First-Time Power Up Considerations

N O T E

The first time you turn on the logic analyzer, the Windows® Welcome session starts. Your logic analyzer configuration and the answers to the Windows Welcome questions are affected by how you choose to use the logic analyzer.

Use the Enter and arrow keys on the attached keyboard. The logic analyzer front-panel keys do not work until Windows is running.

Determine Whether the Instrument will be Connected to the Network

N O T E

If you plan to use COM automation to programmatically control a logic analyzer from a

remote computer, be aware that the remote computer and the logic analyzer must both

 

 

have the same kind of network membership; that is, they must both be members of a

 

"Workgroup", or they must both be members of a "Domain". This is due to the security

 

requirements of Distributed COM.

 

 

 

Standalone

 

You are going to use the logic analyzer as a standalone instrument (no LAN

 

connection). Printing requires a printer attached to the logic analyzer, sharing

 

files is done via USB flash drive or floppy disk.

 

Connected to a Network

 

If you require the ability to print, share files, remotely control the logic

 

analyzer, etc. over the network, you need to either join a workgroup or

 

domain.

Get Network Setup Information

For networking, find out whether the network that your instrument will be connected to uses the Microsoft Workgroup model or Microsoft Domain model. In order for your instrument to perform tasks over the network (print, transfer files, etc.) your instrument must be configured appropriately for the networking model in use at your site.
