cannot use the same license key to activate the option again. If you want to reactivate
an option, contact the Rohde & Schwarz service center to request a new license key.

3. Select "Enter License Key".
The alphanumeric editor is displayed.
4. Enter the 30-digit license key from "License Keys List" or from the registration print-
out, if the license was delivered unregistered.
5. Confirm your entry with the checkmark.
6. Switch the R&S NRX off and on again to reboot it.
7. Check whether the option is active:
a) Select [System]
> "Instrument Info"
> "Options".

If the option is active, it is displayed in the list.
