PARITY
This control sets the parity check polarity when the Data Bits control specifies that a
parity bit should be used. It should be set to match the setting of the controlling
computer.
Pressing the Previous Menu key returns control to the Configuration Menu, and
pressing the Communications Monitor key accesses the Communications Monitor
display.
When the Configuration menu is displayed, pressing a key adjacent to the Ethernet
Settings item accesses the Ethernet Settings menu, which is shown in figure 5-23.
This menu has one control, five keys to access other menus, and four indicators for
the Ethernet computer interface, as follows:-
IP Address Assignment
This control has two settings, as follows:-
MANUAL
When set to manual, the IP address of the instrument is set manually, using the
IP Address control on this menu.
AUTOMATIC
In automatic mode, if the instrument is connected to a network with a DHCP
server then it will adopt the address given to it be the server. The address is then
shown in the IP Address field of this menu, which now functions only as an
indicator.
IP Address
Subnet Mask
Default Gateway
These three menu items behave in a similar way.
When the IP Address Assignment control is set to Manual, they allow access to
corresponding setup menus, similar to the IP Address Setup menu, shown below in
figure 5-24. Use the arrow keys or the numeric keypad to enter the required address
and then press Previous Menu to return to the Ethernet Settings menu.
