Page 20: Memory Declassification Procedure
General Information Memory Declassification Procedure Memory Declassification Procedure Some test equipment users have a need to “declassify” or “sanitize” their instruments for security purposes. This involves following a procedure that clears all user data from the instrument´s memory. The result is a sanitized instrument that can be removed from a secure area without any chance of classified data being recovered from it.

Page 42: Adjustments Introduction
Adjustments Introduction Introduction This chapter provides adjustment procedures for the Agilent 86100A/B/C Infiniium DCA Main- frame. Equipment required for individual adjustments is listed in the adjustment descriptions in this chapter. Equipment satisfying the critical specifications listed may be substituted for the rec- ommended model.
Page 43: Timebase Adjustment
Adjustments Timebase Adjustment Timebase Adjustment The frequency of the 250 MHz oscillator is adjusted with a variable capacitor located on the A13 Acquisition Assembly. The adjustment capacitor can be accessed from a hole in the bottom of the instrument cover. The adjustment is made so that one cycle of the 250 MHz oscillator matches the time of the 4 ns ramp.
Page 44 Adjustments Timebase Adjustment C A U T I O N Before performing this procedure, you must have firmware revision A.02.00 or higher installed in the Agilent 86100A/B. Refer to the Agilent website (www.agilent.com/comms/DCA) for instructions on obtaining the latest firmware revision). Trying to adjust the mainframe timebase with older firmware will cause timebase accuracy failure.
Page 45 Adjustments Timebase Adjustment 11 Connect equipment as shown in Figure 3-1. a Connect the synthesized CW generator’s 10 MHz OUT to the timing generator’s timebase EX- TERNAL INPUT. b Connect the 2000 ps transition time converter to the timing generator’s CHANNEL 2 output. c Connect the 2000 ps transition time converter to the DCA front panel trigger input, using the cable and adapters.

If it is necessary to adjust the tuning capacitor: a Turn the DCA on it’s side to locate the hole plug at the bottom. See Figure 3-3.
Page 47 Adjustments Timebase Adjustment C A U T I O N Be very gentle while adjusting the capacitor as it is fragile. c Make the adjustment then pull the adjustment tool away. Be sure to check the readings; they may have changed. N O T E After making the adjustment, place the DCA in the normal operation position and check to see that the readings are the same.
