Risk of network failure
Consult your network administrator before performing the following tasks:
●
Connecting the instrument to the network
●
Configuring the network
●
Changing IP addresses
●
Exchanging hardware
Errors can affect the entire network.
► Connect the R&S EVSF1000 to the LAN via the LAN interface on the rear
panel of the instrument.
By default, the instrument is configured to use dynamic TCP/IP configuration and
obtain all address information automatically. Thus, it is safe to establish a physical
connection to the LAN without any previous instrument configuration. The used IP
address is indicated in the mini display directly on the R&S
EVSF1000.
As an alternative, you can use the permanent instrument name to access
the R&S
EVSF1000. The default instrument name is <Type><variant>-
<serial_number>, for example, EVSF1000-123456. For information on
determining the serial number, see
Chapter 5.2.12, "Device ID" ,
on page 32.
For more information on LAN configuration, see the R&S EVSF1000 user man-
ual.
4.9 Performing an Auto-Calibration
After setting up the R&S EVSF1000, perform an auto-calibration to ensure the
accuracy of the measurements. After initial setup, it is recommended that you
perform an auto-calibration every 2 months or if the difference of the environment
temperature changes by more than 10
°C.
If valid data for automatic calibration is not available, the message "UNCAL" is
displayed in the status line of the R&S
EVSF1000 display.
