  • Page 16: Adjustments Introduction

    Adjustments Introduction This chapter describes the adjustments required to ensure the 4349B is within its published speci cations after it has been repaired, or when it fails the performance tests. The adjustments should be performed along with periodic maintenance to keep the 4349B in optimum operating condition.
  • Page 17: Adjustment Tools

    There are no EEPROM write protect switches in the 4349B. Related Adjustments There are four adjustments for the standard 4349B, and two adjustments for the 4349B with Option 001. Table 2-1 lists the adjustments that must be performed if an assembly has been replaced.
  • Page 18: Adjustment Program

    The adjustment program listed in Table 1-1 is required for the adjustments. Using the program, the computer controls the 4349B and the other pieces of equipment to obtain the adjustment data, and stores the data in the 4349B's internal EEPROM, A2U1.
  • Page 19: Program Installation

    Make sure that the correct line frequency (50 or 60Hz) has been selected in the Note \UUT: 4349B" window preceding the Main Menu. This selection will improve the adjustment data accuracy. Program Installation The adjustment program must be installed in the computer using the following procedures.
  • Page 20: Program Execution

    If the adjustments being performed follow right after EEPROM replacement, Note change switch A2SW1-1 to \CLOSE", so that the 4349B will ignore the self test errors at power-on. (Return the switch to the \OPEN" position when the adjustments have been completed.) Refer to Figure B-1 for the switch location.
