7-7-4-9 Diagnostic Utilities
This Diagnostic Group contains useful utilities, which provide either a diagnostic or calibration tool for
the user.
• Acq HW Information Utility - Collects all available information about the Acquisition Hardware.
This utility enumerates the Acquisition Hardware and writes a file containing all of the Vital Product
Data (VPD) associated with each installed board.
• Transmit Utility - Start: Selectively fires each transmitter in the System with various parameters
for testing purposes.
This utility exercises the transmitter of each channel, such that external test equipment can
measure the generated waveforms. This tests the analog circuitry of the transmitter, as well as the
digital generation of the transmit waveforms on the TD's.
• Transmit Utility - Change Channel
• Transmit Utility - Stop
• Receive Utility - Single Frame - Selectively activates each receiver in the System for testing
purposes.
• Receive Utility - 8 Frames: This utility exercises the receiver of each channel, such that an external
source may be used to test the receivers. The received waveform is fed through the Acquisition
Hardware and retrieved from the Image Memory.
• Visual Channel Utility - The user can selectively turn ON/OFF transmitter and/or receiver
channels. By viewing the image as this is done, the user may be able to identify bad channels.
NOTE: This Visual Channel Utility works only with the 10L probe.
• High Voltage Reset Utility
• Probe Select Utility 1-4
• Probe ID Read Utility
• Commutator State Write Utility - Diagnostic not yet implemented
