content: Hi,I bought this device(16822a) Non working "AS IS" condition an year back. The issue was with M880 Nitro Motherboard. Luckily I was able to repair the board and the device got booted. But after sometime the device got power off automatically. After that it never booted. When I press the power button , it tutns ON for less than a second. I was noted the the POWERFAIL test signal is getting high during this time, So checked all DC outputs in the board ans found the +3.25V DC DC converter not working(there was no outputs at +2.5v and +1.2V as its also working from the same 3.3v ). (captured Power ouputs has been attached). I have odered a replacement ARTESYN power module for the same.Hope with that I can fix the device.While the device was working, i was getting an error when opening the logic analyzer application, saying "check software hardware/ firmware version might be different" like that. As its bought as AS IS condition, dont know wether someone already have swaped the boards(Haven't done any power-up tests yet). The hardisk is loaded with Windows XP ,but the frame is having Vista product key label. It would be helpfull if someone could help me to find the right software version for my hardware, based on hardware part Numbers. The service manuals that I could download are having updated part numbers and not matching with my hardware part numbers.Logic Analyzer Serial Number :MY46230103OPTION : 101 102 1111M Memory250Mhz StatePCI Card :16903-66404 Rev 002Module Interface Board: 16800-66404Logic Acquisition Card : 16911-66402 Rev 002Patern Generator Card: 16720-664012)Is it possible to get a recovery image for the same(FTP download links)??3) I would like to use the View scope for correlation with my scope Infiniium 54810a. Do I need a time correlation fixure(E5850A) for the same like 16700 series??4) Is it possible to upgade the 1M memory wihout any hardware change?? If its software upate, do i have to get any license from keysight?RegardsSreekanth MK

Otherwisethis is the main applicationthat would be installed on the logic analyser. I don't know if you'd need additional drivers.Quote from: SreekanthMK on January 12, 2022, 05:44:45 amReading thedatasheetit doesn't look like you need any fixtures, just have the right software version on both devices, and then make sure they are both connected to LAN and their triggering ports are connected via BNC.Quote from: SreekanthMK on January 12, 2022, 05:44:45 amProbablynot(it's software/EEPROM, and appears to be neither available from Keysight nor reverse-engineered).

content: For a 16822A with an ADLINK M-880 motherboard you want the 16800-14103 Recovery DVD:Code:168xA/AD Win XP MY41000801-MY41000899 Radisys SC815E 01680-14100MY41000901-MY41001099 Motorola VP22 01680-14104MY41001101-later ADLINK M-815G 01680-14106168xxA MY46000101-MY46000999 Intel D915GUX 16800-14102MY46001000-later ADLINK M-880 16800-1410316900A, 16902A MY43000001-MY43001999 Motorola VP22 16900-14109MY43002000-later ADLINK M-815G 16900-1412116901A MY46000101-MY46000399 Intel D915GUX 16901-14101MY46000400-later ADLINK M-880 16901-1410216902B All ADLINK M-880 16902-1410016903A MY43000001-MY43000199 Radisys SC815E 16903-14100MY43000200-MY43001999 Motorola VP22 16903-14104MY43002000-later ADLINK M-815G 16903-14107If your serial number starts with SG, then the same number ranges apply.For example, SG43000001 is the same as MY43000001The ISO image for the 16800-14103 recovery DVD is 2,148,937,728 bytes in size. There is an archived copy of the 16800-14103.iso file inside of the Internet Archive copy of the 2015.03.ftp.keysight.com.tar archive.You can find the CD / DVD images here on the Internet Archive:https://archive.org/download/ftp.keysight.com/You can click on the View Contents link to see and download the individual files so that you don't have to download the entire 183GB 2015.03.ftp.keysight.com.tar archive.ftp.keysight.com/cos/outbound/16xxx recovery images/16800-14103/ftp.keysight.com/cos/outbound/16xxx recovery images/16800-14103/16800-14103.pdfftp.keysight.com/cos/outbound/16xxx recovery images/16800-14103/16800-14103.isoUnfortunately the last time I tried to download a just single file that was greater than 1GB in size from the 2015.03.ftp.keysight.com.tar archive file it failed to download past 1GB in size. I'd have to try that again to see if that is still an issue.Assuming you do get a valid 16800-14103.iso recovery DVD image and burn that to a DVD, then you need to boot the 16822A from that DVD. I suppose you either need an external USB DVD drive, or open up the 16822A and temporarily attach a SATA DVD drive to do that. When you boot from the recovery DVD it will wipe the hard drive and reinstall a Windows XP SP2 system image from a Ghost image on the DVD. After that completes, you then need to install the XP SP3 update separately, and then the logic analyzer application separately after that.The 16822A logic analyzer module (basically the same module as a 16911A) could be upgraded via a software license to 32M sample depth, and 500MHz state speed. Some people have solutions for that.

content: Dear gslick,Thanks allot for sharing the FTP link. downloaded the 16800-14103.iso and XP SP3 from the tar package. As you rightly said, the iso image is 1 GB only, but its propery mounting. I will update you once tested.Once again Thankyou for your time and sharing the link....RegardsSreekanth MK

content: If the 16800-14103.iso DVD Recovery image file you attempted to download from the Internet Archive 2015.03.ftp.keysight.com.tar file archive was only 1GB in size, that is a truncated file download. It will not work. If you boot from that DVD the recovery process might start, but it will fail to complete successfully because half of the recovery file data is missing.I sent you a PM with a link to a temporarily shared copy of the 16800-14103.iso DVD Recovery image file that is the full 2,148,937,728 bytes in size.
