Automation
Communications systems require routine spectrum monitoring to keep them
working reliably long term. Routine spectrum monitoring is usually automated
with software that controls the spectrum analyzer remotely. You can program
and control the N9340B using SCPI programming over LAN or USB and monitor
signal changes remotely.
The following two modes are used to set up the N9340B’s LAN IP address:
– Static
– DHCP
For the following demos, the N9340B’s PC software and the Keysight I/O library
should be installed on your PC.
Remote control the N9340B via USB.
