Viewing the Instrument Ethernet Address 2-36.
Perform the procedure in Figure 2-28 to view the Instrument Ethernet address.
(See Figure 2-29 for examples.) The network administrator must know the
instrument Ethernet address when the instrument operates on a general network.
You do not need this information when you operate the instrument on an isolated
network. For your convenience, record the Ethernet address inside the rear cover
of this manual.
• Ethernet Address Format The Ethernet address is a 12-digit hexadecimal
number. For example, 00:80:40:12:34:56. The first 6 hexadecimal digits
represent a manufacturer, for example, 00:80:40 represents Fluke
Corporation. The remaining digits are a sequential number assigned during
manufacturing. Ethernet addresses are always unique; they are never altered,
reused, or duplicated.
• Ethernet Address Display The Ethernet address display consists of six 2-
digit segments: Eadr 0 to Eadr 5. In the example above, Eadr0=00, Eadr1=80,
Eadr2=40, Eadr3=12, Eadr4=34, Eadr5=56.
COMM
Press the COMM key to open the communications display because this is a
review process only.
Press the up/down arrow keys until EAdr (Ethernet Address) appears in
the primary display (comm appears in the secondary display).
ENTER
Press the ENTER key. Eadr0 appears in the secondary display, the first 5 digits
of the Ethernet address appears in the primary display (always 00.80.4).
Press the left/right arrow keys to display each byte: Eadr0 (always 00),
Eadr1 (always 80), Eadr2 (always 40), then Eadr3, Eadr4 and Eadr5.
COMM
Press the COMM key again to exit. Record the Ethernet address inside the rear
cover of this manual.
