LAN speeds

Another characteristic of the LAN is speed. The 2606B negotiates with the host computer and other
LXI-compliant devices on the LAN to transmit data at the highest speed possible. LAN speeds must
be configured to match the speed of the other instruments on the network.
To set the LAN speed:
1. From the virtual front panel, press the MENU key and select LAN > CONFIG > SPEED.
2. Turn the navigation wheel to select either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.
3. Press the ENTER key.
4. Press the EXIT (LOCAL) key once to return to the previous menu.
5. Select APPLY_SETTINGS > YES, and then press the ENTER key.

Duplex mode

The duplex mode is based on the LAN configuration. There are two settings:
•
Half-duplex: Allows communications in both directions, but only one direction is active at a time
(not simultaneously).
•
Full: Permits communications in both directions simultaneously.
To set the duplex mode:
1. From the virtual front panel, press MENU key and select LAN > CONFIG > DUPLEX.
2. Turn the navigation wheel to select either HALF or FULL.
3. Press the ENTER key.
4. Press the EXIT (LOCAL) key once to return to the LAN CONFIG menu.
5. Select APPLY_SETTINGS > YES, and then press the ENTER key.
