A friend of mine just sent out a DS360 for calibration at Tektronix. It failed.
Oddly enough, a number of the parameters were at the edge of passing, but still within SRS specification, yet Tektronix listed them as FAIL.
Some others were a bit on the high side. Even the ones that were passing were at the hairy edge (high)
I've attached the calibration report.
My questions:
1. Why did Tek list the passing parameters as FAIL?
2. Did they really attempt a calibration, or did they just run a performance test?
3. If there is something wrong, my guess is maybe a resistor may have gone out of tolerance, yet I think a *true* calibration would have compensated, yes?
And the longshot:
4. Does anyone happen to have schematics? In my past dealings with SRS, they are not helpful at all with parts or service data unless you are the original owner and bought direct from them. In other words, they suck.
Thanks.
