Testing Performance
Self-Tests
The self- tests listed in this chapter check the functional
operation of the mainframe. Self- tests for the optional
modules installed in the frames are listed in the individual
module
Service Guides .
There are two types of self- tests: self- tests that automatically
run at powerup, and self- tests that you select on the screen.
For descriptions of the tests, refer to
Chapter 8 , “Theory of
Operation.”
Perform the self- tests as an acceptance test when receiving
the logic analysis system or when the logic analysis system
is repaired.
If a test fails, refer to Chapter 5 , “Troubleshooting.”
Test Interval
There is no recommended test interval for the 16901A logic
analysis system mainframe. However, each of the supported
modules has performance verification tests and therefore
require a periodic verification of specifications. Refer to the
Service Guides of the individual modules for more
information.
