●
"Interface" selects an interface/protocol type for the connection. In addition to the
GPIB, VXI-11, SOCKET, and USB-VISA interface types (for devices connected to
the GPIB Bus, LAN or USB connectors of the analyzer; see Table 5-12), the ana-
lyzer supports any "Other" interface supported by the installed VISA library.
●
"Address" contains the address for the current interface type. GPIB addresses
must be unique for all devices connected to the GPIB bus (range: 0 to 30), GPIB
and IP addresses must agree with the entries in the VISA library. The remaining
interface types require composite address formats; see Table 5-12.
If an instrument is connected to the R&S ZNA, the entries in the [Driver for New
Instrument] panel can be auto-detected for the specified interface type and
address.
●
"Identify" sends an identification query ("IDN?") to the specified device address in
order to identify the type and serial number of the connected generator and select
an appropriate driver file. Generator driver files (*.gen) are stored in the
Resources\ExtDev subdirectory of the analyzer's program directory.
