AWG510 and AWG520 Rackmount Instructions
General Information
This introduction describes the AWG510 and AWG520 Arbitary Waveform
Generators Rack Adapter Kit, discusses its effects on AWG500 performance, and
lists its clearance requirements. Please read these topics before attempting to
rackmount your AWG500.
The remainder of this document refers to the AWG510 and AWG520 Arbitrary
Waveform Generators generically as AWG500.
RackĆAdapter Kit Description
The rack adapter kit is a collection of parts that, once installed, configure the
AWG500 for mounting in a standard 19-inch equipment rack.
NOTE. A standard equipment rack has rails with universal hole spacing. If you
use a rack with other than universal hole spacing, you may have to drill
additional mounting holes in the rack
Warranted Characteristics
The rack-adapter kit can be obtained in two ways:
HCustomers with a standard-version AWG500 can order the kit by part
number and install it to adapt the AWG500 for rackmounting.
HCustomers who purchase a new AWG500 can order it with option 1R.
Tektronix will ship option 1R AWG500 with the rack adapter kit hardware
already installed on the AWG500.
The instructions in this document cover the installation of option 1R AWG500,
as well as rack-adapting and installation of standard AWG500.
The dimensional drawing in Figure 2 on page 4 illustrates the rack-adapted
AWG500.
When the AWG500 is installed according to the instructions in this document,
the rackmounted AWG500 meets all warranted requirements except for those
listed in Environmental Requirements below. AWG500 mounted using methods
other than those described in these instructions may cause the AWG500 to not
meet its warranted requirements.
Cooling air enters on the bottom and right sides as shown in Figure 1.

AWG510 and AWG520 Rackmount Instructions
Clearance Requirements
The rack in which the rack adapted AWG500 is mounted must provide the
following clearance requirements:
HA minimum of seven inches (178 mm) of vertical space.
HA minimum width of 17 5/8 inches (448 mm) between the left- and
HA minimum inside height depth of at least 23 5/8 inches (600 mm).
WARNING. Adhering to these clearance requirements mounts the rack adapted
AWG500 with sufficient for air circulation and accommodation of the power
cord and mounting hardware. Failure to provide these clearances can result in
overheating and can cause the AWG500 to not operate properly and/or fail.

Installation Instructions
This section contains all procedures needed to rackmount the AWG500. Begin
with General Instructions, on page 6.
NOTE. Throughout this document, AWG500 are referred to as either “standard”
or “option 1R” versions. Standard versions are simply AWG500 not equipped
with option 1R. (The option-1R AWG500 are shipped from the factory already
configured for rackmounting.)
Equipment List
The following tools are required to attach the rack-adapter kit hardware, install
cabling hardware, and mount the rack-adapted AWG500 into a standard
equipment cabinet. All tools are standard tools that are readily available.
Depending on the type of installation you are doing, you may not need every
item in this list. See General Instructions on page 6 to determine which
equipment your particular installation requires.

Installation Instructions
General Instructions
First do these General Instructions to determine the type of installation, which
procedures to perform, and what tools are required.
Equipment Required: None
Procedure:
1.Prepare for installation: Be sure the rack meets the Clearance Requirements
on page 3.
2.Determine your installation type:
a.Field Conversion:
HYou have acquired the rack adapter kit, Tektronix part number
016-1675-50.
HYou are using the kit to adapt and install a standard version AWG500
in a standard 19-inch equipment rack.
b. Option 1R Installation:
HYou have acquired an option-1R version AWG500. (Option-1R
AWG500 are configured for rackmounting from the factory.)
HYou are installing the slide-out track assemblies shipped with the
option-1R AWG500 to an equipment rack and mounting the
option-1R AWG500 in the rack.
c.Reinstallation: Your AWG500 has been removed from the rack and you

Be sure you have done the procedure General Instructions.
The instructions found here accomplish the following:
HStrips the standard AWG500 of hardware not used when it is rack-adapted
HInstalls those hardware items from the rack-adapter kit that attach directly to
the AWG500
NOTE. All parts removed from the AWG500 in this procedure should be kept.
Some of those parts will be needed to perform this rack conversion and the
remainder will be needed if reconversion to a standard AWG500 configuration
is desired at a later time.

surface and its rear is facing you.
b. Unplug and detach cord.
2. Change the trim ring:
a. Orient the AWG500: Rotate the AWG500 so its front panel is facing you.
b. Remove the front cover (if installed): Grasp the front cover by its left and
right edges and snap it off of the front subpanel.
CAUTION. DO NOT touch the carbon contact points on the menu buttons
installed in the trim ring. Also, do not touch the contacts on the flex circuit
exposed when you remove the trim ring.
c.Remove the standard trim ring: Grasp the trim ring by its top edge; then
pry it up and lift it forward to snap it off of the front subpanel. Set the
trim ring aside face down on the work surface. See Figure 3.
