Getting Started
Connecting the LAN Cable
LAN cables are connected between the LAN terminal on the instrument
and the computer, or between the instrument and a router or switch if
included in your network.
Private Network Connections
The figure below shows typical LAN cable connections for a private
network.
Figure 24
Typical Private (isolated) LAN Network Connections
If the instrument is connected directly to the PC, use a LAN crossover
cable, as provided with the instrument. If your computer supports Auto-
MDIX or contains a LAN card with gigabit data transfer rates, the (blue)
crossover cable is not required. A standard LAN cable can be used
instead.
For private LAN networks that include a switch or router, use standard
LAN cables for all network connections. Do not use a crossover cable.
Site Network Connections
The following figure shows a typical LAN cable connection for a site
network.
