Verification Tests
Introduction
The three levels of test procedures described in this chapter are used to
verify that the HP E1340A AFG:
•
is fully functional (Functional Verification)
•
meets selected testable specifications (Operation Verification)
•
meets all testable specifications (Performance Verification)
WARNING
Do not perform any of the following verification tests unless
you are a qualified, service-trained technician and have read
the WARNINGS and CAUTIONS in Chapter 1.
Test Conditions
and Procedures
See Table 1-1 for test equipment requirements. You should complete the
Performance Verification tests at least once a year. For heavy use or severe
operating environments, perform the tests more often.
The verification tests assume that the person performing the tests
understands how to operate the mainframe, the AFG, and specified test
equipment. The test procedures do not specify equipment settings for test
equipment, except in general terms. It is assumed that a qualified,
service-trained technician will select and connect the cables, adapters, and
probes required for the test.
Performance Test
Record
The results of each Performance Verification test may be recorded in
Table 2-7, "Performance Test Record for the HP E1340A." You may make
a photocopy of this form, if desired.
Verification Test
Examples
Each verification test procedure includes an example program that performs
the test. All example programs assume the following configuration:
•
Controller is an HP 9000 Series 200/300 computer
•
Programming language is HP BASIC
•
AFG address is 70910
