Multiple faults

When more misconnections are simultaneously in place at the audio outputs, it is

guaranteed that at least one of them is initially read out. The others are notified after

successive cycles of I2C reading and faults removal, provided that the diagnostic is enabled.

This is true for both kinds of diagnostic (Turn on and Permanent).

The table below shows all the couples of double-fault possible. It should be taken into

account that a short circuit with the 4 ohm speaker unconnected is considered as double

fault.

Table 5. Double fault table for turn on diagnostic

S. GND (so) / S. GND (sk) in the above table make a distinction according to which of the 2

outputs is shorted to ground (test-current source side= so, test-current sink side = sk). More

precisely, in Channels LF and RR, so = CH+, sk = CH-; in Channels LR and RF, so = CH-,

sk = CH+.

In Permanent Diagnostic the table is the same, with only a difference concerning Open

Load(*), which is not among the recognizable faults. Should an Open Load be present

during the device's normal working, it would be detected at a subsequent Turn on

Diagnostic cycle (i.e. at the successive Car Radio Turn on).
