Prerequisites
The tests in this section provide confirmation of performance and functionality
The following requirements and c onditions must be met:
The cabinet must be installed.
The AWG must have been last adjusted at an ambient temperature between
+20 °C and +30 ° C, must have been operating for a warm-up period of at
least 20 minutes, and must be operating at an ambient temperatures between
+10 °C and +40 °C.
You must have performed and passed the procedure Diagnostics and
Calibration, and the procedure Functional Tests.
Required equipment
The following table lists the test equipment required to perform the performance
verification procedures. The table identifies examples of recommended equipment
and lists the required p recision where applicable. If you substitute other test
equipment for the listed examples, the equipment must meet or exceed the listed
tolerances.
