ySummary

Review the fo this product or any products connected to it.

To avoid pot

Only qualiﬁed personnel should perform service procedures.

While using this product, you may need to access other parts of a larger system. Read the safety sections of the other component manuals for warnings and cautions r

Use proper power cord. Use only the power cord speciﬁed for this product and certiﬁed for the country of use.

Ground the product. This product is grounded through the g rounding 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.

Observe all terminal ratings. To a void 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.

llowing safety precautions to avoid injury and prevent damage to

ential hazards, use this product only as speciﬁed.

elated to operating the system.

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 cord disconnects the product from the power source. Donotblockthepowercord;itmustremain accessible to the user at all times.

Do not operate without covers. Do not operate this product with covers or panels removed.

Do not operate with suspected failures. If you suspect that there is damage to this product, have it inspected by qualiﬁed service personnel.

Avoid exposed circuitry. Do not touch exposed connections and components when power is present.

Performance Veriﬁcation

The procedures in this section allow you to verify the performance of the following MTS4000 MPEG Test System components:

ASI Interface

10 G Interface

MTS4000 Platform and System Software

Preparation

Required Equipment

Before you begin the Performance Veriﬁcation procedures, review the following information:

Ensure that the procedures are performed only by qualiﬁed service personnel who have read the General Safety Summary at the front of this manual.

Ensure that the service personnel are familiar with system operation (refer to the MTS4000 MPEG Test System Quick Start User Manual).

You will need the following equipment to perform the veriﬁcation procedures:

75 Ω BNC-to-BNC cable (quantity of one) Tektronix part number 174-4954-00.

RJ45 network cable.

850 nm ﬁber cable.

A copy of the “sym1.mpg” transport stream ﬁle.

NOTE. The “sym1.mpg” transport stream ﬁle is supplied with every instrument in

the following directory: C:\Test Streams.

You can also obtain this ﬁ le from the MTS4000 Documentation Browser CD or from the Tclips MPEG Test Stream Software DVD.

Prepare the Instrument

MTS4000 Speciﬁcations and Performance Veriﬁcation 9

Perform the following steps to prepare the instrument to be tested:

1. Make sure the dongle is securely installed on a USB port.

2. Make the following cable connections on the instrument.

Connect the 75 Ω BNC-to-BNC cable b etween the ASI 3 and ASI 4 ports

on the ASI card.

Connect the RJ45 network c able between the two network connectors on

the instrument side panel.

Connect the 850 nm ﬁber cable between the ports on the 10G card (if

installed).

NOTE. Do not attempt to perform the two loopback test simultaneously. First test

the 1G Ethernet ports, then if installed, test the 10G optical ports.

1. Verify that the ports are active.

a. 1G Standard Ethernet ports: With a loopback cable connected, verify

that the LEDs on the Et cable connections if the LEDs are off.

b. 10G Optical Interface ports: With a loopback cable connected, verify that

the LEDs on the optical por connections if the LEDs are off.

NOTE. For ease of identifying the ports, if you need to verify both the 1G Standard

Ethernet ports and the 10G Optical ports, do not have both loopback cables connected at the same time.
