Colgan et al,
We just received a full one-page letter from Agilent dated 19 December
2000, if I may reduce it to the essential messages:
Agilent DISCONTINUES any plans to support A14.
Agilent DISCONTINUES as of 31 Dec 2000 (or 1 Jan 2001) the
14761A/62A/63A software packages for regulatory testing.
Agilent DISCONTINUES manufacture of AC sources rated higher than 1750
VA.
Agilent will CONTINUE to make the 6811B/12B/13B models AC sources
(those rated at and below 1750 VA).
The last date to place an ORDER for discontinued products
(hardware/software) is 31 May 2001.
Agilent suggests using the 684X as a precompliance tool after the A14 DOW.
The email address provided in the letter is: [email protected]
I hope I paraphrased the letter correctly. If you have any questions, I
suggest you contact Agilent.

Please respond to
"Colgan, Chris"
Happy New Year!
Not such a happy start for me though. I have been informed by Agilent that
they will not be supporting a software upgrade for the 6800 series
harmonics
analysers for A14 to EN61000-3-2.
I have studied A14 and there appear to be some measurement technique
changes. Does this mean that I cannot just set my HP6842A to measure class
A limits to test to A14? If I cannot, does anyone know of a company that
has written or can write a software upgrade for me?
Or have Agilent turned several thousand pounds worth of compliance test
equipment into a few hundred pounds worth of power supply?
