32. Connect the voltmeter (+) lead to the pin 9 wire and the (–) lead to the pin 1
wire. The voltmeter should read about 4.7 V.
33. Remove the video signal from the SDI 1A connector to assert the ground
closure.
34. The voltmeter should now read a low voltage, below 0.5 V.
35. Record Pass or Fail for Ground Closure Alarm in the test record.
1. Connect the instrument's Ethernet port to a computer that has a web browser
installed. You can use a Local Area Network (LAN) to interconnect the
instrument and computer, or directly connect the instrument and computer
Ethernet ports. LAN interconnection is recommended as this simplifies
setting the IP address.
2. To interconnect with a LAN:
a. Connect both the instrument and the computer to LAN ports using
Ethernet cables.
b. Press the CONFIG button to display the Configuration menu.
c. Select Network Settings > IP Config Mode.
d. Select DHCP. In this mode the network will assign an IP address to the
instrument. The address fields should momentarily read "Waiting on
DHCP" before the assigned addresses appear.
3. To use a direct connection between the instrument and computer:
a. Connect the instrument and computer with an Ethernet cable. Either a
direct or crossover cable may be used.
b. Select compatible IP addresses for the instrument and computer. Either
or both addresses may be changed. A suggested approach is to set the
addresses the same for the first three fields, then setting the last field one
digit different. For example:
Instrument: 192.168.001.001
Computer: 192.168.001.002
NOTE.
On most Windows computers, using the command "ipconfig" in the
Command Prompt window will show the computer IP address value. It may be
manually set via Control Panel > Network Connections.
c. To change the IP address on the instrument, press CONFIG and select
Network Settings > IP Config Mode > Manual. Now select Network
Settings > IP Address. Use the left/right arrow keys to move the highlight
to each box in the address. Use the up/down arrow keys to change the
