Installation
2 Installation
Before putting the unit into operation for the first time, be sure to read and
observe the important safety and operating instructions supplied in the operating
manual.
If the software is not already installed, read the readme.txt file in the main
directory of the software package to determine the requirements and the procedure for installing the software.
If your CompactTSVP is equipped with an internal system controller, you can put
the instrument into operation as follows after connecting a monitor, keyboard and
mouse:
1. Switch on the R&S TSVP at the rear.
2. Log on under Windows (no password!).
3. Start the "R&S GTSL TSVP Self Test" in Windows start menu. Details of the
self-test are described in the "Service Manual CompactTSVP and PowerTSVP".
If your CompactTSVP should be controlled by an external computer with help of a
compact PCI bridge solution, you can put the instrument into operation as follows:
1. Install the R&S GTSL package on your computer. See "R&S GTSL Software
Description" for details.
2. Install the bridge module into your computer. Refer the appropriate manual
how to install the PC card and how to connect the components.
3. Connect the CompactTSVP to the computer.
4. Power on the CompactTSVP first.
5. Power on your computer.
6. Start the R&S GTSL "Instrument Soft Panels" application from the start menu.
All installed TSVP modules should be listed in the main window. In the "Tools"
menu use the option "Create Physical.ini…" to automatically generate the
configuration file. See "R&S GTSL Software Description" for details.
7. Start the "R&S GTSL TSVP Self Test" application from the Windows start
menu. Details of the self-test are described in the "Service Manual CompactTSVP and PowerTSVP".

Production Test Platforms
Product Overview
3 Product Overview
3.1 Production Test Platforms
3.1.1 R&S TS-PCA3
The Test System Versatile Platform R&S CompactTSVP is a standardized modular platform for the program-controlled testing of modules and terminals in the factory or laboratory. With its flexible configuration and the use of worldwide standards, it can be perfectly adapted to suit the needs of the user. Larger ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) systems can be created by combining R&S CompactTSVP
(TS-PCA3) and PowerTSVP (TS-PWA3). The production test platform is intended
for use with a control processor which performs the test on the test devices by
means of peripheral modules. This control processor is known as the system controller and should preferably be in the R&S CompactTSVP. However a standard
PC can also be used running across a suitable interface with the controller. The
system controller executes user-created sequences that define the test procedures and specification limits. The modules plugged into the R&S CompactTSVP
can be used for the creation of test and control signals and for the measuring
related evaluation of the response from the UUT. For this purpose they are able to
pass signals between each other and select signals under program control and
pass them to external measuring systems. The peripheral modules can be quickly
and flexibly adapted to the test devices by preceding the R&S CompactTSVP with
an adapter frame which connects the signals securely and with a low rate of wear.
If the production test requires switching functions with a large number of channels
or the switching of high currents, then the R&S CompactTSVP can be supplemented with a PowerTSVP. The R&S PowerTSVP is controlled via the CAN-Bus
of the R&S CompactTSVP.
3.1.2 R&S TS-PWA3
The R&S PowerTSVP is primarily intended as a flexible switching unit for measurement signals, signal sources and UUT loads. This facilitates the migration of
existing and proprietary "Rack and Stack" systems to a production test platform.
