MTG100 and MTG300 Rackmount Upgrade Instructions

Kit Description

NOTE. The following conventions apply throughout this document:

H The MTG100 and MTG300 MPEG Generator is simply referred to as the

“MPEG generator.”

H The MPEG generator is referred to as being either a “standard” or

“Option 1R” version. The “standard” MPEG generator does not include
rackmounting hardware. The “Option 1R” MPEG generators have
rackmounting hardware on the sides of the instrument’s cabinet.

The MTG100 and MTG300 Rackmount (Option 1R) Upgrade Kit provides parts
and instructions for you to perform the following tasks:

H Replace the standard cabinet on your MPEG generator with an Option 1R

(rackmount ready) cabinet

H Install the MPEG generator into a standard 19-inch equipment rack

If your MPEG generator was ordered with Option 1R, Tektronix shipped the
MPEG generator with the rackmount cabinet already installed. If this is your
case, you will need to perform only the instructions for mounting your MPEG
generator into an equipment rack.

Products

NOTE. A standard equipment rack has rails with universal hole spacing. If your
equipment rack uses hole spacing that is different than universal hole spacing,
you may have to drill additional mounting holes in the rack to accommodate the
mounting hardware included in this kit.

CAUTION. Mounting the MPEG generator into an equipment rack requires
certain minimum clearances around the instrument. Be sure to read the
information in Environmental Requirements before you install the MPEG
generator into an equipment rack.

If you rackmount the MPEG generator using methods that are different than
those described in these instructions, the MPEG generator may not meet its
warranted specifications.

Kit Description

Environmental Requirements

Mounting the MPEG generator into an equipment rack requires certain minimum
clearances around the instrument. When the MPEG generator is installed in an
equipment rack according to the instructions in this document, the rackmounted
MPEG generator m eets all warranted specifications.

The rack into which the rack-adapted MPEG generator is mounted must provide
the following clearance requirements:

CAUTION. If you adhere to these clearance requirements when you rackmount the
MPEG generator, the instrument will have sufficient air circulation and room to
accommodate the power cord and mounting hardware. Failure to provide t hese
clearances can result in overheating and can cause the MPEG generator to not
operate properly and/or fail.

H A minimum of 50 mm (2 inches) of vertical space above the instrument.

H A minimum of 75 mm (3 inches) of rear space.

H A minimum width of 455 mm (17.9 inches) between the left- and right-front

rails in the rack.

H A minimum inside height depth of at least 635 mm (25 inches).

Figure 1 shows the dimensions of the MPEG generator after the rackmount
cabinet is installed.
