●
A remote PC is connected to the master instrument, the remote PC and the instru-
ment are switched on and a connection between them is established.
The instrument and the extension are connected via a direct remote connection or
over network/switch. All interfaces (LAN, PCIe, or USB) can be used for controlling
the SGU.
●
The R&S SGMA-GUI or an application program is running on the remote PC.
●
Signal connections between the R&S SGS and the R&S SGU are established, i.e.
the connections between:
– The "RF 50Ω" connector of the R&S SGS and the "LO IN" of the R&S SGU
– For vector modulated signals, the "I/Q Out" connectors of the R&S SGU and
the "I/Q In" of the R&S SGS
– The "TRIG" connectors of both instruments
This section describes the manual operation via the R&S SGMA-GUI software. The
remote commands required to define these settings are described in Chapter 13.8,
"EXTension subsystem", on page 231.
To access the extension mode settings and enable the extension mode
1. Select "SGMA-GUI > Instrument Name > Extension".
Tip: Steps 2 and 3 can be omitted if the R&S SGS and a single R&S SGU are con-
nected using PCIe or USB or by a direct LAN connection. In this case, R&S SGS
automatically activates the R&S SGU.
2. Trigger "Scan" to find all available instruments that can serve as an extension to
the particular instrument.
3. Select an instrument from the list
4. Set "Available Instruments > Select > On" to enable it as an extension.
A green status indicator "Connected" indicates the successfully established remote
connection to the extension.
