Chapter 3 Features and Functions
Remote Interface Configuration
Remote Interface Configuration
This section gives information on configuring the function generator for
remote interface communication. For information on configuring the
instrument from the front panel, see "To Configure the Remote
Interface" starting on page 46. For information on the SCPI commands
available to program the function generator over the remote interface,
see chapter 4, Remote Interface Reference, starting on page 145.
The Keysight 33210A supports remote interface communication using a
choice of three interfaces: GPIB, USB, and LAN. All three interfaces are
"live" at power up. This section describes some interface configuration
parameters that you may need to set on your function generator.
• GPIB Interface. You need only set the GPIB address for the
function generator and connect it to your PC using a GPIB cable.
• USB Interface. There is nothing to configure on your function
generator. Just connect the function generator to the PC with a USB
cable.
• LAN Interface. By default, DHCP is On, which may enable network
communication over the LAN interface. You may need to set several
configuration parameters as described in the LAN configuration
sections that follow.
