Background information
Refer to
Chapter 5.7.29, "Generic Devices"
The configuration of a new generic device involves the following steps:
1. Connect the device to your R&S
ZNA using a LAN (VXI-11), GPIB, or USB inter-
face.
2. If the device is connected via LAN, enable "LAN detection"
3. Select "Scan Instruments" and wait until the device appears in the table of "Known
Devices".
4. Select "+" to copy the device to the list of configured devices.
If the R&S
ZNA fails to detect a connected external device, click
the interface type and address manually.
To control external devices via GPIB, the pre-installed RS Visa library (
visa32.dll
)
must be replaced by the
NI Visa
library.
