4.4.2 Remote Settings
The "Remote" section of the "Setup" dialog lists all available interface and protocol types
for remote control of the instrument and their parameters.
The highest level lists the interface and protocol types:
●
HI-SLIP (LAN connector, HiSLIP protocol)
●
VXI-11 (LAN connector, VXI-11 protocol)
●
IEC (GPIB bus interface, option R&S CMW-B612A or R&S CMW-B612B)
●
USB2 ("USB Remote" connector)
●
TCPIP (LAN connector, VISA socket resource)
For remote control via LAN it is recommended to use the HiSLIP protocol.
The entries at the second level correspond to one remote channel each. Each channel
is assigned to one sub-instrument. Several channels can be used in parallel. The number
of available channels depends on the protocol type and on the installed options.
