Page 15: Conducting A Self-Test
Conducting a Self-Test Conducting a Self-Test The purpose of this self-test is to verify that the unit functions correctly, in that it can self-calibrate and communicate with the processor controlling it. When the SFP is launched it will initiate a self-calibration which takes a little over 1 minute. Verify that no error is shown in the lower left hand log area. -
Page 16: Conduct M9202A Operational Check (Optional)
Conduct M9202A Operational check (optional) Conduct M9202A Operational check (optional) Requirements for Verification The M9202A is verified by using it to trigger on and visualize a signal from a Function Generator. The trigger must be stable and the signal frequency and amplitude must correspond to that set on the generator. Required Hardware To verify that the module works requires an external signal source which will be sent to both the input and the trigger. -

Conduct M9202A Operational check (optional) Figure 6 - SFP showing measured waveform If a Problem is Found 1. Verify that you have set all configuration settings as shown above. 2. Verify that the RF Generator is ON and producing the desired signals at the end of the BNC cables. This can be done with an oscilloscope. - Page 18 The Modular Tangram www.agilent.com www.agilent.com/find/modular The four-sided geometric symbol that appears in Agilent modular product literature is called a tangram. The goal of this seven-piece www.agilent.com/find/digitizers puzzle is to create shapes—from simple to complex. As with a tangram, the possibilities may seem infinite as you begin to create For more information on Agilent Technologies' products, a new test system.
