AM700 Audio Measurement Set Service Manual
6–93
Rack Adapter Instructions
The AM7FR1 Rackmounting adapter enables mounting the Tektronix AM700
Audio Measurement Set in a standard 19-inch (483 mm) rack with an 8.75 inch
vertical opening (five rack units). The adapter consists of a folded metal tray
with attached front panel and slide-out assemblies.
CAUTION. To prevent static discharge damage, service the measurement set only
in an antistatic work station. Observe standard handling precautions for
static-sensitive devices while installing this kit. Always wear a grounded wrist
strap, grounded foot strap, and static resistant apparel while installing this kit.
Slide-out Tracks
The slide-out tracks consist of a complete assembly for the left and right sides of
the rackmounting adapter. Each assembly consists of three sections: the
stationary section, the chassis section, and the intermediate section. The
stationary section of each assembly attaches to the front and rear rails of the
cabinet rack. The chassis sections are attached to the adapter at the factory. The
intermediate sections slide between the stationary and chassis sections and allow
the instrument to be extended out of the rack.
When the rackmounting adapter is shipped, the stationary and intermediate
sections of the tracks are packaged as matched sets and should not be separated.
When mounted in the cabinet rack, the automatic latch should be at the top of
both assemblies. The rackmount adapter and one slide-out track assembly are
illustrated in Figure 6–47.
WARNING. If the left and right slide-out tracks are reversed, the safety latch can
be defeated, allowing the instrument to be pulled out of the rack. There are green
labels on each track near the mounting flange that are stamped with LH or RH
to indicate left- hand and right-hand tracks, respectively. Be sure to mount the
tracks on the correct sides, and only as directed in these instructions.
