What this manual does not contain
[edit | edit source]The manual works at FRU level. It has no schematics and no component values, and a system board is a single part number. The only capacitor it mentions is the "bulging capacitor" hazard in the safety inspection guide.
What it settles
[edit | edit source]The power systems checkout (pp. 36-38) gives the battery pack as +0 to +16.8 V between terminals 1 and 6, discharged if below +14.4 V dc, and 4 to 30 kΩ between terminals 5 and 6 if above it.
