Basic Turn On and Self
WVR5200 Waveform Rasterizer Specifications and Performance Verification
Requirements
SMPTE 424M /425M (3 Gb/s) input with
CRC checking.
Complies with SMPTE 12M LTC
specifications, capable of being locked to
an NTSC composite analog video source.
Plugs into the REMOTE port, used
to make the LTC and ground closure
interface tests.
0 V to 5 V range, 2% or better accuracy.
Computer with web browser and Ethernet
port; appropriate length Ethernet cable
(8 conductor RJ-45 terminations, either
straight through or crossover).
1. Connect the AC line cord to the rear of the instrument and to a 100 to
240 VAC source. Press the Power button to turn the instrument on.
Test
2. After about 30 seconds, the power-on diagnostic page should appear on the
screen.
3. Verify that all self tests pass. Any failures will be shown in red. The results of
the power-on diagnostics are erased from the screen, but you can view the
results by selecting CONFIG > Utilities > View Diagnostics Log > SEL.
4. After the diagnostics are finished, the instrument state is restored. When the
progress indicator in the status bar is finished, the instrument has finished
initializing.
5. Record Pass or Fail for the POST (Power On Self Test) in the test record.
6. If it is still open, exit the Diagnostics Log.

Tektronix WFM7120 or WFM8300
NOTE.
Only one waveform monitor is
needed for the tests, so a 270M/1.5G/3G
monitor will meet both of the above
requirements.
