I am using an 8563E with external mixers, but it does not have the signal ID firmware. Is it possible to obtain & load it? It has the memory module with card slot. :?:
" ... it does not have the signal ID firmware. Is it possible to obtain & load it? "
8563E Option 008 Signal ID required specific additional instrument measurement hardware to function.
Unfortunately 8563E went out of support in 2006 and so the needed hardware may no longer be available. You can try contacting an Agilent service center to see if they can still perform this upgrade. In the UK the number is +44 (0)131 331 1000
hi I have the hardware opt 8 a15 board , I used this board to fix an 8563e that had a bad a15 board. and I want to add the option capability to the unit's rom , how do I program it so it accepts it, shows it , and puts the menu function on the ext mixer control key so I can use it? Its not showing up so far.
looks like i need a .vxe program I got from agilent site. programmed thru gpib. seems easy enough. but will it delete options as well? ill have to try it. also anyone know how to change elapsed time hours ? and serials?
