Testing Performance 3
16900A, 16902A, and 16903A Service Guide 21
To perform the power-up tests
The logic analysis system automatically performs power-up
tests when you apply power to the instrument. Any errors
are reported in the boot dialogue. Serious errors will
interrupt the boot process.
The power- up tests are designed to complement the
instrument on- line Self- Tests. Tests that are performed
during powerup are not repeated in the Self-Tests.
A monitor (16900A only), keyboard and mouse must be
connected to the mainframe to observe the results of the
power- up tests.
1 Exit all logic analysis sessions.
2 Press the power switch for about 1 second and release,
wait for the the unit to power off.
3 After a few seconds, turn the power switch back on.
Observe the boot dialogue for the following:
• Ensure all of the installed memory is recognized
• Any error messages
• Interrupt of the boot process with or without error
message
A complete transcript of the boot dialogue is in chapter 8,
"Theory of Operation."
4 During initialization, check for any failures.
If an error or an interrupt occurs, refer to Chapter 5,
“Troubleshooting.”
