following requirements apply to
Rohde & Schwarz products:
prescribed operating position is always with
the housing floor facing down, IP protection
2X, pollution severity 2, overvoltage
category 2, use only in enclosed spaces,
max. operation altitude max. 2000 m.
Unless specified otherwise in the data
sheet, a tolerance of ±10% shall apply to
the nominal voltage and of ±5% to the
nominal frequency.

2. Applicable local or national safety
regulations and rules for the prevention of
accidents must be observed in all work
performed. The product may be opened
only by authorized, specially trained
personnel. Prior to performing any work on
the product or opening the product, the

product must be disconnected from the

replacements of parts, maintenance or
repair must be carried out only by technical
personnel 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, PE
conductor test, insulation resistance
measurement, leakage current
measurement, functional test).

3. As with all industrially manufactured goods,
the use of substances that induce an
allergic reaction (allergens, e.g. nickel)
such as aluminum cannot be generally
excluded. If you develop an allergic
reaction (such as a skin rash, frequent
sneezing, red eyes or respiratory
difficulties), consult a physician immediately
to determine the cause.

1171.0000.42-02.00 Sheet 2

Safety Instructions

4. If products/components are mechanically
and/or thermically processed in a manner
that goes beyond their intended use,
hazardous substances (heavy-metal dust
such as lead, beryllium, nickel) may be
released. For this reason, the product may
only be disassembled, e.g. for disposal
purposes, by specially trained personnel.
Improper disassembly may be hazardous to
your health. National waste disposal
regulations must be observed.

5. If handling the product yields hazardous
substances or fuels that must be disposed
of in a special way, e.g. coolants or engine
oils that must be replenished regularly, the
safety instructions of the manufacturer of
the hazardous substances or fuels and the
applicable regional waste disposal
regulations must be observed. Also
observe the relevant safety instructions in
the product documentation.

6. Depending on the function, certain products
such as RF radio equipment can produce
an elevated level of electromagnetic
radiation. Considering that unborn life
requires increased protection, pregnant
women should be protected by appropriate
measures. Persons with pacemakers may
also be endangered by electromagnetic
radiation. The employer is required to
assess workplaces where there is a special
risk of exposure to radiation and, if
necessary, take measures to avert the
danger.

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

8. Prior to switching on the product, it must be
ensured 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.

9. In the case of products of safety class I with
movable power cord and connector,
operation is permitted only on sockets with
earthing contact and protective earth
connection.

10. Intentionally breaking the protective earth
connection 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.

11. If the product has no power switch for
disconnection from the AC supply, the plug
of the connecting cable is regarded as the
disconnecting device. In such cases, it
must be ensured that the power plug is
easily reachable and accessible at all times
(length of connecting cable approx. 2 m).
Functional or electronic switches are not
suitable for providing disconnection from
the AC supply. If products without power
switches are integrated in racks or systems,
a disconnecting device must be provided at
the system level.

12. Never use the product if the power cable is
damaged. 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
e.g. tripping over the cable or suffering an
electric shock.

13. The product may be operated only from
TN/TT supply networks fused with max.
16 A.

14. Do not insert the plug into sockets that are
dusty or dirty. Insert the plug firmly and all
the way into the socket. Otherwise this can
result in sparks, fire and/or injuries.

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

16. For measurements in circuits with voltages
V

> 30 V, suitable measures (e.g.

rms

appropriate measuring equipment, fusing,
current limiting, electrical separation,
insulation) should be taken to avoid any
hazards.

17. Ensure that the connections with
information technology equipment comply
with IEC 950/EN 60950.

18. Never remove the cover or part of the
housing while you are operating the
product. This will expose circuits and
components and can lead to injuries, fire or
damage to the product.

Supplement A

to Operating Manual

Spectrum Analyzer FSEA20/30, FSEB20/30, FSEM20/21/30/31,

FSEK20/21/30/31

(Firmware Version 3.30 and higher (for instruments without controller function or with DOS

controller function))

(Firmware Version 4.30 and higher (for instruments with Windows NT controller function))

Dear Customer,

your spectrum analyzer is equipped with a new firmware version. The new f irmware of fers a number of
extensions and improvem ents which are not yet described in the operating manual. T hey are explained
on the following pages. The new functions concern:

• Selection of trace averaging method

• Extended functionality for external mixer (option FSE-B21)

• Extended functionality for operating modes GSM BTS ANALYZER (FSE-K11) and GSM MS

ANALYZER (FSE-K10).

• New operating mode EDGE Mobile Tests (application firmware FSE-K20).

• New operating mode EDGE Base Station Tests (application firmware FSE-K21).

• New application firmware extension FSE-K30: 850 MHz GSM band for FSE-K10 and FSE-K20

• New application firmware extension FSE-K31: 850 MHz GSM band for FSE-K11 and FSE-K21

• Extended functionality for operating mode vector signal analysis (option FSE-B7)

• Trace export in vector analyzer mode

• Additional IEEE/IEC-bus commands

Caution:

Instruments FSEM and FSEK equipped with a RF module of model index 20 and
higher should not be operated by a firmware version below 3.01 or 4.01 (instruments
with Windows NT controller).

Selection of Trace Averaging Method

Section "Trace Selection and Setup" of the operating manual was extended to include the selection of
the trace averaging method.

TRACE 1 right side menu:

AVG MODE

LOG LIN

The AVERAGE LIN/LOG softkey switches between linear and logarithmic
averaging in case of logarithmic level display.
In case of logarithmic averaging, the dB values of the display voltage are
averaged, in case of linear averaging the level values in dB are converted into
linear voltages or powers prior to averaging. These voltages or powers are
averaged and then again converted into level values.

For stationary sinewave signals the two averaging methods yield the same
result.

Logarithmic averaging is recommended if sinewave signals are to clearly
stand out against the noise since, with this averaging, noise suppression is
greater while the sinewave signals remain unchanged.

IEC/IEEE command :[SENSe<1|2>:]AVERage:TYPE VIDeo|LINear
This softk ey is also available for GSM application f irmware FSE-K10/K11 in

Power vs Time and Carrier Power measurements.

External Mixer option FSE-B21 extended

The permissible setting range of parameter HARMONIC NUMBER under BAND LOCK OFF was
increased from 40 to 62.

New Application Firmware FSE-K20/21, EDGE Mobile Tests and EDGE Base
Station Tests.

Firmware application FSE-K20 (order no. 1106.4086.02) extends option FSE-K10 and firmware
application FSE-K21 (order no.1106.4186.02) extends option FSE-K11 by the analysis of 8-PSK
modulated EDGE signals according to the standard.
In this way, the functions of firmware applications FSE-K10 and F SE-K11 is also available for EDGE
signals.

The functions of the options are described in the following manuals:

Extended Functionality for Vector Analyzer Operating Mode (Option FSE-B7)

Adaptation for EDGE - measurement with receiver filter

The EDGE measurem ent with a receiver filter and the EVM calculation are perf ormed according to
ETSI-TDOC

measurement modes. Since it is a lowpass filter intersymbol-interference-free (ISI-free) points no
longer occur in the display modes such as constellation diagr am and vector diagram . In addition, the
sync sequences provided in the unit were adapted by inverting the bits.

Note: If measurements are to be performed without a receiver filter, deactivate digital standard

Analog Demodulation - THD Measurement

SMG2 829/99 / ANNEX H. This specified filter is effective in all display and

EDGE (e.g. by switching from modulation parameter, meas filter from edge_mes to egde_r ef
and back to edge_mes).

The %THD ON/OFF softkey activates the %THD measurement (= similar to
SINAD measurement, but result displayed in %) for the main modulation signal.

Irrespective of the signal applied, the main m odulation signal is compared with
the main modulation signal which is filtered by a 1-kHz notch filter. T he display
unit is %.

When a signal modulated with 1 kHz is applied, the %THD value is thus
displayed correctly.
Default setting is %THD OFF.

With REAL TIME OFF (no real-time dem odulation) no %THD measurem ent is
possible, the softkey cannot be operated.

Trace Export for VECTOR ANALYZER Mode

Section "Measurement Function Selection – TRACE 1 to 4 Key" has been extended for the function
ASCII EXPORT.

ASCII
EXPORT

Structure of the ASCII file:

The file consists of the header containing important measur ement and scaling parameters and a data
section containing the trace data.
The data of the file header consist of three columns, each separated by a semicolon:
parameter name; numeric value; basic unit
The data section starts with the k eyword " Trace <n> " (<n> = number of s tored trace), followed by the
measured data in one or several columns (depending on measurem ent) which are also separ ated by a
semicolon.
This form at can be read in from spreadsheet calculation program s, e.g. MS-Excel. It is necessary to
define ';' as a separator.

In vector analyzer mode, the ASCII EXPORT softkey stores the corresponding
trace in a file with ASCII format. For measurement results that are output in written
text in tables (Symbol Table, Error Sum mary, Modulation Summ ary), this function
is not available.
Upon pressing the ASCII EXPORT softkey, a file name can be entered. The
default name is TRACE.DAT. Then the measured data of the trace are stored.
The function can be conf igured in the ASCII CONFIG submenu (see trac e export
for analyzer mode)

Extended Functionality for GSM BTS ANALYZER and GSM MS ANALYZER
Operating Modes

Functions for the GSM BTS ANALYZER and GSM MS ANALYZER modes have been considerably
extended:

• Additional power class P1 for GSM BTS Analyzer. The new power class P1 for Pico BTS is
supported.

• Extended settings range of output power for GSM BTS Analyzer
The settings range of output power now includes the gap between the power classes 8 and M1.
Settings in this range are indicated by a question mark "?" in the table of power classes.

• Trace averaging mode selectable (see description above for Analyzer mode).

Note for Option FSE-K10:

The measurement MODULATION SPECTRUM - RX BAND as specified in GSM-11.10, chapter

13.4.4, section d)

d) The resolution and video bandwidth on the spectrum analyzer are adjusted to 100 kHz and the

measurements are made at the following frequencies:

on every ARFCN from 1 800 kHz offset from the carrier to the edge of the relevant transmit band
for each measurement over 50 bursts.

at 200 kHz intervals over the 2 MHz either side of the relevant transmit band for each measurement
over 50 bursts.

at 200 kHz intervals over the band 925 - 960 MHz for each measurement over 50 bursts.

at 200 kHz intervals over the band 1805 - 1880 MHz for each measurement over 50 bursts.

covers also for the P-GSM the E-GSM RX band.
For firmware release 3.10 / 4.10 and above, the measurement covers the following bands:
Selected standard Modulation RX bands

P-GSM 925 – 960 MHz (instead of 935 to 960 MHz as before)
E-GSM 925 – 960 MHz
For RGSM the extended range from 921 MHz is used.
R-GSM 921 – 960 MHz

1065.6000.30 I E-24

New IEEE-Bus Commands

The new firmware was extended by the following IEEE-bus commands:

• %THD measurement (FSE-B7, analog demodulation).

• Query for currently used limits in operating modes GSM BTS ANALYZER (FSE-K11) and GSM MS

ANALYZER (FSE-K10), Phase Frequency Error measurement.

• Query for currently used limits in FSE-K20/K21 Modulation Accuracy measurement.

• Trace averaging method selectable.

New or extended commands for option FSE-B7 and firm ware applications FSE-K10, FSE-K11, FSE­K20, FSE-K21, FSE-K30 and FSE-K31 are included in the updated FSE operating manual and therefore
not described in this supplement.

The commands are listed in alphabetical order. In the individual desc ription, the c omplete notation of the
command is given. An example f or each c omm and, the *RST value and the SCPI inform ation is written
out at the end of the individual description. The modes for which a com m and can be used are indica ted
by the following abbreviations:

A Spectrum analysis
A-F Spectrum analysis - frequency domain only
A-Z Spectrum analysis - time domain only (zero span)
VA Vector signal analysis (option FSE-B7)
VA-D Vector signal analysis - digital demodulation (option FSE-B7)
VA-A Vector signal analysis - analog demodulation (option FSE-B7)
BTS GSM BTS analysis (options FSE-K11, FSE-K21, FSE-K31)
MS GSM MS analysis (options FSE-K10, FSE-K20, FSE-K30)

Note: The spectrum analysis (analyzer) mode is implemented in the basic unit. For the other modes,

the corresponding options are required.

:CALCulate<1|2>:MARKer<1...4>:FUNCtion:ADEMod:SINad:RESult?

This command queries the results of the SINAD or of the THD measurement. For SINAD the result is
given in dB, for THD in percent.

Example: ":CALC:MARK:FUNC:ADEM:SIN:RES?"
Features: *RST-Value: -

SCPI: device-specific
Mode: VA-A
This command is only a query which is why it is not assigned an *RST value.

:CALCulate<1|2>:MARKer<1...4>:FUNCtion:ADEMod:SINad:THD[:STATe] ON | OFF

This command switches the THD measurement on or off.SINAD and THD can not be active at the
same time. The result is queried with the same command as the result of the SINAD measurement
(see above).

Example: ":CALC:MARK:FUNC:ADEM:SIN:THD ON"
Features: *RST-Value: OFF

SCPI: device-specific
Mode: VA-A
This command is valid only in the analog demodulation mode with Real Time ON.

1065.6000.30 J E-24

Modification of Commands for GSM/EDGE Applications:

:CONFigure[:BTS]:LIMit:PPEak <numeric_value>

This command determines the phase error limits in degrees for the phase/frequency measurement
(peak value).

Example: ":CONF:LIM:PPE 66"
Features: *RST value: depends on selected standard

SCPI: device specific
Mode: BTS

For firmware 3.20/4.20 and higher, the query :CONFigure[:BTS]:LIMit:PPEak? reads out the error
limits currently used in the meas urement. I.e., if the standar d limits are used, thes e limits ar e read out,
and if the user limits are used, the set user limits are read out. For firmware versions < 3.20/4.20,
always the user limits were read out even if the standards limits were used.
This modification also applies to the following commands:

:CONFigure[:BTS]:LIMit:PRMS
:CONFigure[:BTS]:LIMit:EVMRms
:CONFigure[:BTS]:LIMit:EVMPeak
:CONFigure[:BTS]:LIMit:OSUPpress
:CONFigure[:BTS]:LIMit:PERCentile
:CONFigure[:BTS]:LIMit:FREQuency
:CONFigure[:MS]:LIMit:PPEak
:CONFigure[:MS]:LIMit:PRMS
:CONFigure[:MS]:LIMit:EVMRms
:CONFigure[:MS]:LIMit:EVMPeak
:CONFigure[:MS]:LIMit:OSUPpress
:CONFigure[:MS]:LIMit:PERCentile
:CONFigure[:MS]:LIMit:FREQuency

1065.6000.30 K E-24

Correction of the Operating Manual:

For the following commands, the correct *RST value is given below:

:CONFigure[:BTS]:NETWork:PHASe
:CONFigure[:MS]:NETWork:PHASe

These commands select the phase of the standard according to which the base/mobile station will
work.

Example: ":CONF:NETW:PHAS 2"
Features: *RST value: 2 for PGSM, EGSM, GSM1800

2,PLUS for RGSM

for GSM850 and GSM1900 no phases are available

SCPI: device-specific

Mode: BTS/MS

Extended Functionality:

:[SENSe<1|2>:]AVERage:TYPE MAXimum | MINimum | SCALar | VIDeo | LINear

This command selects the trace averaging method.
VIDeo Averaging of logarithmic level values.
LINear Averaging of linear power values prior to their conversion into level values.

Example: ":AVER:TYPE LIN"
Features: *RST value: VIDeo

SCPI: device-specific

Mode: A, VA, BTS, MS (“VIDeo“ and “LINear“ are not available in VA mode)

Note: It is also possible to select the evaluation mode (MAXimum, MINimum, SCAlar) for the

trace with this command. However, it is recommended to use command
DISPlay[:WINDow<1|2>]:TRACe<1...4>:MODE for this purpose. The command
AVERage:TYPE should be used only to select the trace averaging method. Also, the
query reads out the trace averaging mode only.

The following functions are defined but should not be used:

Using user-defined limit lines via the remote-control interface with options GSM
BTS ANALYZER and GSM MS ANALYZER, Options FSE-K10 and FSE-K11

If user-defined limit lines are to be rem ote-controlled in applications K10/K11, the following should be
observed:

• Limit lines can be created with the commands of the basic unit (CALC:LIM subsystem). Lines
created in such a way are available as limit line files in the unit and c annot be dis tinguished from the
"normal" limit lines.

• A user-defined limit line should meet certain criteria (example: Frequency Domain should be
selected for the transient spectrum measurement of K11) so that it can be used for a specific
K10/K11 measurement. If an attempt is m ade to activate a non-com patible line, the unit returns the
error message "-221, settings conflict".

• K10/K11 m easurem ents require either no limit line or one ( spurious , trans ient s pectrum , m odulation
spectrum) or two limit lines (power vs time measurement). To ensure that measurements are
performed as ex pected, select and activate at least the required number of limit lines (com mands
CALC1:LIM1:NAM and CALC1:LIM1:STATE) when using user-def ined limit lines. It is not possible
to activate a user-defined lim it line, e.g. in the power vs time m easurement, and then assume that
the application will automatically select the second line to standard.

• Suffix 1 is always to be used for measurements with one line: CALC1:LIM1 !

• For measurements with two lines, suffix 1 is to be used for lower limits and suffix 2 for upper limits.

• Af ter selec tion and activation of the required number of limit lines, it is possible to activate the use of

user-defined lines with comm and CONF:BTS:LIM:STAN OFF (K11) or CONF:MS:LIM:STAN OFF
(K10).

• It is recommended not to use the names of lines for the limit line standard (e.g. DC_BNL and
DC_BNU) as names of user-def ined limit lines in or der to mak e the query of limit line charac teristics

unambiguous.

Note: The ser ial interfaces can be used for remote c ontrol when the analyzer

is made the owner (Owner = Instrument). The settings made for the
serial interface in the menu SETUP - GENERAL SETUP overwrite the
settings in the NT menu..
However, settings in the Windows NT menu do not overwrite those of
the SETUP menu. This means that the settings are only valid as long as
the interface is assigned to the operating system.

3. Selection and installation of the printer driver

The selection and installation of the printer driver, the assignment to the inter face and the setting of
most of the printer-specific parameters (eg paper size) is performed under Windows NT in the
START - SETTINGS - PRINTER menu.

4. Configuration of the connected output device

The printer connected to the instrument is configured in the HARDCOPY DEVICE–SETTINGS
DEVICE1/2 menu (key group: HARDCOPY, see Chapter 4, Section "Selection and Configuration of

the Output Device "). The configur ation of one or two output devices (DEVICE1 and DEVICE2) can
be entered, at least one of which must be activated for printing.

• The parameter DEVICE/LANGUAGE determines which printer is used.

• The parameter PRINT TO FILE determines if the output is written to a file.

• The parameter ORIENTATION sets the page format to horizontal or vertical (landscape or

portrait).

Selecting the printer type automatically sets the parameters PRINT TO FILE and ORIENTATION to
values which correspond to the standard mode for this printer. Other printer-dependent param eters
such as FORMFEED, PAPERFEED etc., can be modified under Windows NT in the printer

properties window (START/SETTINGS/PRINTERS/SETTINGS/....).

Table 1-1 shows the standard factory settings for the two output devices.
The factory settings of DEVICE 1 corr espond to the "WMF" (W indows Metafile) output format, with

printout to a file. WMF is a common format which is used to import of hardcopies (eg of
measurement windows) to other Windows applications that support this format (eg WinWord).

The factory setting of DEVICE 2 is "Clipboar d". In this s etting, the printout is copied to the W indows
NT clipboard. Most Windows applications support the clipboard. The clipboard contents can be
directly inserted into a document with EDIT - PASTE.

Option FSE-B16 – Ethernet Adapter

With the option Ethernet Adapter FSE-B16, the devic e c an be c onnected to an Ethernet-LAN (local area
network). It is possible to transmit data via the network and to use the network printer. The adapter
operates with a 10 MHz Ethernet in line with standards IEEE 802.3 10Base2 (Thin Ethernet,
CheaperNet, BNC-Net) (B16 model 03) or 10Base5 (Thick Ethernet) (B16 model 02).

Hardware Installation

Caution:

Prior to installation contact the network administrator, especially in case of complex
LAN installations since mistakes in cabling might have influence the whole network.

If the adapter is installed at the factory, it is preconfigured. In case of retr ofitting, refer to the ins tallation
instructions. The hardware settings must not be modified since the functions of the device could
otherwise be impaired.

The following parameters are factory-set:

I/O Addr. 300, IRQ 5, MEM D0000

The connection with the network depends on the connectors used in the network.

BNC (Thin Ethernet, CheaperNet; FSE-B16 Var. 03)

Connection

Network traffic

Requirements

The device is looped into the LAN segm ent via rear-panel 2 BNC
connectors.
If a cable is not connected to one of the BNC connectors, this BNC
connector has to be terminated with 50 Ohm. BNC T connectors
must not be used.

Note that the network traffic is disturbed if a segment is interrupted.

Thin Ethernet segment requirements have to be complied with:

- maximum segment length of 185 m

- minimum distance between the connectors of 0.5 m

- maximum of 30 connectors per segment.
If components that comply with enhanced requirements are

exclusively used (Ethernet Adapter FSE-B16 complies with the
enhanced requirements):

- maximum length of segment of 300 m

- maximum number of connectors of 100
With repeaters used:

- maximum total length of the network of 900 m containing a

- maximum of 3 segments

- maximum of two repeaters between two connectors

1065.6016.12 1.44 E-8

FSE Options - with Windows NT Controller

AUI (Thick Ethernet; FSE B16 Var. 02)

Connection

Network traffic

Requirements

The device is connected to the LAN segment using a transceiver
cable (DB-15 AUI connector, not part of the equipment supplied)
which is connected to the rear panel and to the transceiver.

The connection does not conflict with the network traffic. T he devic e
can also be disconnected from the network without any problems
but make sure that data are not being transmitted.

The Thick Ethernet segment requirements have to be taken into
account.

- The maximum segment length should be 500 m and the

- distance between the connectors should at least be 2.5 m.

- A maximum of 100 connectors may be used in a segment.
With repeaters used,

- the total length of the network must not be more than 2500 m
containing

- a maximum of 3 segments.

- There should be no more than two repeaters between two
connectors.

If other network components are used, these conditions may vary.

RJ45 (UTP, 10BaseT, Western Connector)

Connection

Network traffic

Requirements

The device is connected to the LAN segment using a RJ45 c able
(not part of the equipment supplied) which is connected to the r ear
panel and to the network hub of the LAN segment.

This connection does not conflict with the network traffic. The
device can also be disconnected from the network without any
problems but make sure that data are not being transmitted.

Since RJ45 is not a bus but a star topology no special requirements
have to be taken into account for the connection.
The LAN requirements should be considered in the installation.

Software Installation

Data transmission within the network is by means of data blocks, the so-called pack ets. Besides user
data other information, the so-called protocol data (transmitter, receiver, type of data, order) are
transmitted. The drivers corresponding to the protocol have to be installed to process protocol
information. A network oper ating system is required for network services (data transmission, directory
services, printing in the network) and thus has to be installed.

Operation

After installing the network operating system it is poss ible to transf er data between the devic e and other

use network resources. Resources may be access to the file directories of other computers or the use of
a central printer. The network or server administr ator will grant the authorizations. The network name of
the resource and the corresponding authorization are required. Passwords protect the resources
against improper use. A user name is norm ally assigned to every authorized user. T he user also has a
password. Resources may then be assigned to the user. The type of access, i.e. whether data are only
read or also written as well as a shared access to data has to be defined. Other types are possible
depending on the network operating system.

NOVELL

Operating system NETW ARE from NOVELL is as server- supported system. Data transfer between the
individual workstations is not possible. Data trans fer is between workstation computers and a central
computer, the server. This server provides stor age capacity and the connection to the network printers.
Like under DOS, the data on a server are organized in director ies and ar e off ered to the works tation as
virtual drives. A virtual drive on a works tation is lik e a hard dis k and data can be pr ocess ed ac cordingly.
This is called drive mapping. Also network printers can be addressed as normal printers.
Network operating system NOVELL is available in two form s: NETW ARE 3 and NETW ARE 4 NDS. In
the previous version NETW ARE 3, each server m anages its own resources its elf and is independent. A
user has to be managed separately on each server. For NOVELL 4 NDS, all resourc es are m anaged in
the NDS (NOVELL DIRECTORY SERVICE). The user only has to log in once and gains access to the
resources released for him. The individual resources and the user are managed as objects in a
hierarchical tree (NDS TREE) . The position of the obj ect in the tree is called CONT EXT f or NETW ARE
and must be known in order to access the resources.

MICROSOFT

For MICROSOFT, data can be transferred between workstations (peer-to-peer) but also between
workstations and servers. The servers can provide acc es s to individual f iles as well as the connection to
network printers. Like under DOS, the data on a server are organized in director ies and are offered to
the workstation as virtual drives. A virtual drive on a workstation is like a hard disk and data can be
processed accordingly. This is called drive m apping. Also network printers c an be addressed as normal
printers. A connection to DOS, WINDOW S FOR WORKGROUPS, W INDOWS95, W INDOWS NT is
possible.

Installing a user

After the network software has been installed, the instrument logs with an error message during the next
start-up since there is no user "Instr ument" (= user identification for NT autologin) in the network. It is
therefore necessary to install a user which should be the sam e for Windows NT and for the network.
The network administrator is responsible for the installation of new users in the network.

Note: The installation of new users is possible only under the administrator identification (see

section "Controller Function").

½ Click "Start" in the task bar.
½ Click consecutively "Programs"

"Administrative Tools (Common)" and

Server Function

With the server function data can be provided on the instrument for use in other computers. This is
possible only in the MICROSOFT network. The server function is released af ter network installation as
standard. If this is not required, it should be deactivated, see "Installation of Network Services".

The availability of instrument data in the network is controlled by releases. The release is a property of
a file or of a directory. To grant a release, the obj ect is to be marked in "W indows NT Explorer" and
pressed by the right-hand mouse key. The release is performed under Properties -> Sharing by
selecting "Shared As". Other com puters can then acc ess thes e objec ts with the nam es allocated under
"Share Name". The online help gives further information on the network operation.

TCP/IP

The TCP/IP protocol allows files to be transmitted between different computer systems. A program
running on both computers is required to control the data transfer. T he same operating or file system
need not be used by the two partners. A file transfer is possible between DOS/W INDOW S and UNIX,
for example. One partner has to be configured as host the other as client or vice ver sa. The system
performing sever al processes at the s ame tim e (UNIX) will norm ally be the host. The us ual file tr ansfer
program used for TCP/IP is FTP (File Trans fer Protoc ol). An FT P host is installed as standard on m ost
of the UNIX systems.

After installing the TCP/IP services, a terminal link can be established with "Start" - "Programs" ­"Accessories" - "Telnet" or a data transmission with FTP using "Start" - "Run" "ftp" - "OK". Thus, all
controller systems can be accessed which support these universal protocols (UNIX, VMS, ...).

Further information is given in the NT online help which can be called up with "Help".
