Rackmounting
The R&S
SMBV can be installed in a rack using a rack adapter kit (Order No. see data
sheet). The installation instructions are part of the adapter kit.
Risk of instrument damage due to insufficient airflow in a rack
If the instrument is run with insufficient airflow for a longer period, the instrument over-
heats, which can disturb the operation and even cause damage.
Make sure that all fan openings are unobstructed, that the airflow perforations are
unimpeded, and that the minimum distance from the wall is 10
cm.
2.3.4 Connecting the Instrument to the AC Supply
The R&S
SMBV is automatically adapted to the AC voltage supplied. There is no need
to set the voltage manually or change fuses. The
is at the rear of the unit.
► Connect the instrument to the AC power source using the AC power cable deliv-
ered with the instrument.
Note:
The instrument is in compliance with safety class EN61010-1.
Connect the instrument only to a socket with earthing contact.
2.3.5 Starting the Instrument
The R&S
SMBV comes with or without a power switch, depending on the design of the
otherwise technically equivalent power supply unit.
Switching off the AC power
You can leave the AC power on permanently to preserve your last instrument settings.
Switching off is required only if the instrument must be completely disconnected from
all power supplies.
Starting up instruments with power switch
1.

2. To turn the power on, press the main power switch to position I (On).
After power-up, the instrument is in
of the ON/STANDBY key at the front panel of the instrument when the instrument
was switched off for the last time.
3. In case the instrument is in standby mode, i.e. the yellow LED is on, press the ON/
STANDBY key to switch the instrument to ready state.
