In all test equipment configurations, cables and adapters must be properly torqued. Exceeding recommended torque values can cause damage to a cable or adapter, and can cause inaccurate test results.
This section describes all available performance tests for the E8257D, E8267D, E8257N and E8663D signal generators. These performance tests verify that the signal generator meets specifications.

When performing performance verification tests using an 82357A/B USB/GPIB interface converter and PSG-D units with serial prefix >= 4928, SCPI errors or a GPIB timeout may occur. If these errors occur with the USB/GPIB interface, repeat the performance verification tests using a GPIB card connection to the PSG-D. |
Perform the tests listed below at least once every 24 months.
1. Not run for E8257D, E8267D or E8257N units with serial prefix >= 4928 and Option UNU.
The current Keysight Technologies integral crystal oscillator testing policy is available on the Keysight Technologies website.
