Chapter 3: Testing Logic Analyzer Performance
Testing the module using a 16700-series Mainframe
Testing the module using a 16700-series Mainframe
The following sections explain how to test the minimum master-to-master clock
time and minimum eye width.
Use the following instructions to test the module using a 16700-series mainframe.
If you are using a 16900-series mainframe, use the instructions beginning on
page
37.
NOTE: The 16950A module cannot be tested in a 16700-series mainframe. It must
be tested in a 16900-series mainframe.
1 Turn on the logic analysis system.
NOTE: Before testing the performance of the module, warm-up the logic analyzer
and the test equipment for 30 minutes.
a Connect the keyboard and monitor to the rear panel of the logic
analysis mainframe (16700B only).
b Connect the mouse to the rear panel of the mainframe.
c Plug in the power cord to the power connector on the rear panel of the
mainframe.
d Turn on the main power switch on the mainframe front panel.
While the logic analysis system is booting, 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
2 During initialization, check for any failures.
If an error or an interrupt occurs, refer to the Agilent Technologies 16700B-series
Logic Analysis System Service Guide for troubleshooting information. Note that if an
Agilent 16753/54/55/56A module is temporarily installed in a mainframe only to test
the performance of the module, then the mainframe may report that the module will
require an operational accuracy calibration. This is expected, and step 4 in this
procedure will clear this error message.
