Ping client
The "Ping Client" page provides the ping utility to verify the connection between the
LXI-compliant instrument and another device.
The ping is initiated from the instrument. Using the
ICMP
echo request and echo reply
packets, this function checks whether the communication with a device via LAN is
working. Ping is useful for the diagnosis of IP network or router failures.
To initiate a ping at the instrument:
1. On the "Ping Client" page, enter the IP address of the host in the "Destination
Address" field (for example 10.113.1.151).
2. Select "Submit".

SCPI remote trace
The remote trace functionality allows you to trace input and output strings at the
remote control interface of the R&S
messages with the LXI web browser interface"
A recorded trace (message log) can be evaluated directly in the dialog. Use the high-
lighting and navigation functions provided by the lower toolbar to locate error mes-
sages and messages containing arbitrary search strings. You can also export the mes-
sage log to a
*.csv
file and evaluate the file using a suitable program.
To trace and display messages, switch on "logging" and "live mode" in the toolbar.
