Firmware Release Notes
disabling it after it has been dismissed.
• If a vertical calibration fails and the module is removed before dismissing the Message Box
an illegal operation error occurs. The Fix is to check for the presence of the module before
reading from it.
• Timebase resolution changed from 3 digits to 4, giving the same behavior as the 83480A.
• Remotely invoking an extinction ratio cal, where a vertical cal is required, brings up a
dialog box that cannot be cleared. The dialog box is replaced with a status message in the
status bar.
• Remotely sending the TEDGE command caused various problems. The fix is to only allow
TEDGE? query and to reject TEDGE command.
• Remotely selecting vertical markers from a time waveform to a versus waveform caused a
"data out of range" error message; this has been fixed.
• Invalid dates remotely sent to the instrument cause several problems, which are now
resolved.
