Required Test Equipment
In addition to the performance verification fixture and accessories, you will need
the test equipment listed in Table 2 and the performance verification software to
run the performance verification and certification procedures. This equipment
must be ordered separately from the performance verification test fixture.
The performance verification software is available on the TLA Application CD
that comes with your Tektronix logic analyzer. The software must be installed on
the hard disk of your Tektronix logic analyzer mainframe before you can use it.
Refer to the TLA5000 Series Logic Analyzer Mainframe Service Manual
(TLACAL1 fixture) or the TLA7Axx Logic Analyzer Module Service Manual
(TLACAL2 fixture) for instructions on installing and using the software.

Installation Instructions
TLACAL1 & TLACAL2 Performance Verification Fixture Instructions
This section describes line fuse and power cord information for both TLACAL1
and TLACAL2 test fixtures. For detailed installation instructions, connection
procedures, and operation procedures, refer to the TLA5000 Series Logic
Analyzer Mainframe Service Manual (TLACAL1 fixture) or the TLA7Axx Logic
Analyzer Module Service Manual (TLACAL2 fixture).
Line Fuse Information
Setting the Line Voltage or
Replacing a Fuse
Check that the line fuse is correct for your application; see Table 4. The fuse and
line cord connector are located at the back of the instrument.
WARNING. To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the power cord before removing
the line fuse.
Table 4: TLACAL2 line fuses
Line voltage Description Tektronix part number
100 V to 120 V operation 5.0 mm x 20 mm, 1.0 A FAST 250 V 159-0356-00
200 V to 240 V operation 5.0 mm x 20 mm, 0.5 A FAST 250 V 159-0351-00
The line voltage is properly set at the factory. If you need to change the line
voltage setting, complete the following steps:
1. Disconnect the power cord at the rear of the instrument.
2. Locate the line selector/fuse holder at the rear of the instrument. The voltage
setting appears in the small window on the line selector.
3. Note the fuse setting, either 115 V or 230 V. If you need to change the line
voltage selection or if you need to change the line fuse, continue with the
following steps.
4. Pry open the latch over the line voltage selector with a small flat-blade
screwdriver.
5. Remove the red fuse holder with the flat-blade screwdriver.
6. Remove the fuse. If you are replacing a blown fuse, install the fuse holder
and fasten the latch in place.
7. Remove the conversion clip from its current location and install it on the
other side of the fuse holder.
8. Turn the fuse holder over.
9. Install the new fuse into the holder (see Table 4 for fuse information).

11. Fasten the latch in place.
Connecting the Line Cord
Additional Installation and
Operating Instructions
Connect the line cord to the rear of the instrument. Connect the other end of the
line cord to the appropriate power connector.
Refer to the Performance Verification chapter of the TLA5000 Series Logic
Analyzer Mainframe Service Manual (TLACAL1 fixture) or the TLA7Axx Logic
Analyzer Module Service Manual (TLACAL2 fixture) for detailed installation
instructions, connection procedures, and operation procedures.
CAUTION. Do not connect or disconnect any ribbon cables, module interface
cards, or the probe interface card to or from the test fixture while power is
applied. Doing so will damage the fixture, the module interface cards, or the
probe interface card. Refer to the TLA7Axx Logic Analyzer Module Service
Manual for complete installation instructions.
Performance Verification Fixture Service
Both the TLACAL1 and TLACAL2 fixtures are calibrated at the factory. No
additional calibration is required. If your fixture requires servicing or calibration
you must return the fixture and all accessories to Tektronix.
Preventive Maintenance
8
Preventive maintenance mainly consists of periodic cleaning. Periodic cleaning
reduces instrument breakdown and increases reliability. Clean the instrument as
needed, based on the operating environment. Dirty conditions may require more
frequent cleaning than computer room conditions.
Clean the exterior surfaces with a dry, lint-free cloth or a soft-bristle brush. If dirt
remains, use a cloth or swab dampened with a 75% isopropyl alcohol solution. A
swab is useful for cleaning in narrow spaces around the controls and connectors.
Do not use abrasive compounds on any part of the instrument.
TLACAL1 & TLACAL2 Performance Verification Fixture
Specifications
TLACAL1 & TLACAL2 Performance Verification Fixture Instructions
CAUTION. Avoid getting moisture inside the instrument during external cleaning;
use only enough solution to dampen the cloth or swab.
Use only deionized water when cleaning. Use a 75% isopropyl alcohol solution
as a cleanser and rinse with deionized water.
Do not use chemical cleaning agents; they may damage the instrument. Avoid
chemicals that contain benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone, or similar solvents.
The Table 5 provides abbreviated information on performance verification fixture
specifications. For detailed specifications, refer to the TLA5000 Series Logic
Analyzer Mainframe Service Manual (TLACAL1 fixture) or the TLA7Axx Logic
Analyzer Module Service Manual (TLACAL2 fixture).

Terminals on this product may have different installation (overvoltage) category designations. The
installation categories are:
CAT III Distribution-level mains (usually permanently connected). Equipment at this level is
typically in a fixed industrial location.
CAT II Local-level mains (wall sockets). Equipment at this level includes appliances, portable
tools, and similar products. Equipment is usually cord-connected.
CAT I Secondary (signal level) or battery operated circuits of electronic equipment.
Typically the internal environment inside a product is considered to be t he same as the external.
Products should be used only in the environment for which they are rated.
Pollution Degree 1 No pollution or only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. Products in
this category are generally encapsulated, hermetically sealed, or
located in clean rooms.
Pollution Degree 2 Normally only dry, nonconductive poll ution occurs. Occasionally a
temporary conductivity that is caused by condensation must be
expected. This location is a typical office/home environment.
Temporary condensation occurs only when the product is out of
service.
Pollution Degree 3 Conductive pollution, or dry, nonconductive pollution that becomes
conductive due to condensation. These are sheltered locations
where neither temperature nor humidity is controlled. The area is
protected from direct sunshine, rain, or direct wind.
Pollution Degree 4 Pollution that generates persistent conductivity through conductive
dust, rain, or snow. Typical outdoor locations.
