The following tables list the specifications for the Tektronix WFM6100,
WFM7000, and WFM7100 Waveform Monitors with Option FP installed. Items
listed in the Performance Requirement column are generally quantitative, and
can be tested by the Performance Verification procedure in Section 2 of this
manual. Items listed in the Reference Information column are useful operating
parameters that have typical values; information in this column is not guaranteed.
The specifications listed in the Electrical Specifications portion of these tables
apply over an ambient temperature range of +0 _Cto+40_C. The rated
accuracies are valid when the instrument is calibrated in an ambient temperature
range of +20 _Cto+30_C.
Most of the error seen on the display
comes from the inherent ringing in the
digital data. The response of the monitor is
close to the theoretical limit of a perfect
sinx/x reconstruction filter.

A three term Blackman pulse with the same

a better choice for most testing. See Digital

For horizontal timing, zero delay analog
signals have coincident syncs. For digital

analog signal is conincident with the

The Phase Correlation Meter Speed setting
determines how quickly the meter reacts to
changes in phase relationship. The meter
reading is actually an average of correlation
over time, and this setting determines how
many samples are used to calculate the
average. The instrument uses the fewest
samples when this setting is 1, and the
meter reacts almost instantaneously. The
instrument uses the most samples when
the setting is 20, and the meter reacts
much more slowly. Experiment to find the
setting that best fits your application

CharacteristicPerformance requirementReference information
Audio Video Delay measurementDisplays the delay of embedded
audio relative to SDI video. Shows
delay in milliseconds and in fields.
Requires SDI signal from TG700 in
AV Timing mode.
Measurement RangeAt least --2 to +2 seconds: a negative
reading indicates audio is advanced
with respect to video; a positive
reading indicates it is delayed.
Range depends on the repetition
rate of the test signal. Specification
applies for TG700 AV Timing mode,
which has a nominal 5 second
repetition rate.

Performance Verification
Performance Verification
This section contains a collection of manual procedures for verifying that the
following waveform monitor products perform as warranted:
HWFM7100 models (with Option FP) and their options
HWFM7000 models (with Option FP) and their options
HWFM6100 models (with Option FP) and their options
This chapter is divided into two sections: Incoming Inspection Procedures and
Performance Verification Procedures. The test procedures in this chapter provide
for an extensive confirmation of performance and functionality.
NOTE. Before performing any of the procedures and tests in this manual, the
waveform monitor must have been operating for a warm--up period of at least 20
minutes and must be operating at an ambient temperature as listed in
Table 1--43.

Incoming Inspection
This section contains functional/operational checks appropriate to an incoming
inspection.
The waveform monitor must have been operating for a warm-up period of at
least 20 minutes, and must be operating at an ambient temperature as listed in
Table 1--43 on page 1--39.
Use the following procedures to check the basic functionality of WFM6100,
WFM7000, and WFM7100 Waveform Monitorswith Option FP installed. The
checks are arranged by model and option so that you can choose the sections that
are appropriate for your instrument. The last two sections are for less critical
waveform monitor features: the ground closure and Ethernet ports. You need
only test these if you intend to use them. In general, you should test in the order
presented, since later tests might depend on items checked in the earlier tests.

Basic Turn On and
Self Test
1.Connect an XGA monitor to the EXT DISPLAY connector on the rear of
the waveform monitor.
2.Connect the AC line cord to the rear of the instrument and to a 100 to
240 VAC source. There is no power switch on the waveform monitor, so the
instrument will turn on as soon as you apply power.
3.Look at the front panel immediately after you apply power. The MAG,
LINE SEL,andCURSOR buttons should be lit. The other front-panel
buttons will light one at a time, in sequence. Verify that all buttons do light.
The sequence will repeat until the Boot Loader process completes (approximately 30 seconds).
4.Record pass or fail in the test record for Front Panel LEDs.
5.After about 50 seconds, the power-on diagnostic page should appear on the
monitor.
6.Verify that all self tests pass. Any failures will be shown in red. The results
of the power-on diagnostics are erased from the screen, but you can view the
results by selecting CONFIG > Utilities > View Diagnostics Log > SEL.
7.After the diagnostics are finished, the instrument state is restored. When the
progress indicator in the status bar is finished, the instrument has finished
initializing.
Restore the Factory
Presets

8.Record Pass or Fail for the POST in the test record.
9.If it is still open, exit the Diagnostics Log.
1.Follow these steps to reset the waveform monitor to the Factory Presets:
a.Press and hold the PRESET button.
b. Select Recall Preset > Recall Factory Preset.
c.Press the SEL button.
1.Set the waveform monitor to the Factory Presets (see above). Wait for the
process to complete as indicated by the progress indicator. Record Pass or
Fail in the test record.
2.Connect a 525/270 color bar signal from DVG1 to the SDI A input
3.Press FULL to set the active tile to full screen.
4.Turn the HORIZONTAL and VERTICAL knobs and verify the waveform
moves appropriately.

5.Press HELP to display the online help.
6.Press each of the front panel buttons.
Each button should flash as you press it. Most buttons will bring up help text
related to that button in the right pane of the help screen. Some buttons, such
as the presets, all bring up the same information, so you may need to
alternate between preset buttons and another button to see the text change.
The navigation keys (the four arrow keys and the SEL key) do not bring up
help text. They are used to navigate the help panes and content.
7.Press the right arrow key until the Help Contents pane in the upper-left
corner is highlighted.
8.Turn the GENERAL knob and verify the selector box moves up and down
the list of topics.
9.Press HELP to exit help.
10. Record Pass or Fail for Buttons and Knobs in the test record.
LCD Pixel Defects
1.Set the waveform monitor to display a white screen:
a.Press the CONFIG button.
b. Select Utilities > Screen Solid Color > Select Color > White
c.Press the SEL button.
2.Count any pixels stuck low (not white).
3.While the screen is all white, inspect for visible defects that exceed the limits
in Table 2--2 (page 2--23).
NOTE. Inspection should be done from 18” away from the display, under normal
room lighting. Loose dust on the front of the screen does not constitute a defect
4.Press the SEL button to cancel the white screen.
5.Set the waveform monitor for an all black screen:
a.Select Utilities > Screen Solid Color > Select Color > Black
b. Press the SEL button.

menu.
21. Select Audio Input > Embedded.
22. Press the AUDIO button.
23. Verify that the level meter bars have a stair step pattern from –35 dB on
channel 1 to 0 dB on channel 8.
NOTE. If level-meter bars indicate that audio is not present, set the TG2000
module number of groups to 2 even if it appears to be set already.
24. Record Pass or Fail for Embedded Display in the test record.
25. Press and hold the Display Select button 4 to display the AUDIO pop-up
menu.
