Incoming Inspection

The incoming inspection procedures are optional procedures to check the functionality of your instrument. These procedures require no equipment other than an external monitor or display. For a more robust inspection, see the performance verification procedures in the WVR7200 Specifications and

Performance Verification Technical Reference that is included on the Product

Documentation CD that shipped with your instrument.

Basic Turn On and Self

Test

The following test can performed with or without the external monitor. Using the external monitor allows you to check that the DVI connector on the rear panel is working properly.

1. Connect a monitor to the EXT DISPLAY connector on the rear panel of the instrument. This connector is a DVI-I connector with socket contacts. The output supports DVI monitors directly and analog PC (RGB) monitors using a

DVI-I to VGA adapter.

2. Connect the AC line cord to the rear of the instrument and to a 100 to

240 VAC source.
