3-42 Agilent E7501A Getting Started
Using SCPI Interfaces
Using the E7501A SCPI Interface
Enabling a Telnet Connection
Telnet uses a LAN interface along with TCP/IP protocol to communicate
between the Agilent E7501A arbitrary analog signal development system
and the user’s programming environment; each Telnet connection listens on
a unique port address and requires installed and configured networking
software. Telnet requires the IP address of the computer being
communicated with along with the address of the port being listened on by
the E7501A SCPI interface.
To enable a Telnet connection
1. After starting the E7501A SCPI interface and selecting either the
Agilent E7501A or Demo configuration, select the Telnet Enable
checkbox.
(For details on starting the E7501A SCPI Interface and selecting either
the Agilent E7501A or Demo configuration, refer to “Making a
Connection” on page 3-28.)
2. Enter a port number or leave the port set to 23; this is the default value.
3. Select the OK button.
4. The E7501A SCPI Interface Monitor opens and displays information
about the local machine you are using as well as the Telnet connection
that has been enabled.
