multimeter. You can specify all parameters and assign a
fixed IP address. You can also assign a dynamic IP address
with the activated DHCP function. Please contact your IT
management to configure the settings properly.
If DHCP is used and the system cannot assign an IP address to the
HMC8012 (for instance, if no Ethernet cable is connected or the
network does not support DHCP), it may take up to three minutes
until a timeout allows the interface to be configured again.
If the device has an IP address, it can be accessed via
web browser at this IP since the Ethernet interface inclu-
des an integrated web server. Enter the IP address in the
browser's address bar (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx). This will
open a window including the instrument type and the serial
number.

9 .3 IEEE 488 .2 / GPIB
In addition to the GPIB functions which are available via
USB TMC class, the HMC8012 is optionally available with
an integrated GPIB interface. This solution is particularly
attractive for customers who already have an existing GPIB
environment. With minimum efforts, an old instrument can
be replaced by a HMC8012 model.
Configure the settings in the HMC8012 for all necessary
parameters after you select IEEE488 as interface and press
the soft menu key Parameter.
The optional IEEE 488 interface (GPIB) can only be factory-fitted
as it is necessary for this purpose to open the instrument and
break the guarantee seal.
