Setting up the LAN network
The TBS2000B can connect to a LAN network to provide remote access to the
instrument. Handy for classroom work, remotely controlling the oscilloscope,
remote monitoring and analysis of waveforms. Use the procedures in this section
to connect the oscilloscope to a network using a CAT5 Ethernet cable. A separate
section covers configuring the oscilloscope to connect to a Wi-Fi network. See
Setting up the Wi-Fi network on page 157.
Viewing the IP address - Ethernet
Use this procedure to see the oscilloscope IP address and related network
settings. You may need the IP address information to make a connection to the
oscilloscope from a PC running on the network.
1. Push Utility front-panel button.
2. Push the Config side-menu button.
3. Use the Multipurpose knob to select and click Ethernet Config.

you need to set up the oscilloscope for network access, work with your
network administrator to determine how to get an IP address.
