Inspection and Installation

• If you select VCP, you also need to set the baud rate and other parame-

ters of the virtual serial port, and the baud rate must be the same as the

configuration on the computer side.

• If you select LAN, you also need to set the parameters related to LAN

communication.

2.5.2 LAN Interface

Connect Interface

Use the following steps to quickly connect your instrument to your LAN and con-

figure it. Two typical LAN interface systems are described below: private LAN

and site LAN.

• Connect to the private LAN

A private LAN is a network in which LAN-enabled instruments and com-

puters are directly connected. They are typically small, with no centrally-

managed resources. When connected to a computer, a standard network

cable can be used to connect directly to the computer via the LAN interface.

• Connect to the site LAN

A site LAN is a local area network in which LAN-enabled instruments and

computers are connected to the network through routers, hubs, and/or

switches. They are typically large, centrally-managed networks with services

such as DHCP and DNS servers. When connected to a computer, a network

cable can be used to connect to the router, and the computer is also con-

nected to the router.

• When using one crossover cable to connect PC directly, the gateway address of

the instrument should be consistent with that of the PC, and the IP address

should be at the same network segment with the PC’s IP address.

• When the instrument and computer are connected to the router, an independent

IP address must be assigned for the instrument.
