Changing the IP Address for Multiple R&S
TSME Con-
figuration
By default, each R&S
TSME is delivered with the pre-configured IP address
192.168.0.2
. However, if multiple R&S
TSMEs are connected to the same host PC,
each device must have a unique IP address.
You can change the IP address for the connected R&S
TSMEs directly via the
R&S
TSME Device Manager. If necessary, the LAN adapter settings on the host PC
must also be adapted accordingly in order to reconnect with the R&S
TSME (see also
Chapter 2.2.2, "Setting Up the LAN Connection to the Host PC"
ular, the host PC (LAN adapters) must use the subnet in which the IP addresses of the
R&S
TSMEs are located.
Define the IP address in the "Network Configuration" tab of the R&S
TSME Device
Manager. The currently active IP address for the selected R&S
TSME is displayed for
reference. It remains active until you select the "Accept Network Changes" button.
Auto IP Address
If "full auto-IP" operating mode is used, the "R&S
TSME Device Manager" will show an
extra field indicating the automatically generated IP address used for the connection to
the host (see
with example IP address:
169.254.233.79
).
In this case, the IP address stored in TSME (here 192.168.0.2) is still used as an iden-
tifier for the connection by the software applications, i.e. a kind of virtual IP address.
If partial auto-IP operating mode or static IP operating mode is used, the "R&S
TSME
Device Manager" will not show this extra field and the IP address stored in the
R&S
TSME is also the IP address used for the physical connection (in this example:
192.168.0.2
).
The Auto IP functionality is only available with following versions of ROMES, ViCom
and NESTOR software.
●
R&S ROMES: Version 18.1 and later
●
R&S ViCOM: Version 16.20 and later
●
