Software Installation & Update
Installing/Updating the Agilent E4873A User Software
NOTE:
The administrator password DVTADM is set from the factory. When the Agilent 81200 System will
be connected to the local network it is highly recommended to change this password.
After logging in the first time the Agilent 81200 Configuration window pops up which allows defining
your preferred operating mode.
If the Agilent 81200 Application should start automatically after logon enable "Yes" in the 'Start
Automatically" field.
Start the application by pressing the Agilent 81200 User Software Icon.
For more details on how to configure your system for first time usage please refer to
System" on page
Using a different Controller
If you are using the Agilent 81200 modules in a VXI system controlled by a non-HP or Agilent
controller, make sure that you have installed the appropriate I/O library for this controller. Please use
the documentation coming with this controller.
Standalone or Connecting to the LAN
Please contact your network administrator for the necessary information, if you are connecting the
system to your local area network.
If the system is not connected to the LAN make sure that the network is configured as follow:
• IP Address:
• Subnet Mask:
• Default Gateway:
• Domain:
Updating the Firmware (BIOS)
If you have upgraded from a previous version, the new Agilent E4873A User Software may be
incompatible with the firmware version installed in your modules.
Starting the Agilent E4873A User Software checks whether a firmware update is necessary as long as
this check is activated. Starting the User Software the first time after an update automatically launches
the Agilent 81200 Configuration Window. Please make sure, that the "Check Module Version" option
is activated to ensure an automatic version test each time you are starting the system.
If a version conflict is detected a window pops up letting you know that a firmware update is highly
recommended. Please press the OK button.
After the firmware update it proceeds with starting the new application software.
NOTE:
For downgrading the BIOS to be used with a previous User Software version refer to the Agilent
81200 Support page on the web.
