3 Connecting Up and Starting to Use the Device
30 SRM-3006 Narda
3.3.3 Operation from AC adapter / charger
The SRM-3006 can also be operated and powered from the AC adapter /
charger.
However, this is not recommended for general use, as the measurement
characteristics can be significantly affected by the presence of the power
supply cable in the electromagnetic field when the SRM-3006 is operated
with the AC adapter / charger connected to it.
3.4 Fitting the antenna
This section describes the facilities and requirements for connecting an
antenna to the SRM-3006.
3.4.1 Fitting a Narda antenna directly on the
Basic Unit
✓ The SRM-3006 is switched off.
1. Stand the Basic Unit up in a vertical position.
2. Place the N connector of the antenna on to the N connector of the Basic
Unit.
3. Screw the coupling nut of the antenna N connector slowly on to the Basic
Unit N connector taking care not to cross-thread it.
Note: If the coupling nut does not turn easily, reposition it and start again.
Approximately 4 full turns are needed to fully tighten the connection.
4. Place the control cable plug of the cable on to the multipin connector on
the Basic Unit so that the red mark on the control cable plug is aligned
with the notch in the multipin connector.
5. Push the control cable plug into the connector using the locking sleeve
until the plug lock engages.
ª The Narda antenna is connected.
The device automatically recognizes the antenna type that is connected.
This information is shown in the display in the general device configuration
section while the device is switched on.
