Remote Interface Configuration

The instrument supports remote interface communication over two interfaces: USB and LAN.
– USB Interface: Use the rear-panel USB port to communicate with your PC.
– LAN Interface: When shipped, DHCP is on, which may enable communication over LAN. The acronym DHCP
stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to networked
devices. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network.
It is recommended to remove any unused remote interface connection.
Keysight IO Libraries Suite
Ensure that the Keysight IO Libraries Suite is installed before you proceed for the remote interface
configuration.
Keysight IO Libraries Suite is a collection of free instrument control software that automatically discovers
instruments and allows you to control instruments over LAN, USB, GPIB, RS-232, and other interfaces. For more
information, or to download IO Libraries, go to www.keysight.com/find/iosuite.

LAN configuration

The following sections describe the primary front panel LAN configuration functions on the front-panel menu.
LAN configuration can be done from the front panel or through SCPI commands.
After changing the LAN settings, you must save the changes. Press Apply to save the setting. If you do not save
the setting, exiting the I/O Config menu will also prompt you to press Yes to save the LAN setting or No to exit
without saving. Press Yes cycles power to the instrument and activates the settings. LAN settings are non-
volatile, they will not be changed by power cycling or *RST. If you do not want to save your changes, press No
to cancel all changes.
When shipped, DHCP is on, which may enable communication over LAN. The acronym DHCP stands for Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol, a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic
addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network.
Some LAN settings require you to cycle instrument power to activate them. The instrument briefly displays a
message when this is the case, so watch the screen closely as you change LAN settings.
