Identify the instrument
If you have a bank of instruments, you can click the ID button to determine which one you are
communicating with.
To identify the instrument:
In the middle of the left side of the Home page, click the ID button.
The button turns green and the LAN status indicator on the instrument blinks.
Click the ID button again to return the button to its original color and return the LAN status indicator to
steady on.
LXI Home page
The LXI Home page displays instrument information, including the host name, MAC address, and
VISA resource string. You cannot change the information from this page.
You can use the host name instead of the IP address to connect to the instrument.
It also includes the ID button, which you can use to identify the instrument. See Identify the
instrument (on page 2-84).
Change the IP configuration through the web interface
You can change the LAN settings, such as IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS address,
through the web page of the instrument.
If you change the IP address through the web page, the web page will try to redirect to the IP address
that is configured in the instrument. In some cases, this may fail. This generally happens if you switch
from IP address assignment that uses a static address to IP address assignment that uses a DHCP
server. If this happens, you need to revert to either using the front panel to set the IP address or use
an automatic discovery tool to determine the new IP address.
You can also change the IP configuration through the front panel or with TSP and SCPI commands.
See Set up LAN communications on the instrument (on page 2-73) for information.
