2. Lift the R&S

 

SMCV100B to shelf height.

3. Push the R&S

 

SMCV100B onto the shelf until the rack brackets fit closely to

the rack.

4. Tighten all screws at the rack brackets with a tightening torque of 1.2

 

Nm to

secure the R&S

 

SMCV100B at the rack.

To unmount the R&S

 

SMCV100B from a rack

1. Loosen the screws at the rack brackets.

2. Bring the lifting equipment to shelf height.

3. Remove the R&S

 

SMCV100B from the rack.

4. If placing the R&S

 

SMCV100B on a bench top again, unmount the adapter kit

from the R&S

 

SMCV100B. Follow the instructions provided with the adapter

kit.

Important Aspects for Test Setup

Cable selection and electromagnetic interference (EMI)

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can affect the measurement results.

To suppress electromagnetic radiation during operation:

Use high-quality shielded cables, especially for the following connector types:
– BNC

Double-shielded BNC cables.

– USB

Double-shielded USB cables.
How to: 

Chapter 4.9, "Connecting USB Devices"

on page 21.

See also chapter "Troubleshooting and Error Messages" in the user man-
ual.

– LAN

At least CAT6 STP cables.
How to: 

Chapter 4.7, "Connecting to LAN"

on page 19

Always terminate open cable ends.

Ensure that connected external devices comply with EMC regulations.
