Figure 14-3: Remote control of external RF instruments via the R&S
SMW
In this setup, a controller does not need to access the external instruments directly.
Instead, the R&S SMW acts as a controller to these instruments.
We assume that:
●
You control the R&S SMW from a remote controller
●
The instruments are connected to a LAN and there is no active remote channel
from the controller to the external instruments
●
External RF instruments are connected to the R&S SMW, for example two
R&S SGS.
To control an external instrument from the R&S SMW remotely
Perform the following general steps:
1. Connect the external RF instruments to the R&S SMW.
See:
● Chapter 4.9.5, "How to Cable the Instruments in MIMO Test Setups",
on page 194
● "To connect instruments to the I/Q analog interface" on page 196
2. Connect a controller and establish a remote control connection to the R&S SMW,
see Chapter 13.7, "Controlling the R&S SMW Remotely", on page 806.
3. Write an application program and use the
SCONfiguration:EXTernal:<Connector>:REMote:SEND commands to con-
trol the connected RF instruments.
See also Example "Connecting an external instrument and sending SCPI com-
mands to it" on page 911.
