You can still pick up documentation directly from Agilent here.<\/a><\/p>\nIn digging through the datasheet you can see that a FAIL 023 means we’re having a problem with the dc offset, so I printed off the relevant service information (groups K,J) and prepared for the worst.\u00a0 After powering the machine on at my desk I was again met with the FAIL 023 when requesting a sine wave, and a new error was a FAIL021 when requesting a square wave.\u00a0 I then out of chance cycled through the other 3 settings (triangle, etc) and returned to the square wave and sine waves to discover that the errors had went away!\u00a0 It’s likely that I had a stuck\/hung up relay and switching away from square and sine waves cycled something into place again.\u00a0 We’ll see how long it lasts but hopefully I’ve just picked up a nice piece of equipment.<\/p>\n
Additionally while I was reassembling the covers, turning the instrument from side to side resulted in a nice pinball sound, I swung it back in forth until I was greeted with 3 washers on my desk, I can’t imagine that these were helping with things but they’re out now.\u00a0 Looks like they came off the main power transformer which someone had helpfully duct-taped into place at some point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
I saved a HP3325B from the trash almost 6 months ago which is an awesome score.\u00a0 When I had first powered it up it threw a FAIL 023 error, I put it under my desk and decided to get it out and patch it up today.
