N1010A FlexDCA and 86100A/B/C/D
Firmware Release Notes
• Uses standard Windows Installer to upgrade software
The following features are available only with 86100C mainframe and Option
001 Wide Bandwidth Trigger
• Pattern Lock ("Eyeline?h) trigger. Will display single valued waveforms for
repetitive patterns.
• Auto- detection of pattern parameters. Relieves user of task of entering length and
bit rate manually.
The following features are available with 86100C mainframe with Option 001
and Option 100 Jitter Software
• Added Jitter Mode. This is a fourth mode for the instrument that provides
measurements of timing jitter.
• Separation and display of jitter components. Adds the pull down graphical display
area.
• Save and recall of jitter memory. For use with jitter analysis data.
Defects Fixed
• Improved Touch Screen calibration for 86100C
• Fixed a debug assertion related to 54754A differential reference plane calibration
• Fixed a problem with saving an Instrument setup file on top of an existing setup
file
• Fixed TDR remote command problem: If the right module is set to ON4 and
TDTdest is Channel 3 and you issue the command to turn on both 3 and 4 an
assertion error happens. The exact command was :TDR4:STIM
ON3AND4;RESP3:TDTDest CHANNEL1
• Fixed problem with normalization of 54753A TDR module
• Fixed incorrect differential normalization (risetime of second channel). This was
only broken in revision 3.06.
• Fixed a function that returns whether the TDR stimulus is differential/common
mode or not. The incorrect value was returned if two TDR modules were installed
and the right module was differential or common mode.
• Fixed a problem when using two TDR modules. Previously, when the command
TDR2:STIM ON2 was followed by the command TDR2:STIM OFF, the left module
was correctly turned off. However the right module was then inaccessible.
• Fixed problem where differential TDT cal data was not being saved and recalled
correctly
• Fixed defects that were causing normalization cal data to be invalidated
unnecessarily
• Fixed problem where TDT reference plane was lost when switching between
stimulus channels
• Fixed defect where instrument could hang with the following command sequence
in TDR mode: *rst;*cls;:autoscale;*opc?
• Fixed a problem with repetitive remote loading of instrument setup files
• Fixed a defect in the code that loads TDR/TDT cal data files. TDT data was being
loaded but not fully resolved as valid.
• The :DIGitize command now works correctly with RESPonse<N> parameters. To
digitize differential responses the type of each response must be specified by
turning on the response before executing the :DIGitize command.
Known Issues
• 86119A (Optical Sampling Oscilloscope) is designed to work on software versions
A.03.06 and A.03.05 only.
