Remote command:
Set Hardware Immediately
Determines when the remote commands that change hardware settings on the
R&S
FSV/A are executed.
If enabled (default), remote commands are always executed immediately when they
are received by the instrument.
If disabled, remote commands that cause changes to the hardware are only executed
when an appropriate command is executed explicitely.
Regardless of this setting, the firmware automatically sets the hardware when a sweep
is started.
Postponing hardware changes is useful, for example, when switching measurement
channels. When you switch channels, the settings from the previous channel are used
by default. However, if you have to change the frequency and level values for the new
channel measurement, the default settings cause unnecessary hardware settling
times.
This setting is not changed by the preset function.

Compatibility Settings
The R&S
FSV/A can emulate the GPIB interface of other signal and spectrum ana-
lyzers, e.g. in order to use existing control applications.
Compatibility with former R&S signal and spectrum analyzers
As a rule, the R&S
FSV/A supports most commands from previous R&S signal and
spectrum analyzers such as the FSQ, FSP, FSU, or FSV. However, the default values,
in particular the number of sweep points or particular bandwidths, may vary. Therefore,
the R&S
FSV/A can emulate these other devices, including their default values, in
order to repeat previous measurements or support existing control applications as in
legacy systems.
The required settings are configured in the "Compatibility" tab of the "Network
+Remote" dialog box.
