Tektronix TG8000 User Manual

Getting started
To install a module
To install a mod
ule into an empty slot in the mainframe, perform the following
procedure:
1. Unplug the pow
er cord from the power connector on the rear panel of the
mainframe.
2. Use the foll
owing guidelines to select the slot where you will install the
module. The following figure shows a sample module c onfiguration with
the associated slot n umbers.
For AGL7 and GPS7 modules, only one of these modules can be installed
in the TG8000 mainframe at a time, and it must be installed only in slot 1.
All other modules may be installed in any slot location.
NOTE. When installing a G PS7 module into an existing TG8000 mainframe, it
is suggested that you calibrate the mainframe oscillator oven as part of the
install
ation and qualification process. (See page 2-47, CAL OVEN submenu
(GPS7 module only).)
Althou
gh the GPS7 module will operate only in slot 1, you can use the GPS7
module to test diagnostics in each of the four mainframe slots. Refer to the
TG8000 Specifications and Performance Verification Technical Reference
for more information.
For the AG7, ATG7, AVG7, AWVG7, BG7, DVG7, HD3G7, HDLG7,
HDVG7, and SDI7 modules, up to four of the modules can be installed
in the TG8000 mainframe.
The TG8000 Power Supply module is user replaceable and must be
installed o nly in the position shown in the following figure. The TG8000
Power Supply module cannot be installed in a TG700 mainframe.
If you move an AGL7 module from a TG700 mainframe to a TG8000
mainframe, or if you move an AGL7 module from a TG8000 with
fi
rmware version 1.2 or below to a TG8000 with firmware version 1.3 or
above, the FPGA of the AGL7 module will be automatically updated
when the instrument boots.
CAUTION. To prevent an update failure of your AGL7 module, do not remove
or cycle power on the TG8000 while the instrument is rebooting after
installing the AGL7 module. The FPGA update on the AGL7 module takes
about three minutes and there is no indication on the front panel that the AGL7
module is being updated. If power is interrupted before the FPGA update is
complete, the module will need to be returned to Tektronix for service.
