Installing the E5810A
Installing and Configuring Agilent IO Libraries Suite
named TCPIP0 is configured when you start or refresh Connection
Expert. To change timeouts and protocol properties for your remote
interface, you must change the properties of this TCPIP interface.
5 If your E5810 is on a different subnet from your client PC, type the
hostname or IP address of the E5810 in the
Remote GPIB interface
dialog box. Change the value in the Interface name on remote host: field,
if necessary, to match the
GPIB SICL Interface Name displayed on the
E5810
Welcome page.
If your E5810 is on the same subnet as your client PC, click Find
Interfaces...
. Then, in the Find Remote GPIB Interfaces dialog, click
Find Now, select your E5810 from the list, and click OK to return to the
Remote GPIB interface dialog box.
6 In the Remote GPIB interface dialog box, click Test connection to check
connectivity to your E5810. If the test is successful, you will see the
message
The interface was successfully opened.
If you leave the check box labeled
Auto-discover instruments connected
to this interface
checked, then when you click OK, Connection Expert
will search for GPIB instruments connected to your E5810 and will send
a
*IDN? (identification) query to each instrument found. You will then
see the new remote GPIB interface and any attached GPIB instruments
in the Connection Expert’s explorer view.
