7.2 Operation with Windows Remote Desktop
In production test and measurement, a common requirement is central monitoring of
the T&M instruments for remote maintenance and remote diagnostics. Equipped with
the Windows Remote Desktop software, the R&S FSVA/FSV ideally meets require-
ments for use in production. (The computer that is used for remote operation is called
"controller" here.)
●
Access to the control functions via a virtual front panel (soft front panel)
●
Printout of measurement results directly from the controller
●
Storage of measured data on the controller's hard disk
The R&S FSVA/FSV is connected via a LAN, in which case the Windows operating
system also supports a connection via a modem. This section describes the configura-
tion of the R&S FSVA/FSV and the Remote Desktop Client of the controller. Details on
how to set up a modem connection are described in the Windows documentation.
7.2.1 Configuring the R&S FSVA/FSV for Remote Operation
To avoid problems, use a fixed IP address.
When a DHCP server is used, a new IP address is assigned each time the instrument
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 FSVA/FSV via Remote
Desktop.
1. Press the "Windows" key on the external keyboard or the CTRL + ESC key combi-
nation on your keyboard to access the operating system.
2. Select "Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System > Allow remote
access".
3. In the "System Properties" dialog box, in the "Remote" tab, select one of the "Allow
connections..." options, depending on your security requirements.
