AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual B-7
Prerequisites
The tests in this section comprise an extensive, valid confirmation of performance
and functionality when the following requirements are met:
The cabinet must be installed on the instrument.
You must have performed and passed the procedures under Self Tests, found
on page B-2.
The waveform generator must have been recently adjusted at an ambient
temperature between +20° C and +30° C, must have been operating for a
warm–up period of at least 20 minutes, and must be operating at an ambient
temperature between +10° C and +40° C.
Refer to Conventions on page B-1 for more information.
Equipment Required
These procedures use external, traceable signal sources to directly check warranted
characteristics. Table B-2 lists the required equipment used to complete the
performance tests.
