1 = External power supply unit
2 = Connect to AC power supply.
3 = Connect to computer with USB host interface.
4 = Optional: Connect to trigger source.
5 = Optional: Connect to triggered device.
6 = R&S NRP‑Z5 sensor hub
7 = Signal source (DUT)
8 = R&S NRPxxS(N) power sensor
9 = R&S NRP‑ZK6 cable
Set up as shown in Figure 3-2.
1. Connect the R&S NRP‑ZK6 cable to the power sensor. See "To connect a cable to
the host interface of the power sensor" on page 17.
2. Connect the power sensors to the R&S NRP‑Z5 sensor hub. You can connect up to
four sensors.
3. Connect the R&S NRP‑Z5 to the computer.
4.
NOTICE! Incorrectly connecting or disconnecting the power sensor can damage
the power sensor or lead to erroneous results. Ensure that you connect or discon-
nect the power sensor as described in Chapter 3.4, "Connecting to a DUT",
on page 15.
Connect the power sensors to the signal sources.
5. Connect the delivered external power supply unit to the R&S NRP‑Z5 and to an AC
supply connector.
6. Connect the trigger input of the R&S NRP‑Z5 with a BNC cable to the trigger
source (optional).
7. Connect the trigger output of the R&S NRP‑Z5 with a BNC cable to the trigger
device (optional).
8. On the computer, start a software application to view the measurement results.
See Chapter 5, "Operating concepts", on page 31.
3.7.2 Base unit
As a controlling host, you can use an R&S NRX base unit.
You can also operate the power sensor using other supported Rohde & Schwarz
instruments with a sensor connector. For details, see also the user manual of the
instrument.
► Establish the connection with the base unit using:
● Host interface, see Chapter 5.7, "R&S NRX", on page 39.
● LAN interface, if:
– Base unit is an R&S NRX
– Power sensor is a LAN power sensor
