Tektronix MR501 Plugin Manual in both Very High and in Standard Resolution PDFs on CD
Why settle for just one resolution? You get them both!
For High Res page samples from this specific manual, click HERE.
(No need to "email for samples," so no need to worry about getting sold to a SPAM list!)
(Please read FAQ or "About Me" Page)
Also includes the Tektronix Semiconductor Parts Catalog, plus an interesting and informative Articles PDF, as well as a fully bookmarked, hyperlinked and text-searchable scan of the entire "TM500 Rear Interface Data Book", a "TM500 Modular Test & Measurement Instruments" 44 Page Brochure and the Publication "Suggested Power Supply Circuits for The TM500 Blank Plug-In Kit" at no additional charge!
These PDF manuals cover the Tektronix MR501 Plugin for the TM500 series Power Modules. They are scanned from the original manufacturer's manual. The scans came out well, and all information available in the original manual is available here.
Two PDFs of the manual are provided, in two resolutions. One is:
Text with Drawings at 600dpi black and white
Schematics at 600dpi black and white
Text with photos at 600dpi grayscale with contrast adjusted
Any schematics, board overlays w/color at 600dpi 256 colors
Both resolutions are bookmarked, hyperlinked, and feature both the chapter-page and sequential page numbering systems. The fast "bench resolution" PDFs, which are designed primarily for research as opposed to printing, are also text-searchable.
Foldout pages are supplied as A4 (8-1/2x11") pages for ease of printing. The pages can be printed as needed or the information taken directly from the computer screen. If any exist, technical notes made by engineering and technical personnel are retained in this document.
The "very high" or "reproduction grade" resolution looks nice, but for many purposes uses excessive resources. Limiting yourself to that is kind of like riding to work every day on a tractor. You can copy the large file to the hard drive in an attempt to achieve maximum performance, but having that be a necessity is certainly of no benefit to you. Therefore, although it's great to have this resolution for those times you need higher definition (printing, mainly), we include a second scan in more normal resolutions for daily research and use on the bench.
The second scan is done in resolutions that vary depending on individual page content, but are never higher than needed to produce useable quality, quickly navigable files that will do the job without consuming more time and resources than are needed.
On the CD you'll receive the large "very high resolution" or "reproduction quality" file, plus the smaller, faster and often more useable text-searchable version. ALL original manual pages are supplied. "The Marketer" loudly and proudly advertises page counts and file sizes, but since those counts and sizes are artificially inflated with advertising, shareware beg screens and/or blank pages, we refrain from joining him and instead assure you that these manuals are complete and are scanned in the specified resolutions.
Q: Hey, "The Marketer" has "Fully Printable!" in his "FEATURES" list, all in red. Should I get all excited about that "FEATURE"? Is he light years ahead of you with that "FEATURE", Dave and Jill?
A: He's light years ahead of us when it comes to fertilizer production, that's for sure. What "The Marketer" is indicating by "Fully Printable!" is that although the PDF is password locked against any changes (so you can't add spec sheets or notes on your own instruments nor can you remove his shareware begging letters from the document), he has not locked it against printing, which could also have been done in the same Acrobat menu. If "The Marketer" wrote accurate descriptions for his products, he'd have written: "Printing Is The Only Action This PDF Is Not Password Locked Against!"
(Read that complete Q&A section here.) Folks, "Marketing" means slanting definitions and descriptions such that the product appears better than it is and faults are represented as virtues... and they don't call him "The Marketer" for nothing!!
