Information about this Manual
1 Information about this Manual
This manual is part of the documentation for the R&S TMU9 transmitter family from
Rohde & Schwarz. The individual manuals for the transmitter family have a modular
structure and complement each other.
Structure
The system manual, which is the central and overarching part of the overall documentation, describes all the steps involved in installing a transmitter.
Operation of the transmitter system after installation and the steps required to put the
system into operation are described in the operating manual.
The service manual describes all maintenance, troubleshooting and service tasks that
customers can carry out themselves. At certain points in the transmitter manual, the
reader is referred to the appropriate operating manual or service manual.
Contents
The manuals for the transmitter family describe all activities required for installation,
startup,
component parts. The appendix contains the interface descriptions and the technical
documentation.
Safety
All skilled personnel working with a transmitter or its components have a duty to read the
associated manuals and to follow the safety measures described in the section "Safety"
and given at appropriate points in the manual. It must be ensured that the transmitter and
the individual components of the transmitter are used only for their intended purpose. All
activities connected with the transmitter or individual transmitter components must be
carried out by skilled personnel. If activities require additional skills and qualifications,
this is indicated at the appropriate points in the manual.
Symbols and notation
The warning triangle symbol refers the reader to potential hazards. The degree of danger
is indicated by different signal words next to the warning symbol.
Instructions are given in numbered steps. All other formatting options are intended to
improve clarity and are self‑explanatory.

2.1 Safety Instructions for Transmitter Systems and Equipment
Compliance with safety regulations
The safety regulations specified in this manual must always be complied with.
The following points require special attention:
Only qualified technicians are allowed to install and wire the electrical equipment.
●
National and international safety rules and regulations must be observed when
●
equipping operating facilities and during the assembly and operation of electrical
systems.
These include, for example:
– Protective measures to prevent accidents
– Protection against overvoltage
– Isolation of electrical systems
– Grounding of electrical systems
– Physical properties and laying of electrical lines and cables
– Regulations that apply to factories, work areas and special systems
When installing transmitter racks, it is important to observe national accident pre-
●
vention regulations, for example, with regard to:
– Crushing hazard when working beneath suspended loads
– Fall hazards when working on ladders
– Risk of injury when lifting heavy loads
Personal protective equipment (PPE) must be used when installation or repair work
●
is being carried out. Depending on the type of work, it may be necessary to wear
protective clothing such as hard hats, safety gloves, eye protection, etc.
Instruments and systems must not be operated unless their cabinets are closed.
●
Observe the appropriate safety instructions when opening cabinets for maintenance
or repair work.
Isolate all poles when disconnecting instruments and systems from the AC supply.
●
In addition, disconnect all external sources of power, i.e. all measuring cables, extension cables and multipoint connectors (except for special service connectors). Then
wait approx. 5 minutes to ensure that the capacitors in the system are sufficiently
discharged.
