Figure 2-9. Verifying a Communication Path to the Instrument.

The LAN Instrument window identifies the instrument’s host name, its IP address, its VISA address, and product number. Because the network server used in this example does not support Dynamic DNS, the host name is not reg- istered for use by the server. Thus, the instrument is accessed by its IP address.

Click on “Test Connection” or “Identify Instrument” to test the communication path to the instrument. Click on”OK” to add the configured instrument to your network.

Repeat the sequence of Figures 2- 7 through 2- 9 for each instrument. As instru- ments are added, they appear in the Agilent Connection Expert Explorer pane as shown in Figure 2- 10. Selecting the instrument in the Explorer pane dis- plays its properties in the Properties pane.
