Activating the SCPI remote trace
1. On the instrument:
a) Enable the LAN interface.
See Chapter 13.6.1, "How To Enable Access via LAN", on page 803.
b) Enable "SCPI over LAN".
See Chapter 13.6.2, "How To Activate LAN Services", on page 803.
2. Connect the remote PC and the instrument in the same network.
See also Chapter 13.6.3, "How To Connect to LAN", on page 804.
3. Start a web browser that supports HTML5 (W3C compliant).
4. Enter the IP address of the R&S SMW in the browser's address bar.
The welcome page is displayed.
5. In the navigation pane, select "Diagnostics > SCPI Remote Trace".
6. In the toolbar bar of the "SCPI Remote Trace" page, select "live mode > on" and
"logging > on".
"live mode > on" displays all commands and responses, and "logging > on" also
traces messages.
If you now control the R&S SMW with SCPI commands, using an appropriate tool,
the LXI function records the information sent and received.
The function records all sent commands, received responses and messages, and
saves them in an internal database. If "live mode" is disabled, you can display the
recent traces upon request, using the "refresh" button. You can also save the log in
a file.
Note: The diagnostics functionality will be extended in later releases, e.g. to down-
load or upload SCPI command files from / to the instrument.
