Appendix B: Performance Verification

Two types of Performance Verification procedures can be performed on this
product: Self Tests and Performance Tests. You may not need to perform all of
these procedures, depending on what you want to accomplish.

H Verify that the AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator is operating

correctly by running the self tests which begin on page B–3.

Advantages: These procedures require minimal time to perform, require no
additional equipment, and test the internal hardware of the AWG610
Arbitrary Waveform Generator.

H If a more extensive confirmation of performance is desired, complete the self

test, and then do the performance test beginning on page B–7.

Advantages: These procedures add direct checking of warranted specifica-
tions. They require more time to perform and suitable test equipment is
required. (Refer to Equipment Required on page B–8).
