When using the Ethernet interface, the analyzer can be connected to any standard
10BaseT or 100BaseT Ethernet network via low-cost network hubs, switches or routers.
The interface operates as a standard TCP/IP device on port 3000. This allows a remote
computer to connect through the network to the analyzer using APICOM, terminal
emulators or other programs.
The Ethernet connector has two LEDs that are on the connector itself, indicating its
current operating status.

The analyzer is shipped with DHCP enabled by default. This allows the instrument to be
connected to a network or router with a DHCP server. The instrument will automatically
be assigned an IP address by the DHCP server (Section 6.5.2). This configuration is
useful for quickly getting an instrument up and running on a network. However, for
permanent Ethernet connections, a static IP address should be used. Section 6.5.1 below
details how to configure the instrument with a static IP address.
To configure Ethernet communication manually:
1. Connect a cable from the analyzer's Ethernet port to a Local Area Network (LAN) or
Internet port.
2. From the analyzer's front panel touchscreen, access the Communications Menu
(SETUP>MORE>COMM, see Figure 5-2).
3. Enter the INET menu shown in Figure 6-4, turning DHCP mode to OFF and editing
the Instrument and Gateway IP addresses and Subnet Mask to the desired settings
(default settings showin in Table 6-3).
Alternatively, from the computer, enter the same information through an application
such as HyperTerminal.
