Embedded Web Server: Using the X-Series Signal Analyzers
Remotely
The instrument can be controlled using either the Embedded Web Server or
Windows Remote Desktop. The Embedded Web Server is a good solution
when you do not want to log into the instrument's user account. This allows
you to view the display or control the instrument, without logging the current
user off. Windows Remote Desktop must be used when the remote computer
keyboard is needed as an input device (such as for editing filenames, or setting
the title.) Also, Windows Remote Desktop generally has a faster response time.
The Embedded Web Server functionality is only for a single user.
NOTE

Accessing the instrument through the Internet

It is possible to access and control the instrument through the Internet and
World Wide Web, or a local internet, using the built-in Embedded Server
functionality. This section provides details of how to use this functionality.
The instrument may also be accessed and controlled using the Windows
Remote Desktop functionality (see the section
X-Series Signal Analyzers Remotely" on page
Remote Desktop and the Embedded Web Server cannot be run at the same

The instrument Embedded Server capabilities are fully compliant with the LXI
(LAN eXtensions for Instrumentation) standard.
To gain access to the instrument from the LAN, you need to know its
