R&S FSH with VSWR Bridge
R&S FSH-Z2
!
Connect the control cable of the R&S FSH-Z2 or R&S FSH-Z3 to the power sensor connector of the
R&S FSH.
!
Connect the RF and generator port of the R&S FSH-Z2/R&S FSH-Z3 to the RF input and generator
output of the R&S FSH.
!
Connect the 1 m test cable supplied with option R&S FSH-B1 to the bridge test port.
Note:
The 1 m cable must be used. Results are invalid without this cable.
!
Press the MEAS key.
!
Press the MEASURE softkey.
!
Using the cursor keys or rotary knob, select DISTANCE TO FAULT from the menu and confirm with
the ENTER key or the MEAS softkey.
The R&S FSH switches on the distance-to-fault measurement function.
The R&S FSH delivers optimum results if the center frequency is set to the frequency at which the
device under test is operated.
!
Press the FREQ key.
!
Input the center frequency, e.g. frequency of the antenna at the end of the cable under test.
