In Case of Problems
This chapter provides information that addresses problems that you may
encounter while installing your logic analyzer. This chapter does not identify
module-specific problems relating to performance verification or adjustments.
For information on running performance verification procedures or adjustment
procedures, refer to the instructions in the TLA 700 Series Performance
Verification and Adjustment Technical Reference Manual, available as an
optional accessory to your logic analyzer.
Diagnostics
The following diagnostic tools are available with your logic analyzer:
H Power on diagnostics. These diagnostics run when you first power on the
logic analyzer or when you first start the TLA 700 Series application. If any
diagnostic failures occur during power on, the Calibration and Diagnostics
property page appears.
NOTE. Before running the extended diagnostics on the logic analyzer module,
disconnect any attached probes.
H Extended diagnostics. These diagnostics test the logic analyzer more
thoroughly than the power on diagnostics. The TLA 700 Series extended
diagnostics test the DSO module as well as the logic analyzer module. You
can use the extended diagnostics to isolate problems down to an individual
module. The extended diagnostics are part of the TLA 700 Series Applica-
tion.
H TLA 700 Mainframe diagnostics. The TLA Mainframe diagnostics are a
separate Windows 95 application located in the TLA 700 program group.
These diagnostics check operation of the mainframe beyond the basic PC
circuitry. These diagnostics also check the front panel controls of the
portable mainframe.
H QAPlus diagnostics. The QAPlus diagnostics are a separate Windows 95
application located in the Windows 95 Start Programs menu. The diagnostics
check the basic operation of the controller including the following items:
system board, video, hard and floppy disks, memory, communications port,
printer port, mouse and keyboard.
Use the diagnostics to isolate problems to software or hardware within the logic
analyzer. For additional help on the diagnostics, contact your local Tektronix
representative.
