Checking the 8510C

85101C Functional Check

Does the analyzer display any internal self-test failure on the self-test status LEDs or 
display? If not, the instrument passed the internal self tests, and functions fully. If a 
self-test fails, or a running error is displayed, refer to the Agilent Technologies 8510C 
On-Site Service Manual
.

85102 Functional Check

Use these procedures to check that the LO phase lock-out and trigger-in are functioning 
properly.

1. Turn both the 8510 and the source off (three line switches).

2. On the 85102:

a. From the rear panel, remove the test-set interface cable.

b. Plug the service adapter (supplied with the upgrade package) into J1 Test Set 

Interconnect (the multi-pin rear-panel connector).

c. Connect the BNC end of the service adapter to the rear-panel 20 MHz output.

d. Connect the ANALOG ± 10V BNC to the SWEEP IN 0-10V BNC (failure to do this 

causes an error).

3. Turn on the 8510, and ignore the system bus address error.
