Connect and Disconnect Properly. Do not connect or disconnect probes or test
leads while they are connected to a voltage source.
Ground the Product. The mainframe is grounded through the grounding
conductor of the power cord. To avoid electric shock, the grounding conductor
must be connected to earth ground. Before making connections to the input or
output terminals of the product, ensure that the product is properly grounded.
Ground the Product. The modules are indirectly grounded through the grounding
conductor of the mainframe power cord. To avoid electric shock, the grounding
conductor must be connected to earth ground. Before making connections to the
input or output terminals of the product, ensure that the product is properly
grounded.
Observe All Terminal Ratings. To avoid fire or shock hazard, observe all ratings
and markings on the product. Consult the product manual for further ratings
information before making connections to the product.
The inputs are not rated for connection to mains or Category II, III, or IV
circuits.
Do not apply a potential to any terminal, including the common terminal, that
exceeds the maximum rating of that terminal.
Power Disconnect. The power switch disconnects the product from the power
source. See instructions for the location. Do not block the power switch; it must
remain accessible to the user at all times.
Do Not Operate Without Covers. Do not operate this product with covers or panels
removed.
Use Proper Fuse. Use only the fuse type and rating specified for this product.

Preface
Manual Structure
This is the service manual for the DSA8200 Digital Serial Analyzer and the
modules that install in the instrument (except for the 80A03 module).
NOTE. The 80A03 instruction manual contains its own specifications and
servicing information.
Read this preface to learn how this manual is structured, what conventions it
uses, and where you can find other information related to servicing this product.
Read the Introduction following this preface for safety and other important
background information needed before servicing this product.
This manual is divided into chapters, which are made up of related subordinate
topics. These topics can be cross referenced as sections.
Be sure to read the introductions to all procedures. These introductions provide
important information needed to do the service correctly, safely, and efficiently.
Manual Conventions
Modules
Replaceable Parts
Safety
This manual uses certain conventions that you should become familiar with
before attempting service.
Throughout this manual, the term module appears. A module is composed of
electrical and mechanical assemblies, circuit cards, interconnecting cables, and a
user-accessible front panel. References to a module are different than references
to products such as “Sampling modules”, “Phase Reference modules”, or
“Accessory modules”, which are products installed in the instrument compartments.
This manual refers to any field-replaceable assembly or mechanical part by its
name or generically as a replaceable part. In general, a replaceable part is any
circuit board or assembly, such as a hard disk drive, or a mechanical part, such as
I/O port connectors, that is listed in the replaceable parts list of Chapter 8.
Symbols and terms related to safety appear in the General Safety Summary found
at the beginning of this manual.

Operating Requirements
Rackmount Requirements
Read this section before attempting any installation procedures. This section
describes site considerations, power requirements, and ground connections for
your instrument.
The instrument is designed to operate on a bench or on a cart in the normal
position (on the bottom feet). For proper cooling, at least two inches (5.1 cm) of
clearance is recommended on the sides of the instrument.
You can also operate the instrument while it rests on its rear feet. Make sure that
you properly route any cables coming out of the rear of the instrument to avoid
damaging them.
CAUTION. Keep the bottom of the instrument clear of obstructions to ensure
proper cooling.
Specifications in chapter 1 list the operating requirements for the instrument.
Power source and temperature, humidity, and altitude are listed.
Rackmount instructions are provided with the Option 1R rackmount kit. For

Install the Sampling Modules
WARNING. Do not install or remove any sampling modules while the instrument
is powered on. Electrical shock may occur. Always power the instrument down
before attempting to remove or insert any sampling module to avoid potential
injury from shock.
CAUTION. Sampling modules are inherently vulnerable to static damage. Always
observe static-safe procedures and cautions as outlined in your sampling module
user manual.
Check Your Sampling
Module Manual(s)
Large-module compartments (2)
Small-module compartments (4)
Connect ESD wrist strap here
Read the sampling-module user manual for instructions on how to install your
sampling modules.
NOTE. After first installing a sampling module(s) or after moving a sampling
module from one compartment to another, you should run compensation from the
Utilities menu to ensure the instrument meets its accuracy specifications. You
must run a compensation (accessed from the Utilities menu) whenever the
extender configuration is changed from that present at the last compensation. In
short, if you install or remove an 80E00 extender, run a compensation. If you
exchange an extender for one of a different length, run a compensation.
Figure 1--1 shows compartments for both large and small sampling modules,
along with the plug-in connector for the ESD wrist strap that you must use to
install and remove these modules.

Maximum Configuration
You can install up to two large sampling modules and four small modules for a
maximum of 12 inputs. Of these inputs, only eight inputs can be active at one
time. Also, note that installing a large module may disable a small-module
compartment. Refer to the DSA8200 Quick Start user manual for compartment
interaction.
Install probes, cables, and other connection accessories to your sampling
modules as appropriate for your application and sampling module. Again,
consult your sampling-module and connection-accessory manuals. Continue with
the next section after installing the sampling modules.
Connect the Peripherals
The peripheral connections are mostly the same as those you would make on a
personal computer. The connection points are shown in Figure 1--2. See
Table 1--1 on page 1--3 for additional connection information.
NOTE. Before installing peripheral accessories to connectors (mouse, keyboard,
etc.), power down the instrument. See Powering Off the Instrument on page .
