ESG Family Signal Generators

Agilent Technologies ESG Family Feature Releases

If your ESG signal generator is older than the most current release date, and it hasn’t been upgraded, you are missing recently released features. Updating the firmware in your ESG lets you take advantage of feature enhancements and improvements. Hardware has also been enhanced periodically, to add capability or improve performance, based on customer requests.

New features may be as simple as a free firmware download (www.agilent.com/find/esg) or may also require upgrading ESG hardware (call Agilent Technologies).
