Direct Pc Connection (Dhcp Mode); Assigning A Static Ip Address - Holzworth Instrumentation HSX Series User Manual

6.3.2 DIRECT PC CONNECTION (DHCP MODE)

When the HSX9000 is connected directly to a PC and it is set to DHCP, the instrument's
default IP address is:
This IP address can be used to establish communication with the HSX9000 when
connected directly.

6.3.3 ASSIGNING A STATIC IP ADDRESS

The most efficient way to assign the instrument a static IP address is to use the Console
in the Holzworth GUI. The Console can be used to send the commands from Appendix
B which are used to change the instrument from DHCP to Static, set the static IP, etc.
Users must first establish a USB connection or a direct Ethernet connection as
referenced in section 8.2 and 8.3.2, respectively.
Once a connection has been established, the Console can be launched by clicking the
Console button which is shown in the GUI Overview section, section 8.1. Now users can
begin sending the ASCII commands from Appendix B. The commands should be sent in
the order shown in the list and the Console screenshot below.
1. Send the command to change the static IP address.
•
:IP:ADDR:<value>
2. Send the command to change the subnet address.
•
:IP:SUBNET:<value>
3. Send the command to change the gateway if necessary.
•
:IP:GATEWAY:<value>
4. Send the command to change from DHCP to Static.
•
:IP:STATUS:STATIC
5. Power cycle the instrument when prompted.
When the instrument fully powers back on (5-10 second power up) it will come up with
the static IP settings and can be connected to the LAN.
