Tiivistelmä
In the contemporary age, powerful measurement instruments are playing important roles in data measurement area. In the meantime, remote control instruments and process data have become a demand in the industry and education area. As remote control instrument could make instrument work under extreme environment that are not suitable for human beings, and developing of remote control software is inexpensive than hardware. In this thesis, my main focus are remote control of in-struments and acquiring data from instruments to computer.
The sample instrument is Rohde & Schwarz FSP Spectrum Analyser, and MATLAB is the software development platform. The structure of the paper is performed as following. At beginning, the background information has been provided, including details toward software, hardware and programming languages. Then, second part introduced the GUI design and instrument connecting method, as well as MATLAB Instrument Control Toolbox. The third part specified the program functions' purpose, including connecting, tracing and settings part. Furthermore, an AM signal analysing example has been made, the details contain connecting instrument, setting parameters, tracing data, and adding markers. Based on the work of thesis, we can use the program to control and set the instruments remotely and find out the convenience to perform data measuring and processing work with the help of MATLAB and contemporary communication technology.
