Test Failure
If the HP8167A/8D/8E/8F fails any performance test, return the instrument to
the nearest Hewlett-Packard Sales/Service Oce for repair.
Instrument Specication
Specications are the performance characteristics of the instrument which
are certied. These specications, listed in Appendix C, are the performance
standards or limits against which the HP 8167A/8D/8E/8F can be tested.
The specications also list some supplemental characteristics of the HP
8167A/8D/8E/8F. Supplemental characteristics should be considered as
additional information.
Any changes in the specications due to manufacturing changes
, design, or
traceability to the National Institute of Standards and T
echnology (NIST), will be
covered in a manual change supplement, or revised manual. Such specications
supercede any that were previously published.
General

instruments to warm up until STABILIZING is no longer shown
on the display.
Wavelength Tests
Connect the TLS (DUT) to the Wavelength Meter as shown in Figure D-1.
Note
The connector housings for the patchcord cannot be screwed
fully onto the wavelength meter.
This does not aect the wavelength measurements.
