The system manager at our site indicated that when he was at Tektronics he had an FPA go bad with the only symptom being that it returned the wrong answer. Of course, it passed all the diagnostics which obviously did not include a routine to see if if was getting the right answers. This should be straight forward to check out by removing the FPA and trying your test program again. Bill MacAllister Grass Valley Group Grass Valley, California tektronix!gvgpsa!gvg49.dnet!mac
