Start Up
To properly install and power on the oscilloscope, perform this procedure.
1. Check that you have the proper electrical connections. The rear label lists
power requirements for all possible voltage inputs.
2. Check the fuse to be sure it is the proper type and rating (Figure 22).
TDS 300 Series oscilloscopes are shipped with a UL approved fuse
installed.
Fuse specifications are as follows.
IEC 127: 5 by 20 mm, timelag, 3.15 A, 250 V
UL198 G/CSA: 5 by 20 mm, timelag, 3 A, 250 V
3. Connect the proper power cord from the rear panel power connector
(Figure 22) to the power system. Use the power cord clamp to secure
the cord to the rear panel.
4. Leave space for cooling. Do this by verifying that the air intake and ex
haust holes on the sides and bottom of the cabinet (where the fan oper
ates) are free of any airflow obstructions. Leave at least 5.1 cm (2 in) free
on each side.
5. Press the ON/STBY button to power up the oscilloscope.
