The R&S ScopeSuite software is used with R&S RTO/RTO6/RTP oscilloscopes. It can
be installed on a test computer or directly on the oscilloscope. For system requirements, refer to the Release Notes.
R&S ScopeSuite Overview
The R&SScopeSuite main panel has several areas:
●
"Settings": connection settings to oscilloscope and other instruments also default
report settings
●
"Compliance Tests": selection of the compliance test
●
"Demo": accesses demo test cases that can be used for trying out the software
without having a connection to an oscilloscope
●
"Help": opens the help file, containing information about the R&S ScopeSuite configuration
●
"About": gives information about the R&SScopeSuite software
●
"Tile View": allows a personalization of the compliance test selection
You can configure which tests are visible in the compliance test section and which
are hidden, so that only the ones you use are displayed.
► To hide a test from the "Compliance Tests" view, do one of the following:

2Preparing the Measurements
2.1Test Equipment
For eMMC compliance tests, the following test equipment is needed:
●
R&SRTO/RTO6/RTP oscilloscope with at least 1GHz bandwidth
●
A probe with at least 1.5GHz bandwidth
●
R&S RTO/RTO6/RTP-K92 eMMC compliance test option (required option, installed
on the R&S RTO/RTO6/RTP)
●
The free-of-charge R&S ScopeSuite software, which can be installed on a computer or directly on the R&S RTO/RTO6/RTP.
2.2Installing Software and License
Preparing the Measurements
Installing Software and License
The preparation steps are performed only once for each computer and instrument that
are used for testing.
Uninstall older versions of the R&S ScopeSuite
If an older version of the R&S ScopeSuite is installed, make sure to uninstall the old
version before you install the new one. You can find the version number of the current
installation in "Help" menu > "About". To uninstall the R&S ScopeSuite, use the Windows " Control Panel" > "Programs".
For best operation results, we recommend that the installed firmware versions of the
R&S ScopeSuite and the oscilloscope are the same.
To install the R&S ScopeSuite
1. Download the latest R&S ScopeSuite software from the "Software" section on the
Rohde & Schwarz R&S RTO/RTO6/RTP website:
For system requirements, refer to the Release Notes.
To install the license key on the R&S RTO/RTO6/RTP
► When you got the license key of the compliance test option, enable it on the oscil-
loscope using [Setup] > "SW Options".

"Installing Options", or to the online help on the instrument.
2.3Setting Up the Network
If the R&S ScopeSuite software runs on a test computer, the computer and the testing
oscilloscope require a LAN connection.
There are two ways of connection:
●
LAN (local area network): It is recommended that you connect to a LAN with DHCP
server. This server uses the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to
assign all address information automatically.
If no DHCP server is available, or if the Tabor WX2182B or WX2182C is used for
automatic testing, assign fixed IP addresses to all devices.
●
Direct connection of the instruments and the computer or connection to a switch
using LAN cables: Assign fixed IP addresses to the computer and the instruments
and reboot all devices.
Starting the R&S
ScopeSuite
To set up and test the LAN connection
1. Connect the computer and the instruments to the same LAN.
2. Start all devices.
3. If no DHCP server is available, assign fixed IP addresses to all devices.
4. Ping the instruments to make sure that the connection is established.
5. If VISA is installed, check if VISA can access the instruments.
a) Start VISA on the test computer.
b) Validate the VISA address string of each device.

available in the R&S ScopeSuite.
If the R&S ScopeSuite software runs on a test computer, the computer and the testing
oscilloscope require a LAN connection, see Chapter 2.3, "Setting Up the Network",
on page 10. The R&S ScopeSuite software needs the IP address of the oscilloscope to
establish connection.
1. Start the R&S RTO/RTO6/RTP.
2. Start the R&S ScopeSuite software.
3. Click "Settings" > "Oscilloscope".

6. A step-by step guide explains the following individual setup steps. When you have
finished all steps of the step-by-step guide, the compliance test runs automatically.
4.2Connecting Probes to the DUT
In order to get precise test results, it is important to consider the experimental setup.
Special care should be taken when connecting the probes to the DUT as the connection may affect the resulting measurement bandwidth. Especially when doing measurements in the HS400 Mode with data rates of up to 400 MBit/s you should make sure
that the measurement signal bandwidth of 1 GHz is available. Smaller measurement
bandwidth may lead to incorrect results.
There are different solutions you can use for connecting the probes to the DUT such as
flexible sockets, special interposers or dedicated measurement points. It is important to
consider during the design of your DUT.
4.3HS200 CLK Test
4.3.1Purpose
The purpose of CLK test case is to verify bus signal levels and timing requirements
specific to eMMC device clock signal.
