Performing Service Tasks
The Service menu (under
[Utility] > Service
) lets you perform service-related tasks:
•
•
"To perform hardware self test"
•
"To perform front panel self test"
•
•
"To display oscilloscope information"
•
"To display the user calibration status"
For other information related to oscilloscope maintenance and
service, see:
•
•
"To check warranty and extended services status"
•
•
To perform user calibration
User Calibration performs an internal self-alignment routine to optimize the signal
path in the oscilloscope. The routine uses internally generated signals to optimize
circuits that affect channel sensitivity, offset, and trigger parameters.
User Cal should be performed:
• Every five years or after 10000 hours of operation.
• When the ambient temperature of the oscilloscope is >10 °C different than
when the last User Cal was performed.
• When you want to maximize the measurement accuracy.
Performing User Cal will invalidate your Certificate of Calibration. If NIST (National
Institute of Standards and Technology) traceability is required, perform the
"Performance Verification" procedure in the
Keysight InfiniiVision 1200 X-Series
Oscilloscopes Service Guide
using traceable sources.
