12 Network Operation and Remote Control
The description in this section requires basic knowledge of the remote control opera-
tion. Definitions specified in the SCPI standard are not provided.
You find some basic information to the SCPI syntax, command lists, and general pro-
gramming recommendations in Chapter B.1, "Additional Basics on Remote Control",
on page 1191. See also Chapter B.1.5, "Status Reporting System", on page 1203 for
information on the status reporting system of the instrument.
As an alternative to the interactive operation directly at the instrument, you can operate
the R&S SMW also from a remote location.
The Figure 12-1 shows the possibilities of the physical connection (interfaces) for the
remote access.

For information on how to configure a network, see the Chapter 2.1.4, "Setting Up a
Network (LAN) Connection", on page 45.
The various interfaces provide flexible access to the instrument, such as remote con-
trol, remote operation or remote file access. These remote access modes are funda-
mentally different, although they are often considered interchangeable. Refer to Over-
view of Remote Access Modes for details on these modes.
For comprehensive information on these topics, refer to the application note 1GP72:
