Dataset name and file name
The "Name" of the dataset is the name that is displayed in the dataset table.
When you save the dataset with the "Save to File" feature, you can select the location
where the file is saved and a file name (which can be different to the dataset name).
When you close the dialog box with "Close", the dataset is still saved, but is available
only on the R&S
ESW you have created it on (no file is created).
"File Explorer": Instead of using the file manager of the R&S ESW firmware, you can
also use the Microsoft Windows File Explorer to manage files.
In addition, you can include a short "Comment" that contains additional information
about the dataset.

Connection between R&S ESW to the RF switch
Using an RF switch in the measurement requires you to establish a connection
between the R&S
ESW (as the controlling device) and the RF switch.
You can define the address of the RF switch in the "VISA string" input field. Depending
on the type of connection / protocol (VXI-11, HiSlip and GPIB), make sure that the
VISA string contains the correct prefix.
Example for VXI-11:
TCPIP::192.0.2.0::INSTR
Example for HiSlip:
TCPIP::192.0.2.0::HISLIP
Example for GPIB:
GPIB::20::INSTR
Remote command:
[SENSe:]CORRection:SWITch:ADDRess

RF input selection
Selects the RF input of the R&S ESW used for the RF switch measurement.
When you run a measurement based on a certain dataset, the application assumes
that the RF switch is connected to the selected input of the R&S
ESW.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]CORRection:SWITch:INPut
on page 632
RF switch control
The RF switch is controlled with a sequence of remote commands that you can define
for each transducer range you have in the setup (represented by the 10 input fields in
the dialog box).
