The "rViCom" and"PC Mode" are selectable on all the R&S TSMA6s. The other modes
(NESTOR, ROMES, QualiPoc) are only selectable if the appropriate SW applications
are installed (see
Chapter 7.2, "Software Installation" , on page 65).
6.3.1 PC Mode
The "PC Mode" is the standard mode for installation of software and for the interactive
operation of the R&S
TSMA6. In this mode, no software application (NESTOR,
ROMES, QualiPoc) is started in the background.
6.3.2 Remote ViCom Server Mode
This mode starts the Remote ViCom Server on the R&S TSMA6. Measurement config-
uration and data collection are controlled from a remote connected handheld device. A
Remote ViCom client application needs to be installed on the handheld device for this
purpose.
The connection between the Remote ViCom server on the R&S TSMA6 and the client
application (Remote ViCom client) on the handheld device can be realized via Blue-
tooth
®
or WLAN.
The selection of the wireless interface type depends on the measurement task.
The WLAN connection allows a data throughput, which is about 10 times higher com-
pared to Bluetooth
®
.
The Bluetooth
®
connection is less influenced by radio interference.
