Considerations for test setup
Cable selection and electromagnetic interference (EMI)
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can affect the measurement results.
To suppress electromagnetic radiation during operation:
●
Use high-quality shielded cables, for example, double-shielded RF and LAN
cables.
●
Always terminate open cable ends.
●
Ensure that connected external devices comply with EMC regulations.
Signal input and output levels
Information on signal levels is provided in the data sheet. Keep the signal levels

ped with an internal battery and a DC power supply connector on the rear panel
of the instrument.
DC power can be supplied by one of the following sources:
●
The installed battery (R&S
EDST-B3)
●
The provided DC power supply unit connected to a 230
V AC power supply
(for indoor use only)
●
External DC power sources with a voltage of 24
VDC
±
5%, protected by a 5
A
fuse
(Requires R&S
EDST-B3)
Do not connect the instrument to available DC networks.
