I have an Agilent 86142A OSA connected via GPIB-USB-HS cable to my PC. MAX recognizes it in the tree, but a lot of options (like self-test, calibrate) don't appear. I'm new in MAX, so I'm not sure whether this is acceptable or not. Have I made some error in installing the device, or do some options simply not show up for particular devices? I've attached an image of MAX in this situation.
If indeed the device is installed fine, how does one perform a test to see if the connection is good if the Self-Test icons don't appear?
Please let me know if it seems the device has been detected properly and all is well.
Thanks!
