Initializing and Calibrating Modules
The installed modules are initialized and stored calibration factors are uploaded from either
the disk drive or module NV-RAM into system RAM. The configuration menu of the module
using the calibration factors will show if the calibration factors have been successfully loaded.
In some cases, a message appears the first time the module is entered. In other cases, the
operation of the module changes until a software calibration is performed to reload calibration
factors. Refer to the User’s Guide and Service Guide of the individual modules for more
information.
Autoloading Configurations
The configuration file autoload flag was detected on the disk and configuration files are being
loaded into the modules. The autoload flag was set during a previous session with the
HP 16500B Logic Analysis System. Usually a configuration is autoloaded as a shortcut if the
module configuration file is used repeatedly.
