Release notes
This document describes the key features and known limitations of software
version 1.5 of the Tektronix WFM2200 SD/HD/3G SDI Waveform Monitor and
Generator.
Some of these notes apply only to instruments with specific options installed. A
list of available instrument options is available at www.tektronix.com.
Software version 1.5
New features The following new features were introduced with software version 1.5:
Genlock. The test signals that are generated from the SDI output now have the
ability to Genlock to the External Reference Input. The status of the Genlock
function is shown in the Status Bar and in the Generator Status display.
Moving circle. You can add a moving circle to the output signal, which allows
you to easily identify whether the test signal is active “live” or still, and helps
determine problems within the signal path that has been caused by equipment
freezing on the last frame. This can be useful for troubleshooting a signal path or
piece of equipment without the need to carry an additional generator.

Power button. The operation of the Power button for powering off the instrument
has changed. The button functions as follows:
There are two methods for powering off the instrument:
Press the Power button on the front panel. This opens the Power off or
Standby dialog box where you can use the arrows buttons to select from the
following actions:
NOTE. When you press the Power button, you must make a selection in the Power
off or Standby dialog box within 5 seconds or the instrument will automatically
power off.
Power off. This is the default selection. You can press the SEL button to
immediately power off the instrument or you can wait 5 seconds for the
instrument to automatically power off.
Standby. Use the arrow buttons to select Standby to put the instrument in
Standby mode. In Standby mode, the instrument consumes less power
than when it is turned on and also takes less time to turn back on than
when the instrument is turned completely off.
Cancel. Use the arrow buttons to select Cancel if you want to cancel the
power-off operation.
Press and hold the Power button for 5 seconds and then release the button to
immediately power off the instrument.
NOTE. To remove power completely from the instrument, disconnect the AC
adapter from the power connector and remove any installed battery pack.
Known problem fixed The following known problem was fixed with this release.
Audio outputs. When the instrument was powered on or came out of Standby
mode with the audio input configured for embedded audio, the channel 1
audio signal was assigned to both the left and right outputs on the speaker and
headphone.

General limitations
This release has the following general limitations. Topics are listed in alphabetical
order.
Audio outputs High headphone volume levels can cause clipping with high audio level
programs. To prevent possible ear damage, it is recommended to lower the
volume before connecting headphones to the instrument.
Test tone generation from AES output will be muted for a moment
when the input video channel is switched or input video signal is
connected/disconnected.
Genlock If the reference frequency error is greater than 80 ppm, then the lock indicator
may falsely indicate that the instrument is locked. In this case, the SDI OUT
can be temporarily connected to an SDI input and the actual lock condition
can be viewed on the Timing display using external reference.
USB Always press the MAIN button and select USB Status > Unmount before you
remove the USB memory device from the USB port. You risk permanent loss
of any files saved on the USB device if you do not use the “Unmount” feature.
It is recommended that you use a well known brand to prevent a slow
instrument boot-up and/or response.
Web browser We recommend using Java Runtime Engine (JRE) version 1.6 or above.
