PERFORMANCE TESTS
POWER-ON TEST 4-3.
This performance test is the built-in self-test that performs a simple functional check of
the instrument.
REQUIREMENT:
The signal generator successfully passes the self-test.
REMARKS:
The test is begun each time the signal generator is turned on. Press any of the
FUNCTION keys or the key to abort the test.
PROCEDURE:
1. Start the test with the power off.
2. Press the POWER button on.
The signal generator automatically starts the self-tests, which include lighting all
indicators and every segment of the display. This test takes 5 seconds.
If the instrument fails any of the self-tests, the results are shown in the four display
fields. See Appendix E for the interpretation of the test failure codes.
If the signal generator passes the self-test, it is automatically returned to the default
instrument state.
