Basic Safety Instructions
Electrical safety
If the information on electrical safety is not observed either at all 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
use of the product may have to be changed accordingly.
f
2. In the case of products of safety class I with movable power cord and connector, operation is
permitted only on sockets with an earthing contact and protective earth connection.
3. 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.
4. If the product does not have a power switch for disconnection from the AC supply network, the plug of
the connecting cable is regarded as the disconnecting device. In such cases, always ensure that the
power plug is easily reachable and accessible at all times (corresponding to the length of connecting
cable, approx. 2 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, a
disconnecting device must be provided at the system level.
5. Never use the product if the power cable is damaged. Check the power cable on a regular basis to
ensure that it is in proper operating condition. By taking appropriate safety measures and carefully
laying the power cable, you can ensure that the cable will not 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 fused 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. 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, fusing, 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 PE terminal on site and the
product's PE 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 fused 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.
1171.0000.42-05.00 Page 3
Basic Safety Instructions
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.
6. Unless specified otherwise, products are not liquid-proof (see also section "Operating states and
1
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", 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.
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. 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).
1171.0000.42-05.00 Page 4
Basic Safety Instructions
Repair and service
1. The product may be opened only by authorized, specially trained personnel. Before any work is

documentación del producto, a fin de evitar lesiones (p. ej. debidas a irradiación láser).
Reparación y mantenimiento
1. El producto solamente debe ser abierto por personal especializado con autorización para ello. Antes
de manipular el producto o abrirlo, es obligatorio desconectarlo de la tensión de alimentación, para
evitar toda posibilidad de choque eléctrico.
2. El ajuste, el cambio de partes, el mantenimiento y la reparación deberán ser efectuadas solamente
por electricistas autorizados por Rohde & Schwarz. Si se reponen partes con importancia para los
aspectos de seguridad (p. ej. el enchufe, los transformadores o los fusibles), solamente podrán ser
sustituidos por partes originales. Después de cada cambio de partes relevantes para la seguridad
deberá realizarse un control de seguridad (control a primera vista, control del conductor de
protección, medición de resistencia de aislamiento, medición de la corriente de fuga, control de
funcionamiento). Con esto queda garantizada la seguridad del producto.
Baterías y acumuladores o celdas
Si no se siguen (o se siguen de modo insuficiente) las indicaciones en cuanto a las baterías y
acumuladores o celdas, pueden producirse explosiones, incendios y/o lesiones graves con posible
consecuencia de muerte. El manejo de baterías y acumuladores con electrolitos alcalinos (p. ej. celdas de
litio) debe seguir el estándar EN 62133.
1. No deben desmontarse, abrirse ni triturarse las celdas.
2. Las celdas o baterías no deben someterse a calor ni fuego. Debe evitarse el almacenamiento a la luz
directa del sol. Las celdas y baterías deben mantenerse limpias y secas. Limpiar las conexiones
sucias con un paño seco y limpio.
3. Las celdas o baterías no deben cortocircuitarse. Es peligroso almacenar las celdas o baterías en
estuches o cajones en cuyo interior puedan cortocircuitarse por contacto recíproco o por contacto con
otros materiales conductores. No deben extraerse las celdas o baterías de sus embalajes originales
hasta el momento en que vayan a utilizarse.
4. Mantener baterías y celdas fuera del alcance de los niños. En caso de ingestión de una celda o
batería, avisar inmediatamente a un médico.
5. Las celdas o baterías no deben someterse a impactos mecánicos fuertes indebidos.

Informaciones elementales de seguridad
6. En caso de falta de estanqueidad de una celda, el líquido vertido no debe entrar en contacto con la
piel ni los ojos. Si se produce contacto, lavar con agua abundante la zona afectada y avisar a un
médico.
7. En caso de cambio o recarga inadecuados, las celdas o baterías que contienen electrolitos alcalinos
(p. ej. las celdas de litio) pueden explotar. Para garantizar la seguridad del producto, las celdas o
baterías solo deben ser sustituidas por el tipo Rohde & Schwarz correspondiente (ver lista de
recambios).
8. Las baterías y celdas deben reciclarse y no deben tirarse a la basura doméstica. Las baterías o
acumuladores que contienen plomo, mercurio o cadmio deben tratarse como residuos especiales.
Respete en esta relación las normas nacionales de eliminación y reciclaje.
Transporte
1. El producto puede tener un peso elevado. Por eso es necesario desplazarlo o transportarlo con
precaución y, si es necesario, usando un sistema de elevación adecuado (p. ej. una carretilla
elevadora), a fin de evitar lesiones en la espalda u otros daños personales.
2. Las asas instaladas en los productos sirven solamente de ayuda para el transporte del producto por
personas. Por eso no está permitido utilizar las asas para la sujeción en o sobre medios de transporte
como p. ej. grúas, carretillas elevadoras de horquilla, carros etc. Es responsabilidad suya fijar los
productos de manera segura a los medios de transporte o elevación. Para evitar daños personales o
daños en el producto, siga las instrucciones de seguridad del fabricante del medio de transporte o
elevación utilizado.
3. Si se utiliza el producto dentro de un vehículo, recae de manera exclusiva en el conductor la
responsabilidad de conducir el vehículo de manera segura y adecuada. El fabricante no asumirá
ninguna responsabilidad por accidentes o colisiones. No utilice nunca el producto dentro de un
vehículo en movimiento si esto pudiera distraer al conductor. Asegure el producto dentro del vehículo
debidamente para evitar, en caso de un accidente, lesiones u otra clase de daños.
Eliminación
1. Si se trabaja de manera mecánica y/o térmica cualquier producto o componente más allá del
funcionamiento previsto, pueden liberarse sustancias peligrosas (polvos con contenido de metales
pesados como p. ej. plomo, berilio o níquel). Por eso el producto solo debe ser desmontado por
personal especializado con formación adecuada. Un desmontaje inadecuado puede ocasionar daños
para la salud. Se deben tener en cuenta las directivas nacionales referentes a la eliminación de
residuos.
2. En caso de que durante el trato del producto se formen sustancias peligrosas o combustibles que
deban tratarse como residuos especiales (p. ej. refrigerantes o aceites de motor con intervalos de
cambio definidos), deben tenerse en cuenta las indicaciones de seguridad del fabricante de dichas
sustancias y las normas regionales de eliminación de residuos. Tenga en cuenta también en caso
necesario las indicaciones de seguridad especiales contenidas en la documentación del producto. La
eliminación incorrecta de sustancias peligrosas o combustibles puede causar daños a la salud o
daños al medio ambiente.

Disconnect the DUT from the DC outputs when switching the instrument on
and off
When you switch the R&S®FSUP on or off, pulses of up to 7 V can occur at the
DC outputs of the instrument. Some DUTs may not be prepared for such voltages. Therefore, it is recommended that you disconnect such DUTs from the
R&S®FSUP before you switch the instrument on or off. Alternatively, apply suitable voltage limiters to the inputs of the DUTs to protect them against excess voltages.

Trigger Port (Option R&S FSP-B28)
Using the pins 14 and 15 of the 25-pin trigger port connector (option R&S FSP-B28), the
instrument is able to control an external user-specific box for performing load pulling
measurements.
In the logical bit state [bit1=L, bit0=L], the R&S FSUP assumes that the nominal instrument
input impedance (50 Ohms) is effective. Two other states enable control for user specific
termination loads (for details on the states see table below).
The VCO PULLING ON/OFF softkey and the corresponding remote
control commands are only effective if the hardware option FSP-B28 is
installed.
Otherwise the instrument cannot switch the termination by hardware
control and three identical curves are displayed on the screen.
The total impedance for the DUT is defined by the interconnection network consisting of the
following:
• instrument's input impedance
• user-specific external termination impedance
• transmission lines between DUT and termination and between termination and instrument
respectively
The following table explains the states of the switching signal:
In addition, the connector supplies the following voltages and ground respectively:

20.4 MHz IF Output (IF OUT 20.4 MHz)
The 20.4 MHz IF signal of the R&S FSUP is provided at the 20.4 MHz OUT female BNC
connector. For resolution bandwidths between 100 kHz and 10 MHz, the bandwidth
corresponds to the selected bandwidth. For bandwidths ≤100 kHz, the bandwidth of the output
is equal to 2.6 * resolution bandwidth, where the minimum value is 2.6 kHz (non-FFT). In the
analyzer mode, the level at the IF output in the case of a signal at the reference level is 0 dBm
if the resolution bandwidth is ≥100 kHz; if the resolution bandwidth is <100 kHz, the level is
-10 dBm (for mixer levels ≥ -60 dBm).
Use suitable double shielded cables.
404.4 MHz IF Output (IF OUT 404.4 MHz)
The 404.4 MHz IF signal of the R&S FSUP is provided at the 404.4 MHz OUT female BNC
connector.
Video Output (VIDEO OUT)
In analyzer mode, the voltage of the analog detector (video) is output via the BNC connector
VIDEO OUT.
The video signal is unfiltered, i.e. the video bandwidth (VBW) setting on the instrument has no
effect on the video output. The usable video bandwidth is limited only by the set resolution
bandwidth (RBW) to approximately ½ * RBW.
The output voltage is always logarithmic, independent of the selected scaling on the display.
Likewise the selected detectors (e.g. RMS) affect only the display but not the video output. The
output impedance is 50 Ω. All subsequent voltage values are typical values and apply to the
output without load.
With RBW = 100 kHz as well as with all root raised cosine (RRC) and channel filters no video
signal is available.

➢ Start the self test with the SETUP key, SERVICE – SELFTEST softkeys. Once the
instrument modules have been checked successfully, the message Selftest Passed will
appear.
Once both steps have been completed successfully, the instrument will be ready for operation.
The self alignment does not need to be repeated every time the
instrument is switched on, because the instrument saves the values
and loads them during booting automatically. A self alignment is
recommended if the instrument is used at a temperature that differs
considerable (more than 10°C) from the temperature present at the last
self alignment.
The self test also does not need to be repeated every time the
instrument is switched on. It is necessary only when instrument
malfunction is suspected.

The generator is controlled via the – optional – second GPIB interface of the R&S FSUP
(= IEC2, supplied together with the option). With some Rohde & Schwarz generators, it is also
controlled via the TTL synchronization interface that is contained in the AUX CONTROL
interface of the R&S FSUP.
• Using the TTL interface allows you to attain significantly higher
speeds than possible with a pure GPIB control, because the
frequency switching mechanism of the R&S FSUP is directly coupled
to the frequency switching mechanism of the generator.
• To increase measurement accuracy, use a shared reference
frequency to operate the R&S FSUP and the generator. If no
independent 10 MHz reference frequency is available, connect the
reference output of the generator to the reference input of the R&S
FSUP and use SETUP – REFERENCE EXT to configure the R&S
FSUP to implement the external reference.

2.4.8 Installing Plug&Play Printers
Plug&play printers can be easily installed under Windows XP:
After you connect and switch on a printer, Windows XP automatically detects the printer and
installs the associated driver, provided that the driver is contained in the Windows XP
installation.
If Windows XP does not find the printer driver, it will prompt you to enter a path for the
associated installation files. In addition to the pre-installed drivers, a number of additional
printer drivers are found in the D:\I386 directory.
You can find a detailed step-by-step procedure in Appendix A, section “ Installing Non-
Plug&Play Printers” on page A.6.
When you install printer drivers that are not pre-installed on the
instrument, the installation process will prompt you to specify the path
containing the new driver. This can be a disk in drive A. Alternatively,
the driver can also be loaded from a memory stick or USB CD-ROM
drive (see the section “ Connecting USB Devices (e.g. a Power Meter)”

“ Installing Non-Plug&Play Printers” on page A.6.
2.5 Configuring the LAN Interface
The instrument can be connected to an Ethernet LAN (local area network) using the LAN
interface connector on the rear panel. This makes it possible to transfer data over the network
and to use network printers. In addition, the instrument can be remote-controlled via the
network. The network card can be operated with a 10 MHz Ethernet IEEE 802.3 or a 100 MHz
Ethernet IEEE 802.3u interface.
2.5.1 Connecting the Instrument to the Network
Before connecting the instrument to the network, consult your network administrator,
particularly in the case of large LAN installations. Connection errors may affect the entire
network.
Connect a conventional RJ-45 cable (not supplied) to the rear panel of the instrument and a
network hub of the required LAN segment. Since the RJ-45 involves star configuration rather
than bus cabling, no special measures need to be taken.
Setting up the connection does not cause any problems on the network. Likewise,
disconnecting the instrument from the network does not cause any problems as long as no
data traffic to and from the instrument is in progress.
2.5.2 Configuring the Network Card
2.5.2.1 Driver Installation
Under Windows XP, network card drivers do not need to be installed separately.
All you need to do is connect the network cable to the LAN-Interface connector on the
instrument rear panel. Windows XP automatically detects the network connection and
activates the required drivers.

LXI Configuration
2.6 LXI Configuration
LAN eXtensions for Instrumentation (LXI) is an instrumentation platform for measuring
instruments and test systems that is based on standard Ethernet technology. LXI is intended
to be the LAN-based successor to GPIB, combining the advantages of Ethernet with the
simplicity and familiarity of GPIB.
• Class C instruments are characterized by a common LAN implementation, including an
ICMP ping responder for diagnostics. The instruments can be configured via a web
browser; a LAN Configuration Initialize (LCI) mechanism resets the LAN configuration.
The LXI class C instruments shall also support automatic detection in a LAN via the VXI-11
discovery protocol and programming by means of IVI drivers.
• Class B adds IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and peer-to-peer communication
to the base class. IEEE 1588 allows all instruments on the same network to automatically
synchronize to the most accurate clock available and then provide time stamps or timebased synchronization signals to all instruments with exceptional accuracy.
• Class A instruments are additionally equipped with the eight-channel hardware trigger bus
(LVDS interface) defined in the LXI standard.
Instruments of classes A and B can generate and receive software triggers via LAN messages
and communicate with each other without involving the controller.
The R&S FSUP complies with LXI class C. In addition to the general class C features
described above, it provides the following LXI-related functionality:
• Integrated LXI Configuration dialog for LXI activation and reset of the LAN configuration
(LAN Configuration Initialize, LCI).
The LXI functionality requires a Windows XP operating system that has
been upgraded to service pack 2. Please contact your Rohde &
Schwarz service representative if your R&S FSUP's operating system
needs an upgrade. To check the version of your operating system,
open the Versions+Options dialog box in the General Setup submenu.
After a firmware update, use the standby key to shut-down and re-start
the instrument in order to enable the full LXI functionality.

state. For details on resetting the R&S FSUP refer to the Operating Manual, chapter 4.
Parameter Value
TCP/IP Mode DHCP + Auto IP Address
Dynamic DNS Enabled
ICMP Ping Enabled
Password for LAN configuration LxiWeb
Ifc
The LAN Reset for the R&S FSUP also resets the following parameters:
Parameter Value
Description R&S Signal Source Analyzer/FSUP/<serial number>
Negotiation Enabled
VXI-11 Discovery Enabled
The LAN settings are configured using the instrument's LXI Browser Interface.
2.6.2 LXI Browser Interface
The instrument's LXI browser interface works correctly with all W3C compliant browsers.
Typing the instrument's host name or IP address in the address field of the browser on your
PC, e.g. http://10.113.10.203 , opens the Instrument Home Page (welcome page).
The instrument home page displays the device information required by the LXI standard
including the VISA resource string in read-only format.
The LAN Status toggle button causes the LXI logo in the status bar of the R&S FSUP to blink
(if active). A green LXI status symbol indicates that a LAN connection has been established;
a red symbol indicates that no LAN cable is connected. The LAN Status setting is not
password-protected.
The navigation pane of the browser interface contains the following control elements:
• LAN Configuration opens the LAN Configuration page.
• LXI Glossary opens a document with a glossary of terms related to the LXI standard.
• Status displays information about the LXI status of the instrument.

R&S FSUP Preparing for Use
LXI Configuration
2.6.3 LAN Configuration website
The LAN Configuration web page displays all mandatory LAN parameters and allows their
modification.
The TCP/IP Mode configuration field controls how the IP address for the instrument gets
assigned (see also <Link to IP Address Settings>). For the manual configuration mode, the
static IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway are used to configure the LAN. The
automatic configuration mode uses DHCP server or Dynamic Link Local Addressing
(Automatic IP) to obtain the instrument IP address.
Changing the LAN configuration is password-protected. The password
reads LxiWebIfc (notice upper and lower case characters).
The links across the bottom of the LAN Configuration page open other pages:
Ping Client provides the ping utility to verify the connection between the instrument and other
devices.
Advanced LAN Configuration provides LAN settings that are not declared mandatory by the
LXI standard.
The Advanced LAN Configuration parameters are used as follows:
• The Negotiation configuration field provides different Ethernet speed and duplex mode
settings. In general, the Auto Detect mode is sufficient.
• ICMP Ping must be enabled to use the ping utility.
• VXI-11 is the protocol that is used for discovery of the instrument in the LAN. According to
the standard, LXI devices must use VXI-11 to provide a discovery mechanism; other
additional discovery mechanisms are permitted.
2.6.4 Ping
Ping is a utility that verifies the connection between the LXI-compliant instrument and another
device. The ping command uses the ICMP echo request and echo reply packets to determine
whether the LAN connection is functional. Ping is useful for diagnosing IP network or router
failures.
The ping utility is not password-protected. To initiate a ping between the LXI-compliant
instrument and a second connected device,
1. Enable ICMP Ping on the Advanced LAN Configuration page (enabled after an LCI).
2. Enter the IP address of the second device without the ping command and without any
further parameters into the Destination Address field (e.g. 10.113.10.203).
3. Click Submit.

displayed for the active trace. The active trace is indicated by the
phrase in square brackets, [T1] for trace 1 in the example. This
function provides quick access to these values instead of reading
them out via several markers.
Spur List see Fig. 4-4 The list of detected spurs is displayed, starting with the spur
measured at the lowest frequency. If the spur list cannot be
displayed as a whole, a scrollbar is provided for navigating through
the list. Alternatively, the spur list is output via remote control.
