Troubleshooting
Instrument Diagnostics
The primary diagnostics for the instrument are accessible through the AWG
application software. The Instrument diagnostics check the basic functionality
of analog and marker output at every power on. The Instrument Diagnostics run
after Windows has booted up and run its own set of system checks. If any failures
occur at power on, a pop-up message indicates that a failure has occurred and
provides an error code:
Diagnostics error codes (See Table 4-6 on page 4-58.)
Calibration error codes (See Table 4-7 on page 4-64.)
Hardware error codes (See Table 4-8 on page 4-73.)
The power-on tests ensure that the hardware is installed and can be accessed
by the software. The tests provide limited diagnostic information, and provide
no performance information.
To run the instrument Diagnostics manually, do these steps:
1. Turn off all other applications.
2. From the menu bar, select System and then select Diagnostics... ; the
Diagnostics dialog box appears. (See Figure 4-29.)
