reading Keysight 3458A serial number
« on: Today at 01:25:24 pm »
I have a 3458A with the S/N sticker missing.
The firmware revision is 9.2
Is there any way I can read the serial number of the instrument?

ID? only says HP3458A and obviously it does not understand SCPI language :-//

Hello,

perhaps the EEVblog Metrology-Forum is a better place for this question.

Best regards

same toughts

the keysight manual specify  ID?  and  not IDN?  for a id request,  and it report only the model  nothing more  it seems,
It was asked in another thread here in the past

no SN sticker sound suspicious, these stickers don't remove themselves or fall off easily  ??  is it an Fleabay purchase ?

Especially on an item which lists at the price it does!
