The XMP 2600 enables its user to conduct two types of self-tests: Power Module self-test and main controller’s self-test.

The Power Module Test or Confidence Test result is made out of two bytes. The first byte is the result of the latest performed test, and the second byte is the result of an on-going confidence test of the analog section of the controlling circuits.

The results of the tests can be remotely read using the CONF? <ch> query.

The CONF? <ch> query will return the results of the latest test performed and initiates a run of the Confidence Test.
