5 Instrument Functions
The following chapter describes the instrument functions of the R&S OSP. The basic
instrument R&S OSP is the Platform for Switching and Control Purpose which is
completed by several options. The function of the instrument depends on the options
(R&S OSP modules) which are fitted in the instrument.
As an overview and for better understanding of the instrument function and the
configuration possibilities, the following chapter shows block diagrams of the
R&S OSP.
Then there is a description of the available modules for the R&S OSP and their
function.
Basic instrument functions like selftest and configuration information are described as
well.
5.1 R&S OSP Instrument Frame
The R&S OSP is designed as a 19" unit with two height units. The instruments
R&S OSP120 and R&S OSP130 can remotely be controlled via LAN interface.
The R&S OSP120 contains no front elements for manual operation and is therefore
only to be used in remote operation.
The R&S OSP130 can operate as a stand-alone instrument thus not requiring remote
control. Front panel keys and a display allow local operation. It may also be integrated
in remotely controlled systems.
The R&S OSP150 is an extension of the OSP120 or OSP130 allowing more modules
to be used. It is connected via CAN bus connected to the rear side of the R&S OSP.
The R&S OSP unit has no switching functions as long as no R&S OSP modules are
installed.
Depending on the model, the R&S OSP frame unit can consist of the following blocks:

Switching functions are added to the R&S OSP frame unit by installation of R&S OSP
modules. The R&S OSP offers three slots for installation of R&S OSP modules. The
modules are installed from the rear side of the instrument. A maximum of three
R&S OSP modules can be configured.
