Electrical safety

If the information on electrical safety is not observed either at all or to the extent
necessary, electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury or death may occur.

1. Prior to switching on the product, always ensure that the nominal voltage
setting on the product matches the nominal voltage of the AC supply network.
If a different voltage is to be set, the power fuse of the product may have to be
changed accordingly.

2. In the case of products of safety class I with movable power cord and
connector, operation is permitted only on sockets with a protective conductor
contact and protective conductor.

3. Intentionally breaking the protective conductor either in the feed line or in the
product itself is not permitted. Doing so can result in the danger of an electric
shock from the product. If extension cords or connector strips are
implemented, they must be checked on a regular basis to ensure that they are
safe to use.

4. If there is no power switch for disconnecting the product from the AC supply
network, or if the power switch is not suitable for this purpose, use the plug of
the connecting cable to disconnect the product from the AC supply network. In
such cases, always ensure that the power plug is easily reachable and
accessible at all times. For example, if the power plug is the disconnecting
device, the length of the connecting cable must not exceed 3 m. Functional or
electronic switches are not suitable for providing disconnection from the AC
supply network. If products without power switches are integrated into racks or
systems, the disconnecting device must be provided at the system level.

1171.0000.52 - 06 Page 4

Basic Safety Instructions

5. Never use the product if the power cable is damaged. Check the power cables
on a regular basis to ensure that they are in proper operating condition. By
taking appropriate safety measures and carefully laying the power cable,
ensure that the cable cannot be damaged and that no one can be hurt by, for
example, tripping over the cable or suffering an electric shock.

6. The product may be operated only from TN/TT supply networks fuse-protected
with max. 16 A (higher fuse only after consulting with the Rohde & Schwarz
group of companies).

7. Do not insert the plug into sockets that are dusty or dirty. Insert the plug firmly
and all the way into the socket provided for this purpose. Otherwise, sparks
that result in fire and/or injuries may occur.

8. Do not overload any sockets, extension cords or connector strips; doing so
can cause fire or electric shocks.

9. For measurements in circuits with voltages V

> 30 V, suitable measures

rms

(e.g. appropriate measuring equipment, fuse protection, current limiting,
electrical separation, insulation) should be taken to avoid any hazards.

10. Ensure that the connections with information technology equipment, e.g. PCs
or other industrial computers, comply with the IEC60950-1/EN60950-1 or
IEC61010-1/EN 61010-1 standards that apply in each case.

11. Unless expressly permitted, never remove the cover or any part of the housing
while the product is in operation. Doing so will expose circuits and
components and can lead to injuries, fire or damage to the product.

12. If a product is to be permanently installed, the connection between the
protective conductor terminal on site and the product's protective conductor
must be made first before any other connection is made. The product may be
installed and connected only by a licensed electrician.

13. For permanently installed equipment without built-in fuses, circuit breakers or
similar protective devices, the supply circuit must be fuse-protected in such a
way that anyone who has access to the product, as well as the product itself,
is adequately protected from injury or damage.

14. Use suitable overvoltage protection to ensure that no overvoltage (such as
that caused by a bolt of lightning) can reach the product. Otherwise, the
person operating the product will be exposed to the danger of an electric
shock.

15. Any object that is not designed to be placed in the openings of the housing
must not be used for this purpose. Doing so can cause short circuits inside the
product and/or electric shocks, fire or injuries.

1171.0000.52 - 06 Page 5

Basic Safety Instructions

16. Unless specified otherwise, products are not liquid-proof (see also section
"Operating states and operating positions", item 1). Therefore, the equipment
must be protected against penetration by liquids. If the necessary precautions
are not taken, the user may suffer electric shock or the product itself may be
damaged, which can also lead to personal injury.

17. Never use the product under conditions in which condensation has formed or
can form in or on the product, e.g. if the product has been moved from a cold
to a warm environment. Penetration by water increases the risk of electric
shock.

18. Prior to cleaning the product, disconnect it completely from the power supply
(e.g. AC supply network or battery). Use a soft, non-linting cloth to clean the
product. Never use chemical cleaning agents such as alcohol, acetone or
diluents for cellulose lacquers.

Operation

1. Operating the products requires special training and intense concentration.
Make sure that persons who use the products are physically, mentally and
emotionally fit enough to do so; otherwise, injuries or material damage may
occur. It is the responsibility of the employer/operator to select suitable
personnel for operating the products.

2. Before you move or transport the product, read and observe the section titled
"Transport".

3. As with all industrially manufactured goods, the use of substances that induce
an allergic reaction (allergens) such as nickel cannot be generally excluded. If
you develop an allergic reaction (such as a skin rash, frequent sneezing, red
eyes or respiratory difficulties) when using a Rohde & Schwarz product,
consult a physician immediately to determine the cause and to prevent health
problems or stress.

4. Before you start processing the product mechanically and/or thermally, or
before you take it apart, be sure to read and pay special attention to the
section titled "Waste disposal/Environmental protection", item 1.

5. Depending on the function, certain products such as RF radio equipment can
produce an elevated level of electromagnetic radiation. Considering that
unborn babies require increased protection, pregnant women must be
protected by appropriate measures. Persons with pacemakers may also be
exposed to risks from electromagnetic radiation. The employer/operator must
evaluate workplaces where there is a special risk of exposure to radiation and,
if necessary, take measures to avert the potential danger.

1171.0000.52 - 06 Page 6

Basic Safety Instructions

6. Should a fire occur, the product may release hazardous substances (gases,
fluids, etc.) that can cause health problems. Therefore, suitable measures
must be taken, e.g. protective masks and protective clothing must be worn.

7. Laser products are given warning labels that are standardized according to
their laser class. Lasers can cause biological harm due to the properties of
their radiation and due to their extremely concentrated electromagnetic power.
If a laser product (e.g. a CD/DVD drive) is integrated into a Rohde & Schwarz
product, absolutely no other settings or functions may be used as described in
the product documentation. The objective is to prevent personal injury (e.g.
due to laser beams).

8. EMC classes (in line with CISPR 11)
Class A: Equipment suitable for use in all environments except residential
environments and environments that are directly connected to a low-voltage
supply network that supplies residential buildings.
Class B: Equipment suitable for use in residential environments and
environments that are directly connected to a low-voltage supply network that
supplies residential buildings.

Repair and service

1. The product may be opened only by authorized, specially trained personnel.
Before any work is performed on the product or before the product is opened,
it must be disconnected from the AC supply network. Otherwise, personnel will
be exposed to the risk of an electric shock.

2. Adjustments, replacement of parts, maintenance and repair may be performed
only by electrical experts authorized by Rohde & Schwarz. Only original parts
may be used for replacing parts relevant to safety (e.g. power switches, power
transformers, fuses). A safety test must always be performed after parts
relevant to safety have been replaced (visual inspection, protective conductor
test, insulation resistance measurement, leakage current measurement,
functional test). This helps ensure the continued safety of the product.

Batteries and rechargeable batteries/cells

If the information regarding batteries and rechargeable batteries/cells is not
observed either at all or to the extent necessary, product users may be exposed
to the risk of explosions, fire and/or serious personal injury, and, in some cases,
death. Batteries and rechargeable batteries with alkaline electrolytes (e.g. lithium
cells) must be handled in accordance with the EN 62133 standard.

1171.0000.52 - 06 Page 7

Basic Safety Instructions

shipping the instrument later on. Keep at least the two protective covers to protect front
and rear panel and the connectors from being damaged.

2. Remove the two protective covers at the front and the rear and
carefully check the instrument for possible damage.

Notes on Putting into Operation

1.1.2 Positioning the Instrument

For use in the lab or on a workbench, fold out the feet at the bottom of the unit.

Risk of injuries

Before positioning the instrument, read the safety instructions for instruments with fold­out feet at the beginning of this manual carefully.

1.1.3 AC Supply

The instrument can be operated from 100 V to 120 V and 200 V to 240 V AC at
frequencies from 50 Hz to 60 Hz. The AC supply connector is located at the rear of the
unit. The auto ranging function automatically adapts to the applied voltage by selecting
one of the two permissible voltage ranges. Adjusting the instrument to a particular AC
supply voltage is therefore not required.

1.1.4 EMC Safety Precautions

To prevent electromagnetic interference, the instrument must be operated only when
closed and with all shielding covers fitted. Only suitable and shielded signal and control
cables may be used. This applies in particular to cables that are connected to the ASI
inputs and outputs. Depending on the data rate and the packet timing of the transport
stream, high levels may occur sporadically within the signal spectrum. To avoid EMC
problems, these cables should therefore have at least 80 dB to 1 GHz shielding. This is
usually achieved by means of double-shielded cables.

Setting Up and Configuring a New R&S DVM Analysis System

2.2 Setting Up and Configuring a New R&S DVM Analysis System

The base component of an R&S DVM Analysis System is the R&S DVM400. It contains
a controller and an analyzer for monitoring up to 4 transport streams. If more transport
streams have to be analyzed, the system can be expanded by adding one or two
R&S DVM120.

The analyzers are connected to the controller via an IEEE802.3 Ethernet-based private
network. The base system – which contains only one analyzer – can be directly
connected by means of the crossed Ethernet cable supplied with the R&S DVM400.
Expanded systems – containing several analyzers - are connected via an Ethernet hub.

The basic functions can be accessed using the keypad on the front panel. For faster
access to the controls, we recommend using the mouse supplied with the instrument.

After interconnecting the hardware, a basic configuration has to be performed so that the
connected analyzers are made known to the system and can be used for analysis.

The "private network" is an IP-based Ethernet network that is allowed to
contain only R&S DVM analyzers. This is the only way to achieve the
required data rate. On the other hand, the R&S DVM controller contains
a DHCP server for automatic assignment of IP addresses which might
create conflicts if the public network contains a DHCP server as well.

In a system containing both the R&S DVM400 and R&S DVM120, the analyzers are
connected to the controller via an Ethernet hub. All 100 Mbit/s-compatible hubs in line
with standard IEEE802.3 can be used. We recommend to use hubs with automatic
identification of the line configuration. If such a hub is not available, uncrossed Ethernet
cables must be used.

2.3.8 Recovery and Backup Partition

R&S DVM provides a backup and recovery partition. A backup of the factory system
partition (C:\) is stored per default and can be recovered in case of a system crash.

In addition, backups of up to 5 images of partition C: can be stored. When recovered,
the system partition (C:/) is deleted, formatted and newly written. The data partition (D:\)
is not affected.

If the following message is displayed during backup or recovery, ignore
it and do not restart your instrument. Select "No".

2.3.8.1 Prerequisite for the Recovery and Backup

As a prerequisite of a backup/restore process, in the BIOS settings, the hardware
watchdog must be disabled. Otherwise the backup/restore process (which normally lasts
about 10 to 15 minutes) will be terminated and fail due to a reboot issued by the
watchdog after about 4 minutes.

Initiating the backup/restore process

1. Connect an external keyboard to the USB interface.

2. Switch the instrument off and on again.
