Connecting Instruments to LAN

Step 5: Configure Your Instruments

Check Your Web Browser

If your instrument is Web-enabled, the instrument includes a Web Server

you can access using a supported Web Browser (Internet Explorer 5.0 or

higher). You can then use your Web Browser and the instrument’s

Web

Pages

to view/modify network configuration parameters as required.

Set/Change TCP/IP Parameters

1 Display the Instrument Welcome Page. To display an instrument’s

Welcome Page, determine the instrument’s IP address from the front

panel display. Then, open your Web Browser. From the Web Browser

address line, type

‘http://<Instrument IP Address>’, where <Instrument

IP Address

> is the IP address displayed on the front panel, and press

Enter to display the instrument’s Welcome Page.

For example, if the instrument’s current IP address is 169.254.3.2

(as displayed on the instrument’s front panel), typing

http://169.254.3.2

and pressing

Enter displays the instrument’s Welcome Page. This figure

shows a typical display for the Agilent 33220A.

NOTE

If your instrument is not Web-enabled or you cannot access the

instrument at its IP address, you must set the TCP/IP parameters from

the instrument’s front panel.
