Starting the R&S
SMBV100B requires that it is
► At the front panel, press the [On/Standby] key briefly.
The instrument boots the operating system and starts the instrument firmware.
After booting, the instrument is in the state before the last power off (standby or
ready), indicated by the color of the [On/Standby] key's LEDs:
● Green: the R&S
SMBV100B is running and ready for operation.
All modules are power-supplied.
● Orange: the R&S
SMBV100B is in standby mode (main AC power switch is in
position "I").
The standby power mode keeps the power switch circuits and the oven-control-
led crystal oscillator OCXO active. In this state, it is safe to switch off the AC
power and disconnect the instrument from the power supply.
To switch between standby and ready state, briefly press the [On/Standby] key.
If a previous session was terminated regularly, the instrument uses the last setup with
the relevant instrument settings.
► To set up a new configuration, press the [Preset] key to return the instrument to its
defined reset/preset state.
To customize the start settings, e.g. to recall previously saved settings:
●
Use the [Save/Rcl] function or
●
Define the [

Risk of losing data

1. Press the [On/Standby] key.
The current setup is saved, the operating system shuts down and sets the instru-
ment to standby state.
The [On/Standby] LED must be orange.
2. Turn off the main AC power switch at the rear panel of the R&S
SMBV100B (posi-
tion "0" (off)).
The instrument is no longer supplied with AC power.
