2.1.4
Setting Up a Network (LAN) Connection
The R&S
SMBV100B is equipped with a network interface and can be connected to an
Ethernet LAN (local area network). Provided the appropriate rights have been assigned
by the network administrator, the interface can be used, for example:
●
To transfer data between a controller and the instrument, for example to run a
remote control program.
See
Chapter 11, "Network Operation and Remote Control"
●
To access or operate the instrument from a remote computer using the Ultr@VNC
program (or a similar tool, like another VNC client or any Web browser supporting
Java).
●
To transfer data from a remote computer and back, for example using network fold-
ers.
●
To use power sensors with netwok capability, e.g. the R&S NRP LAN power sen-
sors.
This section describes how to configure the LAN interface.
Accessing operating system
No access to the operating system is required for normal operation.
All necessary system settings can be made in the "Setup" dialog.
2.1.4.1
Connecting the Instrument to the Network
There are two methods to establish a LAN connection to the instrument:
●
A non-dedicated network (Ethernet) connection from the instrument to an existing
network
●
A dedicated network connection (Point-to-point connection) between the instru-
ment and a single computer
For addressing, both the instrument and the computer reqiure an IP address. The
address information is usually assigned to the devices automatically, depending on the
network capabilities.
If the IP address is not assigned automatically, see
Chapter 2.1.4.3, "Assigning the IP
on page 39 for information on how to assign the address manually.
