Detect/Scan
If you connect an external instrument, you can fill in the required information in the
"External Instrument Configuration" dialog manually or use one of the provided "Detect/
Scan" functions. Both functions consider connections via the supported interfaces,
USB or LAN.
The parameter Select Instrument lists the pool of available instruments.
Note: The first initialization of an instrument connected to a network can last several
minutes. During their initialization, instruments are not detected by the detect/scan
function.
"Detect"
Searches for external instruments connected to this particular digital
interface of the R&S SMW.

"Scan"
Scans the network for connected supported instruments, like
R&S SMW, R&S SGS, R&S SGT, R&S SMBV, R&S SMU,
R&S SMATE, R&S SMJ, and R&S SZU
Note: The scan function searches throughout the entire network and
can last several minutes.

Purge/Clean
Triggers the instrument to purge at once all other LAN connections except the config-
ured and the currently selected one. This function allows you to retrieve a new pool of
valid instruments.
The clean function removes all configured settings from the "External RF and I/Q".
USB connections to external instruments are not affected.
