Introduction

1 Introduction

With the R&S ZNXSIM Vector Network Analyzer PC Simulation you can have all the functions of a R&S ZNA, R&S ZNB, R&S ZNB or R&S ZND on your desktop – always accessible, even when you do not have access to the hardware.
The same software that runs on the instrument (firmware) is used to run the simulation.
The R&S ZNA firmware simulates all available R&S ZNA models. It can be instal­led in parallel with a R&S ZNB or R&S ZND firmware, but only one of them can be run at a time.
The R&S ZNB firmware can be run as R&S ZNB, R&S ZNBT, or R&S ZND (see
Figure 4-1). It also comprises the documentation for all these instruments.
The R&S ZND firmware can also simulate a R&S ZNB or R&S ZNBT, but only com­prises the R&S ZND docs. Because R&S ZNB and R&S ZND firmware cannot be installed in parallel, only install the R&S ZND firmware if you are not interested in simulating a R&S ZNB or R&S ZNBT.

2 Installation

This section explains how to install a R&S ZNA, R&S ZNB/BT or R&S ZND simulation on your PC.
System requirements
The firmware requires 64-bit Windows (Windows 10 or Windows 7) with administrative privileges during installation.
1. Download the latest instrument firmware installer from the R&S ZNXSIM firmware
website (https://www.rohde-schwarz.com/firmware/znxsim).
2. Run the firmware installer and follow its instructions. Provide your admin credentials, if requested by the Windows user account control ("Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device" under Windows
10). Also please accept the installation of Rohde & Schwarz device software.
