Overview of Remote Control
LAN Remote Control System
Device selector
The device selector is a unique value assigned to each device that is used by
the controller to select the control target (to send/receive messages) among
devices connected on the GPIB remote control system.
The device selector consists of a select code (usually, 7) and a GPIB address.
For example, when the select code is 7 and the GPIB address is 17, the device
selector is 717. The select code must be individually set for each system. The
GPIB address must be set to a unique value for each device, and is used to
identify devices on the same system. In the description and sample programs
in this manual, it is assumed that the device selector is set to 717.

LAN Remote Control System
The LAN (Local Area Network) remote control system provides two methods:
controlling the E4981A using the SICL-LAN server and controlling the E4981A
using the telnet server.
System configuration
Use a LAN cable to connect the E4981A to the external controller (computer).
