Starting-up does not require a strict course of action, but we recommend the following
sequence:
1. Establish the LAN connection to a PC running with R&S ROMES or Customer
Software application (TSMW-K1 Digital I/Q interface).
2. Establish the connection to the RF antenna.
3. Establish the connection to the GPS antenna (optional).
4. Connect external devices to the In/Out ports (application specific).
5. Use the supplied power cable to connect the power supply to TSMW.
As soon as you connect the TSMW to the power supply, the instrument switches to the
Operating Mode and completes the power on sequence. A self test is done during the power
on sequence. After completing the self-test successfully the PROC STATE LED turns on
and will keep it on. In case of a failure during the self test the light starts flashing. After
power on the LED CONFIG STATE starts blinking for a few seconds afterwards the light will
be keep on.
The power on sequence can be monitored by means of the front-panel LEDs (see Figure
3-1: Front panel view on page 9 for LED location). Additional information can be seen via
the RS-232-C interface (see Troubleshooting via RS 232 on page 52).

Firmware Update
The duration of the firmware download will be indicated via a status bar
and the LEDs of the devices.
Immediately after the reboot of the TSMW click the refresh button of the Web Browser.
An acknowledge button appears.
Within 5 seconds click the button to confirm the installation of the new firmware version.
INFO
Configure IP Settings
Devices are preconfigured with the default IP address 192.168.0.2 and SubNet mask
255.255.255.0. The IP address and subnet mask can be changed with the Web interface to
the required settings for the network. The configuration can also be queried and changed via
the RS232 interface. To adopt the new settings the system needs a restart.
Generally we recommend using a separated network interface card, see Connecting the
LAN Interface on page 21.

Low Battery
The LOW BAT LED indicates that the battery is depth discharged. The measurements are
not interrupted or influenced. It is possible to change the battery at run time without any
consequence for the measurement.
Temperature Error
The electronic equipment in the radio network analyzer is protected against thermal
destruction. If the temperature inside the analyzer exceeds a specific limit, the unit changes

Troubleshooting
to the TEMP ERROR mode and switches off the main voltages. The ventilation runs another
15 sec then also the LEDs turn off.
To switch the unit to Standby Mode again, press the POWER button.
If the temperature error occurs repeatedly within the operating temperature range, please
make sure that the air can really escape freely through the vents at the sides on the left and
the right. If the air circulation is guaranteed and the failure remains constant, return the
device to Rohde & Schwarz service.
Config Error
The TSMW configuration data and the boot sequence are read from the internal compact
flash (CF) card. If the CONFIG ERROR LED indicates Flash Card Missing (LED blinking
fast) immediately after the analyzer has been powered on, the configuration data cannot be
read from the CF card.
If the CONFIG ERR LED indicates Flash Card Error (LED on), the flash card may also
contain erroneous or corrupt files. After five seconds indicating a Configuration Error the
device will switch to Standby Mode.
The reason for the Flash Card Error during ordinary R&S ROMES measurements is
usually a program failure in the instrument itself. At this stage, the instrument will no longer
respond to the R&S ROMES application. You can check this by monitoring the RS-232-C
output (see Tracing R&S ROMES Measuring Mode) and the PROCESS LEDs on the front
panel (see R&S ROMES Measuring Mode). If an error occurs, the blinking of the LEDs
stops!
In this case, shut down the R&S ROMES application from the Windows Task Manager and
reset the TSMW. Wait for the TSMW to complete the power on sequence and then set up a
new R&S ROMES measurement.
If the error persists, contact Rohde & Schwarz support.
INFO
Device Warranty!
You will lose any kind of warranty if you open the cover of the flash card
on the rear panel and remove the flash card.
For information on how to perform R&S ROMES measurements, refer to the R&S
ROMES documentation.)
Power Failure
At least one internal voltage rail is out of range. Return the device to Rohde & Schwarz
service.

Troubleshooting
RS-232-C Output
During start up and normal operation the TSMW outputs status information via the RS-232C connector on the rear panel parallel with standard communication via the LAN interface.
Monitoring the output information on the serial interface does not decrease the analyzer's
performance in any manner, but is always a valuable tool to verify the analyzer's current
state.
To display the status information on the computer, the following steps are necessary:
1. Connect a serial 9-pin null modem cable between the RS-232-C socket of the analyzer
and the serial interface of your PC.
2. Set up a terminal program connection on your computers RS-232-C interface with the
following settings:

Ping Command
To check if the application i.e. Digital I/Q Interface via Matlab, R&S ROMES or any
customer application is connected successfully to the TSMW via the LAN connection it is
possible to perform the ping command.
Open the command line: Start->Run
Type in the command ping 192.168.0.2 and wait for the answer.
The answer should look approximately like this one. If not refer to Problems during LAN
Connection to the TSMW on page 57.
