N1010A FlexDCA and 86100A/B/C/D
Firmware Release Notes
General Defects Fixed
• For programming commands that have discrete parameters, (for example,
:ACQuire:SMOothing) the :DEFault, :VSET, :NEXT, and :PREV child commands are
no longer documented.
• For programming commands that have numerical values, the :DEFault, :MINimum,
and :MAXimum child commands are no longer documented.
• Added programming topics for :SOURce, :LOCation, :STATus, and :STATus:REASon
child commands to the measurement commands within the :MEASure subsystem.
Known Issues
• The remote SCPI interface is limited to the HiSLIP, Telnet, and Sockets protocols
when running on a 64- bit Windows OS. To make use of this functionality, the
program "Agilent.N1000.x86.exe" needs to be launched instead of the default
"Agilent.N1000.exe".
A.01.61 Release Notes, February, 2012
(Differences from Release A.01.60)
General Comments
• Connecting to a remote instrument requires 86100C/D firmware A.10.60 or later.
New Feature List
• Added an “Auto Scale” button to top of the main GUI.
General Defects Fixed
• Resolved a defect that prevented Jitter Mode measurements if SIRC and Precision
Timebase were active.
• Fixed a defect that would cause jitter mode to poorly auto scale differential signals
causing Amplitude Analysis measurements to be made at the wrong time.
• Extended the "Transfer Basic" option of FlexDCA to bring over the following
categories of settings from the remote instrument:
• Channel configuration (including bandwidth, wavelength, and reference filter).
• Timebase scale configuration.
•Trigger source and bandwidth configuration.
• Pattern Lock configuration.
• Precision Timebase configuration.
• Clock Recovery configuration (86108A and 83496A/B).
• Differential signal (if the remote instrument has a subtract math function on a
differential pair).
• Fixed a defect that would cause the results of "Transfer Basic" to vary based on
the prior configuration.
• Resolved a number of usability issues when performing calibrations of the 86108A.
• The "Relock" dialog will no longer come up when the user is instructed to dis-
able signals as part of the calibration.
• At the end of calibration, the user is instructed to reconnect signals, clock re-
covery is re- locked, and precision timebase is synchronized automatically.
• Resolved a defect that would cause clock recovery modules to have the wrong loop
bandwidth when defining loop bandwidth as a rate divisor.
Known Issues
• The remote SCPI interface is limited to the HiSLIP, Telnet, and Sockets protocols
when running on a 64- bit Windows OS. To make use of this functionality, the
