Purpose:
The lab aims to introduce engineering students to current industry practices that utilize Hexadecimal and Binary data to provide the user with system status. In industry, the engineer designing the system uses the tools taught in the class to isolate specific BITs from other information being transmitted. The class focuses on the digital design aspect and uses hypothetical results whereas this lab gaps the ideal of the results being tied to something tangible.
This is a two-part lab; the student has 1 week to turn in the lab report. Part two is assigned after the first lab has been completed.

Deliverables:
Each Lab is comprised of three sections: Background, findings, and Conclusion
Task 1 -3 will be answered under the Finding Section whereas task 4 is answered under the conclusion section. You will be expected to show your calculations. After you convert to binary, annotate the bit with the associated fault.

PART 2 Lab (20 points):
Background
After performing some research, you discover the system requires 3 minutes to warm up before the operation. You perform the test and receive 08043102 Hexadecimal words. From the description below you realize the hexadecimal number “8” is an expected error because the antenna is not attached. The “2” is also expected when the self-test running its fault status is “0”. When the self-test has been completed the fault status returns a “1”.
Task 2:
Convert 08043102 (hexadecimal word) into Binary. Include your calculation and identify the MSB and LSB (5 points)
Use the first tab in the excel sheet “RT Cross Reference” to cross-reference Bit error to the subsystem. Remember a Bit “0” is a no-fault status. write down the fault next to the BIT. (5 points)
Read the “RT description” doc to see if you isolate a fault in a circuit card. If you don’t know what needs to be replaced, you can create a test plan. (5 points)
In one paragraph summarize the failure(s) and provide a brief description of how the loss affects the RT. (5 points)
