Operating Temperature
The 7844/R7844 can be operated where the ambient a i r
temperature is between O°C and +50° C. After storage a t
temperatures beyond the operating l i m its, allow t h e chassis
temperature to come within the operating l i mits before
power is appl ied.
The 7844 is cooled by air drawn in through holes in the
side and bottom panels and blown out through the fan ex
haust. To ensure proper cooling of the 7844, maintain the
clearance provided by the feet on the bottom and allow 2
inches clearance on the top, sides, and rear (more clearance,
if poss i b l e ) . The R7844 is cooled by air drawn in through
the a i r filter on the rear panel and blown out through holes
located on the side panels. To ensure proper cooling of the
R 7 844, refer to the dimensional drawing in Section 3 of
this manual

A thermal cutout d i sconnects power from this instrument
if the internal temperature exceeds a safe operating level.
Power i s automatically restored when the temperature re
turns to a safe level.
Operating Position
A bail-type stand is mounted on the bottom of the 7844.
This stand permits the instrument to be t i l ted up about 1 0°
for more convenient crt viewing.
PLUG-IN UNITS
The 7844/R 7 844 accepts up to 4 Tektronix 7000-Series
plug-i n units. Th is feature allows selection of bandwidth,
sensitivity, display mode, etc., and provides tor future ex"
pansion of the system.
The overall capabilities of the system are determined mainly
by the characteristics of the plug-ins selected. Some typical
1-2
combinations are given under Applications, in th i s manual,
along with simplified set-up instructions. For information
on other plug-in units, refer to the current Tektronix catalog.
I nstallation of Plug-In Units
Plug-in units can be installed or removed without turning
the instrument power off. To instal! a plug-in unit into a
compartment, al ign the slots in the top and bottom of the
plug-in unit with the associated guide rails in the plug-in
compartment. I n sert the plug-in un'lt into the compartment
until it locks into place. To remove a plug-in unit, pull the
release latch on the plug-in unit to disengage it. To meet
emi specifications, all unused plug-in compartments should
be covered with an emi-shielded, blank plug-in panel, Tek
tronix Part 0 1 6-01 55-00.
The 7844/R7844 Calibration procedure given in the Service
manual normalizes the vertical and horizontal gains. This
allows plug-in units to be i nterchanged between plug-in com
partments without reca l i bration. The basic calibration of
the plug-in units should be checked when installed to verify
thei r accuracy (refer to plug-in operating instructions) .
CONTROLS AND CONNECTORS
Figure 1 - 1 and Figure 1-2 show the front and rear panels. A
brief description of each control and connector is given. Re
fer to Detailed Operating I nformation in this manual for
additional operating i nformation.
Front-Panel Color Coding
Portions of the 7844/R7844 front-panel are color-coded.
These color-coded areas are defined by their functions. Red
identifies the nomenclature and controls that will uncal ibrate
the instrument. Blue identifies the controls affecting the
crt display mode. Green identifies all trigger controls.
Other colors such as gray, orange and yellow, have nO func
tional assignments, but are used as needed to ind icate the
relationship between controls and/or connectors.
FAM I L I A R I ZATION PROC E DU R E
The following prOCedUrE) may b e used for fam i l iarization
with the 7844/R7844 or as a check of basic instrument op
eration. If performing the Famil iarization Procedure reveals
improper cal i bration or instrument malfunction, first check
the operation of the associated plug-in units; then refer to
the Calibration and Maintenance sections of the 7844/R7844
Service manual.
