R&S ZNB/ZNBT
When using the NI-VISA library, ensure that the network analyzer itself is not listed as
a network device in the Measurement & Automation Explorer. Otherwise, "Scan Instru-
ments" initiates an identification query (*IDN?), causing the analyzer to close the
"External Power Meters" dialog (without executing "Scan Instruments") and to activate
the remote screen.
Remote command:
n/a
LAN Detection
Activate "LAN Detection" to include the LAN interface in the autodetection sequence
(see
Note: "LAN detection" only works for external devices on the IP subnet with the
R&S ZNB/ZNBT.
As a prerequisite, the R&S ZNB/ZNBT must accept incoming connections on UDP port
2473. If necessary, add a corresponding inbound rule to your firewall settings.
Remote command:
n/a
Add Device
Adds a new instrument to the list of "Configured Devices".
In the "Add External Power Meter" dialog, you can specify the instrument and connec-
tion properties:
●
"Interface" selects an interface/protocol type for the connection. In addition to the
GPIB, VXI-11 and SOCKET interface types, the analyzer accepts any "Other" inter-
face supported by the installed VISA library.
–
–
●
"Address" contains the address for the current interface type. GPIB addresses
must be unique for all devices connected to the GPIB bus (range: 0 to 30), GPIB
and IP addresses must agree with the entries in the VISA library. The remaining
interface types require composite address formats; see
User Manual 1173.9163.02 ─ 62
Scan Instruments).
GPIB, VXI-11 and SOCKET is applicable for devices connected to the GPIB
Bus or LAN connectors on the rear panel of the analyzer, respectively.
"Other" is used in particular for USB connections, e.g. for auto-detected
R&S NRP-Zxx sensors.
