Configuring for Remote Control

Configuring for Remote Control

GPIB Interface Configuration

1.Press Utility > GPIB/RS-232 LAN > GPIB Address.

2.Use the numeric keypad to set the desired address and press Enter.

The arrow keys or the front panel knob can be used to set the desired address.

The signal generator’s GPIB address is set to 19 at the factory. The acceptable range of addresses is 0 through 30. The GPIB address is a persistent state; it is not affected by a signal generator preset or by a power cycle.

LAN Interface Configuration

Use one of the following procedures to assign a hostname and IP address to the signal generator. The hostname and IP address are persistent states; they are not affected by an instrument preset or a power cycle.

NOTE

Verify that the signal generator is connected to the LAN using a 10BASE-T LAN cable.

 

 

Manual Configuration

1.Press Utility > GPIB/RS-232 LAN > LAN Setup.

2.Press Hostname.

NOTE

Hostname field will only be available when the DHCP is off (Manual mode).

 

 

3.Use the labeled text softkeys and/or numeric keypad to enter the desired hostname. To erase the current hostname, press Editing Keys > Clear Text.

4.Press Enter.

5.Set LAN Config Manual DHCP to Manual.
