*The cable to synchronize R&S
TSME30DC and the master R&S
TSME6 exists
as separate cable and as essential part of the cable bundle to synchronize to
master R&S
TSME6 with the additional R&S
TSME6 devices.
The R&S
TSMExxDC supports up to 5 scanners.
Only R&S TSME6 and R&S TSMA6/6B devices are supported.
IF 1 is the only IF output supporting the bypass (frequencies < 6 GHz). The IF 1
must be connected always with the master R&S TSMx6. IF 2 to 5 are only used
to enhance the measurement bandwidth and cannot operate independent from IF
1.
To synchronize the R&S
TSMExxDC with the master R&S
TSME6, the AUX con-
nectors of the devices are connected via an AUX cable. If more than one
R&S
TSME6 is used, the synchronization is done between the master
R&S
TSME6 and the additional R&S
TSME6 devices and between the master
R&S
TSME6 and the R&S
TSMExxDC. Therefore a specific cable is required.
The AUX connector and the IF 1 connector of the R&S
TSMExxDC are
marked with a blue circle. Both connectors must be connected with the mas-
ter R&S
TSME6.
The use of the black sync cable is not supported as it does not provide con-
trol to the downconverter.
The configuration of the R&S
TSMExxDC is done via the connected R&S
TSME6 / R&S TSMA6 with the "TsmeDeviceManager" software.

In this tab, you can configure the IF output receiver and the RF input antenna of
the R&S
TSMExxDC.
