3 Apply power where appropriate.
4 Use your newly connected equipment as desired; further information, if
desired, is available on the Agilent web site and within VEE Pro 8 Help.
5 Use the E5813A USB ports for remote connection of instruments and
devices to complete your test system. There are no switches to set and
no PC cards to install.
NOTE
The Agilent E5813A Networked 5-port USB hub uses LAN technology to end the
five-meter USB cabling distance limitation, allowing USB devices to be anywhere on a
Local Area Network (LAN). The hub provides remote control and monitoring of native
USB-compatible devices, GPIB instrumentation (using the 82357A) and RS-232
devices (using the E5805A) via a standard LAN connection.
