firmware application packages for which you have no software option.
7. The next steps depend on the installation type:
a) Local installation: Click "Install".
b) Remote installation: Click "Next" to initiate a hardware scan and wait until the
"R&S Software Distributor" has drawn up a list of all R&S instruments which are
connected to the LAN.
If the hardware scan does not yield the desired results, check the "Options..."
settings and refer to the online help of the "R&S Software Distributor" for trou-
bleshooting.
c) Remote installation: Select your R&S CMW500 (or several instruments) from
the list and click "Install".
8. Follow the instructions of the "R&S Software Distributor" until the installation is fin-
ished.
9. Perform a restart of the instrument (if no automatic restart is performed).
10. Shut down the instrument a second time. Switch-off the instrument using the AC
power switch at the rear of the instrument.
11. Switch-on and start the instrument.
The R&S CMW500 is now ready to operate with the installed software.
Already installed software packages can be reinstalled using the repair function of the
"R&S Version Selector", see also chapter 2.9.5, "R&S Version Selector", on page 40.
