Operator Maintenance

This section describes how to install new revisions of test set firmware.

It also shows you how to replace the power line fuse and clean the test

set

Firmware Download

The PC interface and test set firmware revisions are matched. To

install new test set firmware you must first install the new revision of

PC interface software. To download new firmware the test set serial

port and the supplied serial cable are used. You also need to run the PC

interface in Debug mode.

Updated PC interface software and test set firmware can be obtained

from the URL shown in the

About

page of the E1852B PC interface.

Use this URL to access the E1852B Software home page and follow the

displayed instructions to download and install the required files.

N O T E

The Error LED turns on during the firmware download procedure. A

problem is indicated only if the LED remains lit after the test set has

been restarted.
