First-Time Set Up Considerations
NOTE
Determine Whether the Instrument will be Connected to the Network
If you plan to use COM automation to programmatically control a logic
analyzer from a remote computer, be aware that the remote computer
and the logic analyzer must both have the same kind of network
membership; that is, they must both be members of a “Workgroup”, or
they must both be members of a “Domain”. This is due to the security
requirements of Distributed COM.
Standalone
You are going to use the logic analyzer as a standalone instrument (no
LAN connection). Printing requires a printer attached to the logic analyzer,
sharing files is done via USB flash drive or floppy disk.
Connected to a Network
If you require the ability to print, share files, remotely control the logic
analyzer, etc. over the network, you need to either join a workgroup or
domain.
First-Time Set Up 1
Get Network Setup Information
For networking, find out whether the network that your instrument will be
connected to uses the Microsoft Workgroup model or Microsoft Domain
model. In order for your instrument to perform tasks over the network
(print, transfer files, etc.) your instrument must be configured
appropriately for the networking model in use at your site.
Information you may require to complete your network configuration may
include, but is not limited to:
• The Workgroup or Domain name.
• Methodology for assigning IP addresses at your site (for example,
DHCP).
• Domain Name Service (DNS).
Other network information that may be readily available from your network
administrator.

NOTE
To power off the system
Using the Windows Shutdown
Using a Short Press of the Power Button
You can power off the logic analyzer using Windows Shutdown or a short
press of the power button.
When powering off the logic analyzer, wait until the fans stop turning
(about 15 seconds) before turning the logic analyzer back on. This
ensures that internal circuitry restarts in a known state.
On the logic analyzer desktop click Start>Shut Down or if you are running
remote desktop, click Start>Windows Security>Shut Down. This:
• Closes all programs that are running.
• Writes all data to the disk.
• Turns off the power supply.
• If the system is unplugged while it is off and then plugged back in, the
system will not power on until the power button is pressed.
Pressing the power button on the logic analyzer for a short time (less than
2 seconds):
• Closes all programs that are running.
• Writes all data to the disk.
• Turns off the power supply.
If the power button on the Remote Desktop is depressed for a short time
(less than 2 seconds or so), a message on the logic analyzer screen (not on
the remote desktop) will pop up asking if you really want to power down.
Clicking the 'yes' button results in the above events. Clicking 'no' will
prevent the shutdown. Not answering the dialog box (clicking neither “Yes”
nor “No”) will have no effect. Further short presses on the power button
will have no effect.
28 Keysight 16800 Series Portable Logic Analyzers Installation/Quick Start Guide

Page 44
If the logic analyzer powers itself down
If the logic analyzer warns you it is powering down before it powers down,
the dialog will describe the problem (such as a fan/overtemp problem). If
the logic analyzer just powers down, it is likely a power supply problem.
If the Power LEDs do not come on
If the lights do not come on and if the system powers up momentarily
when you plug it in, make sure the power button hasn't become jammed or
stuck in the pushed in position.
If you get a registry error and the system won’t boot
When powered off unexpectedly (for example, with a long press of the
power button or a power loss), Windows may not flush all system
information to disk and is vulnerable to problems. When you power back
on you may get a “Registry Error” and the system won't boot. If this
happens you will need to restore from the system CD-ROM. In the Logic
Analysis systems with Windows 7 installation, you can restore the system
software using the recovery process. This process overwrites all the user
data and restores the system back to the original condition in which it was
shipped. Refer to the topic “On a 16800 Series Logic Analyzer with
Windows 7 Installation" on page 48 to know more about this process.
It is best to keep regular backups of your data and use proper power down
procedures. If you have data that was not backed up that you need to try
to save:
1 Physically remove the disk drive.
2 Mount it under another Windows XP/7 system based on which
operating system is installed on the Logic Analysis system.
3 Move the data to the boot disk until you can restore the operating
system.

If there are network connection problems
See the “Network Troubleshooting Guide” topic in the Keysight Logic and
Protocol Analyzer application’s online help. Briefly:
• The Windows Firewall must be set to allow access to the “Keysight
Logic Analysis” service in order use remote connections (see “To restore
the logic analyzer firewall defaults" on page 37).
• The Windows Firewall must be set to respond to the following ICMP
(Internet Control Message Protocol) requests in order to use remote
connections:
• Allow incoming echo requests.
• Allow outgoing destination unreachable.
• Allow outgoing time exceeded.
(See “To restore the logic analyzer firewall defaults" on page 37.)
• The link activity light must be on; If these LEDs are not on, the LAN
segment may be dead.
• If connecting two logic analysis systems directly together (that is, no
hub or switch between them), make sure you are using a special
cross-over cable.
If your IP address is in the same subnet as a working computer’s (use
“ipconfig /all | more” to view IP addresses on machine in question), it is
possible that your network administrators have denied access to any
resources if the computer is not in the domain. In this case, you need to
add the computer (logic analysis system) to the domain.

CAUTION
Using the System Recovery Software
Restoring your system software might be necessary for the following
reasons:
• Hard drive failure.
• Virus in the system or unstable system.
• Intentional disk clean - for example if you are passing the system to
another team or returning it to a rental company and you do not want
any data left on it.
On a Legacy 16800 Series Logic Analyzer with Windows XP Installation
The legacy 16800 series of Logic Analyzers have the Windows XP
operating system installed. These systems also have the Keysight Logic
Analyzer software preinstalled.
You need to have a keyboard, mouse, and USB DVD-ROM drive
connected.
Follow the instructions provided with the recovery CD or DVD that
accompanies your Logic Analyzer to restore your system software.
Running the recovery disks will reformat your hard drive. All data files
and programs will be overwritten. Save your data to a CD or to another

5 Safety Notices
Warnings
• Before turning on the instrument, you must connect the protective
earth terminal of the instrument to the protective conductor of the
(mains) power cord. The mains plug shall only be inserted in a socket
outlet provided with a protective earth contact. You must not negate
the protective action by using an extension cord (power cable) without
a protective conductor (grounding). Grounding one conductor of a
two-conductor outlet is not sufficient protection.
• Only fuses with the required rated current, voltage, and specified type
(normal blow, time delay, etc.) should be used. Do not use repaired
fuses or short-circuited fuse holders. To do so could cause a shock or
fire hazard.
• If you energize this instrument by an auto transformer (for voltage
reduction or mains isolation), the common terminal must be connected
to the earth terminal of the power source.
• Whenever it is likely that the ground protection is impaired, you must
make the instrument inoperative and secure it against any unintended
operation.
• Service instructions are for trained service personnel. To avoid
dangerous electric shock, do not perform any service unless qualified to
do so. Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another
person, capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation, is present.
• Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized
modification to the instrument.
• Capacitors inside the instrument may retain a charge even if the
instrument is disconnected from its source of supply.
• Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gasses or
fumes. Operation of any electrical instrument in such an environment
constitutes a definite safety hazard.
• Do not use the instrument in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer.
• To optimize your comfort and productivity, it is important that you set
up your work area correctly and use your equipment properly. Refer to
http://www.keysight.com/quality/Working_In_Comfort.pdf for set-up
