Product overheating can cause electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury or even death.
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 mains-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 mains, or if the power switch is not suitable for this purpose, use the plug of the connecting cable to disconnect the product from the mains. 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.
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.
1171.0000.42 - 08 Page 3
Basic Safety Instructions
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 (e.g. appropriate
rms
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 IEC 60950-1 / EN 60950-1 or IEC 61010-1 / 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.
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.

3.1.1.5 Battery Operation
The R&S Spectrum Rider has a smart battery indicator which displays the battery charging status on the POWER key as well as the battery icon shown at the top right corner of the display screen. See Chapter 3.2.3.1, "Title Bar", on page 40.
The lithium ion battery has a capacity of approximately 6.4 Ah and it allows operation of up to eight hours when it is fully charged.
The actual operation time depends on the current charge status, the ambient tempera­ture and the operating mode of the R&S Spectrum Rider.
When the R&S Spectrum Rider is in operation, the power's LED displays green on the
button, the battery charging status can also be viewed on the "Title Bar". See Chap-
ter 3.2.3.1, "Title Bar", on page 40.
When the R&S Spectrum Rider is not in operation, the power's LED displays blue for a fully charged battery and it blinks in blue to indicate a battery charging process.
The battery charging and discharging process of the battery icon shown on the "Mea­surement Title" is illustrated below:
Figure 3-2: Battery charging process
Figure 3-3: Battery discharging process
While charging, the green slot on the battery icon is added from the right to left to indi­cate that the battery is charging while connected to the power supply.
When battery is fully charged, there are four green slots in the battery icon. Every slot is approximately 25% of the battery capacity. See Figure 3-2.
During the discharging process, the white slot in the battery icon is reduced until it turns to a single red slot. This shows that the battery has reached a low level. See
Figure 3-3.
Charging time is about three hours when the R&S Spectrum Rider is in inactive mode (i.e. R&S Spectrum Rider is switched off). If the instrument is in active mode (i.e. R&S Spectrum Rider is switched on), the charging time is extended to about four hours because the charging current is reduced as the power is partially drained by the usage of the R&S Spectrum Rider.
During operation in the field, you can also charge the battery with the car adapter (R&S HA-Z302, order number 1321.1340.02). You can connect the car adapter to the DC

To optimize the viewing angle, adjust the display color scheme settings. To achieve maximum contrast, the screen can be switched from color display to black-and-white display.
The intensity of the keyboard backlight is adjustable with a time delay setting to turn off the backlight. The keyboard backlight remains on until the time specified by the "Key­board Backlight Delay" or a subsequent key is pressed.
