INSTALLATION
The
time-base
unit
is
designed
to
operate
in
the
horizontal plug-in
compartment
of
the
mainframe.
This
instrument
can
also
be
installed
in
a vertical
plug-in
compartment
to provide
a vertical
sweep
on
the
crt.
However,
when
used
in
this
manner,
there
are
no
internal
triggering
or
retrace
blanking
provisions,
and the
unit may
not meet
specifications.
To
install
the unit
in
a plug-in
compartment,
push
it in
until it
fits firmly
into
the
compartment.
The
front
panel
of
the unit
should
be
flush
with
the
front
panel
of the
mainframe.
Even
though
the
gain of
the
mainframe
is
standardized,
the sweep
calibration
of the
unit
should
be
checked
when
installed.
The
procedure
for
checking
the
unit is
given
under
Sweep
Functions
in
the
Operators
Checkout
procedure
in
section
2.
To remove
the unit,
pull
the
release
latch
(see Fig.

)
to
disengage the
unit
from the
mainframe,
and
pull it
out of
the plug-in
compartment.
