Export
Opens the standard file save browser for saving the list of the available instruments in
a mapping file. The mapping files have the file extension
.map
so the filename typed in
is automatically equipped with this extension.
A mapping file provides a cross-reference between the instruments' symbolic names
and their respective remote control parameters. The information in the mapping file is
grouped in rows, where one row corresponds to one configured instrument. The rows
have the following structure:
<InstrumentType> <SymbolicName> <IP_Address/Hostname>
<RemoteChannel> <SerialNumber>
Figure 6-1: Mapping file example
Tip:
In a remote control application program, address the instruments by their symbolic
names and retrieve the remain required settings from the mapping file. This workflow is
especially useful for frequent exchange of instruments.
Remote command:
Scan LAN instruments with host name prefix
Sets the prefix the searched host names begin with. Use this function to limit the
amount of the searched instruments and to speed up the scan process.
For example, set this field to "RsSGS, RsSGU, RsSGT", if you want to search for all
available instruments.
