The mains connector is located in the lefthand part of the rear panel; see also chap-
ter 2.3.7, "Power on and off" , on page 18.
2.2.2 USB FROM NWA
The type B USB connector (slave USB) is used to control the extension unit from an R&S
ZVA24 vector network analyzer. Connect the USB FROM NWA connector to any of the
type A USB connectors at the front or rear panel of the analyzer.
A USB control connection is a prerequisite for accessing the ZVAX Path Configuration

With an established connection to USB FROM NWA, the type A USB connectors of the
extension unit are functionally equivalent to those of the NWA.

The length of the connecting USB cable should not exceed 1 m. It is recommended to
