2.5 Operating the R&S UPZ from the R&S UPL
shows the operating panel displayed on the R&S UPL screen when an input
switcher and an output switcher are connected (otherwise, only the lines relating to the
recognized switcher type would appear).
Fig. 2-4 Channel setting via the R&S UPL
Two lines are available for each switcher type, i.e. one for busbar A, the other for
busbar B. If any line is selected (by setting the black bar to the desired line), numerical
entry of the channel can be performed by pressing the SELECT key and confirming the
selection with ENTER. If ENTER is pressed instead of the SELECT key, the channel
can be selected by simply actuating the rollkey on the front panel of the R&S UPL. The
channel number set by means of the rollkey is immediately active so that the channels
can be through-connected by just turning the rollkey. Pressing a cursor key or ENTER
terminates this entry mode.
It is not possible to set the same channel to busbar A and B. If an attempt is made to
do this, the R&S UPL skips the set channel.
Example: (see
Busbar B of the input switcher (address 0) is connected to input
4
and busbar A to
2
. If
4
is entered for busbar A, the direction is from bottom to top (towards higher numbers).
The R&S UPL thus changes the entry to
5
. If busbar A is to be connected to input
4
,
busbar B should be previously set to another channel.
If busbar A had previously been on No.
6
, the R&S UPL would have changed the entry
to
3
. This means that the activated channel of the other busbar is always skipped by
1
.
This skip function is also available when the instrument is operated by means of the
rollkey.
If a suitable setup is available, channel numbers from 0 to 128 are permissible. Either
all 15 switcher addresses are occupied or the suitable R&S UPZ address has to be set
at the coding switch for entering higher channel numbers.
