Safety Electrical hazards (DC supply voltage) This equipment conforms with IEC safety Class III, meaning that for continued safety it must only be connected to supplies and signal sources which conform to ‘Separated Extra-Low Voltage’ (SELV and SELV-E) voltage and insulation requirements. No hazardous voltages are generated internally. See the data sheet for the maximum permitted voltage levels that can be applied.
Safety Hot surfaces Take care when touching a module which has run for a prolonged period; the surface temperature can become high. Static-sensitive components This equipment contains static-sensitive components which may be damaged by handling. viii...
Surfaces chaudes Utilisation Cet équipement a été conçu et fabriqué par Cobham pour générer des signaux RF de faible puissance pour le test d'appareils de radio communications et numériser et analyser le spectre de signaux RF. La protection de l'équipement peut être altérée s'il n'est pas utilisé dans les conditions spécifiées par Cobham, ou il est endommagé.

Safety Sécurité électrique (tension d’alimentation continue) Cet équipement est conforme aux normes de sécurité CEI Classe III, c’est-à-dire qu’il ne doit être connecté qu’à des sources d’alimentation ou de signaux qui suivent les recommandations de tension et d’isolement du type ‘Tension extra-faible séparée’ (SELV at SELV-E). Aucune tension dangereuse n’est générée en interne.
Safety Le module doit glisser en douceur et facilement dans la fente.

Safety Elektrische Schläge (Gleichspannungsversorgung) Dieses Gerät entspricht der IEC Sicherheitsklasse III. Aus Sicherheitsgründen darf es nur an Netzgeräte und Signalquellen angeschlossen werden, die in Spannung und Isolation der SELV und SELV-E Richtlinie genügen (“Getrennte Niederspannung”). Im Gerät werden keine gefährlichen Spannungen erzeugt.

RF. Se lo strumento non è utilizzato nel modo specificato da Cobham, o è danneggiato, le protezioni previste sullo strumento potrebbero risultare inefficaci. Cobham non ha il controllo sull’uso di questo strumento e non può essere ritenuta responsabile per eventi risultanti da un uso diverso dallo scopo prefisso.
Safety Pericoli da elettricità (alimentazione a c.c.) Questo strumento rispetta le norme IEC, classe III, e quindi, per una completa sicurezza, deve essere collegato solo ad alimentatori e generatori di segnali che rispettano I requisiti di tensione ed isolamento SELV e SELV-E (Separated Extra-Low Voltage). Nessuna tensione pericolosa è generata al suo interno.
Safety Superfici ad alta temperatura Fare attenzione nel toccare un modulo che ha funzionato per un periodo prolungato; la temperatura in superficie può diventare molto elevata. xvii...
Superficies a altas termperaturas Idoneidad de uso Este equipo ha sido diseñado y fabricado por Cobham para generar señales de VHF y UHF de bajo nivel de potencia para prueba de equipos de radiocomunicaciones y para digitalizar y realizar análisis espectral de señales RF.
Safety Nivel peligroso de electricidad (tensión de alimentación DC) Este equipo cumple con la norma de seguridad IEC clase III, lo que significa que para total seguridad debe ser conectado a alimentaciones y fuentes de señal que cumplan los requerimientos de tensión y aislamiento “Tensión Separada Extra-Baja”...
Safety Superficies a altas temperaturas Tenga cuidado al tocar un módulo que ha funcionado por un período prolongado; la temperatura superficial puede llegar a ser alta.
Introduction AXRF RF Subsystem The AXRF RF Subsystem hardware consists of several PXI cards that are housed in a Cobham chassis. 18-slot PXI chassis (AXRF Option 03) AutoCal Unit The AXRF-ACAL8 AutoCal Unit is available in two configurations: as an enclosed benchtop box, powered by an external +48 VDC power adapter and during calibration, connected by cables to the AXRF RF Subsystem: or as a loadboard for use with, and powered by, an AXIe Series system.
Connecting to supply AXRF RF Subsystem The AXRF RF Subsystem is a Safety Class I product and therefore must be earthed. Use the supplied power cord or an appropriate replacement. Make sure that the equipment is plugged into an outlet socket with a protective earth contact.

Do not replace a detachable power cord with an inadequately rated cord. Standby/on switch The switch on the front panel of the AXRF RF Subsystem is a standby switch only, and does not isolate the equipment from the supply. Remove the power cord from the socket outlet to isolate the equipment.
Installation AXRF RF Subsystem configuration and cabling A typical eight-channel AXRF RF Subsystem is shown in Figure 1. It consists of the following modules: • Four DRPM • One RFSM (Option 19) • One RFM • One RF digitizer (Option 9 (6 GHz)). Option 10 (13 GHz) may be used as an alternative.
If an embedded or remote PC is supplied by Cobham, all software is supplied pre-installed. Where the software is used for remote PC control and the PC is not supplied by Cobham, or if the PC is changed or the hard disk is corrupted, see the Installation Instructions in the AXRF RF Subsystem and AutoCal Unit User Manual.
The start-up splash screen is displayed: Figure 2 AXRF Start -up Control panel The AXRF Control Panel (Figure 3) provides a graphical user interface to the AXRF RF Subsystem. The underlying control is provided via the standard user-level API calls. Figure 3 AXRF Control Panel Refer to the AXRF RF Subsystem and AutoCal Unit User Manual for subsystem configuration, control, calibration and checking.
