Addressability check on the USB interface
●
Addressability check of the Ethernet interface
The instrument performs a test on the Ethernet interface, and displays the transmis-
sion rate, e.g.
. When finished, the instrument displays the result under the net-
work icon, i.e. "OK" indicates that the interface can be addressed.
If the R&S NRP2 is not connected to a network hub or if a connection cannot be
established during booting, the message (Not Connected) is displayed instead
of "OK". It is however possible to establish a network connection later on at any time.
Results display of the function test
The R&S NRP2 shows the progress of the tests in a colored (orange) progress bar. The
tests are completed when the bar has reached the end of the screen and all symbols are
shown. The instrument indicates the result of each test underneath the respective symbol.
