Remote Programming with Agilent IO Libraries

If you get the "Unable to connect to the instrument. You may need to set the
instrument's controller type to LAN." message:
a On the oscilloscope's front panel, press [Utility]
b In the I/O Menu, press Control.
c Use the Entry knob to point to LAN; then, press Control again to enable the LAN
controller type.
Multiple controller types may be enabled.
While the SCPI Commands applet window lets you enter and remote programming
commands, remote programming for automated test and data acquisition is typically done
using the Agilent IO Libraries, which are separate from the instrument's web interface.
The Agilent IO Libraries let a controller PC communicate with Agilent InfiniiVision
oscilloscopes via their LAN, USB, or, in the case of the 5000/6000 Series oscilloscopes,
GPIB interfaces.
The Automation Ready CD provided with the oscilloscope contains the Agilent IO
Libraries Suite connectivity software to enable communication over these interfaces.
Refer to the instructions provided on the CD-ROM to install this software on your PC. If
you do not have the Automation Ready CD you can download the Agilent IO Libraries
Suite from www.agilent.com/find/iolib.
Information about controlling the oscilloscope through remote commands is contained in
the Programmer's Guide, which is included on the documentation CD supplied with this
oscilloscope. You can also access this document on the Agilent web site.
For more information about connecting to the oscilloscope, refer to the Agilent
Technologies USB/LAN/GPIB Interfaces Connectivity Guide. For a printable electronic
copy of the Connectivity Guide, direct your Web browser to
for Connectivity Guide.
