14.5.7 How to Set Up Remote Desktop
Remote Desktop is a Windows application which can be used to access and control
the instrument from a remote computer through a LAN connection. While the instru-
ment is in operation, the instrument screen contents are displayed on the remote com-
puter, and Remote Desktop provides access to all of the applications, files, and net-
work resources of the instrument. Thus, remote operation of the R&S ESW is possible.
With Microsoft Windows, Remote Desktop Client is part of the operating system. For
other versions of Windows, Microsoft offers the Remote Desktop Client as an add-on.
For details refer to the Microsoft Windows operating system documentation.
14.5.7.1 How to Configure the R&S ESW for Remote Operation via Remote Desktop
1. Create a fixed IP address for the TCP/IP protocol as described in Chapter 14.5.1.2,
"How to Assign the IP Address", on page 411.
Note: To avoid problems, use a fixed IP address.
When a DHCP server is used, a new IP address is assigned each time the instru-
ment is restarted. This address must first be determined on the instrument itself.
Thus, using a DHCP server is not suitable for remote operation of the R&S ESW
via Remote Desktop.
