Risk of injury if feet are folded out
The feet can fold in if they are not folded out completely or if the instrument
is shifted. Collapsing feet can cause injury or damage the instrument.
●
Fold the feet completely in or out to ensure stability of the instrument.
Never shift the instrument when the feet are folded out.
●
When the feet are folded out, do not work under the instrument or place
anything underneath.
●
The feet can break if they are overloaded. The overall load on the fol-
ded-out feet must not exceed 500
N.
Rackmounting
The R&S
ESW 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 you mount several instruments in a rack, you need an efficient ventilation
concept to ensure that the instruments do not overheat. Insufficient airflow
for a longer period can disturb the operation and even cause damage.
4.1.4
Connecting the AC Power
In the standard version, the R&S
ESW is equipped with an AC power supply con-
nector. The R&S
ESW can be used with different AC power voltages and adapts
itself automatically to it. Refer to the datasheet for the requirements of voltage
and frequency. The AC power connector is located on the rear panel of the instru-
ment.
For details on the connector refer to
Chapter 5.2.2, "AC Power Connector and
Putting into Operation
