Perform Measurement System Verification

The measurement system verification verifies the E5023A’s basic measurement functions

through the write and read signal measurements using the verification fixture. This

verification does not verify the head amplifier.

Required Equipment

The following equipment is required to perform the write portion and read portion

verification:

• P/N E5023-65600 Verification Kit (commercial HA-type)

or P/N E5023-65601 Verification Kit (UHA-type)

• Oscilloscope (This oscilloscope is used to perform the write portion verification.

E5023A option 103 oscilloscope can be used.)

• Verification Kit Setup Files (Those files are provided through the internal web site of

Agilent Technologies’ Component Test Division - Kobe. Contact your nearest service

center to obtain those files.)

Table 2-6 and Table 2-7 show the contents of P/N E5023-65600 and P/N E5023-65601.

NOTE These verification kits are designed as service tools for verifying the basic operations

(connectivity, etc.) of the Agilent E5023A Hard Disk Read/Write Test System during its

installation, trouble isolation, or repair work. Use for other purposes (such as a

measurement performance evaluation) is not supported.

You must follow the procedure descried in this manual when you use these verification kits.

Incorrect use is dangerous and may cause a system trouble or spinstand crash.

These verification kits should be used only by qualified personnel who took Agilent’s

official service training.

After completing the verification, the setup files you placed in the folders should be deleted.

You can order required verification parts individually or use required parts of your system

temporarily (if they are not used during the verification).
