Known Issues and Behaviors
The following pages describe known issues and behaviors of the waveform
monitors. Topics are listed in alphabetical order.
3 Gbps Pathogenic Signal
The Level B 3 Gbps pathogenic signal is a combination of two pathological
signals, but is not, itself, pathological. If you need a pathological signal, use
Level A.
Anc Data Inspector
When using a 3 G, Level B signal, the link information in the Anc Data
Inspector display is not reported correctly.
You might see data that you do not need to see if you are viewing data types in
the Anc Data Inspector display with Watchlist enabled while in simultaneous
input mode (SIM).
Unknown ancillary data types are sometimes reported when inputs are
switched. You can clear the unknown data types by pressing the MEAS button
and selecting Reset All Sessions from the Anc Data Display menu.
Audio Board Temperature
Report
The diagnostic log posts a temperature reading for an audio board even though
one may not be installed.
Audio Errors
Audio DSP heartbeat errors may be reported sporadically in the diagnostics
log. The audio monitoring features are not impacted by this behavior. The
instrument does not require any repair if this error is reported sporadically.
When the Audio display is active and the audio input is changed, the displayed
audio scale may not update automatically. Press the FULL button to toggle
the display and update the audio scale.
NOTE.
See
SIM Mode
for audio issues related to SIM mode operation.
