To avoid personal shock hazard, do not touch conductive parts. All accessible conductive parts are directly connected through the grounding conductor of the power cord to the grounded (earthing) contact of the power plug. The DG2030 is safety Class 1 equipment (IEC designation).
Preparation for Use Power Cord Information The DG2030 ships with the required power cord as ordered by the customer. Table 2-1 gives the color-coding of the conductors in the power cord. Table 2-2 shows information on the available power cords.
Left and right 6 inches (15 cm) The feet on the bottom of the DG2030 cabinet provide the required clearance when it is set on a flat surface. The top of the DG2030 does not require ventilation clearance. CAUTION. To prevent temporary shutdown of the DG2030, do not restrict air flow through the chassis.
Figure 2 1: Rear panel controls Fuse Type and Rating The DG2030 uses the same fuse for all operating line voltage ranges. One of two fuse types is installed in the instrument, depending upon the power cord option. Table 2-3 provides the available types and ratings.
At power-on, the start-up diagnostics check the DG2030 operation. If all diagnostic items complete without error, the DG2030 displays the EDIT menu. If the diagnostics detect an error, the DG2030 displays the error code. To exit the diagnostics menu, press any key; then the system displays the EDIT menu. See section 6, Maintenance, for information on diagnostics and fault isolation.
275 pounds and with an inside dimension at least six inches greater than the DG2030 dimensions. (If available, use the original shipping carton, which meets these requirements.) If the DG2030 is shipped to a Tektronix Service Center, enclose the following information: H The owner’s address...
How to Power On To power-on the DG2030, follow these steps: 1. Set the PRINCIPAL POWER SWITCH (on the rear of the DG2030) to the ON position. This switch is the main power switch; it routes power to the standby circuit in the DG2030.
Operating Instructions User Interface The DG2030 uses a combination of front-panel buttons, keys, a knob, and on-screen menus to control generator functions. Some front-panel controls select menus and manipulate menu items. Others enter values and units, allow manual triggering, start/stop DG2030 output, advance the pattern data, generate an event pulse, and make a hard copy.
Operating Instructions Table 2 4: DG2030 display elements Figure number Label Description Status area Displays the current status of the instrument. This status line is always displayed, whichever menu is displayed. The status line displays the following four items. MODE: Displays the run mode in which pattern data will be output.
The DG2030 generates patterns from file residing in internal nonvolatile memory. The DG2030 also has a floppy-disk drive for loading files from floppy disk into internal nonvolatile memory, and for saving files from memory to floppy disk. The disk drive accepts 3.5-inch floppy disks in the MS-DOS format.
The following steps explain how to load files from a floppy disk into internal memory. 1. Turn the disk so the side with the arrow is on top; insert the disk into the DG2030 floppy disk drive. 2. Press the EDIT button on the front panel. 3. Select File from the bottom menu.

Do service of static-sensitive modules only at a static-free work station. 4. Do not remove the DG2030 cabinet unless you have met precaution number 3, above. Consider all internal modules static-sensitive. 5. Do not allow anything capable of generating or holding a static charge on the work station surface.
DG2030 operates. General Care The cabinet helps keep dust out of the DG2030 and is a major component of the instrument cooling system. The cabinet should normally be in place when operating the DG2030. The DG2030 front cover (optional accessory) protects the front panel and display from dust and damage.
Maintenance Exterior Inspection. Inspect the outside of the DG2030 for damage, wear, and missing parts, using Table 6-2 as a guide. If the DG2030 appears to have been dropped or otherwise abused, check it thoroughly to verify correct operation and performance.
3. If steps 1 and 2 do not remove all the dust or dirt, the DG2030 may be spray washed using a solution of 75% isopropyl alcohol by doing step 4 through 8.
