    What to do if the EXFO IQS-600 controller unit does not detect IQS modules?
    • A
      Aaron LindseyAug 15, 2025
      If the controller unit of your EXFO Test Equipment isn't detecting the IQS modules in your expansion unit, first, ensure that the expansion unit is turned on. Next, verify that the modules are correctly inserted into the expansion unit, remembering to turn off the unit before doing so. Also, check that the IQS interface cable is properly connected between the expansion unit and the main unit. Finally, confirm that the modules are compatible with high-speed units if your expansion unit has 'HS' inscribed on its front panel; contact the technical support team for a complete list of supported modules.

    How to fix EXFO IQS-600 IQS-600 module that does not turn on?

      If your EXFO Test Equipment's IQS-600 module won't turn on, start by checking the AC power cord connection and then power the unit back on. If that doesn't work, ensure the main power switch is in the 'On' position. If the AC current has been interrupted, press the front On/Off button twice to turn the unit on. If none of these steps work, the fuse may be blown, in which case you should contact EXFO.

      Timothy DavisAug 21, 2025
      If you get an error message on your EXFO Test Equipment indicating that you must insert your high-speed module into a high-speed unit, even though it already is, the units might not be chained in the correct order. Make sure all high-speed units are connected before any standard units. Also, ensure that the high-speed module is inserted into one of the first three high-speed units.

      If the standard module inserted into your high-speed controller or expansion unit of EXFO Test Equipment is not detected, it is probably not compatible with high-speed units (bearing the 'HS' inscription on their front panels). Ensure that the module is compatible with high-speed units. For a complete list of supported modules, contact the technical support team.

    Why are SCPI commands not displayed in EXFO IQS-600 IC SCPI Monitoring window?
    • M
      moralesedwardSep 3, 2025
      If SCPI commands are not displayed in the IC SCPI Monitoring window of your EXFO Test Equipment, it could be because communication has not been established from this window. Establish a connection by clicking the Connect to IC button. Also, ensure that communication has been established on the GPIB or Ethernet port by verifying that all cables are properly connected, the Remote option is selected, and all parameters are properly set.
