Optional Front Panel Connectors - R&S ESR Series User Manual

R&S ESR
With option R&S ESR-B29, the minimum frequency is extended to 10 Hz at both RF
inputs.
Risk of instrument damage
Do not overload the input. For maximum allowed values, see the data sheet.
For AC-coupling, a DC input voltage of 50 V must never be exceeded. For DC-cou-
pling, DC voltage must not be applied at the input. In both cases, noncompliance will
destroy the input mixers.
When measuring unknown signals, do not use a 0 dB attenuation level. Otherwise, the
input mixer may be damaged or destroyed.
PROBE POWER
The R&S ESR provides two connectors to supply accessories like transducers or
probes with power.
The probe power connector on the left supports supply voltages of ±10 V and ground.
The maximum permissible current is 200 mA. This probe power connector is suitable,
for example, for transducers from Rohde & Schwarz.
The probe power connector on the right supports supply voltages from +15 V to
-12.6 V and ground. The maximum permissible current is 150 mA. This probe power
connector is suitable, for example, for high-impedance probes from Agilent.
AF OUTPUT
Headphones equipped with a miniature jack plug can be connected to the AF output
female connector. The internal impedance is 10 Ω. The output voltage can be set by
using the volume control to the right of the female connector. If a plug is connected, the
internal loudspeaker is automatically switched off.
Risk of hearing damage
Before putting on the headphones, make sure that the volume setting is not too high to
protect your hearing.
