Remote Control

In addition to working with the R&S

 

AREG100A interactively, located directly at the

instrument, it is also possible to operate and control it from a remote PC.

The R&S

 

AREG100A supports various methods for remote control:

●

Connecting the instrument to a (LAN) network (see 

Chapter 3.1.3, "Setting Up a

Network (LAN) Connection"

, 

on page 24)

●

Using the LXI browser interface in a LAN network

●

Connecting a PC via the IEC-bus (IEEE 488) interface

●

Remote control via the USB interface

For remote control over LAN or USB, you can use the R&S

 

VISA (Virtual Instrument

Software Architecture) library provided for download at the Rohde
