Operating Manual EMI TEST RECEIVER ESIB7 - Rohde & Schwarz

Options
ESIB
Option FSE-B16 – Ethernet Adapter
With the option Ethernet Adapter FSE-B16, the device can be connected to an Ethernet-LAN (local area
network). It is possible to transmit data via the network and to use the network printer. The adapter
operates with a 10 MHz Ethernet in line with standards IEEE 802.3 10Base2 (Thin Ethernet,
CheaperNet, BNC-Net) (B16 model 03) or 10Base5 (Thick Ethernet) (B16 model 02).
Hardware Installation
Caution:
Prior to installation contact the network administrator, especially in case of complex
LAN installations since mistakes in cabling might have influence the whole network.
If the adapter is installed at the factory, it is preconfigured. In case of retrofitting, refer to the installation
instructions. The hardware settings must not be modified since the functions of the device could
otherwise be impaired.
The following parameters are factory-set:
I/O Addr. 300, IRQ 5, MEM D0000
The connection with the network depends on the connectors used in the network.
BNC (Thin Ethernet, CheaperNet; FSE-B16 Var. 03)
Connection
Network traffic
The device is looped into the LAN segment via rear-panel 2 BNC
connectors.
If a cable is not connected to one of the BNC connectors, this BNC
connector has to be terminated with 50 Ohm. BNC T connectors
must not be used.
Note that the network traffic is disturbed if a segment is interrupted.
Requirements
Thin Ethernet segment requirements have to be complied with:
- maximum segment length of 185 m
- minimum distance between the connectors of 0.5 m
- maximum of 30 connectors per segment.
If components that comply with enhanced requirements are
exclusively used (Ethernet Adapter FSE-B16 complies with the
enhanced requirements):
- maximum length of segment of 300 m
- maximum number of connectors of 100
With repeaters used:
- maximum total length of the network of 900 m containing a
- maximum of 3 segments
- maximum of two repeaters between two connectors
