Raw socket mode
TCPIP::<IP_address>::<IP_port>::SOCKET
The default port number for SCPI socket communication is 5025.
Example:
If the instrument has the IP address
192.1.2.3
; the valid resource string is:
TCPIP::192.1.2.3::5025::SOCKET
With host name instead of IP address:
TCPIP::<host_name>::<IP_port>::SOCKET
Example:
If the host name is
RSRT1
; the valid resource string is:
TCPIP::RSRT1::
5025::SOCKET
The end character must be set to linefeed.
15.1.3 Switching to Remote Control
When you switch on the instrument, it is always in manual operation state ("local" state)
and can be operated via the front panel.
When you send a command from the control computer, it is received and executed by
the R&S
RTM. The display remains on, manual operation via the front panel is always
possible.
