3. Select "Scan Instruments" and wait until the device appears in the table of "Known
Devices".
4. Select "+" to copy the device to the list of configured devices.
If the R&S ZNA fails to detect a connected external device, click Add Device to define
the interface type and address manually.
To control external devices via GPIB, the pre-installed RS Visa library (visa32.dll)
must be replaced by the NI Visa library.
Known Devices/Address Filter/Clear
Table with all VISA-capable devices that the analyzer detects to be online (i.e. connec-
ted and switched on). Scan Instruments refreshes the table. The R&S ZNA can auto-
detect the serial number of the connected devices.
"Address Filter" allows you to filter the known devices to the specified address frag-
ment, "Clear" removes the filter.
For devices that are not autoconfigured by the analyzer firmware, "+" copies the device
to the table of Configured Devices.

Configured Devices
Table with all generators in use with their properties. The properties of manually config-
ured devices (using Add Device) can be changed in the dialog.
The following symbols indicate the status of the respective device:
●
– The device is online (connected, switched on, ready to be used)
●
– Communication error
In this case, check whether the device is properly connected to the configured
interface.
Remote command:

Scan Instruments
Performs an autodetection of "Known Devices" on the supported interfaces.
Note: Unintentional switchover to remote control
When using the NI-VISA library, ensure that the network analyzer itself is not listed as
a network device in the Measurement & Automation Explorer. Otherwise, "Scan Instru-
ments" sends an identification query (*IDN?), causing the analyzer to close the "Exter-
nal Generators" dialog (without executing "Scan Instruments") and to activate the
remote screen.
