6.10.9. Ethernet Card Configuration

The optional Ethernet card (Option 63) allows the analyzer to communicate via standard 10BaseT

Ethernet protocol through the COM2 serial port. Refer to Figure and 5-4 for the physical location
of this option.

The card has four LEDs that are visible on the rear panel of the analyzer, indicating its current
operating status.
