NSG 3060 EMC test system
WARNING - Lethal danger from high voltages and the
risk of radiating illegal electromagnetic interference.
This system must be used only for EMC test purposes
as specied in these operating instructions.
The NSG 3060 must be installed and used only by autho-
rized and trained EMC specialists.
Personnel tted with a heart pacemaker may not
operate the instrument and must not be in the vicinity
of the test setup while it is in operation.
When the system is used in conjunction with options,
accessories or other equipment the safety instructions
concerning those devices must also be observed.

1 EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS
This connection must not be confused with the Equip-
ment under Test (EUT) power input.
The following symbol draws your attention to a circumstance where non-
observation of the warning could lead to component damage or danger to the
operating personnel.
Example:
Never connect or disconnect the EUT while the test
system is performing a test.

NSG 3060 EMC test system
2.1 General description
The NSG 3060 test system enables cable-borne EMC (electromagnetic com-
patibility) immunity tests to be carried out on electrical equipment intended
for household, of ce, light industrial or commercial use. The test system is a
concept from Teseq AG for electromagnetic immunity testing purposes and
ful lls the requirements to accomplish CE marking.
It is an open system, built on a modular principle that communicates through a
serial and standardized bus system and has open interfaces available. Opera-
tion is performed by means of standardized operator interfaces.
As a result of its modularity and the use of industry standards for the interfaces,
operating elements and expansion functions, the most widely varied instrument
con gurations can be readily constructed from the basic building blocks. Single
function generators, customer-speci c combinations, multifunction generators
for comprehensive test routines to product standards, generic standards and
basic standards, as well as combinations with special coupling devices are all
easily con gurable.
A master controller in the NSG 3060 system architecture takes care of all the
“real-time” control functions and communicates with all the function modules
both within the instrument’s casing and external devices via an interbus link.
The system has a simple construction. All function units contain a slave control-
ler. All these units are connected together through their slave controllers and
networked with the central master controller via a  eld bus (Interbus). Informa-
tion concerning the special features and their adjustable parameters are stored
directly in the function modules. In addition to this bus system, the NSG 3060
system also has a further interface standard, Ethernet, with which the system
can be controlled via single PC, a computer network or even via the Internet.
