Product: Video Toaster

Platforms: 2000 3000 3000T 4000 4000T

The minimum that an end-user who is interested in maintaining his Toaster will need is the following:

1. Small flathead screwdriver for Toaster assembly screws.

2. Small and medium phillips head screwdrivers - for computer assembly screws.

3. TV Tuner tool or very small, thin-edge flathead screwdriver for capacitor adjustment

4. Multimeter which measures AC and DC voltage levels, and can test amperage and continuity. (Radio Shack carries several inexpensive, easy-to-read digital models.)

5. A directly generated video source, such as a camera, an NTSC signal generator such as (shameless plug!) NewTek's Calibar, a laserdisc player, or a television tuner providing a broadcast (not cablecast) television signal.

   Dealerships and professional users should also have a waveform monitor and a vectorscope, to properly analyze both input signals and Toaster output.
