10.5.5 How to Set Up Remote Desktop
Remote Desktop is a Windows application which can be used to access and control
the instrument from a remote computer through a LAN connection. While the instru-
ment is in operation, the instrument screen contents are displayed on the remote com-
puter, and Remote Desktop provides access to all of the applications, files, and net-
work resources of the instrument. Thus, remote operation of the R&S
FSW is possible.
With Windows
7, Remote Desktop Client is part of the operating system. For other ver-
sions of Windows, Microsoft offers the Remote Desktop Client as an add-on.
This section provides basic instructions on setting up the Remote Desktop for the
R&S
FSW. For details refer to the Windows
