Tektronix Chart Recorders YT–1 and YT–1S are
designed to operate with the 1502C. Produces
a high resolution thermal dot matrix recording of
waveform and switch values.
115 VAC (90 to 132 VAC) 45 to 440 Hz
230 VAC (180 to 250 VAC) 45 to 440 Hz
8 hours minimum, 30 chart recordings maxi-
mum
20 hours maximum
Charging discontinues once full charge is
attained
Operation terminates prior to battery damage
3.4 Amp-hours typical
Bat/low will be indicated on LCD when capacity
reaches approximately 10%
Supplemental Information
For cables with Vp = 0.66
For delta mode measurements
Error ≤0.5% for distance ≥27 ft
Error ≤1.0% for distance ≥14 ft
Error ≤2.0% for distance ≥7 ft
Error ≤10% for distance ≥1.5 ft
Propagation velocity relative to air
Included in total timebase error tolerance
Fused at 0.3 A
Fused at 0.15 A
+15°C to +25°C charge and discharge temp,
LCD backlight off. Operation of instrument with
backlight on or at temps below +10°C will
