8 Maintenance
The following chapter contains information on the maintenance of the R&S FSL. The instrument does
not need a periodic maintenance. What is necessary is essentially the cleaning of the instrument.
However, it is recommended to check the rated data from time to time.
Follow the instructions in the service manual and the safety instructions when exchanging modules or
ordering spares. The order no. for spare parts is included in the service manual. The service manual
includes further information particularly on troubleshooting, repair, exchange of modules (including
battery exchange, adjustment of the OCXO oscillator) and alignment.
The address of our support center and a list of all Rohde & Schwarz service centers can be found at the
beginning of this manual.
Storing and Packing
The storage temperature range of the instrument is given in the data sheet. If the instrument is to be
stored for a longer period of time, it must be protected against dust.
Repack the instrument as it was originally packed when transporting or shipping. The two protective
foam plastic parts prevent the control elements and connectors from being damaged. The antistatic
packing foil avoids any undesired electrostatic charging to occur.
If you do not use the original packaging, provide for sufficient padding to prevent the instrument from
slipping inside the package. Wrap antistatic packing foil around the instrument to protect it from
electrostatic charging.
