DNS addresses.
2.5.3.3 Remote Desktop Connection
"Remote Desktop" is a Windows application which can be used to access and control the
R&S CMW500 from a remote computer through a LAN connection. The R&S CMW500
GUI is then displayed on the remote computer together with an additional soft-front panel,
see chapter 2.4.4, "Using the Soft-Front Panel and Keyboard Shortcuts", on page 37).
To set up the first "Remote Desktop" connection to the instrument, proceed as follows:
1. Access the Windows operating system of the instrument. To do this you can either
press the Windows logo key on an external keyboard connected to the instrument or
you can press the SYS key on the front panel (only instruments with display).
2. Open the control panel (Start menu > Settings > Control Panel).
3. Double-click "System".
The "System Properties" dialog opens.
4. Select the "Remote" tab and enable "Allow users to connect remotely to this com-
puter".
5.
Close the dialog and display the R&S CMW500 GUI (R&S CMW application).
6.
Connect the tester to the network; see chapter 2.5.3.1, "Connecting a LAN Cable",
on page 46.
7.
Assign an IP address to the tester; see chapter 2.5.3.2, "Assigning an IP Address",
on page 46.
8. At a remote computer integrated in the LAN, create a "Remote Desktop" connection
using the tester's IP address. You can also use other utilities providing remote PC
access, e.g. VNC.
Password protection
Remote access to the R&S CMW500 requires a user name and password. In the factory
configuration, "instrument" is preset both for the user name and for the password. To
protect the tester from unauthorized access, it is recommended to change the password.
2.6 Maintenance
The instrument does not require any special maintenance.
