Checks
Problems with the sequence generator circuits can be detected if the
Model 3151/3151A accepts word serial commands and responds
correctly to word serial queries, but fails to output sequences or
bursts. If there is a problem with the sequence generator circuits,
proceed with the checkout procedure given in Table 5-4.
Before starting the following procedure, reset the Model 3151/3151A
to the factory default using the *RST command. Configure the Model
3151/3151A to sequenced output mode and load three different
waveforms - 100 points long, to segments 1, 2, and 3, respectively.
Program each step to repeat once. Use the following commands
after loading the waveforms.
Remote Commands:
:FUNC:MODE SEQ
:SEQ:DEF 1,1
:SEQ:DEF 2,1
:SEQ:DEF 3,1
:OUTP ON
