Lan Configuration - Keysight N432A Programming Manual

1 N432A Remote Operation
Your GPIB bus controller has its own address. Avoid using the bus controller
address for any instrument on the interface bus. Keysight Technologies's
controllers generally use address 21.
For information on setting the GPIB address manually from the front panel, refer
to the N432A Thermistor Power Meter Installation Guide.
– To set the GPIB address from the remote interface, use the

LAN configuration

The N432A has three LAN operating modes:
– Dynamic IP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol or DHCP)
– Auto IP (Local PC control or isolated (non-site) LAN)
– Static IP (Manual mode)
These three modes can be set up from the front panel. For front panel operation,
refer to the N432A Thermistor Power Meter Installation Guide.
Configuring the LAN remotely
To automatically configure the LAN settings, enable DHCP operation using the
SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:DHCP[:STATe] <boolean> command.
In this dynamic IP mode, the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway values
are obtained from a DHCP server. Using this dynamic IP mode does not require a
detailed knowledge of your network configuration.
The IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, domain name, and host settings
can be changed manually or remotely. To individually specify the LAN settings,
use the following commands:
– IP address – SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:ADDRess <character_data>
– Subnet mask – SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:SMASk <character_data>
– Default gateway – SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:DGATeway <character_data>

SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB[:SELF]:ADDRess <numeric_value>
command.
SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB[:SELF]:ADDRess? query.
"SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB[:SELF]:ADDRess <numeric_value>"
