8.3 TSVP self-test
As part of the TSVP self test, an extensive test of the R&S TS-PSU12 module is per-
formed and an exhaustive protocol is generated. This is done with the “Self-Test Sup-
port Library”.
The R&S TS-PSAM analog stimulus and measurement module is used as a measure-
ment unit in the TSVP self-test. The functionality of the modules in the system is
ensured by measurements via the analog bus.
First the global analog bus and then the local analog bus are tested for valid voltages.
These voltages could possibly come from an outside source, for example through sour-
ces that are connected. After an isolation measurement between the buses, all the
relays (coupling, matrix, multiplexer, sense relays) are tested. The voltage and current
measurements of the sources and PSU-AC/DC converter are made. The voltage and
current section are tested for the measurement unit. Finally triggering via PXI lines is
tested.
You can find information about starting the self-test and the order of required work
steps as well as a detailed description of parameters and sequences that are tested in
the R&S CompactTSVP / R&S Power TSVP Service Manual.
