13.7.2 How to Change the GPIB Instrument Address
To control the instrument remotely via the GPIB bus, it must be addressed using the
GPIB address. The remote control address is factory-set to 28, but it can be changed if
it does not fit in the network environment. For remote control, addresses 0 through 30
are allowed. The GPIB address is maintained after a reset of the instrument settings.
To set the GPIB address:
1. Select "System Config > Remote Access > GPIB Address".
2. Select "GPIB Channel Address" and enter a value between 0 and 30.
Risk of losing remote connection
If the remote access and network settings had been configured to values different to
the default, executing a factory preset via remote control terminates the connection to
the instrument.
13.7.3 Establishing a Remote Control Connection over the LXI Browser
Interface
Via the LXI browser interface to the R&S SMW one or more users can control the
instrument remotely from another PC without additional installation. Most instrument
controls are available via the front panel simulation. File upload and download between
the instrument and the remote PC is also available.
