Hostname
If you do not know the oscilloscope’s hostname you can reset the hostname as follows:
1 Press and release the Reset button (see page 352) on the front panel of the
6000L Series oscilloscope. This will reset the hostname to that which is printed on the
label near the oscilloscope’s power cord connection. The following LAN parameters
will be reset:
• Hostname
• IP address
• Domain name
• VISA address
• Password (see page 287.)
Stand-alone (Point-to-Point) Connection to a PC
The following procedure describes how to establish a point-to-point (stand alone)
connection to the oscilloscope. This is useful if you want to control the oscilloscope
using a laptop computer or a stand-alone computer.
1 Connect your PC to the oscilloscope using a cross-over LAN cable such as Agilent part
number 5061-0701, available on the web at www.parts.agilent.com.
2 Turn on the oscilloscope power. Wait until the LAN connection is configured:
• Press [Utility]&I/O and wait until the LAN status shows “configured”.
• On 6000L Series oscilloscopes, the LAN indicator illuminates green when the LAN
connection is configured.
This may take a few minutes.
Now the instrument is connected and the instrument’s Web interface may be used.
