Test Record
Results of the performance test may be tabulated on the Test Record
provided at the end of the test procedures. It is recommended that you
fill out the Test Record and refer to it while doing the test. Since the
test limits and setup information are printed on the Test Record for
easy reference, the record can also be used as an abbreviated test
procedure (if you are already familiar with the test procedures). The
Test Record can also be used as a permanent record and may be
reproduced without written permission from Agilent Technologies.
Test Failure
If the Agilent 81630B/4B/5B/6B/7B fails any performance test, return
the instrument to the nearest Agilent TechnologiesSales/Service Office
for repair.
Instrument Specification
Specifications are the performance characteristics of the instrument
that is certified. These specifications, listed in
, are the performance standards or limits against which the
Agilent 81630B/4B/5B/6B/7B can be tested.
also lists some supplemental characteristics of the Agilent
81630B/4B/5A/6B/7B. Supplemental characteristics should be
considered as additional information.
Any changes in the specifications due to manufacturing changes,
design, or traceability to the National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST), will be covered in a manual change supplement, or
revised manual. Such specifications supercede any that were
previously published.
Performance Test Procedures
The performance test given in this section includes the Accuracy Test,
