FS740 Tech Support

If you are having problems with your FS740 you can call us at (408)744-9040 and speak with an engineer, or email us using our technical support request form. If you wish to send the instrument back to SRS for service click here.

If you wish to try and fix the problem yourself, the user manual may be useful, and the following troubleshooting guide may be helpful too.

Troubleshooting Guide

1) Instrument is unresponsive to front-panel button presses

Try a power-up reset. Unplug the instrument, then while holding down the CONFIG  key in the SYSTEMS section of the front panel, plug the instrument back into the AC line. After two seconds release the CONFIG key. If this doesn't correct the problem the instrument will need to come back to SRS for service. Click here to get an RMA number.
