    5.Communication with PC Using LAN Port Connect directly (1) Connection. Plug in the LAN cable to the LAN port in the back of the oscilloscope; plug the other end into the LAN interface of the computer. (2) Set the network parameters of the computer. Since the oscilloscope can not support obtaining an IP address automatically, you should assign a static IP address.

    5.Communication with PC (4) Set the network parameters of the oscilloscope. In the oscilloscope, push the Utility button. Select Function in the bottom menu. Select LAN Set in the left menu. In the bottom menu, set the Type item as LAN, and select Set. In the right menu, set IP and Port to the same value as the "Ports-settings"...

Run the software on the computer; choose the "Ports-settings" of the "Communications" menu item. Set "Connect using" to LAN. About the IP, the first three bytes is same as the IP in the step (2), the last byte should be different.

    6.Demonstration 6. Demonstration Example 1: Measurement a Simple Signal The purpose of this example is to display an unknown signal in the circuit, and measure the frequency and peak-to-peak voltage of the signal. Carry out the following operation steps for the rapid display of this signal: (1) Set the probe menu attenuation coefficient as 10X and that of the switch in the probe switch as 10X (see "How to Set the Probe Attenuation Coefficient"...

    6.Demonstration (7) Turn the Vertical Scale and Vertical Position knobs, optimizing the waveform. (8) With the elliptical oscillogram method adopted, observe and calculate the phase difference (see Figure 6- 6). The signal must be centered and kept in the horizontal direction. Figure 6- 6 Lissajous Graph Based on the expression sin (q) =A/B or C/D, thereinto, q is the phase difference angle, and the definitions of A, B, C, and D are shown as the graph above.
