Installing the E5810
Installation Flowchart
You can install the E5810 on an Enterprise (corporate) network that
supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), an Enterprise
network that does not support DHCP, or a Local network.
Installing the E5810
on a DHCP
Enterprise Network
See these sections to install an E5810 on an Enterprise network that
does support DHCP:
 Before You Install the E5810
 Getting Network Information
 Installing the E5810 on an Enterprise Network
 Verifying Instrument Communication
 Installing and Configuring the Agilent IO Libraries
Installing the E5810
on a non-DHCP
Enterprise Network
To install the E5810 on an Enterprise network that does not support DHCP,
you may need to first configure the E5810 on a Local network and then
install the E5810 on the Enterprise network. See these sections to install
an E5810 on an Enterprise network that
does not support DHCP:
 Before You Install the E580
 Getting Network Information
 Configuring the E5810 on a Local Network
 Installing the E5810 on an Enterprise Network
 Verifying Instrument Communication
 Installing and Configuring the Agilent IO Libraries
Installing the E5810
on a Local Network
If you plan to install the E5810 on a Local network, you may not need to
contact your IT department. However, you will need to determine network
parameters. See these sections to install and configure an E5810 on a
Local network:
 Before You Install the E580
 Getting Network Information
 Configuring the E5810 on a Local Network
 Verifying Instrument Communication
 Installing and Configuring the Agilent IO Libraries
NOTE
If you plan to install the E5810 on an Enterprise network, contact your
Information Technology (IT) Department to see if the network supports
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
