Rohde & Schwarz CDS-SW

Control and monitoring of workbenches and instruments

Product Overview

Managing large student groups in a teaching environment can be difficult, complicated by the variety of workbenches and instruments in use. In order to address this challenge, Rohde & Schwarz offers the CDS campus dashboard. This single software package considerably simplifies the teacher’s workﬂow by enabling control of the students’ workbenches and instruments either individually or simultaneously as a group. CDS allows the teacher to provide identical conditions for all students, through arranging the instruments on virtual benches that can be customized to match the user’s laboratory layout. The easy-to-use software can also run simultaneous firmware updates on multiple instruments with just a few clicks.

Grouping several instruments into multiple virtual benches gives a clear overview of the laboratory in the software interface, including the status of each individual instrument.

An automated search detects all supported instruments in the local network, making the initial setup process easy and fast. Alternatively, an .xml list of individual instruments can be loaded into the software.

The CDS campus dashboard remotely controls up to 300 individual instruments (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers and power supplies). Lab managers, tutors, students and professors equally benefit from its excellent usability, simplified workﬂows and automation capabilities.

Benefits to the University

• Our Interactive online courses allow learners to progress at their own pace.
• Simplifies workflow
• Automation with up to 300 users
• Set up process easy and fast

Rohde & Schwarz NGE100 series

Product Overview

What sets these power supplies apart from others in their class? All channels are galvanically isolated and earth-free. All channels are electrically equivalent with the same voltage, current and power. Parallel and serial operation with protection functions to safeguard instrument and DUT. Tracking and link functions and a remote control via USB interface and optional LAN or wireless LAN, unique in this class.

Protection functions to safeguard instrument and DUT Multipurpose protection functions are not standard in power supplies in the basic class. Here again, the R&S®NGE100B power supply series raises the bar. For each channel, users can separately set the: Maximum current (electronic fuse, overcurrent protection, OCP) Maximum voltage (overvoltage protection, OVP) and Maximum power (overpower protection, OPP)

Benefits to the University

• Remote control via USB for online instructing
• All channels are electrically equivalent
• Protection functions to safeguard instrument and DUT, no other power supply has this in its class

Rohde & Schwarz RTB2000 Series Oscilloscope

Product Overview

The RTB2000 is the perfect tool to teach students how to measure with an oscilloscope. With the “power of ten” (10-bit ADC, 10 Msample memory and 10.1” touchscreen) and a smart operating concept, it provides users with a powerful, modern platform. The 10.1’ screen is perfect for showing online demo lessons that are conveniently loaded on the oscilloscope.

With the RTB2000, a single instrument can be simultaneously used by several students, and reports are easy to create with the handy and ﬂexible screen annotation tool. In addition to having the largest screen in its class, the RTB2000 offers other standout characteristics. Its 10-bit A/D converter delivers a fourfold improvement compared with conventional 8-bit converters, resulting in sharper waveforms with more signal detail that would otherwise be missed. The instrument also features a class-leading memory depth, 10 times more than similar oscilloscopes in the same instrument class. The RTB2000 comes with a wide range of available options. The RTB-B1 option turns every RTB2000 into an intuitive-to-use mixed signal oscilloscope (MSO) with 16 additional digital channels.

Benefits to the University

• Built in demo lesson feature for online teaching
• Large screen for easy viewing
• Includes all bench instruments except a power supply
