Reloading the X-Series Software
Reloading the X-Series Software
The X-Series software contains all the required components for the signal analyzer
application as well as all software options. If the X-Series software has become
corrupt the Windows XP operating system will boot but the X-Series software
application will fail to start. In these cases go to Chapter 16 , “Instrument
Software,” for information on how to update the X-Series software. This procedure
will not affect the instrument’s calibration or user files.
If this does not resolve the boot issue, or the instrument never boots the Windows
XP operating system proceed to the Hard Drive Recovery Process.
