Powering Off the Logic Analyzer
The portable mainframe has a built-in soft power-off function that safely powers
off the mainframe when you press the On/Standby switch. If you have the
benchtop mainframe, you must power off the mainframe using the Windows 95
shutdown process before depressing the On/Standby switch.
CAUTION. When powering off the benchtop mainframe, use the Windows 95 shut
down procedure. Powering off the benchtop mainframe prematurely can corrupt
the software on the hard disk.
Perform the Incoming Inspection
Incoming inspection consists of verifying the basic operation of the logic
analyzer. The Power-on diagnostics check the basic functionality. These
diagnostics run every time you power on the logic analyzer.
You can also verify more detailed functionality by running the self calibration
and extended diagnostics.
NOTE. Allow a 30-minute warm-up before running the self calibration.
Disconnect any attached probes from the modules. Then select the System menu,
and point to Calibration and Diagnostics. Run the self calibration followed by
the extended diagnostics by selecting the proper tab. Results of the tests display
on the individual property page.
NOTE. The time required to run the self calibration on the logic analyzer
modules depends on the number of acquisition channels. Modules with a large
number of channels may take several minutes to run the self calibration.
If you want to perform detailed performance verification procedures, refer to the
TLA 700 Series Performance Verification and Adjustment Technical Reference
Manual
 (available as an optional accessory).
Connect the logic analyzer probes to a signal source, start an acquisition, and
verify that the acquired data is displayed in either the listing or waveform
windows.
