Testing Performance
The procedures in this section test measurement performance using performance
specifications.
Testing Interval
The performance test procedures may be performed for incoming inspection of the
oscilloscope and should be performed periodically thereafter to ensure and maintain
peak performance. The recommended test interval is yearly or every 2,000 hours of
operation.
See Also See Chapter 4, “Calibrating and Adjusting,” for information about the calibration cycle.
Equipment Required
Equipment required for each test is listed in the test. Any equipment satisfying the
critical specifications listed may be substituted for the recommended model. The
procedures are based on the model or part number recommended.
Self-Test Verification
To verify system operation with high confidence, without the test equipment and time
required for performance tests, perform the self-tests. These internal tests verify many
functions of the oscilloscope.
To run the self-tests, enable the graphical interface, then select Self Test from the
Utilities menu. The Self Test drop down list box allows you to select oscilloscope Self
Tests, Key and Knob Test, or LED Test. A message is displayed with the instruction to
remove all inputs to the oscilloscope. During execution of the self-tests, the oscilloscope
displays diagnostic messages indicating the status of each test.
If one of the self-tests fails,
FAILED is displayed rather than PASSED, and a 16-bit
diagnostic code is displayed. This code is used by factory service personnel when
troubleshooting the main assembly. Failure of a self-test indicates an assembly failure.
The assembly must be replaced before you attempt performance verification. For more
troubleshooting information, refer to see “Troubleshooting” on page 71.
Test Record
You can record the results of the performance tests in the Performance Test Record
provided at the end of this chapter. The Performance Test Record lists the performance
tests and provides an area to mark test results. You can use the results recorded at
incoming inspection for later comparisons during periodic maintenance,
troubleshooting, and after repairs or adjustments.
Operating Hints
Some knowledge of operating the oscilloscope is helpful; however, these procedures are
written so that little experience is necessary. The following two hints will speed progress
Test Interval Dependencies
The test interval depends on frequency and severity of use and the environmental conditions under which
the oscilloscope is used. In recording test results, you may find that the test interval could be shortened
or lengthened; however, such a decision should be based on substantial quantitative data.
