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" will send an identification query (*IDN?), causing the analyzer to close the
"External Generators" dialog (without executing "Scan Instruments") and to activate the
remote screen.

LAN Detection
Activate "LAN Detection" to include the LAN interface in the autodetection sequence
(see
Note: "LAN detection" will only work for external devices sharing the same 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.

the GPIB Bus, LAN or USB connectors of the analyzer; see
lyzer supports any "Other" interface 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
If an instrument is connected to the R&S ZNB/ZNBT, the entries in the [Driver for
New Instrument] panel can be auto-detected for the specified interface type and
address.
●
"Identify" sends an identification query ("IDN?") to the specified device address in
order to identify the type and serial number of the connected generator and select
