Pollution degree description
A measure of the contaminants that could occur in the environment around and within a product. Typically the internal environment inside a product is considered to be the same as the external. Products should be used only in the environment for which they are rated.
- Pollution Degree 1. No pollution or only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. Products in this category are generally encapsulated, hermetically sealed, or located in clean rooms.
- Pollution Degree 2. Normally only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. Occasionally a temporary conductivity that is caused by condensation must be expected. This location is a typical office/home environment. Temporary condensation occurs only when the product is out of service.
- Pollution Degree 3. Conductive pollution, or dry, nonconductive pollution that becomes conductive due to condensation. These are sheltered locations where neither temperature nor humidity is controlled. The area is protected from direct sunshine, rain, or direct wind.
- Pollution Degree 4. Pollution that generates persistent conductivity through conductive dust, rain, or snow. Typical outdoor locations.
Pollution degree rating
Pollution Degree 2 (as defined in IEC 61010-1). Rated for indoor, dry location use only.
IP rating
IP20 (as defined in IEC 60529).
Measurement and overvoltage category descriptions
Measurement terminals on this product may be rated for measuring mains voltages from one or more of the following categories (see specific ratings marked on the product and in the manual).
- Overvoltage Category I. For equipment intended to be connected to a mains supply in which means have been taken to substantially and reliably reduce transient overvoltages to a level where they cannot cause a hazard.
- Measurement Category II. For measurements performed on circuits directly connected to the low-voltage installation.
- Measurement Category III. For measurements performed in the building installation.
- Measurement Category IV. For measurements performed at the source of low-voltage installation.
| Note:Only mains power supply circuits have an overvoltage category rating. Only
measurement circuits have a measurement category rating. Other circuits within the
product do not have either rating. |
Mains overvoltage category rating
Overvoltage Category II (as defined in IEC 61010-1).

Performance verification procedure
The following procedure verifies the end-to-end PCIe link for TMT4 → TMT4 cable → TMT4 adapter → PCIe enabled device. A failing result can indicate a fault in any one of those components in the system. Additional troubleshooting may be required to identify any cause of fault.
Test equipment
- TMT4 cable
- CEM x16 Slot adapter
- PCIe x16 Gen 3/4 complaint CEM add-in card endpoint
- External power supply for add-in card endpoint (if needed)
- Ethernet cable
- PC with Web browser
Procedure
- Log in to the instrument through the Web interface and click the Utilities tab.
- Click the Run Self Test button to run a self test.
- Check the results of the self test that appear in the window once the test completes. You can also choose to save the test log files by clicking Export Log Files.
-
Connect the TMT4 to a PCIe x16 Gen3/4 compliant CEM add-in card endpoint. If required, use an external power source to power the add-in. The following image shows a setup example using an external power source for a graphics card.
- Check that the Adapter Power LED is lit on the CEM x16 Slot adapter.
- Click the Check Link button on the bottom of the navigation panel in the Web interface.
-
Verify the link connection. A failed link shows red text that states "No link". A good link shows green text.
- Click the Setup button and verify that the system is in the correct setup to run your connected add-in card scans. If needed, reboot the TMT4 to AIC setup. A Reboot button should appear if this is needed.
- Set the Test Type to Quick Scan.
- Set the Generation to Gen3.
-
Click the Run Scan button.
- Once the test begins, the Results Test Status screen will automatically be displayed. Verify you can see the following:
-
Eye diagrams for all 16 lanes. If there are any fewer than 16 lanes, that is considered a failure.
-
Click on the TMT Receiver Settings expandable menu to view the results table. The table shows the preset each lane is trained to and the expected test range based on the negotiated preset. If any errors are found, they will show in the table as red text.
-
- If no failures are found, run a Quick Scan for Gen 4. The procedure is the same.
- If failures are found, troubleshoot as follows:
- Verify fully seated connections (unplug and replug).
- Verify external power is attached and on as needed by the DUT.
- Once troubleshooting is complete, run the Gen 3 Quick Scan again.
