5 Operating the Instrument
There are two ways to operate the R&S
RTM:
●
Manual operation: Use the function keys, rotary knobs and softkeys on the front
panel to control the instrument. The principles of manual operation are explained in
this section.
●
Remote control: Create programs to automatize repeating settings, tests and mea-
surements. The instrument is connected to a computer that is running the program.
This way of operation is described in the "User Manual", in the "Remote Control"
chapter.
