Exclusive Access
Checks whether the instrument is locked by another user and if not locks the instru-
ment.
When an instrument is locked, it is reserved for manual and remote operation. Locking
means, that you can operate the instrument exclusively from the remote PC on which
the R&S SGMA-GUI is running or from which the SCPI command is sent.
For interfaces using VISA, i.e. for LAN and USB, enabling the "Exclusive Access" trig-
gers the standard viLock request. For remote control over PCIe or Socket, the lock
request is performed on a higher application level.
Tip: We recommend that you lock the instrument before further configuration. Locked
instruments are not found by the scan function. Unlock the instrument to allow opera-
tion from another remote PC.
Note: The two functions "Exclusive Access" and monitoring are mutually exclusive.
Disable "Exclusive Access" if the instrument is monitored by an external PC.
Remote command:
:INSTruments:EACCess[:STATe]
:LOCK?
:UNLock
Device Identity
Triggers the device identification function. The [LAN] LED on the front panel of the
selected instrument blinks.
