Description: In this video I discus how to adjust your CRT for clarity and alignment using the publication and a list of alternate equipment not called out in the book. We'll use frequencies and amplitude levels, provided in the book. If you don’t have the equipment below, acquire some that will put out the “Signal Required” listed after the asset below.
Here’s a download link straight from Tektronix to the manual I use in the video: download.tek.com/manual/070686301web.pdf
WARNING: LETHAL High Voltage are present with the cover off. If you are not a trained Electronics Technician I don’t recommend you do this procedure without a trained Electronics Technician with High Voltage experience overseeing you perform the procedure.
Equipment used:
- Insulated Tektronix Oscilloscope Probe Tweaker, or a plastic insulated one. I do not recommend a metal tweaker, even if it’s insulated, due to the Lethal High Voltages present.
- Banana to BNC(f) Adapter.
- 36”(1m) RG-58 BNC(m) to BNC(m) 50 ohm cable.
- Fluke 5700A Calibrator………… Signal required: 50khz @ approx. 280 mv.
- HP 8642B Signal Generator…. Signal required: 10mhz @ approx. .4 dbm.
Thanks for watching folks. Hope you enjoyed the video. If you learned something, please give me a thumbs up for my time. If you have experience with this scope series Calibration please comment and contact me, I need to pick your brain on some things. Best wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya
