Ethernet Configuration and Remote Programming
6.4.3.2 S IP
TATIC
1. Connect using a computer serial communications program such as Tera Term, set
for the same baud as Asterion DC power supply (Refer to Figure 6-5) no parity, 8
data bits, 1 stop bit. Refer section 4.2.2 for more details.
2. Turn OFF DHCP mode using the SCPI command, SYST:NET:DHCPMODE 0.
3. Set the IP address by typing SYST:NET:IP "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" <enter> (where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the new IP address). For example, to set 192.168.0.200 as the
IP address, type SYST:NET:IP "192.168.0.200" <enter>.
NOTE: The format requires a single space after SYST:NET:IP and double quotes
4. Set the subnet mask with SYST:NET:MASK xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx <enter>.
5. Set the gateway with SYST:NET:GATE xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx <enter>.
6. Type SYST:NET:APPLY <enter> to apply the Static IP configuration.
7. After configuring all settings, verify with the queries, SYST:NET:IP? <enter>.
8. SYST:NET:GATE? <enter> and SYST:NET:MASK? <enter>.
9. The Asterion DC power supply Ethernet hardware is now configured. Open Web
browser and enter the IP address of the power supply to view the Home page of
the power supply. Refer to Figure 6-10 .
10. Programming/Communication Via Ethernet
With the Ethernet option, there are three basic methods to communicate with the
power supply from a PC:
•
Raw socket interface, sending delimited strings
•
Application program that utilizes VXI-11 Discovery protocol
•
Web browser

Raw Socket Interface

6.4.4
The essential components of communicating via a raw socket interface are the socket
number, IP address and command delimiter. The default values are: socket = 52000,
IP address = 192.168.0.200 (when DHCP is disabled), and delimiter = line feed
<CRLF>. We can set the static IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway using web
browser (refer to Section 6.5.2) or the RS232C interface.
For convenience and to comply with the proposed
name is available on the home page of the power supply's Web server.
VXI-11 Protocol
6.4.5
With programs such as National Instrument's NI-VISA, the VXI-11 protocol allows the
power supply to be easily configured in a test system.
