Section 1
INTRODUCTION
1-1 SCOPE OF MANUAL
This manual contains information for using the
R2600 Series Communications System Analyzers.
These Analyzers incorporate many devices and
functions, permitting a technician to completely
monitor and service radio communications
equipment in the shop and in the field.
1-2 SAFETY SUMMARY
The following general safety precautions must be
observed during all phases of operation, service
and repair of this equipment. Failure to comply
with these precautions or warnings violates safety
standards of design, manufacture, and intended
use of the equipment. General Dynamics.
assumes no liability for the customer's failure to
comply with these requirements.
The safety precautions and warnings listed below
represent warnings of certain dangers of which
General Dynamics is aware. You as the user of
the product, should follow these warnings and all
other safety precautions necessary for the safe
operation of the equipment in your operating
environment.
1-2.1 Grounding the Analyzer
To minimize shock hazard, the Analyzer
enclosure must be connected to an electrical
ground. This ground connection is provided via a
three wire AC power cable. The power cable
must be plugged into an approved three-contact
electrical outlet. If the unit is not properly
grounded while operating from an AC power
source, the voltage potential between it and
ground may cause an electrical shock.
1-2.2 Unit is Live When Plugged In
Internal circuits are live when the power cable is
plugged in, although the front panel switch is in
the STANDBY position. The input power plug is
the disconnect device.
1-2.3 Keep Away From Live Circuits
Operating personnel must not remove equipment
covers. Only Factory Authorized Service
Personnel or other qualified maintenance
personnel may remove equipment covers for
internal subassembly or component replacement
or any internal adjustment. Disconnect Analyzer
from all voltage sources before removing covers
for adjustments, maintenance or repairs.
Capacitors inside may still be charged even if the
Analyzer is disconnected from the voltage
source.

Kapitel 1
EINFÜHRUNG
1-1 VERWENDUNGSZWECK
Dieses Handbuch enthält Informationen über den
Umgang mit den Funkmeßplätzen der Serie
R2600. Diese Geräte enthalten eine Vielzahl von
Bausteinen und Funktionen, mit deren Hilfe der
Techniker Kommunikationsgeräte sowohl in der
Werkstatt als auch vor Ort vollständig überprüfen
und warten kann.
1-2 SICHERHEITSHINWEISE
Die nachfolgenden allgemeinen
Sicherheitshinweise sind während aller Phasen
der Bedienung, Wartung und Reparatur dieses
Gerätes zu befolgen. Die Nichtbeachtung dieser
Hinweise bzw. Warnungen stellt ein Verstoß
gegen die Sicherheitsstandards der Entwicklung,
Herstellung und des bestimmungsgemäßen
Gebrauchs des Gerätes dar. General Dynamics
lehnt jede Haftung für die Nichtbeachtung dieser
Vorschriften seitens des Kunden ab.
Die nachstehenden Sicherheits- und
Gefahrenhinweise warnen vor bestimmten von
General Dynamics erkannten Gefahren. Sie als
der Benutzer des Produktes sollten diese
Warnhinweise und sonstige sicherheitstechnische
Vorsichtsmaßnahmen beachten, um einen
zuverlässigen Betrieb des Gerätes innerhalb einer
sicheren Betriebsumgebung zu gewährleisten.
1-2.1 Funkmeßplatz erden
Zur Verringerung der Gefahr eines elektrischen
Schlages muß das Gerät elektrisch geerdet
werden. Die Sicherheitserdung erfolgt über das
dreiadrige Netzkabel. Der Netzstecker muß dazu
in eine dreipolige Steckdose eines zugelassenen
Typs gesteckt werden. Wird das Gerät beim
Betrieb aus einer Wechselstromquelle nicht
vorschriftsmäßig geerdet, so kann die
Differenzspannung zwischen Gerät und Erde
einen elektrischen Schlag hervorrufen.
1-2.2 Das Gerät steht auch in ausgeschaltetem
Zustand unter Spannung
Die Schaltungen im Geräteinneren stehen bei
gestecktem Netzkabel immer unter Spannung,
auch wenn der Schalter auf der Frontplatte sich in
Stellung STANDBY befindet. Eine vollständige
Trennung vom Netz bewirkt nur das Ziehen des
Netzsteckers.
1-2.3 Vorsicht vor spannungsführenden
Teilen!
Das Betriebspersonal darf die Gehäuse-
Abdeckungen nicht öffnen. Nur vom Werk
autorisierte Techniker und sonstiges qualifiziertes
Personal dürfen die Geräte-Abdeckungen öffnen,
um Teile zusammenzubauen bzw. zu ersetzen
oder Einstellungen vorzunehmen. Vor dem
Öffnen, muß das Gerät von allen
Spannungsquellen getrennt werden, damit
Einstell-, Wartungs- und Reparaturarbeiten in
spannungslosem Zustand durchgeführt werden.
Kondensatoren im Gerät können auch nach der
Trennung des Gerätes von der Spannungsquelle
noch geladen sein.
2

1-2.4 Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the equipment in the presence of
flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any
electrical equipment in such an environment
constitutes a definite safety hazard.
1-3 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
You should observe several precautions when
handling this equipment.
WARNING
The Analyzer is designed to be operated
with a ground connection to the chassis via
a three-wire power connection. If the unit is
not properly grounded while operating from
an AC power source, the voltage potential
between it and ground may cause an electri-
cal shock.
CAUTION
This equipment contains parts that are
subject to damage by static electricity.
While there is normally no need for op-
erator access to any internal components,
take proper precautions in handling should
the need arise. Refer to Appendix C for safe
handling procedures.
1-3.1 Analyzer Operating Voltage
Before plugging in an AC power cable, verify
that the selector switch located on the underside
of the unit is set to the correct operating
voltage. If using a battery pack, the cover must
be removed and the internal voltage selector
switch set to the correct position.
1-3.2 DC Power Source
The DC power input is intended to be
connected to the Battery Pack accessory, or
from a vehicle battery. Connecting the
Analyzer DC input to a Power Supply can, in
the event of a power supply fault, cause
hazardous voltages to be present on the low
voltage circuits of the Analyzer.
1-3.3 Maximum DVM Input Voltages
To ensure the safety of the user, the voltages
being measured at the DVM input must be kept
below Hazardous Live limits. The maximum
input levels are: 30 V r.m.s and 42.4 V peak or
60 V d.c.
3

1-2.4 Betrieb in einer explosionsgefährdeten
Umgebung
Das Gerät darf in einer explosionsgefährdeten
Umgebung nicht betrieben werden. Brennbare
Gase oder Dämpfe in der Nähe des Gerätes
stellen ein großes Sicherheitsrisiko dar.
1-3 GEFAHRENHINWEISE
Beim Umgang mit dem Gerät sind folgende
Gefahrenhinweise zu beachten.
VORSICHT!
Beim Betrieb des Funkmeßplatzes muß das
Chassis über ein dreipoliges Netzkabel
geerdet sein. Wird das Gerät bei Speisung aus
einer Wechselstromquelle nicht
vorschriftsmäßig geerdet, so kann die
Differenzspannung zwischen Gerät und Erde
einen elektrischen Schlag hervorrufen.
ACHTUNG!
Dieses Gerät enthält Bauteile, die durch
statische Elektrizität beschädigt werden
können. Normalerweise ist ein Zugriff auf die
Bauteile im Inneren des Gerätes zwar nicht
erforderlich, jedoch sind im Bedarfsfall die
nötigen Vorsichtsmaßnahmen zu beachten.
Einzelheiten dazu gehen aus Anhang C
hervor.
1-3.1 Betriebsspannung
Vor dem Anschluß des Funkmeßplatzes an das
Netz ist sicherzustellen, daß am
Spannungswähler auf der Unterseite des Gerätes
die richtige Netzspannung eingestellt ist. Bei
Verwendung eines Akkusatzes muß die
Abdeckung abgenommen und der interne
Spannungswähler in die richtige Stellung
gebracht werden.
1-3.2 Betrieb mit Gleichspannung
Über den Eingang DC POWER läßt sich der
Funkmeßplatz mit Spannung aus dem als Option
erhältlichen Akkusatz oder auch aus einem Kfz-
Bordnetz speisen. Der Anschluß einer externen
Stromversorgung kann im Falle eines Fehlers in
dieser Stromversorgung dazu führen, daß die
Niederspannungsteile im Funkmeßplatz
gefährlich hohe Spannungen annehmen.
1-3.3 Maximale Eingangsspannung des
Digitalvoltmeters
Damit die Sicherheit des Benutzers gewährleistet
ist, dürfen die Spannungen am Eingang des
Digitalvoltmeters bestimmte Werte nicht
überschreiten. Die maximal zulässige Werte sind:
30 V eff. und 42,4 V Spitzenspannung oder 60 V
Gleichspannung.
