Using the HP 16500L LAN Interface
The HP 16500L LAN Interface option for the HP 16500B extends the
Logic Analysis System by making it look like a NFS (Network File
System) node. Using NFS utilities for the PC or NFS on a UNIX
workstation, you can transfer files to and from the HP 16500B as if it
were a disk drive attached to your machine. The LAN Interface also
creates virtual directories and files for measurement configurations
and measurement results, so you can store and retrieve these as
though they were ordinary files.
This section shows you how to use the HP 16500L to do the following:
•
set up the HP 16500B configuration
•
retrieve measurement data from a module in the HP 16500B
•
transfer images of HP 16500B menu and result screens to your host
computer
If you have not connected your HP 16500B to the network, installed
network software, or learned basic network commands, see the
HP 16500L User's Guide and the HP 16500L System
Administrator's Guide before performing the tasks in this chapter.
