Power Up Status

Last Updated: August 29, 2007

During boot up the Real Time Processor generates the PowerupStatus file.

After the Windows operating system is fully booted it launches the E6601A Wireless Communication Test Set Program. The  E6601A Wireless Communication Test Set Program releases the Real Time Processor from reset. The Real Time Processor monitors the real time hardware during the boot up process. When the Real Time Processor is fully booted it writes 'APP READY' to the PowerupStatus file and archives the information generated during the boot up process to the PowerupStatus file.

The PowerupStatus file archives each file by name, date and the number of seconds since midnight. Power Up Status Files are kept for 30 days before they are deleted.

You can view the PowerupStatus file for your test set at:

 C:\Program Files\Agilent\E6601A\PowerupStatus\PowerupStatus.txt

Each line of text in the PowerupStatus file is divided into five fields.
