Ethernet Configuration On The Lmr Master; Lan Connection - Anritsu S412E User Manual

6-3 Ethernet Configuration on the LMR Master

4. Configure the computer for direct Ethernet connection:
a. On the computer running MST, double-click on the local area connection
associated with Ethernet crossover cable connection (Start menu > Settings >
Network Connections > Local Area Connection x).
b. Click on the Properties button, then double-click on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
c. Select Use the following IP address (or Alternate Configuration) and enter the
following information:
IP: 10.0.0.1
Gateway: 10.0.0.1
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
d. Close all the open windows and restart the computer and the Anritsu
instrument.
5. Open Master Software Tools, press the Network tab then the Query Network for
Instruments button. Double-click on the instrument to complete the connection. The
instrument model and IP address (10.0.0.2) along with a green connection icon will be
displayed at the top of the MST window.
6-3 Ethernet Configuration on the LMR Master

LAN Connection

The RJ-45 connector is used to connect the LMR Master to a local area network. Integrated
into this connector are two LEDs. The amber LED shows the status of the Ethernet Link:
Link Up (On) or Link Down (Off). The green LED flashes to show that LAN traffic is present.
The instrument IP address is set by pressing the Shift key, then the System (8) key followed
by the System Options soft key and the Ethernet Config soft key. The instrument Ethernet
address can be set automatically using DHCP, or manually by entering the desired IP
address, gateway address, and subnet mask.
An active Ethernet cable may need to be connected to the instrument before it is
turned ON in order to enable the Ethernet port for DHCP or for a static IP address.
Depending upon local conditions, the port may remain enabled when changing
Note from DHCP to static IP address, when changing from static IP address to DHCP,
or when temporarily disconnecting the Ethernet cable.
If the port becomes disabled, ensure that an active Ethernet cable is attached to
the instrument before cycling the power OFF and back ON.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an Internet protocol that automates the
process of setting IP addresses for devices that use TCP/IP, and is the most common method
of configuring a device for network use. To determine if a network is set up for DHCP, connect
the S412E to the network and select DHCP protocol in the Ethernet Config menu.
Turn the LMR Master off, and then on. If the network is set up for DHCP, the assigned IP
address should be displayed briefly after the power up sequence.
