Connecting the R&S
HA-Z24E to a PC
Do not connect multiple R&S
HA-Z24E preamplifiers to the same PC at the
same time.
► Connect the USB connector of the R&S
HA-Z24E to the two USB ports of the
PC using the provided y-shaped USB cable. If you connect the R&S
HA-Z24E
to only one USB port, it does not work.
A green LED indicates the correct connection to the USB ports. If the LED is
not on, check the connection.
Via the USB connection, the PC provides power to the R&S
HA-Z24E, and
transfers data from the preamplifier to the PC.
As soon as you connect the R&S
HA-Z24E to a power supply, the preamplifier
is permanently on. It is ready to use after its warmup time, see the data sheet
for details.
