General safety summary
Use the product only as specified. Review the following safety precautions to avoid injury and prevent damage to this product or any products connected to it. Carefully read all instructions. Retain these instructions for future reference.
This product shall be used in accordance with local and national codes.
For correct and safe operation of the product, it is essential that you follow generally accepted safety procedures in addition to the safety precautions specified in this manual.
The product is designed to be used by trained personnel only.
Only qualified personnel who are aware of the hazards involved should remove the cover for repair, maintenance, or adjustment.
Before use, always check the product with a known source to be sure it is operating correctly.
This product is not intended for detection of hazardous voltages.
Use personal protective equipment to prevent shock and arc blast injury where hazardous live conductors are exposed.
To avoid fire or personal injury
Use proper power cord Use only the power cord specified for this product and certified for the country of use. Do not use the
provided power cord for other products.
Ground the product This product 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. Do not disable the power cord grounding connection.
Power disconnect The power cord disconnects the product from the power source. See instructions for the location. Do not
position the equipment so that it is difficult to operate the power cord; it must remain accessible to the user at all times to allow for quick disconnection if needed.
Connect and disconnect properly
Do not connect or disconnect probes or test leads while they are connected to a voltage source.
Use only insulated voltage probes, test leads, and adapters supplied with the product, or indicated by Tektronix to be suitable for the product.
Observe all terminal ratings To avoid fire or shock hazard, observe all rating and markings on the product. Consult the product manual
for further ratings information before making connections to the product. Do not exceed the Measurement Category (CAT) rating and voltage or current rating of the lowest rated individual component of a product, probe, or accessory. Use caution when using 1:1 test leads because the probe tip voltage is directly transmitted to the product.
Do not apply a potential to any terminal, including the common terminal, that exceeds the maximum rating of that terminal.
Do not operate without covers Do not operate this product with covers or panels removed, or with the case open. Hazardous voltage
exposure is possible.
Avoid exposed circuitry Do not touch exposed connections and components when power is present.
Do not operate with suspected failures

Specifications

Specifications
This chapter contains specifications for the instrument. All specifications are guaranteed unless noted as "typical." Typical specifications are provided for your convenience but are not guaranteed. Specifications that are marked with the symbol are checked in this manual. All specifications apply to all models unless noted otherwise.
To meet specifications, these conditions must first be met:
The instrument must have been calibrated in an ambient temperature between 18 °C and 28 °C (64 °F and 82 °F).
The instrument must be operating within the environmental limits. (See Environmental specifications on page 34.)
The instrument must be powered from a source that meets the specifications. (See Power supply system on page 33.)
The instrument must have been operating continuously for at least 20 minutes within the specified operating temperature range.
You must perform the Signal Path Compensation procedure after the warmup period. See the online help for instructions on how to perform signal path compensation. If the ambient temperature changes more than 5 °C (9 °F) , repeat the procedure.

Delta-time measurement accuracy
The formula to calculate delta-time measurement accuracy (DTA) for a given instrument setting and input signal is as follows (assumes insignificant signal content above Nyquist frequency):
SR 1 = Slew Rate (1st Edge) around 1st point in measurement
SR 2 = Slew Rate (2nd Edge) around 2nd point in measurement
N = input-referred guaranteed noise limit (V
TBA = timebase accuracy or Reference Frequency Error t p = delta-time measurement duration (sec)
(assume edge shape that results from Gaussian filter response)
The term under the square root sign is the stability and is due to TIE (Time Interval Error). The errors due to this term occur throughout a single-shot measurement. The second term is due to both the absolute center-frequency accuracy and the center-frequency stability of the timebase and varies between multiple single-shot measurements over the observation interval (the amount of time from the first single-shot measurement to the final single-shot measurement).
RMS
)
The formulas assume negligible errors due to measurement interpolation, and apply only
Note:
when the interpolated sample rate is 25 GS/s or higher.

Performance verification procedures

Performance verification procedures
This chapter contains performance verification procedures for the specifications marked with the symbol. The following equipment, or a suitable equivalent, is required to complete these procedures.
The performance verification procedures verify the performance of your instrument. They do not adjust your instrument. If your instrument fails any of the performance verification tests, repeat the failing test, verifying that the test equipment and settings are correct. If the instrument continues to fail a test, contact Tektronix Customer Support for assistance.
These procedures cover all 5 Series B MSO instruments (MSO54B, MSO56B, MSO58B).
Print the test records on the following pages and use them to record the performance test results for your oscilloscope. Disregard checks and test records that do not apply to the specific model you are testing.
Note: Completion of the performance verification procedure does not update the instrument time and date.
