Set up LAN communications on the computer

This section describes how to set up the LAN communications on your computer.
Do not change your IP address without consulting your system administrator. If you enter an
incorrect IP address, it can prevent your computer from connecting to your corporate network or it
may cause interference with another networked computer.
Record all network configurations before modifying any existing network configuration information on
the network interface card. Once the network configuration settings are updated, the previous
information is lost. This may cause a problem reconnecting the host computer to a corporate network,
particularly if DHCP is disabled.
Be sure to return all settings to their original configuration before reconnecting the host computer to a
corporate network. Contact your system administrator for more information.
Verify the LAN connection on the DMM7510
Make sure that your DMM7510 is connected to the network by confirming that your instrument was
assigned an IP address.
To verify the LAN connection:
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Under System, select Communication.
3. Select the LAN tab.
A green LAN status indicator on the lower left of the LAN tab confirms that your instrument was
assigned an IP address.
In addition, the green LAN LED on the upper right of the front panel is on when your instrument is
connected to the network.
