Utilities Overview

Some FieldFox model and option combinations will require the installation of the CFG Option in order to complete utilities. Refer to the CFG Option section for more information.

The utilities provided in this menu are not intended to be run as part of an annual calibration. These utilities are intended to be used for troubleshooting or repair purposes. (The exception to this are the first four network analyzer calibration utilities which are required to calibrate the network analyzer used in some tests and adjustments.)

Each completed utility is labeled Complete or Fail. Some utilities produce a text file that may be useful when troubleshooting problems.
