Section 3: Using a remote interface
Supported remote interfaces
The DAQ6510 supports the following remote interfaces:
•
Ethernet: Built-in local area network (LAN) ethernet communications.
•
USB: Built-in USB communications port (Type B).
•
GPIB: IEEE-488 instrumentation general purpose interface bus.
•
RS-232: Serial communication data standard.
TSP-Link: A high-speed trigger synchronization and communications bus that test system
•
builders can use to connect multiple instruments in a master-and-subordinate configuration.
The GPIB, RS-232, and TSP-Link interfaces require an optional communications accessory.
For details about TSP-Link, see "TSP-Link System Expansion Interface" in the Model DAQ6510
Reference Manual.
LAN communications
You can communicate with the instrument using a local area network (LAN).
When you connect using a LAN, you can use a web browser to access the internal web page of the
instrument and change some of the instrument settings. For more information, see
interface
(on page 3-15).
The DAQ6510 is an LXI version 1.5 Core 2016 compliant instrument that supports TCP/IP and
complies with IEEE Std 802.3 (ethernet LAN). There is one LAN port (located on the rear panel of the
instrument) that supports full connectivity on a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps network. The DAQ6510
automatically detects the speed.
The DAQ6510 also supports Multicast DNS (mDNS) and DNS Service Discovery (DNS-SD), which
are useful on a LAN with no central administration.
