Verifying Performance

Using the Compatibility Switch for the HP/Agilent 8922F/H or M/S

To Configure the GPIB Addresses

1)With the program loaded, type ``EDIT DEFAULT_ADDRESS'', press ENTER.

2)Modify each line to indicate the proper instrument address (700-730).

It is now possible to re-store the program as "PT_8922" or store it under a different name.

To Run the Program

1)Type ``RUN'', press ENTER.

2)Follow the directions as they appear on the screen.

Notes on Running the Program.

The first screen which appears is the GPIB status of each piece of test equipment that is supported. It is only necessary to have the instruments responding that will be used in each particular test. Make certain that each instrument you will be using is responding at the proper address. Duplicate addresses may make an instrument appear to be responding but this is not allowed. Press "I" (for Ignore) to continue past this screen.

The second screen prompts you for the instrument model. If you have disk 08922-10006, select HP 8922G (for HP/Agilent 8922H/M performance testing) or HP 8922E (for HP/Agilent 8922F/S performance testing). The third screen which will appear is the main Performance Tests selection menu. Three options are available on this screen:

❒Select the performance test to run, remember the test instruments and UUT must be responding over GPIB.

❒Turn the printer function ON or OFF. If the printer function is turned on it must be responding over GPIB or the program will lock up.

❒Exit from the program.

Press the key corresponding to the option that you would like to perform.

The other screens that appear are connection instructions, error messages and output results.
