The R&S TSMA Base Unit boots as soon as the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack
Unit (including charged batteries) is connected with the R&S TSMA via the con-
nection cable (3).
4.4 Connecting the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack
Unit with External Power Supply
The connection of an external DC power supply offers the following possibilities:
●Operating the R&S TSMA Base Unit via the power supply
●Recharging the batteries in case the R&S TSMA Base Unit is switched off
In order to recharge the batteries of the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit without
a separate charger, connect the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit with an exter-
nal power supply.
The external recharging of the batteries is only allowed via the separate
charger (R&S TSMA-BC2, R&S No. 1523.8015.02).
The following steps must be performed.
1. Connect the R&S TSMA Base Unit (1) with the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack
Unit (2) using the connection cable (3).
Note: In this case, the R&S TSMA Base Unit will boot immediately.
2. Connect the DC OUT of the AC power supply (R&S TSMA-Z1, R&S
No. 1523.8450.02) with the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit (4) with the
adapter cable (5).
3. Connect the adapter cable (5) with the AC power supply (R&S TSMA-Z1).
In this case, the TSMA is supplied via the AC power supply and the batteries
will be recharged slowly. If the R&S TSMA is switched off, the batteries will be
recharged.

5 Operation
The R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit allows to enhance the R&S TSMA instru-
ment to a portable measurement solution based on a battery powered system.
The R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit contains two rechargeable batteries (not
included in the delivery), which can be charged directly in case the R&S TSMA-
BP Battery Pack Unit is connected to power (via cigarette lighter in a vehicle or an
external power supply). Alternatively, a separate battery charger (not included)
can be used for recharging the batteries.
In the standard operation mode, it is recommended to use always two bat-
teries with a comparable charging state. (The batteries will be discharged
always in parallel.)
The charging state of the battery is visible on the display (1).
Figure 5-1: R&S TSMA-BAT (R&S No. 1523.8021.03)
1 = Charging state display
The batteries can be exchanged during operation (hot-swap mode). In this case,
at least one battery must be always in the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit.
Do not remove both batteries at the same time.
When inserted in the bay of the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit, the battery
state can be displayed via the following possibilities:

Operation

●The battery state is displayed in the web interface of the R&S TSMA. For
details, refer to "R&S TSMA Autonomous Mobile Network Scanner - User
Manual" (R&S No. 1177.5610.02).
●The battery status is displayed via the two LEDs on the rear side of the R&S
TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit.

Operation
R&S®TSMA-BP
19Getting Started 1177.5885.02 ─ 05
The LEDs of the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit are controlled by the
R&S TSMA instrument. The R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack Unit without con-
nected R&S TSMA instrument does not display the charging status via the
LEDs.
In order to check the charging status of the batteries without connected
R&S TSMA, remove the batteries from the R&S TSMA-BP Battery Pack
Unit and check the battery internal display.
