The primary diagnostics for the instrument are the power-on diagnostics and the
instrument diagnostics, as described in the following paragraphs.
The power-on diagnostics check the basic functionality of the instrument at every
power on. If any failures occur at power on, the screen displays the calibration
and diagnostics property page.
The power-on tests verify that hardware is installed and can be accessed by the
software. The tests provide limited diagnostic information. They do not provide
any performance information.
The power on tests check the generic hardware including the keyboard, mouse,
memory, CPU, and associated peripherals. The interrupt lines and trigger lines
are also checked.
The instrument diagnostics provide more extensive tests than the power-on
diagnostics. The instrument executes a set of internal diagnostics at every
power-up. The results can be viewed from the Utilities > Diagnostics dialog.
