Related Manual

This manual uses the following terms:

Stream: Generic term for transport streams and data streams of Non TS format (data format other than transport stream format).

S-TMCC (Single TMCC): Transport stream to which TMCC (Transmission and Multiplexing Conﬁguration Control) information is inserted into the 8 bytes in its Reed-Solomon code area (16 bytes). It is deﬁnedintheISDB-S (Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting-Satellite) system.

M-TMCC (Multi TMCC): Transport stream to which TMCC information is inserted into the sync byte area, and having super frame structure. It is deﬁned in the ISDB-S system.

Broadcast transport stream: Transport stream deﬁned in ARIB STD-B31.

The following related documentation for the instrument is available:

The RTX100B ISDB-T RF Signal Generator Service Manual (Tektronix part number 071-1932-XX) describes how to maintain and service the RTX100B and provides a complete module-level description of the operation of the instrument. This manual is an optional accessory.

Getting Started

Installation

1. Inspect the shi

pping carton for external damage, which indicates possible

damage to the instrument.

2. Remove the RTX

100B from the shipping carton.

3. Check that the instrument has not been damaged in transit. The exterior should not have any s

cratches or impact marks. Before shipment the instrument is

thoroughly inspected for mechanical defects.

NOTE. Save the shipping carton and packaging materials for instrument

repackaging in case shipment becomes necessary.

4. Verify that the shipping carton contains the instrument, the standard accessories, and any optional accessories that you ordered.

5. Perform the functional check procedure after installing the instrument. (See page 1-9, Functional Check Procedure.)

Contact your local Tektronix Field Ofﬁce or representative if there is a problem with your instrument or if your shipment is incomplete.

Environment Operating

Requirements

Before you install the instrument, refer to the General Safety Summary section at the front of this manual for power source, grounding, and other safety information.

Verify that the location of your installation has the proper operating environment.

CAUTION. Damage to the instrument can occur if this instrument is powered on at

temperatures outside of the speciﬁed temperature range.

CAUTION. The instrument does not have a power switch, but does have an

on/standby switch. When you connect the power cable to the AC line connector, power

is applied to the power supply standby circuit of the instrument. Read the power application instructions before plugging the power cable into a power source. (See page 1-6, Applying Power to the Instrument.)

Verify that you are using the proper power cord for your location. (See page 1-6, Applying Power to the Instrument.) Connect the power cord from the rear-panel power connector to the power system.

CAUTION. The instrument is shipped with a power cord appropriate for use with

your power systems (normal 115 V power system or 230 V power system). If the

nstrument is to be used with a power system other than that speciﬁed in the order,

i the power cord must be replaced with one appropriate for the power source used. (See Table 1-1 on page 1-2.)

Applying Power to the

Instrument

After you have veriﬁed the operating environment, AC line, and power cord requirements, plug the power cord into the power connector on the rear panel, and then plug the power cord into the local power s ource. (See Figure 1-1.)

Getting Started

Power On. Press the On/Standby switch to power on the instrument. (See Figure 1-2.) After you power on the instrument, verify that the fan on the re ar panel is operating. To verify that the fan is operating, place your hand behind the right side of the instrument. You should be able to feel the fan’s air ﬂow.

CAUTION

you turn on the instrument. Ser ious damage to your instrument can occur from overheating if the cooling fan is not operating.
