DHCP
Options include:
- ON
- OFF
To communicate using the Ethernet interface, the user can choose to trun on the DHCP
function.
If set DHCP to be ON but failed due to network connection, DHCP will change to OFF
automatically and all other parameters, such as IP address, subnet mask, default
gateway, etc., will be set to the last static address.
IP Address
The user can set manually the IP address of the Instrument when the DHCP is set to
OFF.
The IP address is in "dotted decimal" notation and consists of 4 segment of numbers,
each with a value of 0 to 255. The IP address must follow the network address setting
specifications and must not be 000.000.000.000.
To set the IP address, use left and right buttons (O P) to select the number segment to
be edited, and then enter a number from 0 to 255 using the numeric keypad on the
front panel.
After completing the input, press D (OK) to confirm, or E (Cancel) to discard
the modification.
If the number entered is greater than 255, the screen will display "LAN address is
invalid". At this point, press D (OK) to return and repeat the process above to enter
a correct IP address.
Subnet Mask
The user can set manually the IP address of the Instrument when the DHCP is set to
OFF. At this time, the subnet mask must be set too.
The setting process of subnet mask is the same as that of IP address, see above.
Default Gateway:
Please refer to the setting process of IP address or subnet mask.
Port
Set the network port number of the PC used for LAN communication. The default is
1500.
Check the setting on the PC and change the firewall setting if necessary to allow
communication through this port. Consult your system administrator for more details.
MAC Address
The unique address number of the network card of the Instrument, for reference only
and cannot be modified.
