Remote monitoring and control of the instrument from a connected computer is also
possible with a standard web browser and a LAN connection.
For details, refer to the user manual, chapter "Web Control".
Alternatively, you can use Virtual Network Computing (VNC), which requires installation
of the VNC server on the R&S RTP. Installation and configuration are described in the
application note "Remote Monitoring and Control of the R&S RTP with a Web
Browser", available on the Rohde & Schwarz internet site.
3.3.1 Means of manual interaction
The R&S RTP provides the following means of manual interaction, which you can use
alternatively or complementary:
●
Touchscreen:
Using the touchscreen is the direct interaction way. Use your finger to place wave-
forms on the screen, mark areas for zoom and histograms, set parameters in dia-
log boxes, enter data, and much more. The control elements and actions on the
screen are based on common concepts, and you will easily become familiar with
the user interface.
Tapping the screen works like clicking mouse buttons:
– Tap = click: Selects a parameter or provokes an action.
– Double-tap = double-click has the same effect as touch and hold = right-click:
Opens the on-screen keyboard or keypad, or a specific editor if available
Use gestures to scale the waveform:
– Spread or pinch two fingers horizontally to change the horizontal scale (time-
base).
– Spread or pinch two fingers vertically to change the vertical scale of the active
waveform.
●
Function keys and rotary knobs:
The front panel provides nearly all functions and controls to operate the instrument
in the classic ways, without touchscreen. As an exception, the signal bar cannot be
used with front panel controls.
●
Optional mouse and/or keyboard:
These devices work conform to Windows standards. The navigation keys on the
front panel correspond to the keys on the keyboard.
The usage of the touchscreen and navigation keys is described in detail in the follow-
ing sections.
