11.2.5 Configuring the GPIB Interface
A GPIB interface is integrated on the rear panel of the instrument. You can set the

The submenu for setting the parameters of the remote control interface is dis-
played.

settings can be configured directly in the Windows operating system.

net LAN (local area network). Provided the network administrator has assigned you the
appropriate rights and adapted the Windows firewall configuration, you can use the
interface, for example:
