Chapter 3: Testing Performance
To Perform the Self-tests
Perform the self-tests
The self-tests verify the correct operation of the logic analysis system and the
installed 16740/41/42A module. Self-tests can be performed all at once or one at a
time. While testing the performance of the logic analysis system, run the self-tests
all at once.
1 Launch the Self-Tests.
a In the System window, click on System Admin.
b Under the Admin tab, click on Self-Test. . .
c In the query pop-up, select Yes to exit the current session.
The Self-Test closes down the current session because the test algorithms leave the
system in an unknown state. Re-launching a session at the end of the tests will ensure
the system is properly initialized.
2 In the Self-Test window select Test All.
When the tests are finished, the Status will change to TEST passed or TEST
failed. You can find detailed information about the test results in the Status
Message field of the Self-Test window.
The System CPU Board test returns Untested because the CPU tests require user
action. To test the CPU Board, select CPU Board, then select each test
individually.
3 Select Quit to exit the Test menu.
4 In the Session Manager, select Start Session to re-launch a logic analysis
session.
