To test the cables
Connect and configure the logic analyzer to test other pods
1 Disconnect all flying lead probes from the 2 x 9 test fixtures.
2 Connect the second E5383A Flying Lead Probe set to the next pod to be
tested.
NOTE:
In this example the pod to be tested will be Pod 2.
3 Connect the even bits of Pod 2 to the 2 x 9 test fixture at the pulse
generator’s OUTPUT 2.
4 Connect the odd bits of Pod 2 to the 2 x 9 test fixture at the pulse
generator’s OUTPUT 2.
5 If the pod to be tested (Pod 2 in this example) has a clock bit, connect it to
the 2 x 9 test fixture at the pulse generator’s OUTPUT 2.
NOTE:
Pods 5 and 6 of the 16910A logic analyzer do not have clock bits. All others
do.
6 Connect the clock bit from Pod 1 to the 2 x 9 test fixture at the pulse
generator’s OUTPUT 2.
7 In the Analyzer Setup window, Buses/Signals tab, un-assign all channels of
Pod 1.
8 Assign all channels of the pod to be tested. If the pod to be tested has a
clock, then assign it too (place a check mark in the box under the channel
name).
9 Select the Sampling tab.
10 Select the Sampling Positions button.
