Event log descriptions
Column title Description Example
Displays the date and time that the LAN
trigger occurred in UTC, 24-hour time
Identifies the
N
that
generates an event
LAN1 = lan.trigger[2]
LAN2 = lan.trigger[3]
LAN3 = lan.trigger[4]
LAN4 = lan.trigger[5]
LAN5 = lan.trigger[6]
LAN6 = lan.trigger[7]
Displays the IP address for the device that
generates the LAN trigger
Timestamp
The Series 2600B does not support the
IEEE Std 1588 standard; the values in this
field are always 0 (zero)
Identifies a valid LXI trigger packet
Each instrument maintains independent
sequence counters:
• One for each combination of UDP multicast
network interface and UDP multicast
destination port
•
One for each TCP connection
Displays the LXI domain number; the default
value is 0 (zero)
Contain data about the LXI trigger packet;
values are:
• 1 - Error
• 2 - Retransmission
• 4 - Hardware
• 8 - Acknowledgments
•
The values for this are always 0 (zero)
Accessing the event log from the command interface
You can access the event log from any remote command interface. The event log must be enabled
before LXI trigger events can be viewed. To enable the event log, send:
eventlog.enable = 1
To view the event log from a remote interface, send:
print(eventlog.all())
