Overview of the possible solutions
If the required remote control connections (LAN or USB) to the external instruments
are established additionally to the I/Q connections, you can control these external devi-
ces from the R&S SMW in one of the following ways:
●
In manual operation:
– Use the "System Configuration > External RF and I/Q" settings and the "Exter-
nal Instruments > Config > External Instrument Configuration" settings.
You can for example set the frequency and level of the connected instruments,
as well as activate or deactivate their RF outputs.
See Chapter 4.9.6, "How to Connect and Configure External Instruments",
on page 195
– Use the "External Instrument Configuration > Remote Control" settings to send
individual SCPI commands or a sequence of SCPI commands to the connected
external instruments.
●
In remote operation:
– Use the SCONfiguration:... remote control commands that correspond to
settings in manual operation
See Example "Connecting and configuring external instrument" on page 905
– Use the SCONfiguration:EXTernal:<Connector>:REMote:SEND com-
mands to control the connected RF instruments
See "Your R&S SMW as a controller of external instruments" on page 909.
The Figure 14-2 shows the extent of the particular solution.

The Figure 14-3 shows a simplified version of the test setup on Figure 4-24. The figure
shows a configuration example of two R&S SGS, directly controlled by an R&S SMW.
The figure illustrates the principle and does not show all connections.
