Besides USBTMC, the NRP legacy protocol is available to ensure the compatibility of
the R&S NRPxxS(N) power sensors with the R&S NRP‑Z series of power sensors. The
usage of this protocol is not recommended for new applications.
The resource string represents an addressing scheme that is used to establish a com-
munication session with the sensor. It is based on the sensor address and some instru-
ment- and vendor-specific information.
USB Resource String
The syntax of the used USB resource string is:
USB::<vendor ID>::<product ID>::<serial number>[::INSTR]
where:
●
<vendor ID> is the vendor ID for Rohde & Schwarz (0x0AAD)
●
<product ID> is the product ID for the Rohde & Schwarz sensor
●
<serial number> is the individual serial number on the rear of the sensor

Example:
USB::0x0AAD::0x00E2::100001
0x0AAD is the vendor ID for Rohde & Schwarz.
0x00E2 is the product ID for the R&S NRP8S power sensor.
100001 is the serial number of the particular power sensor.
11.1.2 Ethernet Interface
The Ethernet interface of the R&S NRP LAN power sensors allows you to integrate
them in a local area network (LAN).
