Risk of losing data
If you switch off the running instrument using the rear panel switch or by disconnecting
the power cord, the instrument loses its current settings. Furthermore, program data
may be lost.
Press the POWER key first to shut down the application properly.
2.3.4 EMI Suppression
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) may affect the measurement results.
To suppress generated Electromagnetic Interference:
●
Use suitable shielded cables of high quality. For example use double-shielded RF
and LAN cables.
●
Always terminate open cable ends.
●
Note the EMC classification in the data sheet.
2.4 Connecting External Devices
The following interfaces for external devices are provided:
●
USB connectors, see also "USB" on page 31
●
Monitor connector, see also "MONITOR (DVI-D)" on page 33
2.4.1 Connecting USB Devices
The USB interfaces on the front and rear panels of the R&S RTO allow you to connect
USB devices directly to the instrument. This number can be increased as necessary by
using USB hubs. Due to the large number of available USB devices, there is almost no
limit to the expansions that are possible with the R&S RTO.
The following list shows various USB devices that can be useful:
●
Flash drive for easy transfer of data to/from a computer (e.g. firmware updates)
●
CD-ROM drives for easy installation of firmware applications
●
Keyboard and/or to simplify the operation and the entry of data, comments, file
names, etc.
●
Printer for printing out measurement results
All USB devices can be connected to or disconnected from the instrument during oper-
ation.
Installing USB devices on R&S RTO is easy under the Windows operating system,
because all USB devices are plug&play. After a device is connected to the USB inter-
face, Windows automatically searches for a suitable device driver.
