Basic Safety Instructions
1171.0000.42 - 09 Page 3
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.
Basic Safety Instructions
1171.0000.42 - 09 Page 4
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
rms
> 30 V, suitable measures (e.g. appropriate
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.
Basic Safety Instructions
1171.0000.42 - 09 Page 5
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)

The R&S UPV audio analyzer is available in two models. The R&S UPV standard
model and an R&S UPV66 model which is specifically designed for use in systems and has no display, no front panel controls and no CD/DVD drive. Except for
the operation via front panel, the R&S UPV66 variant is largely identical to the
standard model with respect to functionality. This manual therefore describes both
instruments in parallel, and any differences are indicated at the appropriate points
in the text.
This chapter describes the controls and ports of the R&S audio analyzer UPV
based on the front and rear view and shows how to put the instrument into operation. It also describes the connection of peripherals such as printer, keyboard,
mouse and monitor. Specifications for the interfaces can be found in the data
sheet.
The introduction to Chapter 3.1, "Introduction - Getting Started", on page 91
provides an overview of the functions and the operating concept of the audio analyzer. Detailed operating instructions and an overview of the menus are provided
in Chapter 4.1, "Introduction - Manual Operation", on page 140.
The instrument help (and the PDF and online manual on the Internet) comprise
the entire manual: The individual menus and functions of the instrument including
the associated remote-control commands are explained in detail in chapter
"Instrument Functions". Information on remote control of the instrument is provided in the chapters "Remote Control - Fundamentals" and "Remote Control Commands Description". A detailed description of the instrument interfaces can
be found in the chapter "Maintenance and Instrument Interfaces".

R&S®UPV
Description of Front View
The audio analyzer has a Windows operating system. No special knowledge of the operating system used is required for operating the instrument.
Basic PC knowledge, such as what a file, a directory, etc. is, or how data is
transferred using Windows Explorer® is assumed and, therefore, not discussed in any detail.
The R&S UPV audio analyzer can be operated via the controls on the front
panel. It is, however, recommended - and for certain functions required - to
operate the instrument using an external keyboard and mouse. Operation
follows the same basic rules which apply to other Windows programs in use
today. It is also assumed that users are familiar with these basic rules. This
information is therefore not specified in detail here.
The R&S UPV66 model does not feature a front panel keyboard and has no
display or CD/DVD drive; but similar to the R&S UPV standard model, it can
be operated by means of a keyboard or mouse after an external monitor is
connected.

The drivers and programs used in the instrument under Windows have
been adapted to the measuring instrument. Existing instrument software
must only be modified with update software released by Rohde & Schwarz.
Only the settings described below may be performed.
In its delivery state, the configuration of Windows is optimized to the functions of
the audio analyzer. Changes in the system setup are only required when peripherals like a keyboard or printer are installed or in the event that the network configuration does not correspond to the default settings (see sections below). After
switching on the audio analyzer, the operating system boots and the instrument
firmware is started automatically without a password prompt (auto login).
Auto login is performed with the user name and the password "instrument".
The user has administrator rights so that printer and network installations
are possible.
The operating system can only be accessed if an external keyboard is connected.
The Windows key on the external keyboard (next to the [STRG] key) opens the
Windows start menu; the Windows programs can then be called from this menu.

Devices with FMR9
Special features with the FMR9:
The Windows XP operating system used is only able to support a maximum of
two monitors simultaneously. One of the two monitors is the internal LC display.
This means that only one external monitor can be controlled even if the R&S UPV
with FMR9 has an analog VGA and a digital DVI port. The default setting
assumes that the internal monitor and one external analog VGA monitor is used.
The connected external monitor determines the behavior during the boot procedure depending on the selected setting under Windows: If an external analog
VGA monitor is connected and "Notebook + Monitor" has been selected under
Windows, both screens show the same content during the boot procedure and
when Windows is running. If a digital DVI monitor is connected, the internal display remains dark during the boot procedure until Windows becomes active,
regardless of its Windows setting. Only after the boot procedure both displays
show the same content in parallel if "Notebook + Digital Display" was selected
under Windows. Otherwise only the internal display becomes active under Windows.

Internal Display Not Activated
The graphics driver of the FMR7 and FMR9 computer modules in the R&S
UPV saves the screen configuration that was last selected and detects
whether an external monitor is connected.
If the R&S UPV was previously operated only with an external monitor and
was switched off in that state, the internal display will remain deactivated
the next time the R&S UPV is switched on and no external monitor is connected.
Since no external monitor is detected in this case when the instrument is
switched on, the monitor output remains deactivated even if a monitor is
connected later .
An external keyboard is required to reactivate the screen display:
You can switch to the external monitor by using the key combination CTRL
+ ALT + F1 on an external keyboard.
Before March 2008: You can switch on the internal display by using the
key combination CTRL + ALT + F4 on an external keyboard.
Since March 2008, the R&S UPV has been shipped with a new LCD that
can be switched on using the shortcut CTRL + ALT + F3.

2.8.2 Changing Screen Resolution of External Monitor under
Windows 7
The R&S UPV audio analyzer has a built‑in computer. Up to February 2007, the
instruments were supplied with a computer bearing the internal Rohde & Schwarz
designation FMR6, from March 2007 with FMR7, from March 2012 with FMR9
and from February 2015 with FMR11. Instruments with FMR6 do not support Windows 7. The procedure for setting the screen resolution when using an external
monitor is the same for the different computer models and is described below.
The default factory setting supports clone mode of the internal and, if connected,
external VGA screen and means that both screens show the same picture. In this
mode, the screen resolution cannot be changed and remains fixed at the resolution of the internal screen, i.e. 800 x 600 pixels. Instruments with FMR9 and
FMR11 support an external monitor with analog interface at the VGA port or with
digital interface at the DVI‑D port on the rear of the instrument. Switchover takes
place automatically.
Setting external monitor resolution to higher than 800 x 600 pixels

Hardware options These are installed in the R&S UPV audio analyzer, can be retro-
fitted only by a Rohde & Schwarz service facility. "Exception: The
plug-in cards for the R&S UPV-B41, -B42 and -B48 options can
also be installed by the user by following the information listed in
the installation instruction since they do not require that the base
unit be opened."
2.10 Connect R&S UPV to a Network (LAN)
The R&S UPV has a network connector and can be connected to a LAN (Local
Area Network).
Network administrators with the appropriate rights can transfer files across the
network and use network resources such as the network directories or printers.
The instrument can also be remote-controlled and manually operated in the network.
The manual remote allows operating the R&S UPV from any remote external
computer. For example, the user can operate one or several R&S UPVs from his
workplace that are integrated inn a test setup in another part of the building.
The R&S UPV is shipped with activated Windows firewall. File transfer via LAN or
manual remote operation using the remote desktop requires only a partial exception in the firewall. It is advisable to coordinate the configuration of the firewall
with the network administrator.
The remote control of the instrument via the LAN interface is described in the
operating manual on the documentation CD.

Startup
2.10.1 Connection to the Network
Possible malfunction of the network operation
It is recommended that the connection of the instrument to the network be
coordinated with the network administrator. Connection errors may affect
the entire network.
Do not connect or disconnect the network cable until the instrument is
switched off (standby). Only then can the network connection be reliably
detected and impairments to instrument operation can be avoided.
The instrument is connected to the network using a commercially available RJ-45
cable connected to the LAN interface at the rear of the instrument. In order to
supress electromagnetic interference, it is recommended to use suitable shielded
CAT6 or CAT7 cables of high quality.
2.10.2 Configuration of R&S UPV for Network Operation
The network interface operates with 100-MHz Ethernet IEEE 802.3u. The TCP/IP
network protocol and the associated network services are preconfigured.
In order to exchange data in a local network (LAN), each connected computer or
instrument must have a unique IP address or a unique computer name. In addition, network access of the different users is organized by the assignment of
access rights.
The access rights determine which of the available network resources, e.g. file
storage systems, are available for the R&S UPV.
Networks with DHCP
The R&S UPV is preconfigured for networks using DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol). In these networks, the R&S UPV is automatically assigned an
unused IP address.
61Getting Started 1146.2078.62 ─ 10
R&S®UPV
Connect R&S UPV to a Network (LAN)
In this case, a unique computer name is used for identification in the network.
Every R&S UPV is assigned an individual computer name at the factory. This
name can be queried in the Windows menu "Start - My Computer" and changed
(see Chapter 2.10.2.3, "Querying the computer name", on page 66).
Networks with fixed IP addresses
In networks using fixed IP addresses, the addresses are mostly assigned by the
network administrator. The fixed IP address must be entered in the Windows
menu "Start - Control Panel" (see Chapter 2.10.2.2, "Entering the IP Address",
on page 63).
Point-to-point connections
To set up a simple network – a LAN connection between an R&S UPV and a
computer without integration in a larger network – an IP address must be
assigned for the R&S UPV and the computer. The IP addresses 192.168.xxx.yyy
are available, whereby both xxx and yyy can have the values 1 to 254; the value
for the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
Startup
In this case, a commercially available crossover RJ-45 cable must be used for the
connection. In order to supress electromagnetic interference, it is recommended
to use suitable shielded cables of high quality.
User ID
For the R&S UPV, the user instrument has been defined. The user is used for
the auto login when the instrument is started and for manual remote operation.
The password is also instrument. By assigning the respective rights, the network
administrator decides which directories and resources in the network can be
accessed by the R&S UPV.
2.10.2.1 Preparations
The instrument is configured for network operation in the menus of the Windows
operating system. The operating system can only be accessed if an external keyboard is connected; connection of a mouse is recommended for easy operation.
The instrument should be switched off before the keyboard and mouse are connected. This will ensure that the keyboard and mouse are correctly detected by
the operating system.

Access to network drives depends on access rights and whether the drives in
question have been enabled. The complete integration of R&S UPV in a larger
network with the required rights assignment is very complex and is generally performed by a network administrator.
Access from R&S UPV to the hard disk of a computer that is also connected to
the network can, however, be performed relatively easy. The directory which the
R&S UPV is to access simply has to be enabled on the remote computer. Access
from R&S UPV to this directory is done with the help of a Windows search function.
This procedure is also of importance for a point-to-point connection, for instance
in order to start a firmware update for which the files have been stored on the
hard disk of the remote computer.

2.10.3 Configuration via LXI
Be default, LXI is only available to the R&S UPV66, but it can also be installed on the R&S UPV at a later time, if required.
The LXI functionality for the R&S UPV66 requires at least the Windows XP
operating system with Service Pack 2 which may not yet be installed on
older computers. If this is the case, please contact your Rohde & Schwarz
subsidiary. The version of the operating system can be checked under
"Instrument Properties" in the "General" menu.
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. This standard
provides a new way for configuring virtual front panel instruments by using a network and a Web interface. The main tool for this configuration method is a
browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, but it is also possible to use other
browsers such as Firefox or Netscape.
2.10.3.1 LXI classes and LXI functionality
LXI-compliant instruments are divided into three classes, A, B and C, with the
functionality of the classes hierarchically based one upon the other:
●
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. LXI instruments of class C must also support
automatic detection in a LAN via the VXI-11 discovery protocol and programming by means of IVI drivers.
69Getting Started 1146.2078.62 ─ 10
R&S®UPV
Connect R&S UPV to a Network (LAN)
●
Class B adds IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and peer-to-peer
communication to the base class C. IEEE 1588 allows all instruments on the
same network to automatically synchronize to the most accurate clock available and then provide time stamps or time-based 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 UPV66 meets the general requirements of LXI Class C. In addition to
the properties described above, the instrument offers the following LXI-related
functions:
●
Integrated display of the current instrument settings
●
Possibility of remote controlling the instrument within the WEB browser.
Startup
2.10.3.2 LXI LAN Indicator
The green LAN LED on the front panel of the R&S UPV66 shows the LAN status
of the instrument. The LAN LED indicator has three states.
●

– The instrument does not have valid IP address. This may be due to one of
the following reasons:
1) the instrument is configured with DHCP, but no DHCP router is connected,
2) the instrument is manually configured and an IP address conflict is present,
3) the instrument lost its IP address that was configured with DHCP and
switched to Auto IP.
This state is called "error state" and normally can be resolved by the LCI
mechanism (LAN reset). This mechanism is required by the LXI standard
and can be invoked with the "LAN RESET" button (key press > 10 s) on

– The instrument is in the "Device Indicator" state initiated by the WEB inter-
face. This state is required by the standard and is used for finding instruments in racks (see Chapter 2.10.3.4, "LXI Browser Interface",
on page 71).
2.10.3.3 LXI Default State of Network Settings
After a LCI (LAN reset), the instrument automatically reboots and starts up with
following LAN settings:
Parameter Setting
Hostname RSUPV66vvv-xxxxxx
Description Audio Analyzer
TCP/IP Mode DHCP + Auto IP Address
Dynamic DNS Enabled
ICMP Ping Enabled
Negotiation Auto Detect
VXI-11 Discovery Enabled

More information about the LXI standard is located on the LXI website
under
http://www.lxistandard.org
or in the article about LXI in
"News from Rohde & Schwarz, 2006/II - 190".
2.10.3.4 LXI Browser Interface
The only information necessary for performing configuration via the LXI/Web
interface is the name of the instrument (which means its Windows name) in net-

works that operate with DHCP enabled, or its IP address in networks that operate
with manual network configuration. In rare cases where neither one of these
names is known, it is also possible to derive the IP address from the MAC
address, which is printed on the rear panel of the instrument.
The instrument's LXI browser interface works correctly with all W3C compliant
browsers.
To start the instrument home page (welcome page), open a browser on the PC
and enter the instrument name or the IP address of R&S UPV66 in the address
field, e.g.
http://RSUPV66-100014 or http://10.215.1.107.
The instrument name for the R&S UPV66 is always RSUPV66-xxxxxx, whereby
xxxxxx represents the six-digit serial number of the instrument.

Firmware Update
Startup
2.11 Firmware Update
The firmware update is described in the Release Notes.
2.11.1 Troubleshooting during a Firmware Update
The two most common problems that can occur when installing the software (or
during a major update) are these:
●
At the beginning, just before the progress bar starts, the progress window displays the text "InstallShield is preparing InstallScript". Occasionally you then
see an error message and installation is canceled.
This problem can usually be solved by restarting Windows and carrying out
the firmware installation again.
●
After the installer has installed the firmware, i.e., the progress bar is completely filled, the progress window displays the text "Removing Backup Files",
"Registering Components" or "Publishing Product Information". Here, too, it
occasionally happens that an error message is followed by a second message, and the firmware is subsequently not installed.
This problem can sometimes be solved by restarting Windows and carrying
out the setup again. If the error occurs again, this can be for two reasons:
– Installation of the front panel driver went wrong. In this case, it must be
installed using the Windows wizard; the required INI file is named
C:\UPV\fpnl_wdm.inf. You should now reinstall the firmware.
– The installation of additional Windows settings went wrong. In this case,
execute the files C:\UPV\ScanFirmwareVersions.exe and
C:\UPV\SetReg.exe in succession. You should now reinstall the firmware.
If neither of these steps is successful, the instrument needs to go in for service (or the Windows image program must be reloaded).

2.12 Windows XP Recovery and Backup
The R&S UPV provides an invisible backup and recovery partition. A backup of
the factory system partition (C:\) is saved by default and can be restored in
case of a system crash.
In addition, backups of up to 5 firmware versions can be stored on this partition. It
is e.g. possible to backup the current system partition prior to a firmware update
or to provide different system configurations for different environments.
For the R&S UPV, the use of an external keyboard is recommended.
The operation is described with respect to an external keyboard. It is recommended to connect a mouse that allows an intuitive operation!
During restore, the system partition (C:\) is deleted, formatted and rewritten.
The data partition (D:\) is not affected by this.
