R&S EB500
Retrieving the IP address of a R&S EB500
It is more convenient to use DHCP with the serial number of the R&S EB500.
For example, if the serial number is 100.001-002, the DHCP name will be "rs-
eb500-100001-002". If DHCP is unavailable, it is advisable to run the
"Update32" tool as explained in: ​
on page 68 and assign a static IP address.

Installation Procedure

Execute the Remote Access GUI installer by clicking on GUI Installation for
Remote Access on the html menu. Allow access if there are security warnings.
Uninstalling an earlier version of the GUI
If an earlier version of the GUI exists, it must be uninstalled before the installation
of a new GUI can proceed. A dialog will appear first, which requests to uninstall this
earlier version:
Click OK and wait for the uninstall to proceed.
Once uninstall is completed, the installation can go ahead. The first step is to key-
in the IP address and port number of the R&S EB500. You can find it under "Current
IP Address" and "Current Port" after opening the "Network Configuration" dialog
(SETUP > "Config" > "Network") on the front panel.
If your local network has a DNS server and you know the serial number of the
R&S EB500, it can be more convenient to use DHCP with the name under which
the R&S EB500 is known: for a R&S EB500 with serial number e.g. 100001-002 the
DHCP name will be: "rs-eb500-100001-002".
