DC Connection
► Connect the DC power supply on the rear panel of the R&S FPL1000 to the power
source using the supplied power cable.
4.1.1.7 Connecting an Optional Battery Pack (R&S FPL1-B31)
As an alternative to the fixed AC or DC power supply, the R&S FPL1000 can be oper-
ated by a battery pack if the option R&S FPL1-B31 is installed. If the battery pack is
installed and neither DC nor AC power is supplied, the R&S FPL1000 automatically
switches to battery operation (during operation).
The R&S FPL1000 comes with the battery pack already installed if the battery option
was ordered together with the instrument. Otherwise, insert the battery packs in the
slots at the top of the rear panel.
The battery pack is charged directly in the R&S FPL1000 via the common AC or DC
power supply. The battery pack can be charged at an ambient temperature between
+0 °C and +45 °C. If the temperature is above or below these values, charging is inter-
rupted. If the battery temperature rises above +53 °C, charging is stopped.
When the battery is being charged in standby mode, the POWER LED blinks. During
operation, the status bar indicates that the battery is being charged.
The battery pack is not charged in the factory. The battery pack must be charged
before it is used the first time. A new battery pack or a battery pack which has not been
used for a longer time attains full capacity after several charge/ discharge cycles.
Charging should be performed at a constant ambient temperature as temperature var-
iations may cause the charger to be switched off too early.
Additional battery packs (R&S FPL1-Z4)
In addition to the internal battery pack option (R&S FPL1-B30), spare battery packs are
available for the R&S FPL1000 (R&S FPL1-Z4). You can exchange the batteries while
the R&S FPL1000 is running, as long as one battery remains in the instrument. How-
ever, it is not recommended that you operate the R&S FPL1000 with only one battery
for a longer period. Additional battery packs can also be charged using the external
battery charger option R&S FSV-B34.
