2.5 Putting the Instrument into Operation

This section describes the basic steps to be taken when setting up the R&S OSP for
the first time.
Instrument setup
Before turning on the instrument, please make sure that the following conditions are
fulfilled:
Instrument covers are in place and all fasteners are tightened.
Fan openings are unobstructed.
Signal levels at the input connectors are all within the specified ranges.
Signal outputs are correctly connected and not overloaded.
The instrument is dry and shows no condensation.
Non-observance may cause damage to the instrument or other devices in the test
setup.

2.5.1 Unpacking the Instrument and Checking the Shipment

Remove the instrument from its packaging and check the equipment for completeness
using the delivery note and the accessory lists for the various items.
First, pull off the polyethylene protection pads from the instrument's rear feet and then
carefully remove the pads from the instrument handles at the front.
Pull off the corrugated cardboard cover that protects the rear of the instrument.
Carefully unthread the corrugated cardboard cover at the front that protects the
instrument handles and remove it.
Check the instrument for any damage. If there is damage, immediately contact the
carrier who delivered the instrument. In this case, make sure not to discard the box
and packing material.
It is advisable to keep the original packing material in order to prevent control elements
and connectors from being damaged in case the instrument is to be transported or
shipped at a later date.
