●

The environmental temperature exceeds the suitable temperature range given in
the data sheet under environmental conditions.

●

The fan does not work properly. See

Chapter 15.5, "Contacting Customer Support"

on page 488.

1009 - fan failure alert

The fan does not work. Overheating can damage the R&S NRX.

Solution: Switch off the R&S NRX, and contact customer support. See

Chapter 15.5,

"Contacting Customer Support"

on page 488.

15.2.1.2

Power Sensor Errors

Number range of error codes: 2000 to 2999.

The power sensors report their error states to the R&S NRX. The error states depend
on the power sensor type. Described errors:

2001 - sensor maximum allowed count

.......................................................................485

2003 - sensor settings conflict

.....................................................................................485

2005 - sensor underrange

...........................................................................................485

2006 - sensor overrange

............................................................................................. 486

2007 - sensor overload

............................................................................................... 486

2008 - sensor protocol minor mismatch

...................................................................... 486

2009 - sensor protocol major mismatch

...................................................................... 486

2001 - sensor maximum allowed count

The maximum number of power sensors that you can use simultaneously is reached.

Solution: Install the second measurement channel (R&S NRX-K2) or the 3rd and 4th
measurement channel (R&S NRX-K4). See also

Chapter 5.1, "Parallel Measure-

ments"

on page 43.

2003 - sensor settings conflict

The current settings of the R&S NRX do not comply with the operating range of the
connected power sensor.

Solution: Change the settings of the R&S NRX or use another power sensor that is
suitable for the selected settings.

2005 - sensor underrange

Possible reasons:

●

The detected signal is below the minimum value that the power sensor can cor-
rectly measure.

●

The current settings of the R&S NRX undercut the specified operating range of the
connected power sensor.

Solution: Change the settings of the R&S NRX or use another power sensor that is
suitable for the selected settings.
