Selecting Test Equipment

Automatically or Manually

Use LMF Options from the Tools>Options menu list to select test

equipment automatically (using the autodetect feature) or manually.

A Serial Connection and a Network Connection tab are provided for

test equipment selection. The Serial Connection tab is used when the

test equipment items are connected directly to the LMF computer via a

GPIB box (normal setup). The Network Connection tab is used when

the test equipment is to be connected remotely via a network connection.

Procedure to Manually Select

Test Equipment in a Serial

Connection Tab

Test equipment can be manually specified before, or after, the test

equipment is connected. The LMF does not check to see if the test

equipment is actually detected for manual specification. Follow the

procedure in Table 7-36 to select test equipment manually.
