Basic Safety Instructions

Operating states and operating positions

The product may be operated only under the operating conditions and in the positions specified by the
manufacturer, without the product's ventilation being obstructed. If the manufacturer's specifications are
not observed, this can result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury or death. Applicable local
or national safety regulations and rules for the prevention of accidents must be observed in all work
performed.

1. Unless otherwise specified, the following requirements apply to Rohde & Schwarz products:
predefined operating position is always with the housing floor facing down, IP protection 2X, use only
indoors, max. operating altitude 2000 m above sea level, max. transport altitude 4500 m above sea
level. A tolerance of ±10 % shall apply to the nominal voltage and ±5 % to the nominal frequency,
overvoltage category 2, pollution degree 2.

2. Do not place the product on surfaces, vehicles, cabinets or tables that for reasons of weight or stability
are unsuitable for this purpose. Always follow the manufacturer's installation instructions when
installing the product and fastening it to objects or structures (e.g. walls and shelves). An installation
that is not carried out as described in the product documentation could result in personal injury or
even death.

3. Do not place the product on heat-generating devices such as radiators or fan heaters. The ambient
temperature must not exceed the maximum temperature specified in the product documentation or in
the data sheet. 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.

1171.0000.42 - 08 Page 4

Basic Safety Instructions

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.

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 EN 55011/CISPR 11, and analogously with EN 55022/CISPR 22,
EN 55032/CISPR 32)

Characteristics

1.1 General

The ROHDE & SCHWARZ High-power Switch Module R&S TS-PSM5 is intended for
the test platform R&S CompactTSVP and R&S PowerTSVP. The module occupies two
slots. Control of the module is via the CAN bus.

The module is available in two versions:

●

It can be ordered with a connector of the Virginia Panel Corp. (VPC) on the front of
the module as R&S TS-PSM5 (variant 03), order no. 1519.2768.03. The connector
is connected to the individual channels of the module via terminals on the base
board using a pre-assembled cable set.

●

The R&S TS-PSM5B (variant 02), order no. 1519.2768.02, is delivered without
VPC, the user can connect his loads or power supply units with his own cables via
apertures on the front plate of the module to the terminals of the channels.

A soft panel is available for operating the R&S TS-PSM5. Control is via an IVI switch
driver.

1.2 Safety advice

The R&S CompactTSVP and R&S PowerTSVP test platforms are principally designed
for operating voltages up to 125 V. The R&S TS-PSM5 is suitable for voltages of up to
+24 VDC and must only be used correspondingly. When higher currents are run
through, relays and circuit board can become very hot.

The lifetime of the 50 A relays is dependent on the power to be switched. It is therefore
recommended for large currents to increase the voltage after the close of the contact, if
it is to be above 14 V. At a maximum operating frequency of 1 Hz it is in addition to
observe a ratio of 1:10 between the on and the off state. In permanent operation of the
50 A relays with low switching voltages and low switching currents there is a risk of an
increase in the contact resistance due to a forming film on the contact surfaces. It is
therefore recommended to regularly switch the contacts under load (eg. 10 A / 12 V).

5.1 R&S TS-PSM5

(see Chapter 3, "Block diagram", on page 6)

5.1.1 Signal concept

The power relays of all channels of the R&S TS-PSM5 can be wired up with power
supplies or loads via the front of the module. In addition all channels can be routed to
the rear of the R&S TS-PWA3 PowerTSVP chassis via the optional R&S TS-PRIO5
Rear-I/O-Module. In the R&S TS-PCA3 CompactTSVP chassis there is the option to
route all 2 A channels and 50 A channels 5 and 8 to the rear via the R&S TS-PK04
cable set.

Each channel can be used as a sense line or power line in order to create a connection
between load and power supply unit.

The voltage drop corresponding to the current flow through each channel of the R&S
TS-PSM5 can be measured via shunt resistors on the 2 A channels and current-volt­age-converter on the 50 A channels via the chassis’s analogue bus. The exact value of
the shunt resistors is determined when calibrating the module. Similarly, for each 50 A
channel the current-voltage characteristics exists.These values are used for calculating
the actual current through the channel. The amount of current through a channel can
be retrieved from the module via the IVI switch driver when the measured voltage level
is specified.

The R&S TS-PSM5 (variant 03) can be ordered with a Virginia Panel Corp. (VPC) con­nector on the front of the module. The connector is connected to the individual chan­nels of the module via terminals on the base board using a pre-assembled cable set. In
the R&S TS-PSM5B (variant 02 ) without VPC the user can connect his loads or power
supply units with his own cables via apertures on the front plate of the module to the
terminals of the channels.

The short-circuit relays between adjacent 50 A channels can be loaded only up to 30
A. They are intended for system- and self-test purposes.

5.1.2 System Functions

The system functions are implemented by a local processor with internal Flash. There
is also an external FRAM. The cycle counters of all relays on the R&S TS-PSM5 are
located in the FRAM. The readings can be retrieved from the module via the IVI switch
driver.

Communication with the system controller in the CompactTSVP or an external control
computer is via the CAN bus.

5.1.3 Application examples

5.1.3.1 Measuring current during active load

A typical application example for the use of a R&S TS-PSM5 module is connection of a
load to a voltage supply. In the example shown below (Figure 5-1) the voltage supply is
connected to the COM lines on the rear of the R&S TS-PSM5 . This can be done via
the R&S TS-PRIO5 optionally installed in the R&S TS-PWA3 or the R&S TS-PK04
cable set in the TS-PCA3 chassis. The load is connected to the NO lines located on
the front of the R&S TS-PSM5 . The voltage supply’s force lines are lead along to the
load via two 50 A channels , whereas the sense lines are lead along 2 A channels.

the 50 A channels, can be determined via a current-voltage-converter (I-V). The output
voltage of the converter is conducted via the R&S TS-PSM5’s matrix- or coupling
relays to the analogue bus of the R&S TS-PWA3 chassis and from there to, for exam­ple, the R&S TS-PSAM measurement module. The measurement module’s voltmeter
ascertains the voltage. Via the rspsm5_GetCalculatedCurrent function of the IVI soft­ware driver that is part of the R&S TS-PSM5 , the current belonging to this voltage
level can be retrieved. It is calculated via correction values stored on the module. See
also the programming example later on in this document.

When current flows from the NO- to the COM- Connection of a 50 A channel gives a
positive voltage value at the current-voltage-converter. If the current flows in the
reverse direction, a negative voltage value is measured.

The current paths are coloured red in the diagram above, the lines with sense voltage
are blue and the paths over which the current-voltage-converter´s voltage is measured
are coloured green.

R&S TS-PSM5

5.1.3.2 Current measurement with load in standby mode

If now the small amount of residual current is to be determined by the load, if the latter
is in standby mode, another version of switching is chosen. The current-voltage con­verter in the 50 A channels work in the range of 350 mA (typ.) to 50 A. At current
strengths below 350 mA (typ.) a return value of 0 A would be received from the IVI
software driver function using the method described above.

Small currents up to one ampere can be measured directly from the R&S TS-PSAM
module’s ammeter. If the current measurement gives a value via the high power chan­nel’s current-voltage converter that is less than or equal to 1 A, then the switching as
shown in Figure 5-2 can be used for the current measurement. With the channel 5 high
power relay opened, the entire current is conducted via matrix- and coupling relays on
the R&S TS-PWA3’s analogue bus and from there to the ampere meter of the R&S TS­PSAM’s measurement module. These lines are coloured red.

The analogue bus lines of the R&S CompactTSVP and R&S PowerTSVP are designed
for a maximum current strength of 1 A.

Channel wiring of the R&S TS-PSM5B (variant 02)

6.1 Channel wiring of the R&S TS-PSM5B (variant 02)

In contrast to the completely cabled R&S TS-PSM5 (variant 03) with mounted VPC
connector, the R&S TS-PSM5B (variant 02) is supplied without channel wiring and with
simple front plate. In this version the user can himself carry out the wiring of the chan­nels that he needs. For this purpose suitable wires are run from the terminals of the
individual channels on the module’s base board via the module’s front plate openings
outward to a load or power source.

To be able to reach all the terminals on the base board, the plate used for reinforcing
the module and the digital circuit board underneath it must be removed.

For this purpose the module must be placed on a non-slip surface. Care must be taken
that in doing so the components on the underneath of the module are not damaged.
The plate is unscrewed via three screws on the top of the module and two screws on
the front plate of the module. The digital circuit board is fixed to the module’s base
board by three screws. If these screws are undone the connection between digital cir­cuit board and base board can be carefully disconnected.

When subsequently putting the module back together again it must be ensured that the
stabilising plate is also properly mounted again. Although this does not affect the func­tioning of the module, it is mandatory in order to prevent the module from bending
when mounting it into the R&S TS-PCA3 or R&S TS-PWA3 chassis. This could lead to
the X1 and X2 high current connectors not sitting perfectly and an increased contact
resistance occurring to the rear-mounted R&S TS-PRIO5 or the R&S TS-PK04 cable
set.

(see Figure 6-2 to Figure 6-4)

In order to be able to connect a wire to a terminal of 50 A channels 5 to 8, the termi­nal’s metal spring must first be pushed far enough, using a flat-head screwdriver, to
clear the opening that will take the wire. To do so the screwdriver must be placed in the
upper square opening of the terminal. The metal spring can be pressed down by a light
lever action and the screwdriver pushed into the terminal as far as it will go.

6.2 Installation of the R&S TS-PSM5

6.2.1 Installation of the R&S TS-PSM5 in the CompactTSVP R&S TS­PCA3

For installation in the R&S TS-PCA3 CompactTSVP slots 4\5 to 15\16 are allowed,
although in most cases it only makes sense to operate in slots 15\16. In slots 4\5 to
13\14 the R&S TS-PSM5 can only be operated if a R&S TS-PRIO or R&S TS-PRIO4
module is present on the corresponding rear slot of the TSVP with version 4.0 of the
backplane. This is the only way that the R&S TS-PSM5 can be connected to the nec­essary power supply in these slots. In the CompactTSVP it is not possible to use the
R&S TS-PRIO5 in a rear slot.

In slots 15\16 of the R&S TS-PCA3 CompactTSVP the voltage supply of the R&S TS­PSM5 is guaranteed even without R&S TS-PRIO(4) module via the X20 connector. In
these slots all 2 A and the 50 A channels 5 und 8 can be run via the optional R&S TS­PK04 cable set even to the rear of the R&S TS-PCA3 CompactTSVP to connectors X3
and X4.

To install plug-in module High-Power Switch Module R&S TS-PSM5 , proceed as fol­lows:

●

Shut down and switch off the R&S TS-PCA3 CompactTSVP.

●

Select an appropriate front slot. The R&S TS-PSM5 requires two slots.

Bent pins may result in permanent damage to the backplane.

Check the backplane connector for bent pins!

Any pins that are bent must be straightened!

When module is connected, it must be guided with both hands and carefully pressed
into the backplane connector.

6.2.2 Installation of the R&S TS-PSM5 in the PowerTSVP R&S TS-PWA3

Slots 1\2 to 15\16 are permitted for installation in the R&S TS-PWA3 PowerTSVP . The
voltage supply for the R&S TS-PSM5 is guaranteed on all slots in the R&S TS-PWA3
PowerTSVP even without a R&S TS-PRIO module attached to the rear. Optionally the
R&S TS-PRIO5 module can be placed in rear slots 1\2 to 13\14. With this module all 2
A and all 50 A channels can be made accessible on the rear of the R&S TS-PWA3
PowerTSVP. If the R&S TS-PSM5 is operated in slots 15\16, there is the capability for
both R&S TS-PWA3 PowerTSVP and R&S TS-PCA3 CompactTSVP to run all 2 A
channels and the 50 A channels 5 and 8 to the X3 and X4 connectors on the rear of
the chassis via the optional R&S TS-PK04 cable set.

Installation in slots 1\2 must be carried out with the utmost care, as components on the
underneath of the R&S TS-PSM5 can be damaged via contact with the adjacent power
supply unit. It must be ensured that after the installation there are no points of contact
between the HF seal of the power supply unit, which may be warped, and the R&S TS­PSM5 . For safety reasons it is recommended that slots 1\2 in the R&S TS-PWA3
PowerTSVP may not be used for the R&S TS-PSM5.

To install plug-in module High-Power Switch Module R&S TS-PSM5, proceed as fol­lows:

●

This example connects an external power supply to a load via TS-PSM5

channels 5 and 6. The power supply is connected to CH5_COM and

CH6_COM at the rear of the module TS-PSM5 and the load is connected

to CH5_NO and CH6_NO at the front of the module. The sense-lines of

the power supply are routed to the load via TS-PSM5 channels 1 and 2.

The current through channel 6 is determined indirectly by measuring

the voltage at the current-voltage-converter of channel 6.

Later on, the load is set to standby mode and the low standby current

is measured directly via the ampere meter of TS-PSAM. Therefore

the power relay of channel 5 is opened and the standby current is

bypassed via matrix relays to the analog bus and TS-PSAM module.
