About this manual

The FSH-K1 remote control option adds PC‑based control to the Rohde & Schwarz FSH spectrum analyzer. The option is enabled by entering a ten‑digit key code derived from the instrument's serial number, after which the analyzer can be switched to remote state and controlled via software commands.

The manual explains how to connect a PC using the supplied USB (R&S FSH‑Z37) or RS‑232 (R&S FSH‑Z34) optical cables, install the USB driver, configure serial parameters, and use the SET, GET, and CMD command families. Programming examples in Visual Basic illustrate typical remote‑control sequences such as setting frequency, initiating presets, and retrieving trace data.
