R&S RT‑Z1M
●
Do not apply voltages higher than the maximum rated voltage, see the imprint on
the buffer amplifier.
●
When using the buffer amplifier in combination with a passive probe that can mea-
sure voltages higher than the maximum rated input voltage of the buffer amplifier
(e.g. R&S RT-ZP10): Observe the maximum rated voltage of the probe.
●
Never open the casing of the buffer amplifier. If any part of the measurement equip-
ment is damaged or broken, stop using it.
Product integrity
The R&S RT‑Z1M can withstand a moderate amount of physical and electrical stress.
To avoid damage, treat the buffer amplifier with care:
●
Do not exceed the specified voltage limits.
●
Connect the R&S RT‑Z1M only to an instrument with Rohde & Schwarz probe
interface. Never connect it to a usual BNC jack. Although the 7 mm coaxial con-
nector looks like a standard BNC connector, it is constructed differently and does
not fit to the standard BNC jack. The interface of the R&S RT‑Z1M can withstand a
higher frequency limit.
●
Prevent the buffer amplifier from receiving mechanical shock.
●
Do not spill liquids on the buffer amplifier.
●
Store the buffer amplifier in a shock-resistant case, e.g. in the foam-lined shipping
case.
