The analyzer can be controlled in two alternative ways:
With a Remote Desktop connection through a Local Area Network.
To start the analyzer, proceed as follows:
Make sure that the instrument is connected to the AC power supply and the power switch on the rear panel is in position I (On).
If necessary, press the STANDBY toggle switch on the front panel to switch the instrument to ready state (the green LED is on).
In ready state, the analyzer automatically performs a system check, boots the Windows XP operating system and then starts the network analyzer (NWA) application. If the last analyzer session was terminated regularly, the NWA application uses the last setup with all instrument settings.
To shut down the analyzer, proceed as follows:
Press the STANDBY key to save the current setup, close the NWA application, shut down Windows XP and set the instrument to standby state. Of course you can also perform this procedure step by step like in any Windows session.
If desired, set the AC power switch to position 0 (Off).

Attention! It is strongly recommended to switch the analyzer to standby state before disconnecting it from the AC supply. If you set the power switch to 0 while the NWA application is still running, you will lose the current settings. Moreover, loss of program data can not be excluded if the application is terminated improperly. |
With a minimized
NWA application, you can access your analyzer's Windows®
desktop or run other applications (see Control
Menu).
To start the NWA application with a minimized window on a continuing basis,
right-click the NWA shortcut icon on the desktop and open the Properties
dialog. In the Shortcut tab,
select Run: Minimized.
After a software update the NWA application is started with a maximized window again. Moreover, if a second NWA application is started after a first, minimized application, this will cause the first application to come to the foreground.
