Tip:

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

 

VISA (Virtual Instru-

ment Software Architecture) library provided for download at the Rohde

 

&

 

Schwarz

website 

http://www.rohde-schwarz.com/rsvisa

.

This way of operation and the instructions how to set up a connection for remote con-
trol are described in the operating manual, chapter "Remote Control Basics". The
description of the remote control commands is provided in the operating manual, chap-
ter "Remote Control Commands".

8.3

 

Remote Access

Remote access is the operating of the instrument from a remote computer. Both the
R&S

 

SMB and the computer are connected in a LAN.

Remote access

 in contrast to 

remote control

 does not use remote-control commands

but a separate software which is installed on the remote computer. After its start, the
software simulates the user interface of the instrument. The instrument can thus be
operated from the remote computer as on the unit itself. The individual functions are
operated using the mouse and keyboard. Specific instrument functions can be execu-
ted using specific key combinations on the keyboard or a front panel key emulation that
can be operated with the mouse.

This way of operation and the instructions how to set up a connection for remote
access are described in 

Chapter 4.16, "Remote Access via an External Controller"
