Instrument Display
The Instrument Display shows key information about the operation of the instrument. On
bootup, the messages in the Instrument Display cycle in a predictable and recognizable pattern.
This pattern is disrupted if the F6300 Instrument fails its internal diagnostic test. The F6300
performs a set of internal diagnostics to check the integrity of the system's memory, data, and
communication paths. It also checks the integrity of all the system modules. After a successful
bootup, the F6300 Instrument Display shows the following information:
• CPU serial number
• Firmware revision currently installed
• Instrument’s IP address for purposes of network communications
During normal operation, the Instrument Display shows source names and the layout of the
sources. When any source is on or enabled, it shows the amplitude and phase angle of the
source for up to six sources.
NOTE When a source is enabled, the source label uses a lower case identifier (i.e., i1, i2, and i3).
When any source is on, the source label uses an upper case identifier (i.e., I1, I2, and I3.)
Current Sources
The F6300 provides six 150 VA current sources, which can be combined to achieve more power.
Also, three 150 VA current sources can be combined to form a 450 VA source.
For source selection rules and examples of different test setups, see Appendix C ”Source
Configurations”.
WARNING The high intensity yellow LED flashes when or any output source is on or enabled to indicate
the potential for dangerous or fatal voltages.
