R&S®GB2000 Remote Control Unit
Remote control for detached operation
Remote Control Unit R&S® GB2000 enables the remote control of all transceivers of the R&S® XK2000 family. The use of R&S® GB2000 is recommendedwhenever detached operation – alsoover any distance – is required because of reasons of space or system layout (central control unit and radio equipmentare at different locations). An integrated,serial and bus-compatible interface affords point-to-point and addressable operation for up to 99 radiosin a system. For more than 10 radios line drivers must be provided. At distancesless than 100 m (between R&S® GB ... and R&S® XK ...) a 3-core screened cable is sufficient.
As far as the front-panel layout and operating concept are concerned Remote Control Unit R&S® GB 2000 is identical with the local operationof Transceiver R&S® XK2100 and Receiver/ Exciter R&S® GX2900. An optionalswivel adapter allows the operator to make adjustments for optimal viewing angle and ergonomic operation.
