Page 4: Description
Description The local area network (LAN) option can be used to perform remote control, measurement, and status check on the PAV series. The PAV can be controlled from a PC web browser through the web interface embedded in the PAV. Automatic control and measurement applications can be created using the standard network protocol and measurement commands. - Page 5 1. Description Features Front panel • IP address and MAC address can be verified from the front panel. • IP address can be assigned from the front panel. • LAN reset can be performed from the front panel. • Users can remotely control the blinking of the front panel display to identify which PAV is being controlled in a rack.

LAN configuration 2. Network Connection Control functions that can be used simultaneously with LAN On a PAV with LAN, you can use local mode and external control simultaneously with LAN. However, LAN cannot be used simultaneously with serial communication (USB/RS232/ RS485) remote mode. -
Page 11: Lan Connection
LAN Connection Starting a connection A PAV with LAN automatically determines whether a network connection is available. Then, it automatically detects a network server and receives an IP address assignment or assigns an IP address to itself. Further, it sends its IP address and host name to other devices in the net- work. - Page 12 LAN Connection 2. Network Connection Changing the IP address You can change all four numbers (octets) of the IP address from the front panel. An IP address has four numbers (e.g., 10.97.4.4). Set each number in the range of 1 to 254. Turn the CURRENT knob.
-
Page 13: Checking The Host Name
(p.28) For example, if you set the host name to “KIKUSUI,” you can send commands also to “KIKU- SUI.” After a LAN reset (p.14), the PAV is automatically assigned with a host name made up of a combination of the model name and serial number. -
Page 14: Lan Reset
LAN Connection 2. Network Connection LAN reset The LAN reset function returns the LAN parameters to their factory default values. Press REM. Turn the VOLTAGE knob until the voltmeter shows “rSt.” Press the VOLTAGE knob. The ammeter shows “rSt.” Press the CURRENT knob. The system is reset. -
Page 15: Rs485 Multi-Drop Connection
RS485 Multi-Drop Connection Description Up to 30 PAVs without LAN can be connected to a PAV with LAN. An IP address is assigned to the PAV with LAN, and the other PAVs without LAN can connect to the LAN through the PAV with LAN. -
Page 16: Lan Connections
RS485 Multi-Drop Connection 2. Network Connection LAN connections The PAV connected to LAN is called the master unit. Configuring the master unit Connect the master unit to the LAN. Using RS485 link cables, connect J4-OUT to J4-IN on the rear panel of each PAV. -
Page 17: Rs485 Connection
2. Network Connection RS485 Multi-Drop Connection RS485 connection PAVs configured for RS485 connection are called slave units. Each slave unit sends or receive commands independently through the master unit’s LAN port. Configuring the RS485 multi-drop connection Using an RS485 link cable, connect the J4-OUT connector of the master unit to the J4-IN connector of a slave unit. -

Page 38: Control Using An Ivi Driver
Appendix KI-VISA KI-VISA is an original VISA library developed by Kikusui Electronics Corporation that sup- ports the VXIplug&play VISA specifications. It is included in the CD-ROM. You can also download the most recent version of this library from the Kikusui Electronics Corporation website (http://www.kikusui.co.jp/en/download/). -
Page 39: Socket Communication
Socket Communication The PAV LAN VISA driver is a typical driver in the testing and measurement field. However, you may not be able to use VISA due to installation or license issues or because the control- ler does not support VISA (e.g., industrial PLC). If you cannot use the VISA driver, you can use the socket communication feature of the PAV. - Page 40 Socket Communication Appendix Input buffer request In communication with a controller using a TCP or UDP socket, the PAV can receive com- mands continuously. The commands are processed one by one. To prevent the PAV internal processing from overloading, design the controller so that it not only sends commands but also queries from time to time to wait for responses from the PAV.
