84 X-Series Signal Analyzers Getting Started and Troubleshooting Guide
Troubleshooting
Check the Basics
Check the Basics
— Is there power at the receptacle?
— Is the analyzer turned on? Check to see if the green LED beside the power
switch is on. Also, listen for internal fan noise to determine if the analyzer
cooling fans are running.
— If other equipment, cables, and connectors are being used with your signal
analyzer, make sure they are connected properly and operating correctly.
If the analyzer cannot completely load or run the operating system, or the
instrument application is not successfully launched, the problem could be a
corrupt disk drive. If the analyzer gets far enough along in the boot process
to run the "Instrument Recovery System", perform the “Disk Drive Recovery
Process” as described on page 60.
— Is the Measurement Application running? If not, there is a software launch
shortcut/icon on the desktop.
— Does the instrument application have the focus? If not, move focus to the
application with Alt-Tab.
— Review the measurement procedures being performed when the problem
first appeared. Are all of the settings correct?
— If the analyzer is not functioning as expected, return the analyzer to a
known state by pressing Mode Preset.
— Is the measurement being performed, and the results that are expected,
within the specifications and capabilities of the analyzer?
Refer to the specifications guide for your analyzer.
