Chapter 1: Agilent Technologies 16700A/B-Series Logic Analysis System
The System Administration Tools
selected, each individual board or module lists a set of its own
individual tests. Some measurement modules are composed of multiple
cards where one card is called the master and the others are called
expanders. Self tests for a multiple card set are always tested through
the master card. Test results for the expander cards will track results
for the master card. In some cases, the self tests can identify a problem
to either an expander or master card. In this case, the failure counts
shown on an expander card may differ from those shown for a master
card.
Test Options
Test options are set from the Options pulldown in the menu bar. They
are provided only as a convenience to the user. They are intended for
factory use only.
User Action Required
When running "All Tests", some of the tests may have a test result of
"Not executed". In some cases, this message is because the test does
not apply to the current hardware configuration. In other cases, it
indicates the test requires some type of user action. These tests should
be individually selected, and when user action is required, a dialog will
appear to direct the user. The tests that require user action are listed
below.
CPU Board
• Floppy Drive Test: A DOS formatted floppy must be in the drive.
• External SCSI Test: A powered-up CD-ROM drive must be on the bus.
HP16517A Timing Module
• Skew Adjust: Not a test; used for calibration.
HP16522A Stimulus Module
• Output Stimulus Vectors: Not a test; provides continuous signal output.
HP16534A Scope Module
• ADC Test: There must be no stimulus on the scope inputs.
