Usage:
Choose power supply method: Based on the environment and actual needs, if you are indoors and close to devices such as computers and power sockets, prioritize the TYPE-C data cable power supply method. Connect one end of the TYPE-C power cord to the TYPE-C interface of the tester, and the other end to a suitable power device, such as the USB interface of a computer or the TYPE-C output port of a mobile phone charger. Then turn the power selection switch to the TYPE-C power mode; If in an emergency situation where there is no external power source in outdoor mobile scenes, use a 3.6V button battery for power supply. Open the battery holder cover, place the button battery in the correct positive and negative directions into the battery holder, ensure that the battery is installed firmly, and then turn the power selection switch to the button battery power supply position.
Insert memory module: Gently open the DDR4 memory module slot buckle on the tester, align the gold finger of the desktop DDR4 memory module to be tested with the slot, and insert slowly and steadily, paying attention to the correct insertion direction to avoid forcefully inserting and damaging the gold finger. Until the memory module is fully inserted and the buckle automatically tightens, ensure that the memory module is tightly connected to the slot to ensure the accuracy of the test results. To test two memory modules simultaneously, repeat this step and insert the other memory module into another slot.
Start test: After inserting the memory module and preparing the power supply, press the independent test switch, and the tester will immediately start the detection process. At this time, pay close attention to the illumination of the LED bead array. Under normal circumstances, all LED chips corresponding to the normal pins of the memory module should light up steadily; If a flashing light bead is found, it indicates that there is a poor contact problem with the corresponding memory module's gold finger. Further inspection is needed to check whether the gold finger is oxidized and whether there are dust or foreign objects in the slot; If a certain LED bead does not light up, it indicates that there may be a hardware open circuit fault, such as severe wear of the gold finger contacts, PCB board breakage, etc. Further disassembly and inspection of the memory module is required.
Result judgment and subsequent processing: According to the LED indicator, if all the pins corresponding to the memory module are lit up normally, it indicates that the basic function of the memory module is normal; If there are abnormal situations such as flashing or not lighting up of the LED, record the corresponding pin number of the abnormal LED, and based on the known DDR4 memory module circuit principle and common fault causes, preliminarily determine the fault type, such as poor contact, open circuit fault, etc. For poor contact faults, you can try using an eraser to gently wipe the gold fingers of the memory module, remove the oxide layer, and then reinsert for testing; For open circuit faults, it is necessary to further inspect the wear of the gold finger contacts, check for damage, and check if the PCB is disconnected. If necessary, replace the memory module.
