Keysight P9241/42/43A Oscilloscopes Startup Guide

29

 

Hardware Self Test performs a series of internal procedures to verify that the 

oscilloscope is operating properly. Successfully passing Hardware Self Test does 

not guarantee 100% of the oscilloscope's functionality. Hardware Self Test is 

designed to provide an 80% confidence level that the oscilloscope is operating 

properly.

If the Hardware

Self Test fails

See: 

"Return an Instrument for Service" 

on page 12

If there are communications problems

If you are unable to communicate with the P924xA, verify that the following 

installations are correct:
• Keysight IO Libraries Suite
• P924xA SFP programs
• USB oscilloscope drivers
• USB cable connections to the controller PC
