5.3.2 Remote Settings
The "Remote" section of the "Setup" dialog lists all available interface and protocol types
for remote control of the instrument and their parameters.
The highest level lists the interface and protocol types:
●
VXI-11 (LAN connector, VXI-11 protocol)
●
IEC (GPIB bus interface, option R&S CMW-B612A or R&S CMW-B612B)
●
USB2 ("USB Remote" connector)
●
TCPIP (LAN connector, VISA socket resource)
For remote control via LAN it is recommended to use "VXI-11", not "TCPIP".
The entries at the second level correspond to one remote channel each. Each channel
is dedicated to one sub-instrument, see
Assigned Instrument (all protocol types)
. Several
channels can be used in parallel. The number of available channels depends on the
protocol type and on the installed options.
