R&S ETC

Operating the Instrument in a LAN

The R&S ETC is equipped with a network interface and can be connected to an Ethernet
LAN (local area network). The network card operates with 100 Mbit Ethernet IEEE
802.3u. The TCP/IP network protocol and the associated network services are
preconfigured.
To be able to exchange data within a local area network (LAN), every computer or
instrument that is connected must have a unique IP address or a unique computer
name.
You can use the interface e.g. for the following:
● Transferring data
● Printing on network printers
● Controlling the R&S ETC from a remote computer (see the remote control manual)
● Using the R&S ETC View software (see the software manual)

Connecting the Instrument to the Network

Risk of network failure/virus infection
Before connecting the R&S ETC to the network or configuring the network, do the
following:
● Consult your network administrator.
● If your network does not support DHCP or if you choose to disable dynamic
TCP/IP configuration, you must assign valid address information before
connecting the R&S ETC to the LAN.
Errors may affect the entire network.
Efficient virus protection is a prerequisite for secure operation in the network.
Never connect the R&S ETC to a network without proper protection against a
virus infection, as doing so may cause damage to the R&S ETC software.
Setting up the connection does not cause any problems on the network. Likewise,
disconnecting the R&S ETC from the network does not cause any problems as long as
no data traffic to and from the R&S ETC is in progress.
