www.allice.de Allice Messtechnik GmbH ® Remote Control Interfaces and Protocols R&S NRQ6 Ethernet Interface Ethernet Interface The Ethernet interface of the R&S NRQ6 allows you to integrate it in a local area network (LAN). Requirements ● TCP/IP network protocol The local area network must support the TCP/IP network protocol. The TCP/IP network protocol and the associated network services are precon- figured on the R&S NRQ6. - Page 54 www.allice.de Allice Messtechnik GmbH ® Remote Control Interfaces and Protocols R&S NRQ6 Ethernet Interface The IP address or hostname is used by the programs to identify and control the sensor. While the hostname is determined by settings in the sensor, the IP address is assigned by a DHCP server when the sensor requests one.

Page 56: Socket Communication
www.allice.de Allice Messtechnik GmbH ® Remote Control Interfaces and Protocols R&S NRQ6 Ethernet Interface The HiSLIP data is sent to the device using the "fire and forget" method with immediate return. Opposed to VXI-11, where each operation is blocked until a VXI-11 device handshake returns. Thus, a successful return of a VISA operation such as viWrite() does not guarantee that the sensor has finished (or even started) executing the requested command. -
