3. Carefully unthread the corrugated cardboard cover at the front that protects the
instrument handles and remove it.
4. Check the equipment for completeness using the delivery note and the accessory
lists for the various items.
5. Check the instrument for any damage. If there is damage, immediately contact the
carrier who delivered the instrument. Make sure not to discard the box and packing
material.
Packing material
Retain the original packing material. If the instrument needs to be transported or shipped
at a later date, you can use the material to protect the control elements and connectors.
2.1.2 Positioning the Instrument
The R&S CMW500 is designed for use under laboratory conditions. It can be used in
standalone operation on a bench top or can be installed in a rack.
The general ambient conditions required at the operating site are as follows:
●
The temperature must be in the ranges specified for operation and for compliance
with specifications (see data sheet).
●
All fan openings including the rear panel perforations must be unobstructed. The
distance between the walls and the left and right side and the rear panel of the instru-
ment should be at least 10 cm. When placing several instruments side by side, keep
a minimum distance of 20 cm and ensure that the instrument(s) on the left do not
draw in the preheated air from their neighbors on the right.
●
Operation in a standard 19'' instrument rack according to the instructions of the man-
ufacturer avoids overheating; see chapter 2.1.2.2, "Rackmounting", on page 13.
2.1.2.1 Standalone Operation
For standalone operation, place the instrument on a horizontal bench with even, flat sur-
face. The instrument can be used in horizontal or vertical position, standing on its feet,
or with the support feet on the bottom expanded.
