Dear Zah,

I understand that you are facing issues with Controlling your Anritsu MS46112B VNA via USB Port. You can refer to the below documentation for more information on supported anritsu devices:

https://www.mathworks.com/products/instrument/supported/anritsu.html

You will also require Instrument Control Toolbox for controlling VNA via USB.

You can refer to the below documentation for connecting the device using VISA:

https://in.mathworks.com/help/instrument/visadev.html

Furthermore, you can search for devices using the following code:

resourceList = visadevlist

%Create a connection to the first resource over the VISA-USB interface using the resource name.
usbdev = visadev("USB0::0x0699::0x036A::CU010105::0::INSTR")

Please refer to the below documentation for more information on Anritsu Instruments and Instrument Control Toolbox:

• https://in.mathworks.com/products/instrument/supported/anritsu.html
• https://dl.cdn-anritsu.com/en-us/test-measurement/files/Application-Notes/Application-Note/MS269xA_EF6101.pdf

I hope this helps!
