Rack Installation
Rack Installation
Install your instrument into a standard instrumentation rack and is shipped with
a rackmount kit.
This section provides instructions for doing the following:
Installing the slides onto your product if they are not already installed
Installing the rails into a standard 19-inch equipment rack
Installing the instrument into the rails in the rack
WARNING. To avoid personal injury and instrument damage, do not mix parts
from different rackmount kits. The locking feature might not function, resulting in
product falling out of the rack when it is removed from the rack.
Your instrument ships with hardware for rackmounting and fits in a standard
19-inch rack. Requirements of the rack follow:
Spacing between the front rails must be at least 17-¾ inches.
Front-to-rear rail spacing must be between 15-½ and 28 inches.
Six inches of clearance between the instrument rear panel and any rear cabinet
panel for connector space and to provide adequate air circulation.
WVR8200 and WVR8300 System Integrator 3

Rack Installation
Mounting the Slide Tracks This procedure covers rear rail mounting details for both deep and shallow racks.
1. Mount the rails using the enclosed hardware as shown below.
NOTE. Right hand and left hand stationary section is designated by the RH and
the LH marked on the rails. Stop latch holes should be towards the bottom when
slides are in place. (The right hand rail is shown.)
2. Screw-mount to the front rail.
If the front rail mounting hole is not tapped, use a bar nut as shown.

Rack Installation
3. Rear mount the rails. Make sure that the stationary sections are horizontally
aligned, level, and parallel.
For a deep configuration, rear mount as shown.
For a shallow configuration, rear mount as shown.
Rack Adjustments If, after installation, the slide tracks bind, adjust the tracks as follows.
1. Slide the instrument out about 10 inches, slightly loosen the screws holding
the tracks to the front rails, and allow the tracks to seek an unbound position.
2. Retighten the screws and check the tracks for smooth operation by sliding the
instrument in and out of the rack several times.
WVR8200 and WVR8300 System Integrator 5

Rack Installation
To Install the Instrument 1. Pull the slide-out track section to the fully extended position.
2. Insert the instrument chassis sections into the slide-out.
3. Press the stop latches, and push the instrument toward the rack until the
latches snap into their holes.
4. Press the stop latches again, and push the instrument fully into the rack.

Rack Installation
5. Tighten the front-panel retaining screws.
To Remove the Instrument 1. Before removing the instrument, be sure to disconnect all cabling.
2. Loosen retaining screw and pull instrument outward until the stop latches
snap into the holes.

Rack Installation
3. Press stop latches (visible in the stop-latch holes) and carefully slide the
instrument free from the tracks.
Rack Slide Maintenance The slide-out tracks do not require lubrication.

Instrument Connectors
Instrument Connectors
The instrument has connectors on the front and rear panels. The following pages
describe the connector types, pin numbering, and associated signal requirements.
The first illustration shows the rear panel of a fully optioned instrument. Your
instrument may have a different configuration than that shown.
NOTE. More illustrations and photographs of these instruments are available in
JPEG format on the Tektronix Web site (www.tektronix.com) and on the Product
Documentation CD that was shipped with your instrument.

Instrument Connectors
Power Connector
The instrument has the following power requirements:
A single-phase power source with one current-carrying conductor at or near
earth-ground (the neutral conductor).
The power source frequency must be 50 or 60 Hz, and a operating voltage
range must be from 100 to 240 VAC, continuous.
WARNING. To reduce risk of fire and shock, ensure the mains supply voltage
fluctuations do not exceed 10% of the operating voltage range.
Systems with both current-carrying conductors live with respect to ground
(such as phase-to-phase in multiphase systems) are not recommended as
power sources.
NOTE. Only the line conductor is fused for over-current protection. The fuse is
internal and not user replaceable. Do not attempt to replace the fuse. If you
suspect the fuse has blown, return the unit to an authorized service center for
repair.
SDI Video Connectors SDI inputs are self-terminating inputs. Use the SDI A and SDI B inputs to connect
as
erial digital video signal to the instrument.
The SDI A Out signal is the reclocked output of the SDI A input and has the
same data rate as the input signal. The SDI B/CLK Out signal is the reclocked
output from the SDI B input and has the same data rate as the input signal. If the
instrument has Option Eye or PHY, the SDI B/CLK Out signal can also be the
recovered clock output. You can connect the Clock Out signal to a spectrum
analyzer to view jitter frequency components in the video signal.
The SDI OUT can be selected to output either the looped-through input signal,
a test signal (Option 3G only), or the Pix Mon signal output, which contains
configurable error brightups. This is done from the Config>Outputs>SDI
Output menu.
The following table lists the characteristics of the SDI video connectors.
