Preface

Manual Structure

This is the service manual for the RTX100A ISDB-T RF Signal Generator. This
manual contains information needed to service an RTX100A to the module level.

This manual is divided into sections, such as Specifications and Theory of

Operation. Furthermore, some sections are divided into subsections, such as
Product Description and Removal and Installation Procedures.

Sections containing procedures also contain introductions to those procedures.
Be sure to read these introductions because they provide information needed to
do the service correctly and efficiently. The following are brief descriptions of
each manual section.

H Specifications contains a description of the RTX100A and the characteristics

that apply to it.

H Theory of Operation contains circuit descriptions that support service to the

module level.

H Performance Verification contains procedures for confirming that an

RTX100A functions properly and meets warranted characteristics.

H Adjustment Procedures contains procedures for adjusting the RTX100A to

meet warranted characteristics.

H Maintenance contains information and procedures for performing preventive

and corrective maintenance of an RTX100A. These instructions include
cleaning, module removal and installation, and fault isolation to the module
level.

H Options contains descriptions of factory-installed options and field-upgrad-

able options.

H Diagrams contains block diagram and interconnection diagram.

H Replaceable Parts List includes a table of all replaceable modules, their

descriptions, and their Tektronix part numbers.

Preface

Manual Conventions

This manual uses certain conventions with which you should become familiar.

Some sections of the manual contain procedures for you to perform. To keep
those instructions clear and consistent, this manual uses the following
conventions:

H Names of front panel controls and menus appear in the same case (initial

capitals, all uppercase, and so forth) in the manual as is used on the
RTX100A front panel and menus.

H Instruction steps are numbered unless there is only one step.

H Bold text refers to specific interface elements that you are instructed to

select, click, or clear .

Example: To power on the RTX100A, press the ON/STBY switch.

H Italic text refers to document names or sections. Italics are also used in

NOTES, CAUTIONS, and WARNINGS.

Modules

Safety

Throughout this manual, any replaceable component, assembly, or part of the
RTX100A is referred to generically as a module. In general, a module is an
assembly (like a circuit board), rather than a component (like a resistor or an
integrated circuit). Sometimes a single component is a module. For example, the
chassis of the RTX100A is a module.

Symbols and terms related to safety appear in the General Safety Summary and
Service Safety Summary near the beginning of this manual.

Finding Other Information

Other documentation for the RTX100A includes:

H The RTX100A ISDB-T RF Signal Generator User Manual (Tektronix part

Example: The Diagrams section, beginning on page 7-1, includes a block
diagram and an interconnect diagram.

number 071-1755-XX) contains a tutorial to quickly describe how to operate
the RTX100A. It also includes an in-depth discussion on how to use the
RTX100A features.

RTX100A ISDB-T RF Signal Generator Service Manual

Introduction

This manual contains information needed to properly s ervice the RTX100A
ISDB-T RF Signal Generator, as well as general information critical to safe and
effective servicing.

To prevent personal injury or damage to the RTX100A, consider the following
before attempting service:

H The procedures in this manual should be performed only by a qualified

service person.

H Read the General Safety Summary and the Service Safety Summary,

beginning on page vii.

When using this manual for servicing, be sure to follow all warnings, cautions,
and notes.

Performance Check Interval

Generally, the performance check described in Section 3, Performance Verifica­tion, should be done every 12 months. In addition, a performance check is

recommended after module replacement.

Strategy for Servicing

If the RTX100A does not meet performance criteria, repair is necessary.

This manual contains all the information needed for periodic maintenance of the
RTX100A.

This manual also contains all information for corrective maintenance down to the
module level. To isolate a failure to a module, use the fault isolation procedures
found in Troubleshooting, part of Section 5, Maintenance. To remove and
replace any failed module, follow the instructions in Removal and Installation
Procedures, also part of Section 5. After isolating a faulty module, replace it
with a fully-tested module obtained from the factory. Section 8, Replaceable
Parts List, contains part number and ordering information for all replaceable
modules.

Carrier modulation QPSK, 16 QAM, 64 QAM

NOTE: DPQSK is not supported. If DPQSK modulation is used in a broadcast transport stream,
the stream is modulated into QPSK. However, the signal output from the ASI connector is not
modulated into QPSK.

Inner coding Vitervi (1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8)

Outer coding Reed Solomon (204, 188)

Time interval 0,1, 2, 4, 8, 16

Guard interval 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32
