Getting Started Product Description The ECO422D SD/HD Changeover Unit (Figure 1- -1 and Figure 1- -2) provides automatic selection of reference sources. Automatic changeover may occur upon fault detection in any active source. Automatic transfer ensures uninterrupted signals for critical applications. The ECO422D is an in-line device without internal buffers.
17-¾ inches to allow clearance for the slide-out tracks. Rack slides conveniently mount in any rack that has a front-to-rear rail spacing between 15-½ and 28 inches. The ECO422D requires six inches of clearance between the instrument rear panel and any rear cabinet panel for connector space and to provide adequate air circulation.

Electrical Installation You can order any of the following power cord options for the ECO422D. If no power cord option is ordered, the instrument is shipped with a North American 125 V power cord and one replacement fuse.
Figure 1- -2 shows the instrument rear panel. Connecting Power To supply power to the ECO422D, connect the power cord to the power-input connector on the rear-panel of the instrument, and then connect the power cord to the local mains supply.
(example: Trompeter RT- -1L). There are many different ways to configure the ECO422D. The illustration below is only one example. One thing to keep in mind, the ECO422D will automatically change to the Primary signals whenever it looses power. Therefore, always power the Backup source and the ECO422D by the same source and the Primary source separately.

ECO422D. This section gives one example, analog active video. Active Analog Video. The ECO422D will pass active analog video by using the no checking mode, but there will be times when you need to check for the presence of an active video signal.
All of these switches are available through a small access panel on top of the ECO422D, eliminating any need to remove the top cover just to change the function of the outputs.
Getting Started Functional Check and First Time Operation This section steps through how the ECO422D will react under its most common operating circumstances: two good signals, loss and then return of the Primary signal, loss and return of the Backup signal, and loss of power. Only two input signals are used here to avoid confusion.

Power up all instruments. Enable the front panel, using the Front Panel button. Set the ECO422D to “Switch on Fault” using front-panel buttons. (This is the default at power on.) If Primary is not already the source, press the Sync Source button to make Primary the source.

Getting Started Reconnect the Primary input source. (Replace the cable between the SPG422 and the Primary 1 input of the ECO422D.) Press the Reset button to clear the fault indicator LED. Return the auto switching to “Switch on Fault.” Note that the sync source is still Backup.
Primary or Backup input). It can be manually changed using the Sync Source button. (If the ECO422D is in Normal mode, this is only true when the other input is good or both inputs are bad. Refer to User Configuration Switch (S14- -8) on page 2- -3.) Only one of these LEDs can be on.

For Normal operation, the user cannot switch to a bad signal whether the instrument is in manual or auto switch mode. For example, the ECO422D is in manual mode and the Primary signal is bad, while the Backup signal is good. If the user presses the Sync Source button, the output will be the Backup signal.

3. Set all S14 switches “closed.” 4. Set the ECO422D to Primary Sync Source. 5. Set the ECO422D Auto Switching to “Switch on Fault.” 6. Set the step attenuator to 0 dB of attenuation. 7. Turn the potentiometer R265 fully. (You are attempting to allow the minimum signal level to pass through before the threshold is reached.)
Operating Basics 12. Slowly adjust R265 until the ECO422D switches to the Backup sync source and a fault occurs on the Primary channel. Press Reset to verify that the fault is still preset. If the Primary fault indicator LED goes out, continue adjusting the potentiometer.

WARNING The following servicing instructions are for use only by qualified personnel. To avoid injury, do not perform any servicing other than that stated in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Refer to all safety summaries before performing any service.
Theory of Operation This section provides information on how the ECO422D circuitry works, in order to troubleshoot the instrument. Logic Conventions Signal names are all capital letters. For example, SIGNAL. An active low signal (normally denoted by an overscore) is a signal name enclosed in parentheses.
Latch Flag other channels Figure 4- 1: Block diagram of the ECO422D The Primary and Backup signals enter through the BNCs. The signal goes directly to the Relay where one switches through to the rear-panel Output and the other terminates in 75 Ω. The rest of the circuitry determines which signal goes to the Output.
This allows checking a broader range of signals without the Negative Peak Detectors being overdriven or saturated. The output of the Input Buffers goes to the Negative Peak Detectors. 4- 3 ECO422D SD/HD Changeover Unit Instruction Manual...

Adjustment Procedure The only adjustment required for the ECO422D is the user-defined threshold levels. Adjustment Procedure How to Adjust the The user-defined threshold levels are the two levels available from User User-Defined Threshold Configuration switches SX- -6 (R266) and SX- -7 (R265). They are available so that the user can check the levels of signals other than the five predefined levels.
Inspection and Cleaning Preventive maintenance consists of cleaning, lubricating, visual inspection, checking performance, and readjusting the ECO422D on a regular schedule. The Inspection and cleaning schedule should be established based on the amount of use and the surrounding environment of the ECO422D. Under average condi- tions, a preventive maintenance check should be performed on a one year interval (severe environmental conditions may dictate a shorter time interval).

Periodic checks of the transistors and integrated circuits are not recommended. The best measure of performance is the actual operation of the component in the circuit. 7- 2 ECO422D SD/HD Changeover Unit Instruction Manual...
Service static-sensitive components or assemblies only at a static free workstation by qualified personnel. If soldering is involved, use a soldering iron connected to earth ground and special antistatic desoldering tools. 7- 3 ECO422D SD/HD Changeover Unit Instruction Manual...
Ensure that the malfunction exists in the instrument. This is done by making sure Procedures that the instrument is operating as intended by Tektronix (see Operating Basics), and by checking that a malfunction has not occurred upstream from the ECO422D.
Page 103
Determine the extent of the repair. If the necessary repair is complex, it may be advisable to contact your local Tektronix field office or representative before continuing. If the repair is minor, such as replacing a component, see the parts list for replacement information.
In addition, there are training programs that are available for service technicians. NOTE. When considering which service offerings best suit the current need, remember that Tektronix provides a limited parts and service warranty for all its products. No customer repairs should be attempted during the warranty period. Service Training Tektronix provides service training in a number of programs.
Note that this information is important whether you are ordering a circuit board from the Module Exchange Center or as a new replacement part from Tektronix. Table 7- 2: Assemblies in the ECO422D Circuit board First seven digits Assembly name assembly No.

Maintenance Factory Replacement Replacement parts are available through the local Tektronix field office or Parts representative. However, many common electric parts are available through local sources. Using a local source, where possible, will eliminate shipping delays. Changes to Tektronix instruments are sometimes made to accommodate improved components, as they become available, and to improve circuit performance.
