●
<vendor ID> is the manufacturer ID for Rohde&Schwarz
●
<product ID> is the product identification of the R&S instrument
●
<serial number> is the individual serial number on the rear of the instrument
●
[::INSTR] indicates the instrument resource class (optional)
You can retrieve the USB resource string from the "SGMA-GUI > Instrument Name >
Setup > Remote" dialog.
Example:
USB::0x0AAD::0x0088::100021::INSTR
0x0AAD is the vendor ID for Rohde&Schwarz
0x0088 is the product ID for the R&S SGS
100021 is the serial number of the particular instrument
10.1.4 PCI Express Interface
A PCI Express (PCIe) connector is provided on the rear panel of the instrument.
Refer to Chapter 10.3, "Advanced Remote Control Using PCIe", on page 172 for a
description of how to set up a remote control connection via PCIe and the permitted
cables.
Via PCI Express some commands can be sent to the instrument with optimized speed
(memory-mapped remote control), e.g. frequency or level settings. This allows mini-
mum setup time.
PCIe resource string
The syntax of the used PCIe resource string is:
PCIe::<vendor ID>::<product ID>::<serial number>[::INSTR], where:
●
PCIe denotes the used interface
●
<vendor ID> is the manufacturer ID for Rohde&Schwarz
●
<product ID> is the product identification of the R&S instrument
●
<serial number> is the individual serial number on the rear of the instrument
●
[::INSTR] indicates the instrument resource class (optional)
You can retrieve the PCIe resource string from the "SGMA-GUI > Instrument Name >
Setup > Remote" dialog.
Example:
PCIe::0x162f::0x132e::100021::INSTR
0x162f is the vendor ID for Rohde&Schwarz
0x132e is the product ID for the R&S SGS
100021 is the serial number of the particular instrument
