Both units power on and the buttons all seem to be working. I wasn't sure how to test the printer. The battery packs are both gone as well as the back plates. No cables or accessories are included. I used my own PC power cable for testing not the Tectronix original. Both covers affix to the chassis perfectly and the handles are tight. I think the 1503B might have been the 2nd unit ever made judging from the 002 serial number. If you have any questions or testing you want me to perform please just ask. Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) The portable, rugged 1502B and 1503B TDR Cable Testers are field maintenance tools that are simple to operate and will test any transmission cable under virtually any condition. These units use a technique called Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) to identify and locate cable faults. The unit is connected to a line in the cable and sends out an electrical pulse that is reflected back to the unit by a fault in the cable. Fault type is identified by the shape of the display. The display is an LCD where distance measurements may be made using a cursor. Tektronix 1502B tests coax and other cables in aircraft, ships, radar sites, etc. The 1503B tests long runs of coax or twisted pair cables in telephone and other communications applications. Both units are small and lightweight for easy carrying and operating in tight spaces. The optional battery pack (Option) will provide at least five hours of operation. Also known as cable radar. 1502B This unit is directly calibrated in reflection coefficient (rho) and distance. The 1502B uses a step-pulse and provides fault resolution to 0.9 inch on short cables. The 1502B performs to a maximum of 2000 feet, but with decreasing resolution as the fault distance increases. The unit is matched to 50-ohm cables, but may be used on others by adjusting the front panel vertical scale control or using optional impedance adapters. 1503B The 1503B provides high-energy, 1/2 sine-shaped pulses for long cables. Range of the 1503B, dependent upon cable type, is up to 50,000 feet. Resolution capability provides for resolving faults as close together as one foot on short cables. Impedance levels of 50, 75, 93, and 125 ohms are selectable. Metric Instruments For distance measurements in meters, Option 05 is available for both the 1502B and 1503B. These instruments are complete metric versions of the 1502B and 1503B (no conversion from feet to meters is involved). Both the 1502B and 1503B also offer feet to metric conversion via Menu. The 1502B Option 05 has a distance resolution of 24 mm and measures 500 meters. The 1503B Option 05 has a distance resolution of 0.3 mm and measures 10,000 meters.
