Band configuration changes
Changes to the band configuration cannot be made randomly; within any 48-hour
period, the band configuration may only be changed up to 5 times (where one "configu-
ration change" may consist of several band changes at the same time, see
A counter is decremented after each (applied) change. How many changes have
already been performed and how many are still possible within the current time frame
is displayed at the bottom of the "Band Configuration" tab of the "R&S TSME Device
Manager".
Red dates indicate the changes recently made, while green dates indicate possible
changes left.
Applying band configuration changes
Changes to the band configuration are only applied to the R&S TSMA6B when you
select the "Accept Band Changes" button in the "Band Configuration" tab of the "R&S
TSME Device Manager".
Only then the counter for possible band changes (within 48 hours) is decremented.

Obtaining Firmware and Correction Data Updates -
"Updates"
The "R&S TSME Device Manager" is always provided with the most recent basic
FPGA (section 0). If a newer one becomes available due to security or functional
issues, a message is indicated in the "Device Analysis Output" at the bottom of the
"R&S TSME Device Manager" window. In this case, and only in this case, it is recom-
mended that you install this update on your R&S TSMA6B.
The correction data on your R&S TSMA6B should always be kept up-to-date. Available
updates are also indicated in the "Device Analysis Output" and it is recommended that
you install them.
If a R&S TSME30DC downconverter is correctly connected, the basic FPGA and cor-
rection data for the downconverter are additionally displayed in a second line.
Risk of inoperability of device due to FPGA update
Before performing an update, make sure you have a stable power supply and the LAN
connection will not be interrupted. Both updates take a few minutes.
If the LAN connection is interrupted during an FPGA update, the device may become
inoperable. Thus, only install such an update if it is explicitly recommended by a mes-
sage in the "Device Analysis Output" of the "R&S TSME Device Manager" or by the
Rohde
&
Schwarz support center.
