If any licensed application fails to open correctly, contact your Tektronix
representative.
Use the following procedure to install any of the hardware upgrades.
WARNING. To avoid electric shock, switch off the instrument power, then
disconnect the power cord from the mains power. Failure to do so can cause
injury or death.
12
In order to install any of the hardware upgrades you must first remove the
cabinet and the circuit board retaining plate. Follow these steps to access the
module bay:
1. Power down the system and unplug the power cord.
MTS4UP MTS400 Series Upgrade Kits
Upgrade Instructions
2. Disconnect any cables from the rear panel. Note the location of any cables
for reinstallation.
3. Install the protective cover on the front of the instrument and place the
cabinet on the working surface with the rear panel facing up.
4. Remove the handle from the side of the instrument and remove the four feet
from the rear of the instrument. Retain the screws for reinstallation.
WARNING. To prevent damage to the EMI shielding and injury to yourself, use
care when touching the EMI shielding strips around the front of the chassis. If
you accidentally bend the “fingers” of the strip, it could create sharp protruding
edges, which may cut you as you handle the chassis.
5. Use a wrench as a lever to pry the cabinet loose from the chassis. Loosen
each side alternately until the cabinet is released from the EMI gasket.
6. Slide the cabinet up and off the chassis.
7. Set the instrument onto the work surface so the bottom is down, as shown in
Figure 6.
8. Remove the five T-15 screws securing the circuit board retaining plate to the
chasis and lift it away (see Figure 6).
