8 Remote Control
The analyzer features LAN, USB Device, and GPIB_USB module interfaces. By using a computer
with these interfaces, and a suitable programming language (and/or NI-VISA software), users can
remotely control the analyzer based on SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments) command set, LabView and IVI (Interchangeable Virtual Instrument), to interoperate
with other programmable instruments.
This chapter introduces how to build communication between the analyzer and a controller
computer with these interfaces.
