74 Agilent E8462A Relay Multiplexer Command Reference
DIAGnostic
The DIAGnostic subsystem controls setting and querying the Multiplexer’s
interrupt line, interrupt timer and checks the state of the bank fuses.

DIAGnostic:FUSE?
DIAGnostic:FUSE? <card_number>
queries the Agilent E8462A module’s fuse
register (0x38) and returns a value from 0 through 15 to indicate the state of each of
four bank fuses.
Parameters
Comments
•
The module’s fuse register identifies good fuses on bits 0, 1, 2 and 3 as noted
in the following table.
•
A good fuse is idicated by the bit being “1”. A “0” bit indicates the associated
banks are not receiving power. Check the fuse and replace if necessary. Check
hardware associated with the no-power banks for shorts.
•
The *TST? command will return < card_number >*100 + 14 for any Agilent
E8462A module that has a bank not receiving power. The DIAG:FUSE?
command can then be used to find out which fuse on the module has the
problem.
Example
DIAG:FUSE? 1 Query the number 1 module’s fuses. If 15
is returned, all fuses are good. If 10 is
returned, the fuses to banks 0-2 and banks
6-8 are open.
