TLA 700 Series Installation Manual
Cover Empty Slots
If you have any unused (empty) slots in your mainframe, you must install blank
slot panel covers to meet EMC specifications. Install a blank slot panel cover for
each empty slot as shown in Figure 3. Make sure that the EMI shielding is in
contact with the adjacent panel or module cover. Installing the covers provides
proper EMI shielding and reduces audible noise.
CAUTION. Use only Tektronix TLA 700 Series slot panel covers on the benchtop
mainframe. Do not use non-Tektronix covers, otherwise the mainframe may not
meet cooling and EMC requirements.
