Risk of instrument damage due to insecure power supply connection
If the connection between the instrument and the external DC power source is not pro-
tected against excessive current, a short-circuit can damage the instrument or power
supply unit.
When connecting the R&S
EVSG1000 to the power supply, ensure the following pre-
requisites are met:
●
Insert a 3 AT fuse
●
Use a 3-pin XLR connection cable
●
If the cable must be extended, ensure the entire cable has a cross-section of at
least 1.5
mm

Connect the R&S
EVSG1000 to an external DC power source as follows:
1. Connect the XLR connection cable to the "POWER" connector on the back of the
2. Connect the XLR connection cable to the DC power supply.
Risk of electric shock
Insufficient insulation and exceeding the current limitation of external power supplies
for safety extra-low DC voltage (SELV) can lead to electric shock.
Be sure to meet the requirements for reinforced/double insulation in accordance with
DIN/EN/IEC 61010 (UL 3111, CSA C22.2 No. 1010.1) orDIN/EN/IEC 60950 (UL 1950,
CSA C22.2 No. 950). Provide current limitation in accordance with DIN EN 61010-1
Appendix F2.1.

Using an Optional Battery Pack (R&S
EVSG-B3)
As an alternative to the fixed AC or DC power supply, the R&S
EVSG1000 can be
operated by a battery pack if the R&S
EVSG-B2 and R&S
EVSG-B3 options are instal-
led. If the battery pack is installed and no DC power is supplied, the R&S
EVSG1000
automatically switches to battery operation (during operation).
If the battery option was ordered together with the instrument, the R&S
EVSG1000
comes with the battery management and battery pack already installed.
