Memory Initialization Utilities
The PSA Memory Initialization Utilities encompass two functions. One utility resets the
statistics (attenuator actuations, 50 MHz calibrator actuations, temperature ranges, hours
of operation, etc.). The other writes the latest default calibration constants into the
memory of a particular board assembly. This is needed since one part number board
assembly is used in several model numbers, and certain model numbers require different
default calibration constants.
Utilities are selected the same way as performance tests and adjustments.
Utility 1: Modification of Hardware Statistical Data
Utility 1 resets the statistical data (attenuator actuations, 50 MHz calibrator switches,
hours of operation, etc.) on the A12 assembly. This statistical information is viewed on
the analyzer screen when you press: System, More, Show System. It is to be used to
reset one of the fields for troubleshooting, or due to an assembly replacement. For
example, the number of preamplifier switch actuations will need to be reset to zero if the
preamplifier is replaced.
When used: After replacing either of the attenuators or the preamp, or if you want to reset
the temperature extremes the instrument encounters or the auto align Off time.
The utility will:
