Paragraphs 1-9 to 1-16<br />

1-9. SPECIAL FEATURES.<br />

1-10. Special features of the Model <strong>175A</strong> include the<br />

Hewlett-Packard internal-graticule crt, PRESET<br />

triggering, BEAM FINDER, and a cabinet which<br />

serves both bench- and rack-mount requirements.<br />

Optional plug-in units are provided for both the ver-<br />

tical and the time axis. The main vertical amplifier<br />

rise time is less than 7 nanoseconds which provides<br />

maximum versatility for present and future plug-ins.<br />

1-11. CATHODE-RAY TUBE.<br />

1-12. The crt used in the Model <strong>175A</strong> is a multi-grid<br />

12-kvpost-accelerator type with the @ internal grati-<br />

cule which eliminates parallax, and an aluminized<br />

phosphor. The gun structure provides a large 6x<br />

10 cm distortionless viewing area as well as ex-<br />

tremely high deflection-plate sensitivity.<br />

1-13. SPECIAL CONTROLS.<br />

1-14. Special panel controls make the Model <strong>175A</strong><br />

easy to operate. With SWEEP MODE in PRESET,<br />

the sweep will synchronize internally on nearly all<br />

signals. BEAM FINDER enables the operator to<br />

locate the beam when it is off screen. SWEEP<br />

MAGNIFIER increases the maximum sweep rate to<br />

10 nsec/cm, calibrated in all positions.<br />

1-15. AMBER FILTER.<br />

Model <strong>175A</strong><br />

1-16. An amber filter (@ Stock No. 120A-83A) is<br />

supplied with each oscilloscope which has a type P7<br />

phosphor crt. The filter, when installed over the<br />

face of the crt, improves visual observation of dis-<br />

plays such as single-shot phenomena or very low<br />

frequency applications. The filter provides the long<br />

persistency characteristics desired for observation<br />

of displays of this type. To install the filter, pro-<br />

ceed as follows:<br />

a. Remove front panel crt bezel.<br />

b. Set filter into bezel, aligning larger rectangular<br />

slots in edge of filter with guide metal posts on<br />

bezel casting.<br />

c. Remove oscilloscope top cover.<br />

d. Loosen clamp at socket of crt.<br />

e. Carefully push CRT toward rear of instrument<br />

to provide clearance for thickness of installed filter<br />

(about 1/8 inch),<br />

f. Replace bezel with filter and tighten bezel screws.<br />

g. Slide crt forward until light mask on front of<br />

crt just touches filter.<br />

h. Tighten clamp to keep crt from turning; do not<br />

over-tighten clamp or tube damage may result.<br />

i. Obtain a free running trace and then adjust<br />

TRACE ALIGNMENT until trace is aligned with<br />

horizontal lines of graticule.
