Performance Test Interval - Keysight 9000 Series Service Manual

This section documents performance test procedures. Performance verification for the products covered
by this manual consists of three main steps:
• Performing the internal product self-tests to ensure that the measurement system is functioning
properly
• Calibrating the product
• Testing the product to ensure that it is performing to specification

Performance Test Interval

The procedures in this section may be performed for incoming inspection and should be performed
periodically to verify that the oscilloscope is operating within specification. The recommended test
interval is once per year or after 2000 hours of operation. Performance should also be tested after repairs
or major upgrades.
Performance Test Record
A test record form is provided at the end of this section. This record lists performance tests, test limits
and provides space to record test results.
Test Order
The tests in this section may be performed in any order desired. However, it is recommended to conduct
the tests in the order presented in this manual as this represents an incremental approach to performance
verification. This may be useful if you are attempting to troubleshoot a suspected problem.
Test Equipment
Lists of equipment needed to conduct each test are provided for each test procedure. The procedures are
written to minimize the number and types of test equipment and accessories required. The test equipment
in these lists are ones that are currently available for sale by Keysight at the time of writing this document.
In some cases, the test procedures use features specific to the test equipment in the recommended
equipment list. However, with some modification to the test procedures, equipment, cables and
accessories that satisfy the critical specifications in these lists may be substituted for the recommended
models with some modification to the test procedures.
