Where:
●
OK: communication possible, no collisions
*) the R&S SGMA-GUI always uses the LAN device name instr1, see also Chap-
ter 10.1.2.3, "VXI-11 Protocol", on page 168.
●
X: communication is not possible without collisions
●
viLock/viUnlock: communication is only possible, if the remote control com-
mands are enclosed in a viLock () - viUnlock() pair.
The R&S SGMA-GUI uses the viLock()/viUnlock() functions.
The figure below shows an example of configuration where the monitor and the con-
troller are two different computers, connected to the same instrument over two different
hardware interfaces.
