Programming Fundamentals
Using the LAN to Control the Instrument
Using HP/Agilent VEE Over Socket LAN
To control your instrument via socket LAN using VEE, click on the VEE
menu titled "I/O." Then select "To/From Socket" and position the I/O
object box on the screen. Fill in the following fields:
Connect Port:
Host Name:
Timeout:
For faster troubleshooting, you may want to set the timeout to a
smaller number. If the host name you enter doesn't work, try using the
IP address of your instrument (example: 191.108.43.5). Using the IP
address rather than the hostname may also be faster. See
an example of an VEE screen.
NOTE
The hostname can be found under
Changing the host name in the instrument does not change your LAN
system's representation of the host name. You must work through your
local system administrator to change the host name on your LAN
system.
