•SCPI LAN - Accesses the following keys:

Using System Features

Using Input/Output Configuration Keys

IP Address - Changes the IP (internet protocol) address, domain name and node (host) name for the instrument. The IP address of the instrument can be changed by entering a numeric address composed of numbers and decimal points.

Host Name - Displays the host name of the instrument. Pressing the key activates the alpha editor, which enables you to change the host name. However, this will not change your LAN system representation of the host name. You must work through your local system administrator to change the host name. Changing it in the instrument only changes the displayed information, it will not enable LAN access with the new name.

Subnet Mask - Changes the subnet mask of the instrument. The subnet mask is a 32-bit address mask used in IP networks to indicate the bits of an IP address that are used for the subnet address. The default address is 255.255.0.0 for a class B network.

SCPI LAN - Accesses the following keys:

Telnet Port - Turns on or off telnet programming over the LAN. This key only affects new connections, not existing connections. Enter the port number that you will use for your telnet connection to the transmitter tester. The default port number is 5023.

Socket Port - Turns on or off socket programming over the LAN. This key only affects new connections, not existing connections. Enter the port number that you will use for your socket connection to the transmitter tester. The default port number is 5025.

SICL Server - Accesses the following keys. These keys are provided for information only. The “value” of the settings cannot be changed.

Server - Indicates the on/off condition of the SICL IEEE 488.2 protocol LAN server.

Maximum Connections - Shows you the maximum number of connections that can be accessed simultaneously. The default is 5.

Instrument Name - Shows you the name (same as the remote SICL address) of your transmitter tester. The default is inst0.

Instrument Logical Unit - Shows you the unique integer assigned to your transmitter tester when using SICL LAN. The default is 8.

Emulated GPIB Name - Shows you the name (same as the remote SICL address) of the device used when communicating with your transmitter tester. The default is gpib7.

Emulated GPIB Logical Unit - Shows you the unique integer assigned to your device when it is being controlled using SICL LAN. The default is 8.
