Device Analysis Output
Furthermore, any warnings, errors or information concerning the device status that
may be available are displayed in the "Device Analysis Output" table. This table is
available on all tabs, at the bottom of the R&S
TSME Device Manager window.
Depending on their relevance, the messages are assigned to the following categories:
●
info
: information for the user, no action required
●
warning
: warning on behalf of the instrument - should be solved
●
error
: error on behalf of the instrument - must be solved before further operation
In case measurement problems occur with the R&S TSME6, check the "Device Analy-
sis Output" table for any errors that may have been detected. If available, a repair func-
tion is provided.

Changing IP addresses - "Network Configuration"
By default, each R&S TSME6 is delivered with the pre-configured IP address
192.168.0.2
. However, if multiple R&S TSME6s are connected to the same host PC,
each device must have a unique IP address.
You can change the IP address for the connected R&S TSME6s directly via the
R&S
TSME Device Manager.
If necessary, the LAN adapter settings on the host PC must also be adapted accord-
ingly to reconnect with the R&S TSME6 (see also
Chapter 3.1.5.1, "Setting up the LAN
on page 18). In particular, the host PC (LAN adapters)
must use the subnet in which the IP addresses of the R&S TSME6s are located.
Define the IP address in the "Network Configuration" tab of the R&S
TSME Device
Manager. The currently active IP address for the selected R&S TSME6 is displayed for
reference. It remains active until you select the "Accept Network Changes" button.
Auto IP Address
If "full auto-IP" operating mode is used, the "R&S
TSME Device Manager" shows an
extra field indicating the automatically generated IP address used for the connection to
the host (see
with example IP address:
169.254.233.79
).
In this case, the IP address stored in R&S TSME6 (here 192.168.0.2) is still used as an
identifier for the connection by the software applications, i.e. a kind of virtual IP
address.
If partial auto-IP operating mode or static IP operating mode is used, the "R&S
TSME
Device Manager" does not show this extra field and the IP address stored in the R&S
TSME6 is also the IP address used for the physical connection (in this example:
192.168.0.2
)
