RTO.connect(address: str = '', hislip: bool = False, timeout: float = 1000.0) → bool

Connects to and initializes the R&S RTO oscilloscope.

HiSLIP (High-Speed LAN Instrument Protocol) is a TCP/IP-based protocol for remote instrument control of LAN-based test and measurement instruments. It is intended to replace the older VXI-11 protocol.

Warning

The HiSLIP protocol is not supported when using the pyvisa-py backend on the client machine. To use it, you must use the NI VISA implementation instead.

Parameters:

addressstr

The IP address of the instrument.

hislipbool, optional

Whether to use the HiSLIP protocol or not (default False).

timeoutint, optional

The device response timeout in milliseconds (default 1 ms). Pass None for infinite timeout.
