively connected to the copper strap by using stainless steel bolts
and preferably pieces of stainless steel strips between the metal parts. On fibre glass boats, such as
yachts and sailing boats, it may be difficult to install a sufficiently good earth. Short copper straps are
bolted to conducting parts on the engine, the keel and other conducting objects. Many copper straps can
be glued to the inner surface of the hull below the water line to produce a large capacitance to the water.
It is important that the total area of copper is large and that the distance between the copper surface and
the water is as small as possible. The copper straps are connected directly to the ATU.
Transceiver Unit and Control Unit 11mm

The Transceiver Unit is preferably grounded
separately to the ships metal in the shortest possible
way. A 10 to 16mm sq. ground wire is connected to
the ground terminal (cable clamp) at the bottom of wire
crimp
the unit. ø5.4mm
37836
2.4 Grounding considerations

Proper system grounding is one of the most important installation details.
Two areas of grounding must be considered:
a) The ground connection between the ATU and earth ground plane.
b) The ground connection of the TU and the externally connected equipment.
Each area requires separate considerations

even though they are interrelated. Ideally the Not OK installation
Control Unit, Transceiver Unit, Antenna Tun-
ing Unit and the antenna ground-plane must
have the same RF ground potential. Unfortu- 'Hot' Handset
nately this situation is seldom achieved, but
interference problems will be reduced along ATU
TU
with how close to this “ideal” the grounding of CU
the installation is performed.

On some installations ground loops will cause
problems. A ground loop is caused by more RF current loop
Zg
than one ground path for a given unit. This will
introduce circulating RF currents which may
cause malfunction of other equipment onboard Ground-Plane
the ship as well as a “hot” handset. 37867

2-6
Antenna start
The vertical antenna always start at its electrical ground-plane, whether or not it is physically mounted
there. First determine the antenna’s electrical ground-plane, which is where the ATU must be mounted.
Where possible always take the ATU to the ground, not the ground to the ATU.
In case of a fibreglass boat, the ground-plane may well be at the hull grounding terminal. Then this is where
the Antenna Tuning Unit should go and this is where the antenna actually starts.

37868
RF ground loop
It is not always possible or practical to mount the ATU using a very short strap to the actual ground-plane.
In such a case the coaxialcable may be connected between units with different ground potentials causing
RF loop-current to flow.

Minimizing ground loops

By routing the coax cable very close together with the ATU ground strap (secure good RF coupling
between the two) all the way down to the ground-plane, there will be no RF ground loop left to generate
the interference.

2.5 Antennas
Transceiver Antenna
The equipment is used with common transmitting and receiving antenna. The antenna should be erected
in the open, away from conducting object such as derricks etc. which may cause reduction of the radiated
power. Insulators should be of the best type having low leakage even when wet. Stays, wires, steel masts
etc. should be either effectively earthed or insulated. The antenna should also be kept as far away as
possible from electrical equipment in order to minimize noise. Electrical installation such as cable braiding
(screens) and instruments in the vicinity of the antenna should be earthed effectively, and the instruments
in question should be fitted with noise-interference suppression devices, effective in the range 0.1 MHz
to 30 MHz to avoid malfunction of these instruments. The Antenna Tuning Unit will tune on any frequency
in the range 1.6 to 27 MHz to good whip and/or wire installations of 12 to 18 meters total electrical length.
Shorter antennas, electrical length down to 8 meters can be used. Where possible long antennas should
be installed to maximize the radiated power in the lower frequency bands.
In general a 12 meter antenna installation can be made using an 8 meter whip and 4.5 meter feeder or
a 10 meter whip and 2.5 meter feeder. In both cases the whip should be mounted on a pole allowing for
the feeder to be erected at an angle of no less than 60 degrees to create a vertical antenna system. Using
horizontal feeders or feeders mounted at an angle below 45 degrees usually transform the antenna
radiation resistance to a lower value reducing the radiated power. Furthermore, the total antenna system
should be kept well away from conductive objects such as the mast. Usually a horizontal distance of more
than 4 meters will create good results.
Note: If a whip antenna is used this should have an anti-corona ball as a top termination to prevent
crackling noise in the receiver.
The antenna is terminated at the insulator at the top of the

Antenna Tuning Unit. The insulator must be relieved from
mechanical stress by using max. 1 metre flexible wire
between the insulator and a support. To maximize the
radiated power and avoid flash over keep distance to metal
parts as long as possible. All wire junctions in the antenna
system must be made with cable lugs of correct size
according to the wire gauge. This will prevent bad connec-
tions due to corrosion. For further corrosion proofing grease
may be applied to the cable joints.

DSC watch receiver antenna

The DSC watch receiver antenna may be an active or a passive type.
The antenna should be erected well in the clear and kept away as far as possible from electrical
equipment in order to minimize noise. Electrical installation such as cable braiding and instruments in the
vicinity of the antenna should be earthed effectively, and the instruments in question should be fitted with
noise-interference suppression devices, effective in the range 0.1 to 30 MHz. The antenna feed-in should
be coaxial cable.
In case of a passive antenna the feed-in should be as short as possible, especially in the case of short
antennas. The recommended antenna length is 7-30 meters. If a long coax cable is necessary an
impedance matching transformer should be inserted at the antenna or an active antenna should be used.
DC supply voltage for an active antenna is available at the DSC RX antenna connector. The supply
voltage is +12 V for supply currents up to 20 mA. The short circuit current is limited to 2 mA to allow passive
antennas with matching transformers to be connected directly.

2.6 Power supply

The supply leads are connected to the supply terminal strip of the Transceiver Unit. The supply terminal
strip is adapted for screened power supply cable to meet EMC requirements. The screen of the cable is
connected to the left terminal.
The earth connection of the equipment will not cause the battery to be earthed. Maximum permissible
peak voltage between the battery terminals and earth is 100 V. Note that fuses must be provided in the
supply leads. Table below shows the necessary cable cross sections and external fuse ratings.

Modem Set-up
Modem set-up mode is selected automatically when selecting telex mode on if no call codes are valid or
if the answer back string is not valid. To change a valid set-up, a factory reset of the modem must be
performed.
When entering telex mode after a factory reset the 5-digit call code, may then be entered. The MMSI
number from the control unit will be printed, but cannot be changed. The answer back string allocated to
the station may then be entered. To leave a setting unchanged just press ‘¬ Enter’, otherwise key in a new
setting and press ‘¬ Enter’. The next item is then printed. After the last item follows:
Accept settings (Y/N)?
The process may be repeated if ‘N’ is pressed; the modem set-up mode is left if ‘Y’ is pressed.
The answer back, which should be entered above is combined by the 5-digit call code or MMSI number,
the abbreviated ID and an “x” e.g.:
12345 abcd x or 123456789 abcd x
2.17 Final installation check

For operation of the equipment please refer to the User Manual.
Check the hardware configuration of the transceiver by selecting FUNC and the ‘INFO & TEST’,
‘INFORMATION’ ‘HW VERSION’ menu items, in particular check that the Antenna Tuning Unit is
recognized, if installed.
Perform a Self Test of the transceiver by selecting FUNC and the ‘INFO & TEST’, ‘CHECK’, ‘SELFTEST’
menu items. The self test is performed automatically and is used for verification of all functions. Check
the transmitter in all marine bands.
The Antenna Tuning Unit will tune automatically to the antenna first time the equipment is keyed on a
new frequency or when the TUNE button is pressed. During the tune sequence and normal transmission
all transmitter circuits are monitored to ensure safe operating conditions. If transmission conditions are
bad ( bad antenna installation, high temperatures, etc. ) the transmitted power will be reduced to a safe
limit. If the transmission condition is improved automatic recovery to full power takes place.
The protection can be investigated by selecting FUNC and the ‘INFO & TEST’, ‘CHECK’, ‘TX PROTEC-
TION’ menu items. The displayed protection code(s) is described in the Service chapter of this manual.
If a GPS is connected, check position and time in the DSC Status display.
If time is not contained in the NMEA sentences the time of position is indicated as —:—. In this case check
if the GPS output setting can be changed to allow time information. Otherwise UTC time must be entered
manually each time the transceiver is switched on.
Send a DSC test call to the appropriate coast station. The acknowledgement from the coast station is
received by the 2187.5 kHz watch receiver if the call was sent on that frequency. If the call is sent on HF
only the audio signal output from the 2187.5 kHz watch receiver should be checked by selecting FUNC
and the ‘INFO & TEST’, ‘MONITOR’, ‘WR AUDIO’ menu items.

The main module consists of the digital part, i.e. the microprocessor, program FLASH PROM,
configuration FLASH PROM, RAM, ScanBus data communication driver, SPARC-Bus driver, Printer
interface, Keyboard interface and data terminal interface.
The main module also consists of an analog part, i.e. the voltage regulators, the analog interface circuits
and the analog output drivers (audio and light). The main module supports a build-in speaker and the
connectivity of an external 8 ohm speaker.
The MMI module contains the graphical TFT color display (240x320 dots), the display controller, keyboard
interface and encoders for volume and rotary knob.
3.2 Transceiver Unit

Block diagram page 3-3, Interconnection diagram page 3-4.
The Transceiver Unit consists of five modules. Three modules located in the base part of the unit: a control
and interconnection module, a receiver/exciter signal path module, and a synthesizer and DSC RX
module including master oscillator, and two modules are located in the door part of the unit: a power
amplifier module including filter bank and a switched mode power supply. The main wiring is by ribbon
cables with Micro MaTch connectors. RF signals are routed in coaxial cables using Taico, MCX and BNC
connectors.
3.3 Control/Intercon module 60-122878

The Control/Intercon module performs the digital and analogue control of the transceiver functions
requested by the Control Unit and contains interconnection circuits. The central part is the CPU. The
program software is contained in Flash PROM. A separate Flash PROM holds the configuration
parameters. The processor communicates with the CU via the CAN interface, with auxiliary equipment
via an RS-232 interface and the ATU via a modem circuit. Internal communication is via the TU Bus. The
transmitter is monitored via the PA Peak, Filter Peak and Filter Average detectors. An adjustable opto-
isolated battery detector circuit monitors the battery voltage at the Supply Alarm connector and triggers
an alarm when outside the set range. The CPU also performs DSC modulator and dual DSC demodulator
functions. The modulator output is through a transversal filter. Audio switching allows loop back test.
Audio circuits convert between unbalanced and balanced lines used by the ScanBus.
3.4 Synth. and DSC WR module 60-122879

The Synthesiser part includes Master oscillator, dividers, 3.LO PLL and VCO, 2.LO filters and multiplier
and 1.LO fractional N system as well as both 1. and 2. DSC LO PLL and VCO. The Master oscillator
generates a 17.8176MHz reference signal which is distributed to the local Synthesizer LO sub-circuits.
The appropriate frequencies for the MF/HF transceiver are then generated.
The DSC Watch receiver is built up as a Double Super Heterodyne Receiver using Intermediate
frequencies of 30.155 MHz and 455 KHz.
After frequency conversion to 455 KHz the signal is fed to 455 KHz IF2 AGC amplifier before led to final
detection / conversion to 1700 Hz.
The Signal is filtered out by 1700 Hz Audio filter and afterwards led to limiting amplifier thus creating the
DSC output for further processing.
The Receiver Signal Path also includes antenna supply and receiver protection circuitry.
A RF splitter divides the DSC antenna signal between the Watch Receiver and the Main Receiver, which
uses the signal in telex mode.
The Synthesizer used for the Watch Receiver consists of the following sub circuits:

division by 4 the final DSC LO1 resolution is 500 Hz. Three separate VCO´ s are used for covering
the necessary frequency range. A 14.85 MHz TCXO is used for reference for the PLL.
· A doubler Circuit submitted to the 14,85 MHz reference signal is used for DSC LO2 signal thus
creating 29.70 MHz.
· A 14.6144 MHz TCXO divided by 32 thus creating 456.7 KHz is used for DSC LO3 signal.
3.5 RX/EX signal path module 60-122880

The RX signal path includes protection, pre-selection, mixers, IF amplifiers, filter bank, demodulator,
squelch and audio. The RX signal path has Automatic Gain Control. The RX signal path performs the
handling of the received antenna signal and delivers an AF signal, via the Control/Intercon module where
the AF signal is converted from an unbalanced to a balanced signal, to the Control Unit.
The RX signal path also includes a DSC receiver signal path, which uses the MF/HF signal path, until the
last down conversion. DSC part includes a mixer, base band filter and hard limiter. During DSC reception,
the DSC part overrules the normal MF/HF reception.
The EX signal path includes AF compressor, modulator, filter bank, mixers and EX output amplifiers. The
EX signal path has Automatic Loop Control. The EX signal path generates the modulated RF signal,
adjusted to correct level - ALC adjusted signal, to the Power Amplifier.
The RX / EX signal path is controlled by the Control/Intercon module and receives its injection signal from
the Synth./DSC WR module.
3.6 PA and Filters module 60-122881

The PA and Filters module includes PA drivers, PA-stage, protection circuits, bias circuits, key circuit and
seven low-pass filters with relays and relay drivers. The PA and Filters receives the modulated RF input
signal from the RX/EX Signal Path and delivers the amplified and filtered output signal to the TX/RX
connector via a receive/transmit relay on the Control/Intercon module.
The low-pass filters removes the unwanted harmonic frequencies from the PA signal. The Filpeak and
PAprotec outputs are monitoring signals for the Control/Intercon module. The driver and final power
amplifier stages are galvanically isolated on input and output as they are supplied directly from the 24 V
DC input. The selection of low-pass filter is controlled by the Control/Intercon module.
The PA filters cover the frequency ranges:

1.6 – 2.3 MHz
2.3 – 3.05 MHz
3.05 – 4.5 MHz
4.5 – 8.8 MHz
8.8 – 16.81 MHz
16.81 – 19.0 MHz
19 – 30.0 MHz
3.7 SMPS module 60-123937

The Switched Mode Power Supply supplies the low power circuits of the equipment with the various
stabilized voltages required, and provides galvanic isolation from the supply source. The equipment is
supplied from a 21.6 – 31.2 V DC power source. The module also carries the input filter and PA supply
output which is not galvanically isolated.
The power supply converts the incoming voltage to 7.5 V, +15 V, -15, and 25 V. The SMPS is switched
on from the Control Unit via the Scanbus SUPPLY ON wire and switched off under software control via
the SUPPLY ON/OFF connection from the Control/Intercon module. The DC supply voltage is sensed by
a BAT INFO detector circuit and fed to the Control/Intercon module for automatic RF output power
adjustment.

3.10 Antenna Tuning Unit
ATU module 60-122883

The ATU module comprises tuning network, measuring system and micro-controller circuits. The ATU
module matches the impedance of the antenna to 50 ohm in order to gain the best possible SWR. The
ATU module communicates tuning process and frequency information with the transceiver unit. The
tuning network consists of Capacitor Bank 1, Capacitor Bank 2, and an Inductor Bank. With these it is
possible to form either an L-network or a p-network. The capacitor banks and inductor bank are built up
by binary related capacitors respectively binary related coils. The setting of capacitance and inductance
is accomplished by relays. A current detector at the antenna output terminal is used for measuring the
antenna current for display at the Control Unit. To prevent overload of the relays, current detectors are
incorporated in the Inductor Bank and in Capacitor Bank 2 and information fed back to the transceiver
unit to decrease the output power if maximum permissible current is exceeded. To prevent overheating
a temperature sensor is incorporated which at excessive temperatures commands the transceiver to
reduce the output power.
In receive mode an RX-Amplifier included in the Antenna Tuning Unit will be inserted, to improve the
sensitivity of the system. It is possible to select the sensitivity in the steps OFF and NORMAL from the
Control Unit.

3.12 Power control and protection system

The Transceiver has an automatic power level system, which ensures that optimum power is delivered
to the Antenna. The Tune Sequence, which is automatically initiated when keying the transmitter after
a frequency change, makes the Tuning Network of the Antenna Tuning Unit tune to the best obtainable
SWR. This is followed by an Automatic Level Control (ALC) adjustment according to the available power
supply voltage, measuring the output current of the PA Filters (FILPEAK @ 10 Vp at full output),
transmitting AM carrier, and setting the overall gain by the ALC voltage (MGC/ALC). It is now possible
to transmit on full output power unless protection is activated or LOW POWER is selected. The output
power is continuously monitored by the microprocessor, and is automatically adjusted during transmis-
sion to provide reliable communication .
Power Amplifier Protection

The protection of the power amplifier consists of V+I protection, SWR protection, and thermal protection.
When PA PEAK, the output signal of the voltage detector at the output of the power amplifier is exceeding
10 V the output power is reduced to a safe level. If the ALC loop is at fault, disconnected or responding
too slow and the PA PEAK is exceeding 10V, the gain will be reduced in the power amplifier, operating
as a local and independent PA protection. The thermal protection consist of a temperature sensor on the
power amplifier and an average detector on the Control/Intercon module reducing the output power when
the duty cycle of the transmitted signal exceeds 50% for more than 60 seconds. The available power
supply voltage is measured in the DC power supply and the information BAT INFO is transferred to the
Control/Intercon module. If the supply voltage is dropping the microprocessor will adjust the output power
to keep distortion below the limits.
Antenna Tuning Unit Protection

The ATU is protected by several detectors all monitored by the ATU´s microprocessor, which calculates
the SWR, temperature, maximum voltage and current. If these parameters are not below safe operating
limits it requests for lower power.
Protection Codes
The current status of the power control and protection may be displayed in the form of Protection Codes
by selecting MENU and the ‘INFO & TEST’, ‘CHECK’ and ‘TX PROTECTION’ menu items. The Protection
Codes are described in the Service chapter of this manual.
It should be noted that protection may be in force even under normal conditions e.g. code nos. 25, 44 and
48:
No. 25 requests lower Pout relatively to increasing SWR at the Power amplifier.
@ SWR= 1.1 reduction will only be a few watt’s
@ SWR= 2.0 reduction will be 2-3 dB
No. 44 and 48 requests lower Pout relatively to increasing V or I at ATU.

This is normal when transmitting on lower frequencies and short antennas (L<< 1/4 wavelength), and /
or parallel capacitance present at the antenna, feeder, insulators, etc.

4.1 Preventive maintenance

Due to the modern design of the transceiver preventive maintenance can be reduced to a minimum
provided the equipment is correctly installed. To ensure maximum performance and minimum repair
trouble we recommend you to follow the below stated headlines for preventive maintenance.
1. The condition of the battery should be checked at frequent intervals. The battery must always be
fully charged and should be topped up frequently with distilled water (liquid should be 5 to 10 mm
above the plates).
2. Check the condition of antenna installation, ground connection and cables at regular intervals.
3. Keep antenna feed-through insulators clean and dry.
4. Ensure that no objects are obstructing the free airflow through the cooling fins of the Transceiver
Unit and keep the units free of dust accumulation to prevent overheating.
5. For cleaning use a damp cloth. Sticky dirt may be removed using a cloth with a weak soap solution.
Wipe off with a clean cloth.
4.2 Realignment of master oscillator

The master oscillator determines the exact transmit and receive frequencies of the equipment. All
oscillators age very slowly with time, typically with the highest drift rate the first year, approaching zero
drift after some years. Adjustment should be performed by a qualified technician with the necessary test
equipment at his disposal.
1. Measuring Equipment:
Frequency Counter: Frequency range 100 MHz

Input impedance = 1 Mohm
Sensitivity at least 0.2 Vrms
Accuracy better than 0.01ppm
2. Preparations:
2.1 Switch on the power at least 30 minutes before adjustment.

2.2 Open the front of the Transceiver Unit.
2.3 Locate X13 on SYNTH.AND DSC WR module 60-122879 carrying the 2. Local Oscillator
signal from the synthesizer to the RX/EX Signal Path. Connect the frequency counter probe
to the inner conductor of the X13 socket on the synthesizer.
2.4 The ambient temperature should be within 10 to 30 deg. Celsius. Do not adjust the Master
Oscillator shortly after long keying sequences of the transmitter. Be sure that thermal
equilibrium has been reached before adjustment.
3. Realignment of Master Oscillator:
3.1 Locate the Master Oscillator adjustment hole in the metal cover over SYNTH.AND DSC WR
module 60-122879. Use a small screwdriver to gently adjust the frequency.
3.2 Adjust the frequency as close as possible to 44.544 000 MHz.
Adjustment tolerance +/-1Hz.
3.3 Remove the counter probe and refit the front of the Transceiver Unit.

4.6 Selftest
Introduction
The ’SELF TEST’ BITE (Built-In Test Equipment) of the transceiver is used as a fault diagnosing tool for
the service technician. It may also be used by the operator to obtain additional information on a problem
when ordering service.
The ’SELF TEST’ checks the vital functions of the Transceivers modules by performing and monitoring
a sequence of operations. The program controls the analog and digital set ups necessary to perform each
test step in the line of tests executed during the ’SELF TEST’. These set ups will result in a digital feed
back from go/no-go analog check detectors, A/D converters or digital circuits.
Self test description

The ‘SELF TEST’ is started by selecting MENU and the ‘INFO &TEST’, ‘CHECK’, ‘SELFTEST’ menu items.
All tests which does not involve transmission will automatically be performed successively until the last
test has passed or an error condition has occurred. The test number and a name is displayed as the test
proceeds.
After the last test the user has the option to continue with a test of the transmitter with power delivered
to the antenna. The user selects the test frequency. Both receiver and transmitter are set to the test
frequency which should be selected so as to cause minimal disturbance of others.
0745
4-5
If stopped due to an error condition, an error code is displayed. Only one error code is given as a result
of each test (the lowest number fitting). The user has the option to repeat the test or cancel.
It is also possible to select a single test step for service purposes. Tests may be repeated several times
giving a technician the opportunity to make measurements. Note that test on an arbitrary test number may
provide a false indication to where the problem is, as the self test assumes that all previous test steps have
been performed and found OK.
