AWG510 & AWG520 Service Manual 6-1
Maintenance
This section contains the information needed to do periodic and corrective
maintenance on the AWG510 and AWG520 Arbitrary Waveform Generators.
The following subsections are included:
Preparation — Introduction plus general information on preventing damage
to internal modules when doing maintenance.
Inspection and Cleaning — Information and procedures for inspecting the
waveform generator and cleaning its external and internal modules.
Removal and Installation Procedures — Procedures for the removal of
defective modules and replacement of new or repaired modules.
Troubleshooting — Information for isolating failed modules. Included are
instructions for operating the waveform generator’s internal diagnostic
routines and troubleshooting trees. Most of the trees make use of these
internal diagnostic routines to speed fault isolation to a module.
