If the R&S MXO 5 is connected to a computer via LAN, you can operate the instrument
from the computer. No additional tools are required, you need only a web browser.

The connection status icon in the upper right corner indicates the status of the LAN
connection. A green icon indicates that the instrument is connected to the LAN; a red
symbol indicates a connection error - mostly the LAN cable is not connected.
The "Network" tab of the "System" dialog box provides network information and set-
tings. See Chapter 5.1.2, "Network settings", on page 70.

ing DNS host names and the VISA resource string.
