Risk of losing data
If you switch off the running instrument using the rear panel switch or by disconnecting
the power cord, the instrument loses its current settings. Furthermore, program data
may be lost.
Press the ON/STANDBY key first to shut down the application properly.
1. Press the ON/STANDBY key to save the current setup, shut down the operating
system and set the instrument to standby state.
The yellow LED must be on.
2. To turn the power off:
a) For instruments with power switch, press the main power switch to position 0
(Off).
b) For instruments without power switch, pull the power cable at the rear of the
instrument.
Tip:
Switching off the AC power
You can leave the AC power on permanently to preserve your last instrument set-
tings. Switching off is required only if the instrument must be completely disconnec-
ted from all power supplies.
None of the front-panel LEDs should be on.
2.4 Connecting External Accessories
The equivalent USB ports on the front and/or rear panel of the R&S SMJ can be used
to connect a variety of accessories.
In addition the instrument provides interfaces for monitor connection and network inte-
gration (see
Chapter 2.4.2, "Connecting a Monitor" , on page 41 and Chapter 2.6.1,
"Connecting the Instrument to the Network" , on page 44).
2.4.1 Connecting USB Devices
The USB interfaces of the R&S SMJ allow you to connect USB devices directly to the
instrument. This number can be increased as necessary by using USB hubs. Due to
the large number of available USB devices, there is almost no limit to the expansions
that are possible with the R&S
SMJ.
The following list shows various USB devices that can be useful:
●
Memory stick for easy transfer of data to/from a computer (e.g. firmware updates)
●
CD-ROM drives for easy installation of firmware applications
●
Keyboard or mouse to simplify the entry of data, comments, file names, etc.
