The main power switch works as follows.
●
Position "O": The instrument is disconnected from the AC power supply.
●
Position "1": The instrument is supplied with power and in operation.

Chapter 3.2.1.7, "Switching the Instrument On and Off"
Warm-up time for OCXO
When the instrument is switched on, the OCXO requires an extended warm-up time
(see data sheet).
LAN
The LAN interface can be used to connect the R&S
ESRP to a local network for
remote control, printouts and data transfer. The assignment of the RJ-45 connector
supports twisted-pair category 5 UTP/STP cables in a star configuration (UTP stands
for
unshielded twisted pair
, and STP for
shielded twisted pair
).
MONITOR (VGA)
The female VGA connector is used to connect an external monitor. Instructions on how
to connect an external monitor are provided in
Chapter 3.2.3, "Connecting an External
EXT TRIGGER / GATE IN
The female connector for external trigger/gate input is used to control the measure-
ment by means of an external signal. The voltage levels can range from 0.5 to 3.5
V.
The default value is 1.4
V. The typical input impedance is 10
kΩ.
REF IN
As a reference signal, you can either use the internal reference, or connect an external
one. The setup menu is used to switch between the internal and an external reference.
The REF IN female connector is used as an input for a 1-20
MHz reference signal. The
required input level is 0-10
dBm.
REF OUT
This connector can be used to provide an external reference signal (e.g. the OCXO) to
other devices that are connected to this instrument. The REF OUT female connector
can output a 10
MHz reference signal with an output level of 0
dBm.
GPIB Interface
The GPIB interface is in compliance with IEEE488 and SCPI. A computer for remote
control can be connected via this interface. To set up the connection, a shielded cable
is recommended.
For more information refer to the User Manual, chapter 7 "Remote Control Basics".
