Re: TECH: Universal Boards on the Fluke 9010A

<x-flowed>
The FLuke checks the voltage at the CPU with a comparator in the pod, and
if the UUT voltage is low it will show that error. You need to verify the
socket for the CPU, perhaps a bad +5 or gnd pin...If you can adjust the
5VDC, try running it up a bit...
