Input and Output
The two connectors on the front panel of the 80A01 module provide connections
Connectors for the input and output signals. Both connectors are SMA female connectors.
Connector Care. Never attach a cable to a sampling-module connector if the cable
has a worn or damaged connector because you may damage the sampling-mod-
ule connector. Use extra care when attaching or removing a cable from the
connectors. Turn only the nut, not the cable. When attaching a cable to a
sampling-module connector, align the connectors carefully before turning the
nut. Use light finger pressure to make this initial connection. Then tighten the
nut lightly with a wrench.
NOTE. For best repeatability and to prolong connector life, use a torque wrench
and tighten the connection to the range of 79-112 N@cm (7-10 inSlb).
If the module connectors will receive heavy use, such as in a production
environment, you should install adapters (such as a Tektronix 015-0549-xx for
3.5 mm connectors) on the module to make connections to the device under test.

Power LED

There is one LED on the front panel of the 80A01 module that indicates whether
or not the module is receiving power. The 80A01 module receives power through
the Tekprobe-Sample interface. When the module is receiving power the LED is
lit. If the module is installed but is not receiving power, check that the module is
seated correctly. Additionally, turn the hold-down screw clockwise to make sure
the module is installed tightly.
