Preparation for Use Insert the BNC plug of the Passive Voltage Probe R&S ESH2-Z3 into the RF input socket of the test instrument. When using the an R&S Test Receiver, use the transducer table to enter the values of the voltage division factor and activate the transducer factor.
2 Measurement Determining the Interference Source Impedance Zs Generally, interference sources have low impedance so that measurements using the R&S ESH2-Z3 produce correct results. Though, the levels measured with an undefined source impedance may be incorrect. In order to determine the impedance Zs of the interference source, first measure the level without and then with attenuator 6 at a test frequency complying with CISPR Publication 16-2-1, Section 2.4.6.2 (see Fig.
