General Instrument Settings
9.3 Interface settings
This menu item is used for the settings of the diverse
interfaces:
❙Dual Interface HO720 USB/RS-232 (baud rate, number of
stop bits, parity, handshake on/off)
❙LAN Interface HO730/HO732 (IP address, sub net mask
etc., see the manual of the HO730/HO732) and
❙the IEEE-488 GPIB interface HO740 (GPIB-address)
The desired interface can be selected with the respective
soft menu key. Use the soft menu item PARAMETER to
set the necessary interface parameters. More information
about the selected interface you can find in chapter 12 or
in the appropriate interface manuals. Pushing the softkey
MENU OFF you can jump back to the last menu.
9.4 Printer settings
The R&S®HMS-X supports printing of the screen contents
on a connected printer (USB printers with postscript). The
menu item Print contains settings for PCL or PCLX prin-
ters. If a printer is detected the soft menu key PRINT is no
longer grayed out. Pushing this softkey will open a sub-
menu where you can select the paper format and the
colour mode. The paper formats A4, A5, B5, B6, and
Executive are possible. The menu item Color Mode allows
the selection of the modes Grayscale, Color or Inverted.
The grayscale mode converts a color display to a gray-
scale display which can be printed on a Black-and-White
printer. The Color Mode will print the display in color as it
is shown on the screen (black background). In the Inver-
ted Mode the color display will be printed in color with a
white background on a color printer in order to save toner
and ink.
9.5 Reference frequency
This submenu is used to switch between the internal
(TCXO) and external reference source. The softkey INTER-
NAL switches to the built in TCXO. The softkey EXTERNAL
is used to select a 10 MHz reference source which will
be input via Ref In BNC connector on the backside of the
instrument.
9.6 Update (Firmware / Help)
If a new firmware version of the R&S®HMS-X is available
you can download the actual firmware from the ROHDE &
SCHWARZ homepage. The firmware is packed into a ZIP
data packet. After downloading the ZIP data unpack it into
the basic directory of a FAT or FAT32 formated USB stick
(.hfu file). Afterwards insert the stick into the USB port on
the HMF front panel and push the key SETUP. After se-
lecting the menu item UPDATE a window will open which
displays the actual firmware version indicating the version
number, the date and build information
Pressing the softkey to update the instrument firmware will
result in a search for the corresponding file on the USB
stick. The information for the new firmware to be installed
will then be displayed on the stick below the row labeled
NEW:. The version number will be displayed in red in case
the existing firmware on the instrument is identical to the
latest version; otherwise the version number will be shown
in green. Only if this is the case, press the soft menu
EXECUTE to start the update.
Attention!
At the time of the update the unit will not respond on any inputs
and the display will be resettet. Does not switch off the unit du-
ring the update process. A interruption of power supply can des-
troy the unit!
