Step 5 - Testing the Equipment Connections

Start the Signal Studio software.
Establish communications between the software and the instrument by first selecting New hardware configuration in the Welcome to Agilent Signal Studio for 3GPP W-CDMA dialog box (System Configuration Wizard) that appears.
Select OK and follow the remaining prompts. (Be prepared to enter the instrument's IP/GPIB address.)

If you are running Signal Studio on the PXB, use “localhost” in the Hostname/IP Address field in Step 4 of the System Configuration Wizard.
If you are running Signal Studio on a PC connected to the PXB, use the PXB's address (LAN/GPIB) or hostname (LAN only) :
hostname: click System > Product Information and view the Machine Name row
IP address: click System > Product Information and view the IP Address row
GPIB address: click System > GPIB
If you are running Signal Studio on a PC connected to a signal generator, refer to the following table to locate the instrument's address (LAN/GPIB) or hostname (LAN only):

Connection	Signal Generator	Key Path
LAN	ESG PSG	Utility > GPIB/RS-232 LAN > LAN Setup
GPIB	ESG PSG	Utility > GPIB/RS-232 LAN > GPIB Address
Signal Studio accepts either the LAN address or hostname. So if you want to use the hostname, just enter the hostname into the software's Hostname/IP Address field. There is no need to access the web interface unless there is a need for the IP address.

If the connection fails or for help with error messages, refer to Troubleshooting.

After making the connection, you can view the instrument's information by selecting Hardware in the tree view
