Detect/Scan
If you connect an external instrument, you can fill in the required information in the
"External Instrument Configuration" dialog manually or use one of the provided "Detect/
Scan" functions. Both functions consider the connections via the supported interfaces,
USB or LAN.
The parameter External Instrument lists the pool of available instruments.
Scans the network for connected supported instruments, like:
R&S SMW, R&S SMM, R&S SMBV100B, R&S SGS, R&S SGT, R&S SMBV, and
R&S SZU
Note: The scan function searches throughout the entire network and can last several
minutes.
Note: The first initialization of an instrument connected to a network can last several
minutes. During their initialization, instruments are not detected by the detect/scan
function.
"Detect"
Searches for external instruments connected to this particular digital
interface of the R&S SMW.
