Operating Characteristics
Built in Self-Test and Calibration Routines Internal self-test
capabilities provide a 90% confidence the oscilloscope is operating
properly. External test procedures in the Service Guide provide a 100%
confidence. Self-calibration routines, also selected through the
front-panel "utility" menu, ensure that the instrument is operating with
its greatest accuracy and require no external test equipment.
Low Cost of Ownership The oscilloscope includes a standard three
year, return to HP warranty.
To minimize the repair and calibration times, the oscilloscope was designed
with only one main assembly adjustment per channel. In addition,
Hewlett-Packard’s board exchange program assures economical and timely
repair of units, reducing the cost of ownership.
Reliability Estimated mean time between failures (MTBF) for this
oscilloscope is 30,000 hours. MTBF is computed using an instrument
usage of 2,000 hours per year.
