4.2.1
Requirements for Repeatable Measurements
The ambient conditions listed below are recommended for the installation site of a Test
System Versatile Platform with R&S TS-PWA3:
●
Temperature variance within 24 hours not to exceed approx. 3 °C.
●
Maximum temperature variance within one hour not to exceed approx. 0.5 °C.
●
Extreme vibrations from mechanical or dynamic sources such as presses, power
punches etc. must be avoided.
●
The TSVP should be warmed up for approx. 15 minutes before measurements
commence. This time will depend on the type of measuring modules and can be
longer.
Compliance with these guidelines will ensure accurate and repeatable measure-
ments.
4.2.2
Rack Mounting
The rack mounting kit supplied by ROHDE & SCHWARZ must be used for rack mount-
ing the TSVP.
A minimum clearance of half a height unit should be allowed above and below the R&S
TS-PWA3!
This space can be used to fit filter mats.
The TSVP is installed in six steps:
1. Unscrew the four case feet from the base.
2. Screw the "19 inch brackets" contained in the rack mounting kit under the side han-
dles, replacing the old screws with the longer screws.
3. Remove the four rubber tips from the unit's feet.
