13.5 Remote access settings
This section outlines the settings required for accessing and configuring the provided
remote control interfaces. It includes network settings, access addresses, emulation
settings for using the command sets of other generators, and the access whith smart
devices.
About instrument emulations
You can remotely control the R&S SMA100B using the command set of another signal
generator. With this function you can, for example, replace a signal generator with an
R&S SMA100B in an automated test setup, without adjusting the command scripts
used.
The R&S SMA100B also covers command sets of Rohde & Schwarz signal genera-
tors. To achieve optimal compatibility when replacing an instrument, we recommend
that you select the emulation command set for the corresponding signal generator.
