Incorrectly connecting/disconnecting the R&S NRP power sensors can damage the
power sensors or lead to erroneous results.
Ensure that you connect/disconnect your power sensor as described in
1. Connect the cables as shown in
a) Connect the R&S NRP
‑
ZK6 cable to the power sensor.
b) Connect the power sensors to the R&S NRP
‑
Z5 sensor hub. You can connect
up to four sensors.
c) Connect the R&S NRP
‑
Z5 to the computer.
d) Connect the power sensors to the signal source.
e) Connect the delivered external power supply unit to the R&S NRP
‑
Z5 and to an
AC supply connector.
f) Connect the trigger input of the R&S NRP
‑
Z5 with a BNC cable to the trigger
source (optional).
g) Connect the trigger output of the R&S NRP
‑
Z5 with a BNC cable to the trigger
device (optional).
2. On the computer, start a software application to view the measurement results.

Setting Up a LAN Connection
Requires power sensors with networking capabilities, the R&S
NRP LAN power sen-
sors.
This section describes how to connect the sensor to a LAN network and configure the
LAN interface for establishing a connection.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can affect the measurement results. To avoid any
impact, use category 5 cables or better.
